Steve-O Weighs In on Drake-Lamar Rivalry

Steve-O has publicly declared his preference for Kendrick Lamar over Drake, citing Lamar's 'coolness' during a recent episode of his podcast, where he praised Lamar's latest album, GNX. He contrasted Lamar and André 3000's essence with Drake, asserting that Drake lacks the intangible cool factor. Comedian Marlon Wayans provided a different perspective, likening the lyrical feud to an epic battle and praising both artists for their contributions to hip-hop. He emphasized that while Lamar's approach was unique and impactful, Drake should not feel disheartened by the public's perception of the rivalry. The ongoing feud has also proven financially lucrative, generating over $15.3 million in 2024 from their diss tracks, showing the commercial impact of their rivalry on the music industry. Amidst this backdrop, a heartwarming moment arose when Kendrick performed with former NBA star Baron Davis's son, highlighting the positive connections music can foster.
