“Following Drake’s loss to Kendrick Lamar in their widely-discussed battle, there’s been no shortage of banter aimed at the Toronto rapper.
The most recent addition to the chorus is O’Shea Jackson Jr., son of Ice Cube, who playfully mocked an older GQ photo of Drake posing with his finger pointed like a gun.
“Is he aiming with the wrong eye or am I seeing things?” Jackson quipped alongside the image.
Is he using the wrong eye to aim or am I trippin? https://t.co/gwp7bVPJkc

Lady. Leave me alone. I don’t care about engagement. My page isn’t monetized. I don’t get paid by Twitter. I am just a man who talks about whatever he wants to.

The last time we spoke you said Kendrick was my black messiah and Ive never called him that in my life.
Be mad at… https://t.co/EtxGdFOqlc
Later, when someone accused him of using Drake’s popularity for attention, Jackson responded firmly, stating, “I’m not interested in clicks. My social media isn’t monetized, and I’m not paid by Twitter. I’m simply expressing my thoughts. Besides, the last time we spoke, you claimed Kendrick was my idol, which couldn’t be further from the truth. Take your gripes to Kendrick, not me.”
What’s your take on Jackson’s jesting at Drake’s expense in light of that photo?”
