The beef never ends.
For his halftime performance at the Super Bowl 2025, Kendrick Lamar, 37, wore a diamond lower-case “A” chain, which many believe was a dig at the “Passionfruit” artist, 38, in the musicians’ ongoing feud.
Some fans are convinced the necklace was in reference to Lamar’s now-viral “A minor” lyric in his diss track “Not Like Us,” which accused Drake of pursuing young girls.
The song gained so much momentum it scored the rapper five Grammys last weekend, including record of the year, best rap performance, best rap song, best music video and song of the year.
“Kendrick smiled right into the camera saying Drake, wore a lowercase a chain and had Serena? That man is a whole super villain. 😂 #SuperBowl#KendrickBow,” one person wrote on X (formerly Twitter).
Another said, “Not the a minor necklace Kendrick 😭😭😭”
A third user added, “Kendrick’s A necklace is for A MINORRRRRRR”
However, the “Humble” rapper may not have been making a statement with his bling; the pendant could be the logo from the Compton-born rapper’s communications company, pgLang — though it’s yet to be confirmed.
Elsewhere in his performance outfit, the 37-year-old, who was styled by Taylor McNeill, rocked a pair of flared jeans from Celine Homme, which look straight out of the early aughts.
Lamar topped off the look with a custom blue leather Martine Rose varsity jacket.
According to his stylist’s Instagram Story, the coat featured archival sports paneling and custom embroideries. Meanwhile, the “Gloria” detail across his chest was a nod to the song of the same name from his latest album, “GNX.”
He added to the piles of bling with a diamond brooch by Rahaminov pinned to his cap worth $68,000.
If Lamar was indeed sending a subliminal message with his diamonds, it wouldn’t be the first time he subtly shaded Drake with his outfit in recent days.
At the Grammys last week, the rapper wore a Canadian tuxedo look from Maison Margiela, which had fans theorizing was a jab at his foe, who is from Toronto.
The pair’s continuing battle has been going on for well over a decade, originating when Lamar first dissed the Canadian artist in Big Sean’s 2013 song “Control.”
Over the years, they’ve consistently taken digs at one another in their respective music — however, things blew up last year when Lamar released his Grammy-winning “Not Like Us” track.
It seems the feud is far from over.
