 There was another reference as well.

“Please stop asking what’s going on with 23 and me, I'm a real n****, and he’s not. It’s in my DNA.”

Moreover, there was a viral moment when LeBron James and Stephen Curry came face-to-face in the Drake-Lamar rap feud. During the 2024 Olympics, the arena blared with ‘Not Like Us.’

While the rest of the squad visibly enjoyed the game, Curry intervened and said, “Damn with this song. It’s not the only song in America.”

In response, Bron said, “I love it.”

Drake seemed to have returned the love in the new song.

“Back when they was asking about where Davidson was at… now everybody got a blue 30 on they back.”

It’s a reference to Curry’s college and his jersey number.
