It didn’t take internet jokesters long to rehash lyrics directed at Drake, Baka and the OVO crew from Kendrick on his chart-topping diss track “Not Like Us.” Underneath an Instagram post of the group photo from the party, one person wrote: “Why is Baka around?” while another commented: “Those predators move in flocks.” Another simply said: “The jokes write themselves man lol.” https://www.instagram.com/p/DBFEzZbx1iD On “Not Like Us,” Kendrick rapped: “And Baka got a weird case, why is he around? / Certified Lover Boy? Certified pedophiles.” The line references Baka’s 2014 arrest for allegedly forcing a 22-year-old woman into prostitution and stealing her money. According to the Toronto Sun, Baka (real name Travis Savoury) avoided charges of procuring for prostitution and human trafficking but pleaded guilty to assaulting the woman. He was subsequently sentenced to six months in jail but allowed to walk free due to time served, with the 45-year-old Canadian later signing with Drake’s OVO Sound in 2017.

Baka has never addressed the diss directly but did take a shot at Kendrick after he released an untitled song, referred to as “Watch the Party Die,” last month. The five-minute track finds K. Dot lamenting the state of the rap game and wider music industry (if not society as a whole) with lyrics like: “Street n-ggas and the corporate guys, the rappers that report the lies, I need they families mortified / We can do life without ’em, get they bodies organized, tell me if you obliged.” Baka hit out at the song — Kendrick’s first of the year not to explicitly diss Drake — on TikTok, writing: “Shit sound like how them shoes look lil n-gga [wastebasket emoji].”
