During a recent livestream with popular streamer xQc, Drake raised eyebrows with his comments about Steve Lacy, calling him a "fragile opp" while acknowledging his music.

As Lacy's tracks played in the background, Drake remarked, “This guy’s like a fragile opp, but this is a good song though,” a statement fans quickly linked to Lacy’s association with Kendrick Lamar.

Steve Lacy’s collaboration with Lamar on tracks like Not Like Us and his presence at Lamar’s The Pop Out- Ken & Friends concert earlier this year solidified his alliance with the rapper. Their bond is rooted in shared Compton origins, with Lacy openly expressing pride in his hometown and supporting Lamar during his high-profile feud with Drake.

Drake’s comments come amid a backdrop of tension with Kendrick Lamar, who recently released his surprise album GNX. The album, including tracks like Not Like Us and Euphoria, continued to take shots at Drake.

Responding to Kendrick’s diss tracks during the stream, Drake said, “You need facts to take me out. Fairytales won’t do it.”

Fans have taken to social media to dissect the remarks, with some viewing them as a playful jab and others interpreting a deeper rivalry. Steve Lacy’s collaboration on Kendrick’s PRIDE and his active support for the rapper further fuel speculation about his role in the ongoing feud between the two musical powerhouses.

While Drake remains one of the most dominant artists in hip-hop, his remarks during the xQc stream have reignited discussions about alliances and rivalries in the music industry.
