Even 'America's dad' wants to know about the rap beef that everyone's been talking about. Chet Hanks, the son of actor Tom Hanks, posted screenshots to his Instagram Story on Monday that appear to show texts from his father asking about the recent feud between Drake and Kendrick Lamar. The two rappers were embroiled in a weekslong battle that saw each of them releasing various diss tracks, or songs used to throw jabs at a fellow artist.
He jokingly called his dad out about whether he'd actually read the explanation. 'Did you not just read what I said,' Chet Hanks messaged back, alongside three laughing emojis. Screenshots of their exchange circulated Monday on X, where many people were enthused by Tom Hanks' attempt to learn from his son. Some said the Oscar-winning actor's response seemed like the 'most Tom Hanks response.' Tom Hanks' name began trending on X by early Monday afternoon.
