Tennis legend Serena Williams has retaliated against rapper Drake, calling Kendric Lamar’s latest diss song, “Not Like Us,” the hit song of the summer.
For years, the public has been fascinated by Serena Williams’ and Drake’s prickly relationship.
Drake’s 2022 winter album release landed a direct hit on Serena Williams’ husband, Alexis Ohanian.
The 37-year-old rapped on the song, “Sidebar, Serena, your husband a groupie / He claim we don’t got a problem but / No, boo, it is like you comin’ for sushi.”
Following Drake’s apparent jab, Williams’s husband responded on Twitter.
He wrote, “The reason I stay winning is because I’m relentless about being the absolute best at whatever I do — including being the best groupie for my wife & daughter.”
Before Drake feuded with Serena Williams and Kendrick Lamar, he was feuding with Common in the early 2010s’. Why?
Common revealed the feud stemmed from Drake dating his ex-girlfriend, Serena Williams. The tennis star and Common dated between 2007 and 2010.
In 2011, Drake and Serena Willaims sparked romance rumors after he was spotted in the spectator area during Williams’ matches. Later, in August 2015, they were photographed getting cozy in a Cincinnati restaurant.
Drake’s issues with Serena Williams resurfaced after Kendrick Lamar called Drake out on his fourth diss track to the Canadian rapper.
The diss song “Not Like Us” is produced by West Coast producer Mustard and features K. Dot labeling OVO members and associates “pedophiles” while insisting Drake has a penchant for young women.
The song has been a success since its release. Kendrick Lamar performed it eight times at his “The Pop Out” concert in NY and filmed an official music video in his native Compton.
However, Serena’s latest co-sign shows she has not forgotten or forgiven Drake’s insult to her husband.
In the video, Serena Williams’s face lights up as she talks about how she feels about Kendrick Lamar’s diss track to Drake.
“Ermmm, I love that song. It’s the hit of the summer. When they play that jam, oh, I’m jamming,” the Olympian stated while smiling broadly.
Of course, the internet is already full of speculation. Fans are waiting to see how Drake reacts to Williams’ jab or if he will respectfully ignore it.
This summer has just become much more interesting!
