Gillie Da Kid got called out by NFL star CJ Stroud for crowning Drake as the winner in his rap beef with Kendrick Lamar.
During his recent appearance on Gillie and Wallo’s Million Dollaz Worth of Game podcast, the Houston Texans’ quarterback had some words for “Unc” regarding what he deemed an incorrect assessment of the battle royale.

“You said that last diss wasn’t better! I’ma check you right now, Unc,” CJ said. “You tripping. We know you want the [Drake] interview.”
“This is the misconception,” Gillie fired back. “Bro, whether we interview someone or not, our checks still the same […] Let’s talk facts. The first two diss records from Kendrick was just … eh.”

The athlete then replied: “Then the last one — he turned the whole city up! But after it came out, you said Drake winning. And I rock with Drake. Drake probably one of the hardest out. You can’t take away what Drake did. Kendrick too — I fuck with both of them. […] But just like football, if we lost, we lost.”
Ultimately, Gillie did agree that Kendrick’s “Not Like Us” was a true game changer, though he made it clear that he still rocks with both artists.

Following the release of the last song in the battle (for now), “The Heart Part 6” by Drake, Gillie Da Kid uploaded an Instagram post backing Drizzy in the battle and declaring him the winner.
“It’s over with! Light-skinned n-ggas won. They took that shit, man. That shit over with, man. Kendrick can’t come back,” he said confidently.
“When he came back again [with ‘Not Like Us’], I said, ‘Oh, he barbecue baked, honey-dipped, glazed, basted, seasoned the light-skinned n-ggas’ and then Drake just … [laughs] It’s over with, the light-skinned n-ggas won.”
Gillie was slammed by many in the comments section for his hot take, with one person writing: “Gillie really losing all credibility.”

“You’re embarrassing Philly bruh,” another wrote, while a third person added: “I’m bout to unfollow this ball hugger.”
Others accused the rapper-turned-podcaster of attempting to curry favor with Drake. To that point, fellow Hip Hop media personality Ebro Darden wrote: “Man I hope Gillie get that interview.”
