Kendrick Fans Hilariously Formalize "Not Like Us" Lyrics, Imagine Him Saying Drake Has 'Fondness for Prepubescent Humans'

"Wop wop wop wop wop, Dot proceed with the utmost precision and disrupt their endeavors," went one fan's clever reimagining.

Kendrick Lamarā€™s fans have jokes that will take you back to olden times.

It apparently all started when X user MalcHatesYou tweeted a reworked lyric from ā€œNot Like Us,ā€ writing, ā€œEvery now and thenā€¦ you gotta make an appearance and remind people who you are.ā€

This is, of course, a nod to the bar "sometimes you gotta pop out and show n***as." The line was referenced last week by Kendrick's epic concert event The Pop Out: Ken & Friends.

Every now and thenā€¦ you gotta make an appearance and remind people who you are

From there, fans dug up selections from the rapperā€™s 2013 GQ Rapper of the Year photoshoot, among other photos, and rewrote the newest West Coast anthemā€™s lyrics to an almost Shakespearean form of speech in the replies and quotes. 

Kendrick's "Not Like Us" currently sits at No. 6 on the Billboard Hot 100, where it's lived for seven weeks and peaked at No. 1. The beef-inciting "Like That," by Future and Metro Boomin with an explosive Kendrick verse," is at No. 14, has been on the Hot 100 for 13 weeks, and also charted at No. 1.

On X, reimagined bars from other Drake disses, including ā€œEuphoria,ā€ also made appearances. Here are some of the most hilariously formalized "Not Like Us" lyric flips:

The one associate of OVO named Baka has a legal matter that is quite grotesque.

no obstacle, and no dialect can persuade me otherwise. Indeed, both Cole and Aubrey are aware of my exclusive nature. The mantle weighs heavily. It is my hope that their friendship is genuine; otherwise, I find myself in a predicament akin to YNW Mellyā€™s https://t.co/1n2r34R7wO pic.twitter.com/aYMASxotrb
