Drake and LeBron James appear to still be on the outs.

Drake threw more shade at the Los Angeles Lakers star during a tour stop in Perth, Australia on Tuesday night, making a slight change to one of the lines in his 2018 song "Nonstop."

"How I go from 6 to 23 but not LeBron, man," Drake rapped, switching the original lyric, "How I go from 6 to 23 like I'm LeBron?"

While neither have publicly addressed any beef, the pair's fallout appears to stem from James' support of rapper Kendrick Lamar, who released a diss track aimed at Drake, "Not Like Us," in May 2024.

Drake took another apparent shot at James in a freestyle last month titled "Fighting Irish," which shares the same name as James' high school basketball team at St. Vincent-St. Mary High School in Akron, Ohio.

Lamar is set to perform at halftime of Super Bowl LIX in New Orleans on Sunday. There's no confirmation yet on whether James plans to attend the game.
