DeMar DeRozan, the NBA star who once played for the Toronto Raptors, says things are all good between him and Drake even though he made an appearance in Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” video.
“Drake’s still my man, still my man, none of it changed,” he told The Sacramento Bee.
“It’s so easy to get overlooked and look at it for what it looks like, but at the end of the day it’s music, entertainment. Two of the biggest rappers in the world went at it from a competitive standpoint and they battled it out,” he added. “That’s what you want to see as a fan: Kobe [Bryant] playing [Michael] Jordan one-on-one and see who wins, see the trash talking, and whoever wins out of that, you’re still going to have the debate, so that’s all that is.”
DeRozan previously shared that he is originally from Compton and he and Kendrick Lamar went to schools very close to each other, saying that K.Dot is like family to him.
DeRozan says that he would be a part of whatever K.Dot asked to “without a thought.”
