Fans are convinced Drake's new diss track is aimed at LeBron James

Drake has released a new diss track following a summer of feuding with fellow rapper Kendrick Lamar, and fans are convinced his new song is taking aim at Lakers star LeBron James. While Drake has previously called James his 'brother' - and even has the basketball player tattooed on his arm - the four-time NBA champion sided with Lamar as he appeared at one of his shows over the summer, where he could be seen rapping along to the anti-Drake 'Not Like Us.'.
On Friday, Drake's 'Fighting Irish Freestyle' surfaced on social media, and listeners strongly believe the song is about James. 'The world fell in love with the gimmicks, even my brothers got tickets; Seemed like they loved every minute; Just know this s*** is personal to us, and it wasn't just business,' Drake rapped, appearing to reference former friends James and DeMar Derozan attending Lamar's show.
'I guess now you boys got to abandon your summer tradition,' he went on to say. 'Cold shoulders I gave in the Hamptons, it come with the distance; Figured we was always gon' be close, like ovens and kitchens.'. Drake and James have known each other since the latter's first stint with the Cleveland Cavaliers, and James used to visit the rapper's home city of Toronto over the summer.
