According to his close collaborator Gordo, Drake apparently didn’t break a sweat throughout his feud with Kendrick Lamar and was even very happy during that time.
The producer (née Carnage) is gearing up to release his new album Diamante on Friday (July 26), which will feature new verses from Drizzy. While talking to People about their relationship, Gordo said his son has gotten over the feud and is “very happy” — despite what the internet might guess.
“He’s over it,” Gordo said. “The thing is he just went on the longest tour ever. He was really on tour for about a year. I think he was just chilling.
He continued, “Since this all happened…I see him being happier,” the producer shared. “It’s really weird. He’s so happy…and the internet is like, ‘Oh, that picture, he’s sad, it’s bad.’ “It was just a bad photo taken with a bad camera. But because it was him, it was put under a magnifying glass and it was like, ‘Oh, look at his eyes. He looks a little listless. He’s not asleep yet.’ But said To be honest, this guy was so happy.
While Drizzy may be a thing of the past, the rest of the world is still hyping it up — and it’s now spilling over into video games.
The drama began last week when Kendrick’s chart-topping song “Not Like Us” was reimagined as a music video by developer Richie Branson (no relation to the British billionaire) A computer game.
The 8-bit game’s soundtrack features an arcade-style version of Mustard-produced beats, allowing users to play as K.Dot and hit an owl with a stick – a nod to the piñata scene in the song’s accompanying video.
A few days later, a video game based on Drake’s own diss song “Family Matters” was created in response, with the developer taking a jab at Branson’s “Not Like Us” game in the process.
“Made by some real people to prove a point. That game that doesn’t look like us is garbage. KBot backdoors Kendrick’s Spotify and the like, haha,” the end credits read, referring to Kendrick’s use of a bot to improve “Not” Like Us” traffic unsubstantiated rumors.
The game “Family Matters” challenges players to aim as many Grammys as possible at Kendrick’s mouth, inspired by Drizzy’s lyrical sarcasm in his rap track: “Kendrick just opened his mouth and now someone’s giving him a Grammy .
Branson’s 8-bit fury intensified after he caught wind of the game, teasing another game inspired by Kendrick’s early diss song “Meet the Grahams” on social media, firing back at the anonymous German Lake fan.
“[S]Should I respond with a game of “Meet the Grahams” or not? lmao,” he joked on X.
