Support for Lil Wayne didn’t mean that other acts weren’t backing Kendrick.
“You can love & respect Kendrick and still love & respect Wayne,” wrote Nicki.
“Even Kendrick loves & respects Wayne. Every real rapper loves & respects Wayne,” Nicki wrote.
In a post to his nearly four million Instagram followers, legendary rapper Master P said he saluted Kendrick and described him as “one of the hottest music artists in the world”.
But he said Lil Wayne “should be a part of this celebration as well”, considering his roots and history.
“He’s one of the greatest [Hip Hop] artists alive, still relevant and he’s a New Orleans native.
“Let’s not miss this cultural moment in the South… We have to give our legends their flowers while they are here.”
Nicki also praised Lil Wayne, who’s known for helping artists to get a foothold in the industry.
“This man has literally changed the FACE of hip hop. The hair too… He inspired so many to tat their faces & get locks.
“He never was in this for the money. It’s always been for the love of music,” Nicki says.
But looking at current streams, Kendrick Lamar dwarfs Lil Wayne, with 68.1 million monthly listeners on Spotify, compared to 36.5 million.
Kendrick is also known for being one of the most inventive lyricists hip-hop today.
In 2018, he became the first hip-hop artist to win the Pulitzer Prize for music and has so far won 17 Grammy awards.
BBC Newsbeat has requested comment from Jay-Z, Roc Nation and Lil Wayne – but not yet heard back.
