When the rapper kicked off his Super Bowl halftime performance at the Caesars Superdome in New Orleans on Sunday, February 9, he was rocking a massive silver and diamond chain featuring a giant "a."

It was at first unclear what the lowercase letter was referring to.

However, fans quickly made the connection.

In Not Like Us, Kendrick slams his enemy Drake with the lyric: "Why you trollin' like a b***h? Ain't you tired? Trying to strike a chord and it's probably A minor."

Fans realized the "a" was a reference to "A minor"- and were left in awe by the subtle jab.

"Kendrick Lamar wearing a lowercase A (a minor) chain is diabolical work," one fan wrote on X, formerly known as Twitter.

"Kendrick Lamar said all he had to with that 'a minor' chain," responded another.

"Kendrick wearing a lowercase 'a' diamond chain for 'a minor?' My kind of hater!" praised a third.

"Drake must be crying right now!" commented a fourth.

Other followers shared the theory that the "a" chain was referring to Drake's legal first name, Aubrey.

In another diss toward Drake during the halftime show, Kendrick had his rival's ex-girlfriend Serena Williams make a surprise appearance.

NASTY FEUD

Kendrick has been feuding with Drake since 2023.

Four months after Kendrick was announced as the halftime performer, Drake filed a lawsuit against his record label, Universal Music Group, over his rival's diss track Not Like Us.

In the January 2025 lawsuit, Drake claimed UMG "knew full well" the lyrics from Kendrick's song accused him of being a pedophile.

Drake, born Aubrey Drake Graham, also claimed the label helped Kendrick snag the coveted spot as the Super Bowl halftime show performer.

Drake claimed Kendrick scored the gig to perform the diss track during "one of the most significant (and viewed) cultural events of the year."

But attorney Camron Dowlatshahi, who deals in employment and entertainment cases, told The U.S. Sun Drake's lawsuit could not stop Kendrick.

"This is a hit song, and he's the main artist. So I'm fairly confident he's gonna play it," Dowlatshahi said.
