(COMBO) This combination of pictures created on January 15, 2025 shows Rapper Drake sitting on Centre Court before US player Serena Williams plays against Italy's Camila Giorgi during their women's singles quarter-final match on the eighth day of the 2018 Wimbledon Championships at The All England Lawn Tennis Club in Wimbledon, southwest London, on July 10, 2018. and recording artist Kendrick Lamar arriving at the MTV Video Music Awards 2017, in Inglewood, California, on August 27, 2017. Drake on January 15, 2025, filed suit against his own label, saying that Universal Music Group's release and promotion of a Kendrick Lamar track dissing him amounted to defamation and harassment.

Kendrick Lamar’s performance at the Super Bowl LIX halftime show has sparked 125 complaints to the Federal Communications Commission.
Some viewers criticized the show for inappropriate lyrics, dance moves, and anti-American themes, while others were upset over his ongoing feud with rapper Drake being included in the performance.
Lamar’s performance, which attracted over 133.5 million viewers, featured some of his biggest hits, including “DNA,” “Humble,” and “Not Like Us”—his diss track aimed at Drake.
Tennis legend Serena Williams made a brief appearance during the performance, but her “Crip-walking” dance move led to complaints that she was promoting gang culture.
