Rap sensation Drake has had a rough go of things lately.
The entire summer saw Drake getting made fun of by fans after rival rapper Kendrick Lamar’s hit song “Not Like Us” bashed him. Among those who participated in Lamar’s campaign? Sacramento Kings guard DeMar DeRozan, who made a cameo in the song’s music video.
It appears Drake saw the video and isn’t happy about it. The Kings recently traveled to Drake’s hometown Toronto to face the Toronto Raptors. Drake sat courtside at the game, and a video is making the rounds that appears to show Drake sending a clear message to DeRozan.
“F**k outta here, p***y,” Drake appears to say in the clip.

It’s a shockingly brutal message for the rapper to send to DeRozan, considering he spent the majority of his career with the Raptors, and the pair were previously considered good friends. Fans weighed in on the situation on social media.
“Waited for Derozan to pass by, then whispered it,” one fan said on Twitter.
“K-Dot really made Drake go back on picking on NBA players instead of Rappers,” one fan added.
“Drake continuing to handle all of this stuff the wrong way,” one fan added.
“Drake better watch out DeMar really affiliated,” one fan added, noting DeRozan’s affiliations with Compton, California.
“Drake pushing 40 doing this,” one fan added.
“Drake thinks real life is movie set,” one fan added.
Things have become downright embarrassing for Drake at this point. Hopefully, he finds the power to move on from the situation and his career sooner rather than later.
