Drake and Adin Ross recently held a livestream titled Drizzmas on December 26, 2024. The livestream saw the duo give away several prizes, from cash to cars and more. However, the live stream also saw Drake quote Kendrick Lamar's Euphoria lyrics:
“When I see Sexyy I see 2 bad ones!! F**k you talking about”
His quoting of Lamar's lyrics has since then garnered reactions from fans on social media, such as the one below:
"Imma be honest,the boy's still bothered by the beef even after all these months."
Other netizens reacted similarly to the Canadian rapper's quoting of Lamar, with some chalking it up to the fact that the lines are memorable, while others thought there was another reason the rapper had quoted Lamar's lines:
"Kendrick gave everyone quotable lines this year even his biggest haters can’t get it out they head. Akademiks had NLU & Euphoria in his top 3 streamed songs this year. The hate only be online they secretly love Kendrick music." one netizen stated.
"The way Drake just referenced that Kendrick line about Sexyy Red has me analyzing every word choice - there's definitely a deeper message behind this seemingly casual comment." another netizen said.
"Kendrick lives in Drake’s head. I think he has a crush on him. He remembers his lyrics more than us fans. Even got rid of that braid wig. Is it da braids?." one fan commented.
"Drake too real, he not living that pretentious holier than thou life. Great stream, changed lives and no beef going to phase him. Big W." another fan reacted.
"he can't get kendrick outta his head." one commentor opined.
The stream was announced a few days before it was hosted. As mentioned above, the prizes that the rapper and Ross gave away during the live stream:
- Cars for three families
- Lamborghini or G Wagon
- Rent for two people for a year
- $100k for a Toronto-based entrepreneur
- $250k for a dream vacation for a couple
