During the livestream on Kick, Ross was reading out comments from fans, one of whom inquired about an album by referring to Drizzy as "Unc," seemingly a short form for uncle.

Ross: Someone said, where's the album Unc? Where is your album?
Drizzy: First of all, f*ck you.
Ross: Me? Oh him!
Drizzy: I don't know both of y'all!
The clip of Drake's reaction to being called "unc" quickly went viral. Fans took to X to react, with many mocking Champagne Papi. One X user said:

Netizens reacted to the surfaced clip on the social media platform.
"he said "call me bro,"" a fan joked.
"Bro mad he not his types age," another user jibed.
"Bro 40 and mad about unc? He like em young fr," a netizen added.
Fans continued to poke fun at Drizzy's reaction:
"Isnt unc a good thing?," an X user asked.
"Drake gone be devastated when he realizes he’s a 40-year-old man," another fan chimed in.
"You 38 showing up as a 8 year old," another user remarked.

Drake refuses to read "f*ck Kendrick" comment by fan during livestream with Adin Ross
During a livestream with Adin Ross, Drake refused to read a comment that included a f-word alongside Kendrick Lamar. The Toronto-based artist had a rap feud with Lamar between March and May of this year.
In a clip from the Kick livestream on December 26, a fan wrote, "f*ck Kendrick." While reading the comment, Drizzy said:
"Oh, I am not reading that."
Lamar's feud with Drake began in March 2024, after he seemingly took a dig at the Toronto rapper and J. Cole in his verse on Future and Metro Boomin's hit track, Like That. In his verse, Kendrick Lamar alluded to J. Cole's claim that he, Drizzy, and Cole were the "big three" of the hip-hop industry in his song First Person Shooter.
Lamar seemingly responded to J. Cole's claim and rapped:
"Think I won't drop the location? I still got PTSD/ Motherf*ck the big three, ni**a, it's just big me."
Kendrick Lamar's dig began a months-long feud with Drake, with both taking multiple shots at each other with diss tracks. Champagne Papi responded to Lamar's verse in Like That with the diss tracks Push Ups and Taylor Made Freestyle.
The rap feud continued as Lamar responded with tracks like Euphoria and 6:16 in LA. Drizzy also did not step back and supposedly accused Kendrick Lamar of domestic violence in his track, Family Matters. K Dot also name-dropped and accused Drizzy of alleged p*dophilia and disrespecting West Coast hip-hop in his tracks Meet the Grahams and Not Like Us.
"Say, Drake, I hear you like 'em young/You better not ever go to cell block one/ To any b!tch that talk to him and they in love/ Just make sure you hide your lil' sister from him," Lamar rapped in Not Like Us.
The rap battle supposedly ended on May 5, 2024, after Drake released The Heart Part 6 in response to Lamar's accusations. However, the two have continued to diss each other through various other actions. In June, Kendrick Lamar hosted a Pop Out Show in honor of West Coast hip-hop culture. During the concert, K Dot performed many of the diss tracks aimed at Drizzy, including Not Like Us, which he performed six times.
In one of the latest developments in the Kendrick Lamar vs. Drake battle, the Toronto rapper filed two lawsuits against Universal Music Group (UMG) and Spotify for allegedly using unfair means to boost streaming of Lamar's Not Like Us. He accused UMG of falsely boosting its sales and failing to prevent its release despite the song allegedly containing false accusations against him.
Both UMG and Spotify have denied Drizzy's allegations.
