Drake‘s beef with Kendrick Lamar may have fizzled out, but it appears he still has smoke for the Compton rapper’s inner circle.

Eagle-eyed fans noticed on Thursday (June 27) that the 6 God has begun following the estranged wife of Mustard, who produced Kendrick’s chart-topping diss song “Not Like Us,” on Instagram.

Drizzy’s sly move was reciprocated, with Channel Theirry — who shares three children with the multi-platinum hitmaker — following the rapper back.

Theirry has an axe to grind with Mustard herself, with the former couple being embroiled in a bitter divorce battle since May 2022.

Despite Drake’s apparent taunt, Mustard has attempted to maintain neutrality in the high-profile feud between the Hip Hop heavyweights.

In a recent interview with XXL, he revealed that he had no prior knowledge that Kendrick would pick his beat for “Not Like Us.”

“I made that beat on my manager’s birthday [April 6],” he said. “I sent [Kendrick] maybe three [beats] that day. He just hearted it. I didn’t hear it ’til [the song] came out.”

The 10 Summers boss also denied trolling Drake during the track’s music video shoot, where he was spotted wearing a Toronto Blue Jays cap, Drizzy’s hometown baseball team.

“I wasn’t trolling. I really wasn’t trolling,” he insisted while chatting with radio host Big Boy. “I bought a lot of hats that I like. I bought an STL hat, an Angels hat, a Braves hat. I put Faith of a Mustard Seed [the title of his new album] on all of them.

“I sweated out two of my hats at Pop Out [Kendrick Lamar’s Inglewood concert] and that was the last hat that I had with Faith of a Mustard Seed on it. It just happened to be a Toronto Blue Jays hat.”

Mustard also clarified that the cap was a nod to Baldwin Village, the notorious South Los Angeles neighborhood known as “the Jungles” where he grew up.

“I grew up in the Jungles, we all wear that hat,” he explained. “I mean, I wear the NY hat — that’s Nip’s hat, the neighborhoods. Our hats mean a lot of different things so I never thought that much into it like, ‘Oh, I’m tryna troll y’all.’”

“If I was on that, then I woulda probably wacked the Blue Jay off and put an X between it,” he joked. “I wasn’t on that, though.”
