NASCAR Drivers Caught in the Kendrick Lamar vs. Drake Feud—Without Even Knowing It

NASCAR Drivers Caught in the Kendrick Lamar vs. Drake Feud—Without Even Knowing It

Kyle Larson sits and has a chat with Alex Bowman during the Daytona 500 Pole Qualifying at Daytona International Speedway on Wednesday, Feb.12, 2025.

The Kendrick Lamar vs. Drake feud has taken over music, pop culture, and now—NASCAR. In a sport where rivalries fuel the action, it was only a matter of time before drivers got pulled into one of hip-hop’s most heated battles.

Kendrick’s explosive Super Bowl LIX performance, seen by a record-breaking 133.5 million viewers, reignited his long-running beef with Drake—especially with the subtle drop of the diss track “Not Like Us”. And while music fans dissected every lyric, NASCAR found a way to make it their own.

The league put its drivers in the hot seat with a simple challenge: Pick a side—Kendrick or Drake? What followed was a hilarious display of confusion, commitment, and outright cluelessness.

Some Drivers Had No Clue Who Kendrick Lamar Was

In a lighthearted “choose a cone” activity filmed by NASCAR and posted on Instagram, drivers had to physically step toward either Kendrick Lamar or Drake’s name—signaling their pick in the hip-hop rivalry.

Alex Bowman had no idea what was happening at first, standing there completely blank-faced before eventually choosing Kendrick.

But the real comedy started when Joey Logano, last year’s NASCAR champion, admitted he had no idea who Kendrick was—yet still picked him!

“I don’t know who Kendrick is,” Logano confessed, as he casually walked toward Lamar’s side.

Meanwhile, Kyle Busch, aka Rowdy, initially had no clue either but after a moment of realization, confidently declared, “Well, I know that one,” before also siding with Kendrick.

Some NASCAR Stars Knew Exactly Where They Stood

Unlike the confused contingent, some drivers picked their side without hesitation.

  • Carson Hocevar? Team Kendrick.
  • Ross Chastain? No doubt—Kendrick.
  • Denny Hamlin? Confidently picked Kendrick.
  • Chase Briscoe? Team Drake.
  • Ty Gibbs & Zane Smith? Both with Drake.

Then there was Todd Gilliland, who seemed unsure at first, leaned toward Kendrick, then changed his mind and went with Drake—because why not?

The “I Live Under a Rock” Response

The best reaction came from Justin Haley, who refused to pick either side, standing in the middle and declaring, “I couldn’t even name a song from either.”

“I live under a rock,” he added, summing up what many NASCAR fans were probably thinking.

Meanwhile, Daniel Suárez seemed just as lost, asking, “What is this?” before awkwardly picking a side.

NASCAR’s Hilarious Take on Pop Culture Rivalries

This isn’t the first time NASCAR has injected some pop culture fun into their driver interactions, and fans loved the unscripted chaos.

It’s clear that while some drivers are plugged into the music scene, others are more comfortable in the cockpit than in a rap battle.

One thing’s for sure—even in NASCAR, the Kendrick vs. Drake debate rages on.

And with the Daytona 500 just around the corner, expect more off-track fun before the real racing begins.
