Drake once again became the target of concern and mockery from he appeared at the exclusive Fourth of July White Party hosted by Michael Rubin in the Hamptons.

Fans ridiculed his look, with some were worried when they saw a photo of the Canadian rapper looking stressed, prompting speculation about his well-being.

Rubin shared a carousel of pictures on Instagram and one of them showed Drake with his stylish cream-colored outfit. Despite his trendy attire, followers couldn't help but notice a "off" expression on his face.

Comments ranged from the "Hotline Bling" rapper looking "off," "so sad," and "depressed." Meanwhile, others mocked the 37-year-old, with one commenter saying, "Drake has aged like 20 years since the beef."

A second person wrote, "Drake look like he been through the ringer."

"Holy face of defeat," a third person said.

As "One Dance" hitmaker reveled in the Hamptons festivities, his former pal Kendrick Lamar diligently wrapped up his win in their highly publicized feud. The Pulitzer Prize winner released the highly anticipated music video for his hit diss track "Not Like Us" on Thursday night in a surprise drop.

The video included hidden nods directed at his rival.

Lamar, also known as K. Dot, makes a bold statement by aiming for Drake's iconic OVO logo. In a different segment, he could be seen seen grooving to the lively track produced by Mustard alongside his partner Whitney Alford and their two kids, who were unexpectedly involved in the dispute initiated by Drake.

Taking a sly swipe at the "Rich Baby Daddy" rapper, the music video was co-directed by Lamar himself and features a special appearance by Dave Free, his trusted manager for many years. The bottom of the clip also read, "No OVHoes were harmed during the making of this video."

It was in October 2023 when the feud between Drake and Lamar was thrust into the spotlight when a track titled "First Person Shooter" by Drake and J. Cole made waves, rapping about the "big three" of hip-hop. In response, however, Lamar fired back with his lyrics featured in the track "Like That" by Metro Boomin and Future, asserting, "It's just me."

Following this feud, the hip-hop artists dropped a series of diss tracks, with Kendrick Lamar's track titled "Not Similar to Us" gaining widespread popularity on the airwaves. The single claimed the top spot on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
