Baka Not Nice Talks Drake’s Wisdom That Helped Him Avoid Responding to Kendrick Lamar’s Diss

In a recent interview with Hot Freestyle, Baka Not Nice, the OVO Sound rapper, opened up about how Drake talked him off the ledge when it came to Kendrick Lamar’s taunts on “Not Like Us.” For those who’ve been following the beef, you already know Kendrick took shots at Baka, referring to his controversial past and even calling him out by name. But Baka revealed that instead of reacting impulsively, he listened to Drizzy and let the noise die down.

Baka explained his initial reaction was to respond fast—straight fire, no hesitation. “Where I come from, you don’t just let someone call you out without backing it up. That’s crazy,” he said, referring to Kendrick’s bar about his criminal history. “It’s insane seeing people celebrate these accusations like they’re true.”

He admitted the pressure built up as the diss got attention, but then came the call from Drake. “Drake hit me up and told me, ‘Yo, I know how you feel, but don’t let this mess with you. It’s all noise,’” Baka recalled. Drake’s words hit him like a light bulb. The message was clear: don’t let the fake drama cloud your judgment. “They’re not even real people out there, just bots,” Drake said.

Baka took that advice to heart. He dismissed Kendrick’s claims, calling them “ridiculous” and pointing out the absurdity of making accusations without solid proof. “You gotta have your paperwork before talking wild like that,” he stated firmly.

For Baka, the situation wasn’t just about ego—it was about protecting his reputation and his family. He spoke on how making baseless accusations can have lasting effects, and the importance of setting the record straight, especially when you have a kid in the mix.

When it came to Kendrick’s infamous line—”Baka got a weird case, why is he around?”—Baka didn’t flinch. He explained the situation, referencing his past legal troubles, where a case against him was dropped after the woman involved refused to testify. “At the end of the day, they’ll figure it out,” Baka said, adding that people will eventually realize the whole situation was fabricated.

Baka wrapped things up with a message to the world: “Y’all need to get it together. Throwing out serious accusations without facts ain’t the move. Always have the paperwork. That’s rule number one.”

At the end of the day, Baka Not Nice’s decision to take the high road was a lesson in maturity, and as always, Drake was there to offer the wisdom that helped him avoid the chaos.
