Argentina aimed a musical jab at Drake after the Canadian artist lost $300,000 on a wager that his country would defeat the reigning champions in the Copa America semifinal on Tuesday. Argentina used a song by Drake's rap adversary, Kendric Lamar, to convey their message. Drake had shared an Instagram post indicating that his bet could have netted him $2.88 million if Canada had triumphed. However, goals by Julian Alvarez and Lionel Messi propelled Argentina into their fourth final in five editions of the tournament.
The World Cup champions retorted to Drake's post with an image captioned: "Not like us", referencing a 'diss' track by Lamar released in May that critiqued the Canadian artist. This track, which has been streamed close to half a billion times on Spotify, is part of an ongoing musical feud between the two rappers, with the music video garnering over 115 million views on YouTube.
Argentina is now vying for their record 16th Copa America title and will face either Uruguay or Colombia in the final on Sunday.
