Qui Yasuka aka Suki Baby, the cover star of Drake’s Her Loss collaboration album with 21 Savage, says no one is touching Kendrick Lamar right now. “This is just his way of putting out to the world, ‘Nobody is fucking playing with me,’” she said on Instagram.

That support isn’t sitting well with Akademiks who responded: “Shorty might be a little dense in her thinking, but be very clear, this Kendrick album is the embodiment of the energy from the battle.”

Akademiks Reacts To “Her Loss” Cover Model Suki Baby’s Love For Kendrick Lamar’s “GNX”

Akademiks chimed in on Suki Baby, the cover model of Drake and 21 Savage’s Her Loss album, shocking social media with her praise for Kendrick Lamar’s new album, GNX, on Thanksgiving. During a recent chat with her followers, Suki expressed her admiration for GNX, describing it as more than just a response to Lamar’s detractors. “This album Kendrick put out—it’s for the world,” she shared. “We can go back a couple of songs, and he’s not even talking about bro. He’s in this space where he’s saying, ‘Nobody is playing with me.’ It’s not just directed at one person; it’s a statement.”

As usual, Akademiks shared his thoughts on Suki’s comments, saying, “Shorty might be a little dense in her thinking, but be very clear, this Kendrick album is the embodiment of the energy from the battle.” Big Ak would relate GNX to Drake’s album More Life, the project after Drizzy’s battle with Meek Mill. He added: “Drake’s album after Meek Mill … the obliteration of Meek Mill. That was the embodiment of, ‘hey, this is me on an aggressive type of timing, since y’all think y’all can play with me. Look what I did to the last dude.’ And that’s what Kendrick is on. I’m not saying he is speaking about Drake in every line. But the energy created by the battle is still on this album.”

GNX is set to debut at #1 with 324,000 units after taking over Apple Music and Spotify charts. The surprised album features an all-L.A. roster outside of SZA’s features on “luther” and “gloria.” The album’s lead track, “squabble up” is projected to debut at #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 this week. Memes featuring Lamar screaming the producer Mustard’s name propelled “tv off” to social media’s top of the charts. Lamar’s Yell inspired brands to add it to their promotions. 

As Kendrick’s album soars to record-breaking heights ahead of the Super Bowl, Drake prepares to go international in February. Drizzy and Live Nation revealed his upcoming Anita Max Win Tour on Thanksgiving. Before the announcement, Drake revealed the tour on livestream with xQc. The tour kicks off the same day as Lamar’s anticipated Super Bowl LIX Halftime Show performance.

Suki Baby From Drake & 21 Savage’s “Her Loss” Cover Praises Kendrick Lamar’s New Album

Earlier this month, Kendrick Lamar caught fans and critics alike off guard by unleashing his new album, GNX. The release followed months of rumors that he had a project on the way, and of course, his viral feud with Drake. Countless social media users have continued to share their takes on the album, and in general, most are enjoying it. This includes Suki Baby, the woman featured on the cover of Drake and 21 Savage’s collab album, Her Loss.

During a recent chat with her fans, Suki praised GNX, making it clear that she thinks the album goes far beyond a rap battle. “This album that Kendrick put out, this is for the world,” she explained. “Like, we could go two three songs back and it’s like he not even talking about bro. He’s at this point in his life where he’s on some sh*t like a lot of us. Where you have a threshold of how much you let people play with you, and like, this is just his way of putting out to the world ‘Nobody is f*cking playing with me.’ It’s not just directed at him.”

Suki Baby Claims Kendrick Lamar’s GNX Is “For The World”

Unsurprisingly, Suki Baby’s stance has viewers split. While some are accusing her of turning her back on Drizzy, others are coming to her defense, and arguing that she has every right to share her unbiased opinion on an album. “Wow wasn’t expecting this,” one X user writes. “She’s speaking the truth,” another says. Suki is far from the only person feeling Kendrick’s new album lately, however. Nas, Snoop Dogg, and many more have also shown their support online recently.

Busta Rhymes even took to X earlier this week to applaud Kendrick for his latest release. “King Kendrick, such an incredible body of work! Brilliance and lyrical craftsmanship at its finest. Thank you for continuing to raise the bar! [crown emoji],” he wrote.
