He was a prominent representative of the Blue Jays, who were going up against the Dodgers, who are supported by rapper Kendrick Lamar, Drake’s top rival.

In the end, Lamar came out on top, according to most people’s accounts, when he released “Not Like Us,” a song that savagely attacked Drake’s character while possessing all the hallmarks of a hit hip-hop song. Due to the massive cultural impact of the rap battle and the two teams in the World Series, the parallels were drawn early on. On the Fox broadcast, both artists’ songs featured, depending on which team was being highlighted. In the end, Lamar’s team came out on top, and Fox’s social media post featured an image that accurately concluded the story between both artists and teams.
