DJ Akademiks Explains How Drake Is Trolling Kendrick Lamar In The 'Nokia' Video

Drake dropped the video to "Nokia" yesterday, the hit song off his $ome $exy $ongs 4 U album with PARTYNEXTDOOR.

DJ Akademiks believes that Drake is taking subtle shots at Kendrick Lamar in the video, and some online think the same thing.

In one part, Drake is seen dancing in front of a bunch of women. Ak says it's the same dance that Kendrick does in the video for "Not Like Us."

There's another part that shows a bunch of uncaged owls, an owl being the symbol for Drake's OVO label.

Ak says Drake is sending another shot at Kendrick here since the Compton rapper shows a caged owl in the "Not Like Us" video. 

It's believed that Drake is saying that Kendrick was unsuccessful in defeating him and OVO by showing the uncaged birds.

Do you believe Drizzy is sending a message to Dot with the video?
