After taking the stage during the Super Bowl Halftime Show, Mustard addressed questions about the Kendrick Lamar and Drake beef.
Appearing on Big Boy’s Neighborhood on Monday (February 10), Mustard responded to a question about what should Drake do a majority of people believed that he took a one-sided loss in the battle.
“I know you can’t speak for him. What the hell does Drake do after all this?” Big Boy asked the “tv off” producer.
“I don’t know, man. I actually don’t think about what he could do. I have no idea. I kinda try to stay aligned with just pure sh*t, like, just being pure and being on the right side of things and not doing no tactics and gimmicks,” Mustard responded.
“I’m not speaking at Drake or for him But a lot of sh*tthat’s going on—it’s like the tactics, the things that you do just to get attention,” he continued. ‘You don’t need to do that. Just make music, man, and make good music and you’ll be fine. So I don’t know.”
While Mustard didn’t speak on anything specific during the interview, one “tactic” Drake and his legal team deployed was to issue a statement concerning his lawsuit against UMG hours before Kendrick’s epic halftime show performance.
“UMG is masquerading as a champion of artistic freedom by calling its actions merely ‘entertainment’, but there is nothing entertaining about pedophilia or child abuse in the real world,” the statement read.
“We are confident that the evidence we will ultimately present at trial—including information we’ve already learned and continue to receive since filing the lawsuit—will expose UMG’s gross prioritization of its own corporate profits and executive bonuses over its exclusively signed artists’ well-being and the truth,” the statement continued.
But this did not slow Kendrick down. K-Dot electrified the crowd accompanied by Mustard, Samuel L. Jackson, and Serena Williams. And of course, he performed “Not Like Us.”
