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.”
Tbh, both their diss songs are probably the weakest songs I’ve heard from either of them. I’m a fan of both artists but all those songs were trash. I’m used to Drake being petty but I thought Kendrick’s songs were beneath him
Yep. None of that shit will go down in history as a great moment in hip hop. Just another data point on how far we’ve fallen.
CJ from the West Coast, so he was dickriding like all of the people from the Coast. For once, Gillie was telling the truth. It was the most embarrassing “battle” in hip hop history.
Everybody on the west coast is not dickriding Bendrick. Just his crew of producers and whatever hangers on and losers that depend on Bendrick for a check. Game already let you know how he feel. The real king of the west is Ice Cube. He’s not dropping any Drake dis tracks next week. Bendrick has a lot of white fans who hate stream the dis tracks. They love the negative energy.
Man get off this internet talking hard and it’s Kendrick not with a B this social media gave a lot of you weirdos heart stop fucking hating Kendrick went hard and I don’t listen to this new age rap PAC is the goat that’s my era I’ll be 50 in a couple years I grew up out the life I’m a G and now family man so grow up
CJ Stroud fucking bulletproof too? Needs to shut the fuck up about what ain’t his business. Another fucking closet homo most likely since that’s all they have in NFL and NBA now
In that spirit, don’t you also need to shut the fuck up about what ain’t your business?
It’s my business to erase bitches like bendrick that shit in the pool. ain’t no rap beef so stop acting like someone could win this bs. damage is done and if CJ wants to act cute it can get cute for him too. they just jack dudes in Cleveland. In cleveland you don’t just get to make 150m and that’s it. You pay tax especially if you run your mouth.
ahh, you’re from Cleveland, this all makes sense now why you’re dumb as a rock. Got it.
no idiot. this 150m homo is looked at just like that on the streets. He’s nobody hero. Just another mark. So Shut your fucking mouth. Big up the land
Stupid trash like you gives ohio a bad name. Save the culture and sleep delete yourself fool.
Drake Smashed Kendrick. A Battle Is Who Had The Most Bangers …And Drake Won The Most Rounds Kendrick Won The Last Round..KDot Got Put In A Trunk..God Forbid Wen the Beef Start Back Up With ColeWorld Yea It’s Coming . For All U Kendrick Fans 1 word……He Gone Put KDot In Retirement..Light skinned Run The Game Right Now .
Drake’s songs weren’t that good either. Outside of his flow in the middle and last verse of Family Matters, all of that shit was forgettable too. I thought Pushups was an AI song it was so bad.
Diss records isn’t just about the bangers, it’s what was said. True or not true, that’s a rap battle. Drake canceled his Oakland show mid May says it all. Drake music was good before 2018, after that he fallen off musically. You mad cause your boy toy got smoked 😭
These d ik riders be acting like we have to say everything Kendrick drops is great lol
Exactly. Shit was a terrible song. The first time I heard it, I thought that shit was a fake song with that Yamaha keyboard beat from Mustard, and these fools out here TikToking to this bullshit and all kinds of dumb shit. I said it a few years ago when Cardi B blew up, it’s not about music anymore. People support whoever they personally like regardless if the music is hot or not. Gillie told the truth and you got people cutting his head off for being real about the songs.
Man I’m a 70s baby come from the real hip hop era and Kendrick and Cole bout the only 2 rappers I listen to in this era I’m from Denver Colorado we love that west coast sound out there we love bars metaphors shit make u think and Kendrick delivered and the icing on the cake was not like us straight c walking banger I swear this generation is so use to trash that’s all the vibe to 2pac my goat hip hop died with PAC and Big cuz if drake y’all main artist y’all lost cuz he tradh
Ive heard Gillies music and dude is a joke. If you are commenting on music and you make garbage raps then it holds no weight. Thank God for hot takes and podcasting bc dude was like the 4th best on Major Figgaz 🤣
