Drake and Kendrick Lamar’s battle may be over, but conspiracy theories are still flying -- including one about a journalist, who says one particular narrative about him is 100% false.

Christopher Alvarez -- a 26-year-old freelance reporter -- had his likeness intertwined with a cryptic countdown hinting at exposing Drake this past weekend, in attempts to validate Kendrick's salacious raps ... and the items used in the cover art from "Meet the Grahams."

The countdown came from the X user EbonyPrince2k24 -- who posted a laptop playing surveillance video of Alvarez sitting in his wheelchair inside a hotel lobby. It was a cryptic post, because no one understood what connection Alvarez has to the Kendrick-Drake beef.

But, Alvarez told the Brooklyn Eagle the entire firestorm is nothing but a smokescreen.
