The Culps are back to catch us up on the past 20 years in music (and more recent music feuds) during SNL50: The Homecoming Concert.

During Friday’s SNL50: The Homecoming Concert, alums Will Ferrell and Ana Gasteyer reprised the hilarious music-teaching couple they portrayed on the NBC sketch comedy show from 1996 to 2002, complete with a cover of Kendrick Lamar’s ‘Not Like Us’.

In addition to Britney Spears’ ‘Work Bitch’, Sam Smith and Kim Petras’ ‘Unholy’, Megan Thee Stallion’s ‘Body’ and Chappell Roan’s ‘Good Luck Babe’, the duo gave their rendition of Lamar’s diss track against Drake.

“Are Kenny Lamar and Drake Graham in the house, by the way? Maybe you two can hug it out tonight in the name of love and fellowship,” Ferrell’s Marty Culp joked. “No? Not in hell?”

Following the track’s five Grammy wins amid his feud with Drake, Lamar performed the song during his Super Bowl LIX halftime show, featuring Drake’s ex Serena Williams.

Hosted by alum Jimmy Fallon, the SNL50 lineup also features Lady Gaga, Miley Cyrus, The B52s, Jelly Roll, Brandi Carlile, Eddie Vedder, Mumford & Sons, Lady Gaga, Post Malone, Arcade Fire, Chris Martin, Backstreet Boys, Bonnie Raitt, David Byrne, Brittany Howard, Devo, The Roots, Preservation Hall Jazz Band, Robyn, Jack White, Cher, Dave Grohl, Lauryn Hill, Snoop Dogg, St. Vincent and Wyclef Jean.

Up next, SNL50: The Anniversary Special airs live Sunday at 8pm ET/5pm PT on NBC and Peacock.
