Top5 is someone who's affiliated with Drake and the rapper's OVO record label. He's also known for making threats on Drake's behalf. Currently, he's going at Kendrick Lamar for dissing the Canadian rapper in their battle.

Plus, Top5 threatened Kendrick just weeks after he beat a murder case. He was arrested in 2021 and charged with first-degree murder in the killing of Hashim Omar Hashi.

Still, Top5 had no problem threatening Kendrick's life, saying he'd harm him in a drive-by shooting. "Tell him come to Toronto. Swiss cheese," said Top5 about the "Not Like Us" rapper in an interview on Late Night with Liyah Mai. "I’ll get the low, put on my Nike tech black, tell YG get us a driver, put the window down and get some fresh air."

This is the second time that Top5 has threatened Kendrick since beating his murder case. Last month, while speaking to DJ Akademiks and Adin Ross, he explained what would happen if the Compton artist ever came to Toronto, Drake's hometown. Top5 also threatened Metro Boomin at that time for releasing the diss track, "BBL Drizzy."

"I'm just looking for Metro Boomin and Kendrick Lamar," said Top5. "I'm doing my homework on them right now, doing my tasks on them right now. Nothing incriminating. I'm just looking for them. I want Metro Boomin one-on-one. I don't want no weapons, nothing. I'm knocking the f**k outta him."

"Kendrick Lamar, you cross the border, Chubbs calling me, you passed the border, man," he continued. "I will quit rapping if Kendrick Lamar goes to [the Toronto Chinese restaurant] New Ho King without 20 police officers ... You’re crazy for testing my gangsta."

K Dot's friends Hitta J3 and Smac responded to those words and dared him to follow through. Drake hasn't commented on the threats yet.
