Kendrick Lamar tried to shame Drake and the rest of the OVOers into not hanging out with Baka Not Nice.
“Baka got a weird case, why is he around? / Certified Lover Boy? Certified pedophiles,” K. Dot rapped on”Not Like Us,” referencing Baka serving time for being a violent pimp.
It didn’t work.
Drake is still at the top of the charts, and Baka is still around.
Drake explained why he kept Baka around in 2015 after the now-45-year-old was released from prison.
“When [he] got out of jail there was a lot of different paths he could’ve took and he decided to focus on music,” Drake said.
Before his incarnation, Baka was Drake’s security guard. After he got out, Drake signed him to his label as a rapper.
