The rap beef between Drake and Kendrick Lamar continues to be a hot topic, and now it’s spilling over into the world of fan accounts. X (formerly Twitter) has rolled out a new feature revealing account locations, and it’s already causing quite a stir. Drake himself has seemingly weighed in by liking an Instagram post that exposed a Kendrick Lamar fan account for being based in India.
Location, Location, Location: The X Exposure
The drama unfolded when Drake’s fan page, @keep6ixsolid, shared a screenshot revealing that the account @hiiipowers, a prominent Kendrick Lamar fan page that claimed to be run by a Black man from Compton, was actually based in India. This account had previously been known for denying Drake’s Blackness, making the revelation even more pointed.
The @hiiipowers account has since released a statement acknowledging their location in India, explaining they started the account years ago before the current beef escalated. They also expressed frustration with X’s new feature, suggesting it’s designed to drive engagement through controversy.
Drake’s New Album ‘Iceman’ on the Horizon
Meanwhile, Drake is gearing up for the release of his first solo album since the intense beef with Kendrick Lamar last year. Titled ‘Iceman,’ the project is expected to drop before the end of 2025. He’s already dropped several singles, including ‘What Did I Miss?’, ‘Which One’ (featuring Central Cee), and ‘Dog House’ (featuring Yeat and Julia Wolf), which premiered during separate livestream events.
Drake hinted at even bigger plans for a final stream before ‘Iceman’ is fully released, promising it will be their ‘best work.’ This follows his successful collaborative album with PartyNextDoor, ‘Some Sexy Songs 4 U,’ which debuted at number one on the Billboard 200.
What’s Next in the Beef?
The exposure of the fan account’s location adds another layer to the ongoing feud between Drake and Kendrick Lamar. While Drake’s ‘like’ is a subtle jab, it highlights the scrutiny and online warfare surrounding their rivalry. As Drake prepares to release ‘Iceman,’ fans will undoubtedly be dissecting every lyric for potential references to Kendrick.
