Sacramento Kings owner Vivek Ranadivs apparent attempt to quote Kendrick Lamar wasnt exactly a slam dunk.

In a video shared online Monday, Ranadiv is seen talking to NBA veteran DeMar DeRozan who recently joined the Kings in a reported sign-and-trade deal about DeRozan being a sought-after free agent before he then references Lamars hit song Not Like Us.

So I know, DeMar, that everybody wants you every team, every city, all the players, Ranadiv says while standing next to DeRozan. But I got one thing to tell you: Theyre nothing like us!

DeRozan is shown breaking out in laughter before dapping it up with Ranadiv. But hip-hop fans were quick to call a foul on the tech entrepreneurs butchering of Lamars lyrics. (Ranadiv has previously served as a contributor for HuffPost.)

The lyrics to the Compton, California, natives catchy four-word chorus for his acclaimed song a brutal diss track aimed at fellow rapper Drake are they not like us.
