Qui Yasuka, known for her appearance on the cover of Drake’s ‘Her Loss’, has turned heads with her enthusiastic praise for Kendrick Lamar’s latest album. She’s not holding back her admiration, which has some fans buzzing about her loyalty to the OVO rapper.
Yasuka, a model and Twitch streamer, couldn’t contain her excitement about Kendrick’s new work, ‘GNX’. During a recent stream, she shared, ‘This album that Kendrick put out – this is for the world.’ Her comments sparked speculation about her current stance on Drake.
She elaborated further, noting Kendrick’s unmatched presence in the music industry: ‘We could go two, three songs back, and it’s like, he’s not even talking about bro. He’s at this point in his life where he’s on some things like a lot of us.’
Yasuka’s words resonated, especially when she concluded, ‘This is just his way of putting out to the world, ‘Nobody is messing with me.’’ Her statement, ‘Nobody is touching Kendrick Lamar right now,’ clipped and circulated on social media, only added fuel to the fire.
Fans on social media quickly reacted, suggesting that Yasuka might be aligning with Kendrick in an ongoing conflict. One user emphasized the significance by saying, ‘Messing with good people makes good people go to bat.’
Another fan humorously hinted at potential legal drama, suggesting, ‘I bet Drizzy gon sue her for this 🤣.’ This comment is a nod to Drake’s legal battles, where he claimed unfair practices were used to boost Kendrick’s track popularity.
Drake’s accusations included the use of streaming bots and alleged defamation by UMG, who released a song he claims wrongly paints him as a pedophile. Interestingly, since Drake filed his complaints, his own track ‘Not Like Us’ saw a dramatic increase in popularity.
This surge was seen in both sales and streams, with a staggering 440 percent increase in sales and a 20 percent rise in streams. ‘Not Like Us’ climbed 16 spots on Spotify’s Global chart, demonstrating the unpredictable nature of public response.
The track is also poised to make a significant impact on next week’s Billboard Hot 100. It previously topped the charts in May and July, and this renewed interest shines a spotlight on the unpredictable dynamics within the music industry.
As the music scene continues to evolve, fans and artists alike watch closely how these dynamics unfold. Yasuka’s candid admiration for Kendrick Lamar stirs the pot, but both artists continue to command attention in their unique ways.
