Drake and LeBron James have been friends for years, often spotted together at games and concerts. Recently, however, rumors surfaced suggesting a possible rift between the Canadian rapper and the LA Lakers star. The speculation began when LeBron James showed support for Kendrick Lamar’s song “Not Like Us” on social media. Fans wondered if this was causing tension with Drake.
Joe Budden addressed the rumored conflict on a recent episode of his podcast. Budden acknowledged the tension but noted that it may not be as significant as some believe, but he suggested that the tension might be linked to LeBron’s wife, Savannah.
“The passive-aggressive LeBron-Drake beef is interesting to me. It’s real; it’s happening. Savannah might just really love that shirt, and I don’t speak about people’s wives, but she might just really love that shirt, brand, and Kendrick, and ain’t paying what y’all doing no mind,” Budden said.
“LeBron posing in the picture the way he did with her in the shirt tells me that he saw the Drake post. All the Olympians that were not LeBron, they’ve been going back and forth since this ‘Not Like Us’ sh*t. And it’s interesting to me,” he added.
