Lil Baby has shared his thoughts on the mention of his name in Kendrick Lamar’s hit song, Not Like Us.
Lil Baby, before his two 2025 albums, organized a massive press run, following two revealing and compelling conversations, the first one being with Lil Yachty on his A Safe Place podcast, and the other was with Charlamagne Tha God.
For the latter, The Breakfast Club‘s cohost sought to find out from the Atlanta rapper about Kendrick Lamar name-dropping him on his Drake diss “Not Like Us,” as Baby was one of a few Atlanta MCs that he accused Drizzy of “colonizing.”
“I ain’t really into, like, that side of hip-hop,” Lil Baby revealed concerning Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” name-drop. “So I don’t really… You know. [Me and Drake have a] great relationship. Great relationship. It’s just with any situation, like, if you and him was arguing, why the hell you gon’ say me, you know? I don’t be having nothing to do with it. […] To me, like, rap and s**t be my work. It’s, like, I don’t want that type of s**t at work.”

His response immediately gives the impression that he doesn’t want to take a side between Kendrick Lamar and Drake, although he mentions his great relationship with the latter.
Moreover, he also succeeded in creating the impression he wanted nothing to do with that battle, as it was none of his business and he didn’t ask for any blowback.
In an earlier report, we shared that the beef between Kendrick Lamar and Drake caused a stir in the world of music and entertainment. There are still plenty of unanswered questions to ponder.
Moreover, one aspect of the battle that people would love to learn more about is the actual recording process behind these songs, as they came out so quickly and with a lot of big names attached in the studio.
Thanks to engineer Nicolas de Parcel, K. Dot’s mastering engineer for his disses, we now have more of an idea of how it all went down. He spoke to EngineEars (founded by Kendrick collaborator MixedByAli) and revealed how intense and exciting these sessions were.
