For years, LeBron James and Hip-Hop legend Drake seemed to have a close relationship.

The Canadian star routinely shouted him out, wore his jersey, and even had a tattoo of LeBron James on his arm.

Fast forward to today, and it seems like their relationship has reached a breaking point, as Drake took yet another shot at the four-time NBA champion.

As fans pointed out on social media, it looks like Drake took a jab at James in his 'What Did I Miss?' track:

"I saw bro at the Pop Out with them but been d**kriding gang since 'Headlines,'" the lyrics read. "You switched on the guys and supported a hater," he later adds. 

For those who lack context, James was one of many NBA stars in attendance at Kendrick Lamar's 'Pop Out' concert last Juneteenth, which took place shortly after his beef with Drake reached its peak.

James was one of the many celebrities in attendance, singing and dancing along to Lamar's 'Not Like Us,' one of the greatest diss tracks in Hip-Hop history, and a song that claimed that Drake liked underage women, among other things.

Drake first took a shot at James in his 'Fighting Irish' freestyle, talking about how they used to be friends and even traded watches, not to mention that James used to play for the Fighting Irish in high school: 

“Remember, we traded watches. I gave you the Arabic dial, and you gave me the numbered edition,” he sang. 

As a Toronto Raptors ambassador, Drake will be there in the front row when James and the Lakers are in town, and he'll definitely have a couple of things to say to him courtside.
