YG is considering being mentioned by name.

YG refrained from participating in the Drake vs. Kendrick Lamar match. In fact, he was one of the few West Coast artists who refrained from voicing his opinions. The issue was that he was mentioned by name in the Drake diss track “Family Matters.” The Six God used the rapper from Compton to disparage Lamar by saying that while YG had a great set, Lamar hadn’t. It was a really insignificant statement that placed YG in the same category as other musicians. Not a huge thing, is it? The rapper from Compton apparently had some feelings about it.

In his recently released tune “Weird,” YG seems to allude to the fact that he was, well, mentioned. The hints he leaves out imply that he was offended by Drake drawing him into a conflict that was unrelated to him. In particular, when it was a fight with another artist from the West Coast. On the song, “When it’s smoke, don’t ever mention my name (mention my name),” he raps. “You gon’ have me jeopardizin’ my fame, jeopardizin’ the gang, jeopardizin’ where you hang, n**ga.” Although the rapper doesn’t specifically name anyone, it doesn’t take much detective work to piece the story together.

YG Calls Out Drake For Referencing Him In A Diss

YG and Drake have had a long collaborative history together. Drake appeared on the single “Who Do You Love?” from his 2014 debut, My Krazy Life. The single peaked at 54 on the Billboard Hot 100, making it the second-biggest release from the album. YG and Drake teamed back up for “Why You Always Hatin?” in 2016, which peaked at number 62. YG also served as the opening act for the Drake vs. Lil Wayne tour, which took place the same year. As friendly as the two rappers have been over the years, YG’s bond with Kendrick Lamar supersedes it.

Both rappers hail from Compton, and rap about similar subject matter. YG praised Lamar as a rapper and as a collaborator during an MTV interview from over a decade ago. “It’s A-1 to be able to get somebody like that on my record,” he told the outlet. “I knew Kendrick before I blew up, he knew me before he blew up and be rocking with what I was doin’ and I been rocking with what they was doin’ so it’s all love and respect.” It’s also worth noting that Mustard, YG’s longtime friend and collaborator, produced K. Dot’s Drake diss and number one single, “Not Like Us.” The rapper was also going to side with the West.
