The West Coast superproducer played the first few seconds of “Crew Love” off Drake’s Take Care before making a smooth transition into Future, Metro Boomin and Kendrick Lamar’s “Like That” to zing the 6 God. “Sike,” he said while firing up the Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 hit, which drew a roar from the Dodger Stadium crowd.
“This is hate on another level,” one fan wrote to X. Another chimed in, “I can’t lie that switch up was insane!”

Of course, Mustard kicked off his set with Kendrick Lamar’s Drake diss. Before the instrumental from the chart-topping hit began, the DJ’s backdrop was filled with dialogue from the horror movie The Sixth Sense. That ended up switching to a mural honoring L.A. legends such as the late Nipsey Hussle as well as Kobe Bryant.
“When I was growing up, I watched 2Pac, ‘California Love,’ Dr. Dre, Snoop, the Death Row days,” Mustard told Billboard over the summer of his involvement in the Drake-Kendrick feud. “It’s like being a part of that again, but in this day and age.”
It should be noted that the Camp Flog Gnaw festival crowd booed Drake off the stage when he was a surprise guest performer in 2019, as the audience hoped to see Frank Ocean instead.
While Mustard linked up with Drake to produce YG’s “Who Do You Love” back in 2014, don’t expect to see the duo work together again. “I don’t think I want to make a song with that dude,” Mustard told The Los Angeles Times of Drake in August. “He’s a strange guy.”
Just days later, a petty Drake fired back by including footage of a 2014 phone call with YG and Mustard showing their appreciation for the 6 God working with them as part of Drizzy’s 100 Gigs drop.

It’s been a banner year for Mustard, who is nominated for producer of the year, non-classical at the 2025 Grammy Awards. In addition to producing “Not Like Us,” he also released his Faith of a Mustard Seed album in July, which reached No. 50 on the Billboard 200.
