Kendrick Lamar to Perform in Drake’s Hometown for the First Time Since Onset of Feud

  • Kendrick Lamar will take the stage at the Rogers Centre in Toronto on Thursday evening for two shows, as part of his Grand National Tour.
  • This marks Lamar's first Toronto appearance since his public feud with Canadian rapper Drake began last summer, which has evolved into a legal dispute.
  • Drake has filed a defamation lawsuit against Universal Music Group, alleging that the promotion of Kendrick Lamar's track "Not Like Us" contains false accusations that damage his reputation and threaten his safety.
  • Universal calls the lawsuit a baseless attack on Lamar's creative and commercial success, while Drake fans plan an 'OVO Takeover' near the venue to 'show Kendrick whose city this is' with 'no hate, no drama, just pure Toronto energy.'
  • Lamar's performances alongside R&B artist SZA, on the Grand National Tour, occur amid ongoing tension but may highlight continuing rivalry dynamics in the Toronto music scene.
