Drake‘s father Dennis Graham has reacted to Kendrick Lamar‘s hit diss track “Not Like Us” making history at the Grammys.
Following the awards show on Sunday night (February 2), 70-year-old Graham, himself a former musician, was asked by the TikTok account @joy.of.everything about his thoughts on Kendrick’s incendiary song winning Record of the Year.

“I don’t care nothing about that shit,” he responded. “That ain’t got nothing to do with me. All the best to him, man. I don’t do that bullshit.”
Drake, who is currently out of the country preparing for an Australian tour, has yet to respond himself.

It was a bruising night for those on Team Drake as Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” won all five awards it was nominated for, including Record of the Year, Song of the Year, Best Rap Song, Best Rap Performance and Best Music Video.
It’s the first diss track to win a Grammy and the most decorated rap song in Grammys history, while Kendrick is just the second rapper to win both Record of the Year and Song of the Year — two of the “Big Four” prizes — following Childish Gambino.

The Compton rapper appeared to aim another dig at Drizzy during the ceremony by wearing a denim jacket and matching pair of jeans, what’s known as a Canadian tuxedo.
The apparent sartorial jab didn’t go unnoticed by viewers at home, with one person writing on social media: “Damn this shit is comedy. Kendrick’s Trolling is ELITE.”
Fellow rapper JPEGMAFIA was also amused, tweeting: “LMFAO Kendrick is funny AF. He accepted his award for the greatest diss song of all time. in a CANADIAN TUXEDO.”
Further salt was rubbed into Drake’s wound as Beyoncé, Taylor Swift and many others were seen dancing and rapping along to “Not Like Us” in the audience as Kendrick’s wins were announced.
