It marked the Bears’ first postseason victory in the NFL‘s oldest rivalry since December 1941, and it was a night were Ben Johnson became public enemy No.1.

He gave Packers head coach Matt LaFleur an icy handshake, before videos emerged of a shirtless Johnson chanting “F*** the Packers,” in the locker room.

Five-time Grammy Award winning rapper, and diehard Packers fan, Lil Wayne released a new song this week called ‘Special Ops’.

The song was released in conjunction with Green Bay’s Nike kit reveal, which they will wear Week 5 against the Bears.

He fires barbs at every team in the NFC North, but Wayne reserved multiple lines specifically to call out Johnson.

“We gon’ ball till we fall and get back up/If the coach in Chicago want to act up/We want all of the smoke, no tobacco,” Wayne rhymes.

“Tell your coach put his shirt back on/I got bear fur on my floor at home/We gon’ make you eat all them words/And may they taste like provolone/And the Bears still suck,” he adds in a later verse.

It then pivoted to stanza about how the Vikings are “still drunk” and the Lions’ “tails tucked.”

It’s not the first time that Wayne has directed shade towards a member of the Bears.

He was so surprised that Williams was able to inspire the playoff comeback that he went after him on social media.

“We just [lost] a playoff game to a ****** w purple nails we fkn suk bear a–! Bare a–!!!” he wrote.

“We don’t deserve to be in the playoffs. Straight like that.”

Days later, Wayne apologized to Williams for his tweet, to which the quarterback had a classy response too.

“Weez it’s all love,” Williams wrote. “#BearDown tho.”

Wayne’s latest musical offering makes it clear that no love has been lost between Green Bay and the rest of the Bears’ leadership.

For years, the Packers dictated terms of the rivalry, but Chicago’s dramatic playoff triumph proved that the dynamic in the NFC North might have shifted.
