Drake has made it clear that his thoughts on DeMar DeRozan have not changed at all since last year’s “Not Like Us” spat.
Drizzy is currently in Australia on his Anita Max Win tour, where he hit Sydney on Sunday night (February 16).

At one point, a fan threw a jersey on stage and the OVO star happily picked it up – but once he realized it was a DeRozan jersey, he immediately punted it right back to the crowd.
The look on his face also said it all, as Drizzy appeared disgusted at the piece of clothing.

Drake and DeMar DeRozan were previously close when the NBA star was playing for the Toronto Raptors for many years. But last June, he appeared in Kendrick Lamar’s “Not Like Us” video and graced the stage at the Compton rapper’s Pop Out concert, which quickly threw a wedge between the pair.
DeRozan later explained his allegiance to Kendrick in an interview with The Breakfast Club, though he admitted that he has love for both K.Dot and Drake.

“At the end of the day, I’m from Compton. My city, where I’m from, where I was born, where my family still lives, that comes first before anything,” he said.
“I feel like any real person would understand that. It’s so crazy because my second home became Toronto, that has one of the greatest [rappers] of all time coming from there too.”

Then in November, DeRozan, who currently suits up for the Kings, made his first appearance in Canada since his Kendrick moments when his team played the Raptors.
During the game, Drake could be seen staring down DeRozan from his courtside seat – and he had some words for him during a post-game interview.
“If you ever put up a DeRozan banner, I’ll go up there and pull it down myself,” he told Canadian sports network TSN. “Unfortunately, we’re playing this goof tonight, but it is what it is.”
Asked after the first game about the 6 God’s pledge to tear down his hypothetical banner, DeRozan said: “He’s gonna have a long way to climb, I’ll tell you that.”

He later posted a clip from the movie Friday on his Instagram Stories of Chris Tucker’s character comically saying he only gets tough when neighborhood menace Deebo’s back is turned.
