Shaquille O'Neal posts hilarious altered image of Drake in bikini amid Kendrick Lamar feud

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: NBA legend Shaquille O’Neal added another layer of drama to the already ongoing rap battle between Drake and Kendrick Lamar. 

While Drake and Lamar have been engaged in the feud for months, Shaq stepped into the fight with a suggestive social media post featuring the Canadian rapper. 

Taking to his Instagram Story, Shaq uploaded an altered photo of the ‘God’s Plan’ singer clad in a bikini. In the background, he set the song ‘BBLN Drizzy’ - a diss track produced by Metro Boomin. per Marca.

Shaquille O’Neal makes his stand clear

Amid the ongoing feud between Drake and Lamar, such a post made Shaq’s allegiance clear. 

While he has not directly mentioned his support, from the image used it is evident that he is choosing Lamar Kendrick over Drake. 

Moreover, the song of his choice provides further evidence as the diss track by Boomin works on the unsavory claim initially made by Rick Ross that the ‘Rich Baby Daddy’ singer has had a Brazilian Butt Lift. 

After Booming released his track in May, Drake too fired back with his song ‘Push Ups’ where he sang, "Metro shut your hoe ass up and make some drums."

Fans are left in splits at the altered picture

The internet was left in splits as the flabbergasted fans took to social media to voice their shock at the photoshopped picture.

One of the fans said, "Shaq is outta pocket for this. Drake just can't catch a break 😂😂😂."

Someone else chimed in, "Shaq might as well come on out 'cause after he bent Kevin Hart over in Husbands of Hollywood that told me everything."

"This is kinda weird not gonna lie. Not sure how to take this really…," commented another netizen.

Another social media user said, "Shaq hopping on the hate bandwagon to try and stay relevant 🤣🤣🤣🤣."

Someone else on=bserved, "Has anybody had a worse year in 2024 than Drake??"

Another fan quipped, "This is ridiculous and also funny as hell. It’s so disturbing that I need to bleach my eyes. Why did Shaq do this?? Why god why?"

A brief history of the feud between Drake and Kendrick Lamar

While Drake and Lamar collaborated as early as 2010, their relationship soured over time. In 2013, Lamar called out Drake in his song 'Control' by Big Sean.

However, after that, there was relative peace until it blew out of proportion in May when Lamar dissed J. Cole and Drake on 'Like That'. 

J Cole claimed on 'First Person Shooter' that he, Drake, and Lamar were the 'Big Three' of hip hop. Following a lot of back-and-forths, the critics and fans have sided with Lamar and declared him the winner.
