Drake Actually Disagree with LeBron James: Was Drake so mean when he said that King James is “Not Kobe to Us”? What you need to know about the beef brewing is right here!
Alright, not at all! LeBron James was not targeted by Drake when he said, “You not Kobe to us.” ‘Stories About My Brother,’ the said track, was released in November of 2023. However, given the continued hostility between Drake and Kendrick Lamar, it is understandable why fans would draw that conclusion!
In case you missed it, there is a tweet going viral that purports Drake made fun of King James in his lyrics. It is getting folks excited!
That is how you are going to discover that you are not Kobe Bryant to us, according to the aforementioned sentence. Man, you are nothing like Kobe Bryant to us.” Some fans think that Drake was making fun of LeBron James with this. Considering that LeBron James, Coby White, James Harden, Russell Westbrook, and DeMar DeRozan were all sighted at Kendrick Lamar’s “Pop Out and Show” performance in Los Angeles last month, it is not entirely unbelievable. Some fans have concluded that LeBron has taken a stance in the Lamar-Drake dispute as a result of this.
Did Drake Actually Disagree with LeBron James in His Song by Rapping
Some contend that LeBron supported Lamar even before their dispute ever started! It seems as though LeBron had already made his decision before the turmoil involving Drake, J. Cole, and Kendrick Lamar intensified this year. The NBA player might have unintentionally taken a side long before diss songs like “Not Like Us,” “Push Ups,” or “Family Matters” became popularity.

In his 2013 song “Control,” Kendrick Lamar mentioned a number of rappers, including Drake and J. Cole. Even if it did not start a full-fledged rap fight at the time, it did pave the way for some friendly rivalry. LeBron spoke out in favour of Lamar on X (formerly Twitter).
“This is real hip hop at his best!” LeBron sent a tweet. “@kendricklamar put them in a tight spot. People, we are going nuts over here!”
LeBron continued to like Drake and Kendrick Lamar songs even after sending that tweet; he frequently posted Instagram Stories of himself grooving to their music. He even went on stage with Drake to perform “Sicko Mode.”
But it appears that LeBron has finally made up his mind after all, since he was seen enjoying himself greatly at a Kendrick Lamar show just before the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris. He was observed dancing to “Not Like Us” during the performance, which is regarded as a clear jab at Drake.
This is real hip hop at his best! @kendricklamar boxed em into a corner. We going crazy over here people!!

Returning to the notion that Drake is criticizing LeBron, let me clarify that the song “Stories About My Brother,” which has received a lot of attention online, is not about LeBron James. Before LeBron was asked to choose a side by fans, it was released. It is a diss track, even though it is not directed against LeBron.
The background is that Drake has been resentful of rapper-turned-podcaster Joe Budden since 2016, the year that Budden called Drake’s album Views “bored.”
They have since exchanged barbs on social media, and Drake made it plain that he could not give a damn about Budden’s viewpoint in the song “Stories About My Brother”: “Imagine us gettin’ our validation from an ex-musician searching’ for recognition,” he raps. Drake’s ‘Stories About My Brother’ is not one of his more memorable diss tunes, which is why fewer people are aware of it, even with the excellent production from Conductor Williams and Jimmy Q. Thus, the confusion!
