As the rap world continues to dissect every word in the ongoing feud between Drake and Kendrick Lamar, a new narrative has emerged surrounding Drake's 2020 hit, "POPSTAR," featuring DJ Khaled. Fans have begun speculating whether certain lyrics in the song could be interpreted as references to Kendrick Lamar's wife, Whitney Alford.
In particular, lines like "Just pulled up to Whitney Houston, Texas for the evening" have raised eyebrows among listeners. Some argue that this could be a veiled nod to Whitney Alford, given the coincidence of her sharing a name with the late Whitney Houston, famous for her role in "The Bodyguard" alongside Kevin Costner. Adding to the intrigue, Drake's previous track, "Push Ups," includes a line about being with bodyguards like Whitney, further fueling speculation about intentional references.
Drake's lyrical prowess and penchant for wordplay leave room for interpretation, with fans dissecting every verse for hidden meanings. However, the Toronto rapper is notorious for keeping fans guessing and is unlikely to provide clarification anytime soon.
Meanwhile, Kendrick Lamar has seized the spotlight with his own contribution to the feud, releasing the scathing diss track "Euphoria," which has earned him rave reviews. The track pulls no punches in targeting Drake, adding another layer of tension to the ongoing rivalry between the two hip-hop heavyweights.
