Respect for all the research you’ve done. Glad to see a more subjective critique that still gave objective points to the whole arc of the fued. We have enough fanboys just shilling for one side
Your comment about thinking Kendrick never really respected Drake, I think he did, when he was starting out. But I imagine after touring with Drake, and being around him more and more, I think he started to see Drake in a different light. In the end, the fans don't know these people as well as they know each other. I'm thinking Kendrick *does* have good reasons behind his constant referencing of Drake.
in King Kunta, Dot says "a rapper with ghost writers, what the f--- happened?" i think Kendrick had a profound "do not meet your heroes" kinda thing with Drake on tour (not that Drake was a hero, just borrowing lol) or later and that was it for him
As a journalist I appreciate your hard work to making sure you’re putting out credible information. Also being unbiased in your delivery that’s journalism 101 your opinion doesn’t matter only the facts do. Well done 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Oh I see your Pic! Typical!!!!! your pandering to YT is quite evident. Have the life you deserve! Come at me if you want, YOU will regret it not a threat love but a statement and fact!
@@ami7189 Not just how he ended it. He keeps appealing to the performative nature of Drake pretending to be "Nice". Making it seem like Kendrick is unreasonable because Drake just wanted to stop the beef. It all feels pretty biased toward Drake and almost feels like it wants to paint Drake as a victim of a one-sided beef. Someone being nice in public doesn't squash a beef when the issues that cause it are behind closed doors. This video is certainly not an Unbiased retelling of the facts, otherwise it wouldn't focus mainly on Drake's attempts to just be kind. The unbiased person would have explored the Two Faced nature of Drake by exploring his attempted exploitation of The Weekend and pulling in the myriad of reasons why Kendrick doesn't need to squash a beef with someone who is "nice" on Twitter. The "journalist" you are responding to makes the same mistake as a lot of Media these days and pretend that if you include narratives from both sides it is somehow unbiased, even if the narratives are slanted to one side. You know, like a bias would cause. Now it does come off across like an "attempt" to make something unbiased, but failed. Then again. I am human, too, and it's possible my biases could be effecting my perception of the video. That said, I am not an actual rap fan and really don't know much about either artist.:shrug:
@@sunnyboknow same! And learning about it now makes the music from the last 10 years sound completely new that I get to appreciate for the first time all over again from a new perspective. Thanks to his hard work on these vids. Best thing to happen to hip hop in the last decade.
Hip hop can have both. Let's not forget hip hop was all about partying at first. Though I do agree that we need more sincere voices like Kendrick these days.
Drake makes me feel like someone put their finger in my navel with a long, painted nail and then turned his finger like a screw. He is in need of a new residence with a couple of *Screws*. 😊
Don’t forget Kendrick won The Pulitzer …it took a surprising turn when it was announced in 2018 that rapper Kendrick Lamar would be the recipient of the music award for his album DAMN. (2017). Kendrick was the first musical artist from a genre other than jazz or classical to earn this honor… great video had no clue all this going on
@kingebin9830 100% agree. I can imagine Kendrick and Bob having this deep meaningful beautiful conversation that leads to a cool friendship… both poets of their time…
You keep saying Drake is trying to be friendly. I don't see it that way at all and that’s probably why Kendrick doesn’t like him. He throws shots then plays nice. That’s strategy. Kendrick is saying he sees the chess moves and isn’t falling for them. He’s keeping the same energy
Kendrick started it drake tried to print it down let's be honest Kendrick wants it this way. The guy could have literally just stopped talking to Drake and keep it moving
@@jameslight4391 Drake literally could have just stopped doing sassy ass shit and pretending like he's showing love... but then throwing subtle ass bars about dudes in his songs. It goes both ways. Drake wants to pretend like he's ready for that smoke... but also tries to put on a facade for the public like he just wants to show love to everybody. That's some hoe ass shit. Why is he literally the ONLY person in the entire industry that took that "Control" verse so personal? He wasn't the only one mentioned on that verse... but somehow he's the only one to bitch about it. That's partly why Kendrick doesn't fuck w/ him. Kendrick made it a friendly competitive. Everybody Kendrick mentioned took it as a friendly competition. But Drake just had to be the one guy to go around bitching and moaning about it. Then pretend like he's not trying to get into that type of stuff... but still finds a way to take subliminal shots at people. Like Kendrick said... say somebody's name DIRECTLY. Don't throw rocks at people then stare off into empty space like you didn't just say some shit about somebody. Anybody real doesn't respect that shit...... at all.
@@thecraigtube322fr, push has taken one shot at drake since their beef 6 years ago yet drake hasn’t dropped a single project in the past 6 years where he hasn’t shot as push at least once. it won’t end no matter what kendrick does lmao
Bro. Just want to say thank you from south africa. I'm happy there's a YT channel that explains/breakdown/details all rap battles/beefs. Appreciate it. Keep going on from strength to strength ✊️👌🤙
Same here. I've heard about the subliminal disses from conversations with people throughout the past 6 or 7 years, but always thought they were reaching. I have always wondered who KD or Drake was talking about in their lines and this guy glued them pieces together perfectly! Job well done, got me intrigued on watching more of your dissecting videos.
Theres more to this and also this is a certain take were it paints drake as friendly buy i dont think kendrick would stand on the war unless he knows the real drake which is i dont think is a friendly nice guy.
Drake drops consistently and with a lot of success, but when Kendrick drops it’s always better than whatever Drake has out according to hip hop heads, journalists, and award shows. Kendrick has something that Drake wants and either can’t tap into or won’t because he’d rather be a mega pop star.
@@CussCavesHe had great succes yeah, but artistry is no. 1, popularity just means people play your things more, and it don't gotta be good and it shows. Drake hasn't had a great project since 2015
Drake says that the control verse will soon be forgotten. 10 years later everyone still remembers that verse without a doubt one of the iconic moments in hip hop.
iconic to who ? :D drake is not even a rap artist stop smoking crack people who actually listen to hip hop they dont care trash like drake exist hes just for kids idiots and media to talk about bro. no offence but dont put hip hop and drake to one sentence :D
😂😂😂. But also if you think about how crazy it is they've been making HIT records like on some weird Da Vinci code shit. But they definitely hate each other. Or Kendrick really meant it when he said he hates Drake period
Yeah i kind of agree. I don’t think Kendrick is going out of his way for the last decade to address Drake for no reason. That’s not even fitting for Kendrick’s brand. Drake is an arrogant guy that thinks he’s the best. A fake thug life Pop artist and Kendrick entered the industry to claim his spot as a legendary rapper.
Right? It was so very clear that his “nice” moves were from the narcissist playbook. His attempts to keep reminding Kendrick that he “made him” but saying it as if he is being nice or sharing up at shows as if to make people think he’s supportive is giving classic gaslight, needy & annoying.
lol I'm here watching this vid just waiting for this dude to breakdown the diss tracks released this past week, when l see that this was uploaded 5 months ago 😂😂😂
CONTROL wasn't a diss. It was a reckoning. A call to arms to his peers. Let's step these bars up. Let's step our creativity up. Cole got it. Push got it. Others got it. Some just got sensitive.
@@priztucker No. Cole didn't have an issue. Mac Miller didn't have an issue. Pusha didn't have an issue. Rocky didn't have an issue. Krit didn't. They all under stood the CONTEXT.
@@Geezytunechidrake drops club music Kendrick drops a different type of music Kendrick is all about class drake is all about fame the drive is different the response is different the outcome is different….drake being more successful because he garners more clicks and plays in Jamba Juice and planet fitness than Kendrick does in some stoners car doesn’t mean he’s a better “Rapper” so
Drake isn’t trying to be nice, it’s all a bunch of subliminals and authentic people see through it. He has secret obsessions with Kanye and Kendrick, people call Ye crazy whenever he mentions Drake but don’t realize Drake plays mind games all the time, he is a very strategic and extremely emotional individual.
@@J777__ he ain’t lying tho you can see the fake in drakes character. Ain’t no way if I hear you talking down on me all the time that ima kiss ass and congratulate you. We just gone leave it where it’s at
Everything shows with time. When. Drake was throwing subliminals at Kid Cudi when he was calling things out & I'm just like m.... Drake you were definitely in Kid Cudi pursuit of happiness video.
Great video but how could u not mention the Pusha-t diss tracks. I believed that it was relevant to the fact of Drakes shady character, ghost writing & the fact that Pusha-T gave Drake multiple L's. U mentioned Meek-mill
9:01 Control verse 11:20 Drake on competition in hip hop 15:41 Drake sons Kendrick for helping him become popular 21:30 Kendricks use of subliminal disses on breakfast club 27:20 Kendrick says he is the great white in the aquarium of hip-hop on deep water 32:27 Kendrick call himself the greatest rapper alive on the heart 4 33:05 Kendrick says Drake is not on Jay-Z’s level on the heart 4
Its a difference between responding competitive and taking it personal. Alot of rappers responded to kendrick. None made it personal. I think drake was emotional unnecessarily
He thought bro was cool and then he went and did that dumb ass control shit. I feel like he burned a lot of bridges with that. “just give it time we’ll see who’s around a decade from now” was everything about Kendrick’s current state now. J Cole and Drake have surpassed Kendrick.
@beatbyknobodye1581 how have they surpassed him? You know he wrote all the stars ft Sza including the hook. When he dropped damn which is his most commercial album and outsold drake. If he wants he can slide on the mainstream lane but he's more worried about making art not chase clout. He has more accolade them both of them combined. Not everyone is fame hungry including j Cole.
Bra huh????? Surpassed and your calling the control first dumb?? I'm not going to take shot at you king but I think view is defiantly Bias af@@beatbyknobodye1581
This is all so wacky for me as someone looking from outside. Thank you for making this video and letting me slightly into a culture that i barely know.
I used to play “black boy fly” for my son in the car while taking him to school. I wanted him to know that his dreams were valid. The best track off that album. Now I’m watching my black son fly everyday.
whether it’s you or an editor, but it’s noticeable and ABSOLUTELY appreciated. period. the way you edited this whole rap battle is next level, non biased and clear. THANK YOU.
exactly...and everybody folded except for Drake....he said if it's real then let it be real....and they got competitive with each other, everybody else except j cole have faded away
@@Headahhpodcast Exactly he pushed drake and drake pushed him, while the rest of them tried to play nice. This is their profession, they both wanted to be number 1, and Drake was the only other 1 really willing to fight for it, friends come and go
yea it helped me understand that drake is a crybaby ahhhh biii. but a lot of what this guy was claiming were disses are HUGE stretches lmfao. him referencing kendricks song "GOD" as a shade towards drake is damn near schizo posting 🤣
There’s multiple things to analyze between the Drake v Kendrick beef, but what’s always bothered me is how Drake moves the goal post once he realizes he can’t win. At first he wanted to be lyrical then he realized he could be the best at that then changed the metric to bodies of work. Then Kendrick dropped 2 all-time generation defining albums and he realized he couldn’t be the best at that so he moved the goalpost to Grammys. Then Kendrick tied Michael Jackson for the most nominations (& won a Pulitzer) then he changed the narrative to money. It’s a shallowness that has largely driven the trajectory of his career since “Views,” and you can actually see the steady decline of his work since he decided to be a profit-based brand instead of a true artist.
That's biased ASF because Drake has 51 nominations , and he has the highest and most billboard top 100 songs. Y'all meat riders just love making shit up. Drake been relevant hell of a lot longer than kdot. Plus kdot last album wasnt as good as his other shit. Granted drake on the decline but that's after what? 15 years?
Dam just say you don’t like Drake 💀 he’s better then Kendrick although it’s close , both are legends Drake and Cole are the best rappers alive right now
@@deeplypressurisation Nah, both diss tracks are fire for different reasons. Drake has great beats, confidence, more energy, and flow. Kendrick sounds angry, disappointed, giving Drake the therapy treatment, highlighting his talent on delivery with that last line. Both artists are making allegations of one another that are difficult to prove, who wins is up to who is telling the truth, if one is telling the truth, the other is going to jail, this is very heavy stuff…
First off, this video had more ads than awards won by these rapper combined. 2. This is the most in depth I went for both of these dudes, and I always thought drake was a popstar.
"Why keep being friendly to someone who doesn't respect you" The better question should be.. why you keep being friendly just so can fire more shots later? Always thought Drake was fake... This video solidified it
I work for a print shop. We print album covers, cd and dvd jewel case art, vhs and cassette tape insert and video game covers and related items. We printed, folded and glued 55,000 DAMN record sleeves for the initial run, if you don’t know, that’s an enormous amount. 3 months after release they ordered another 265,000 pieces. In the end we produced over a million. It’s the most album covers I’ve done for a single title in my 22 years of production print work.
If you’ve been listening to these two for all these years, to hear someone put the story together like this is legit mind blowing. Thank you so much for this video, the time, effort and quality is amazing. On a side note, ima put together a playlist of all these tracks on sequential order to listen to this epic back and forth lol.
Kendrick knew about the kind of person Drake is behind the scenes. Kendrick has openly spoken about how toxic the industry is, and we live in a day and age where we are seeing celebs (Diddy, R Kelly, Bill Cosby, Danny Masterson, Harvey Weinstein, Dan Schneider just to name a few) are being held accountable for their actions. Many of these people had rumors about their behavior swirling for YEARS and it’s now being confirmed as true. Drake’s reckoning is coming, and Kendrick is gonna end up on the right side of history.
it just bugs me that he pretended to be his friend at first. if you believe me to be a bad person, why be around me and call me a "good dude"? its strange
@@losteezyhe was learning the industry. And I think he took it as "part of the job" shi. He was ambitious enough to hang out with people he didn't like to achieve his dream when he was small, but the moment he got big he was conscious enough to cut those ties. It's not that out of stretch. People do it all the time in corporate settings. You put up with shitty boss during work, don't hang out with him outside of work as much as you can, the moment you got a promotion or better position in the same industry but different company, you completely cut ties from that person bcs you know what kind of person they are.
@@losteezy Maybe, just maybe, he didn't know about all that noise when he said the good things. Up until that point, Drake was helping Kendrick, and if that was all he saw at the time, he would have nothing but good things to say. It would appear something sure changed that though. Would have to be something pretty... bad I would think...
Congrats on the DOUBLE success of this video! Very well chronicled, especially with how it ties into what we're currently seeing between the two of them.
Who's here after the recent beef? 😂 This video is so informative (and really well edited, by the way)! This goes so far back and you kept saying Kendrick knew something...seems everything is coming out now!
It's wild seeing that this video is a year old considering what is going on right now! 9:32 "We could really use a moment like that right now in Hip-Hop." Dude, you CALLED IT HARD! 🤣🤣🤣
The early stages of this was all Drake. Drake taking offense when it wasn't intentional, Drake downplaying Kendrick's artistry, and drake running his mouth in interviews. You can say that Kendrick, at the end of the day, was going the subliminal route too, but his intention wasn't the same. We all know how a head to head battle would go. Drake might do numbers, but we all know Kendrick would body him. Kendrick's subliminals were more of a "hey, c'mon, you know you don't want to do this."
Really? How do you explain the fact that even though drake put him on during his comeup, Kendrick thought it was cool to laugh about DMX wanting to beat Drake up in public. Like that is enough to get anyone salty and it probably escalated from there. Just like how Freddie Gibbs laughed at benny when he got shot during a shootout and now they are enemies. It makes total sense but yall on Kendricks side because yall fake woke
He had issues with Chris Brown when he couldn't get Rihanna and went on to have issues with Meek Mill when Nicki said he takes him like a brother, Drake has an immature way of handling things and a history of taking things way too personal, in this one interview XXX said Drake left him hanging after contacting him about a feature before ghosting the kid and later stole his flow probably as a "power move", Drake also tried to push around Pusha-T, luckily Pusha found the perfect diss to put him in his place. You can't have a list this long of petty fights and still believe that you are the right one in all of this.
What the fuck is all that passive aggressive shit from Drake. He comes across as trying to look good in the eyes of the public while still beefing with Kendrick. Pathetic.
Kendrick wasn’t saying that Drake was better than him with that line lmao. He’s literally asking the girl “damn you listening to this dude, you think he better than me?!”
Man I was skeptical on how this might turn out when it came across my feed but I got to say, you nailed it and didn't take a bunch of wild liberties to make things seem more than what they were. Pretty much each point is well on point.
i usually don’t sit through long videos on this platform but as all the comments mentioned, this was amazingly put together. really enjoyed watching this, Man. keep up the amazing & hard work.
Drakes like a cook that writes the recipes (with assistance lol) for the McDonalds burgers and thinks he’s the best because McDonald’s sells more burgers than any other place. Meanwhile Kendrick is serving out that grass fed locally produced bison burger
@@mattdivito3581 lol not by the standard definition of pretentious. If you define pretentious as : “creates something that is of high quality “, than yes, Kendrick is ‘pretentious’😂
This isn't simply a case of "theres just some people you don't like no matter what". Kendrick is a genuine dude, and in the beginning was humble and respected Drake. Something happened, Kendrick saw something that he just couldn't let slide, who knows except Kendrick. But for that amount of animosity, it isn't something that can be forgotten just because that someone congratulated you on something. Streets and hoods have lines that you can never cross, and Drake has obviously crossed one of Kendricks lines. First R.Kelly, next Diddy, now the eyes of suspicion are focusing on Drake. The next 18 months you're going to see a lot of darkness exposed.
@Jumpingjackflash123 yeah, except there's been multiple instances over the years of BBL Drizzy actin... strange... around young women. There's also the fact that Baka Not Nice had a trafficking case against him which was mysteriously dropped when the girl withdrew her statement. I'm not particularly invested in either side, nor am I really into rap, but I've heard a LOT about Drake's tendencies over the years, whereas I don't think I've ever heard anything close to DA allegations surrounding Kendrick. Let me tell you, from an outsider's perspective, you sound like a dickrider 🤭 Even the way you said 'Drake's allegation' vs. 'Kendrick being a woman beater'. Not even alleged. You're claiming if you accept one you must accept both. You've clearly 'accepted' that Kendrick's a woman beater, have you also accepted that Drake's a PDF file? If you accept one, you must accept both...
Let’s be honest Kendrick is real. He is not about to be nice to someone who he thinks is fake. He’s not going to change how he feels just bc ppl may want him to. Drake being “nice” to Kendrick sounds like a game where he wants people to see him as the good guy. That’s why he always needs to show receipts. People who are innocent in situations don’t always have to play that “look at me I’m trying card”. They usually just give up. So idk I feel like Drake did something unforgivable and Kendrick lost his respect for him.
I mean. Drake really seems like the type of dude to smile in public but hate behind your back. Also, seems like the type dude to hold things over your head. Him taking Kendrick on show isn't what made Kendrick great. Kendrick's skill and authenticity are what make him great. Drake's kindness always seems so performative. Dude had an issue with Macklemore showing DM's to make himself look more righteous while pretending when Drake does similar things about Kendrick he pretends that he is actually being "righteous". If I were to guess, Kendrick probably didn't like the idea that nothing about Drake is real. He isn't from the streets, he doesn't write a lot of his songs, he thinks people OWE him respect, when there is nothing respectable about faking everything. It probably gets old when a dude who takes you on a tour tries to pretend you owe your entire career to that single tour. He doesn't it may have helped him advance his career faster, but Kendrick stands on his own work. He doesn't owe anything to Drake beyond thanking him for taking him on the tour. That's it. Oh, And Don't forget he probably doesn't like him because of one chord... Stats with A...
Kendrick didn't say anything nice about Drake because he is not a phony and a fake. Drake has this fake nice guy persona while still taking shots at you. Anyway I can't wait for the update.
It's funny how Drake got on Macklemore for making his texts to Kendrick public, but then he goes and does the same. All this trying to "squash it" sounds like when you hit your little brother and he starts crying, so you to try to make him feel better before mom comes and whoops you
He also did it with Anthony Fantano on the Needle Drop, but yeah don't worry Drake set Kendrick up with fake info like Drake said in his white flag song and resisted the urge to show the evidence when it would have made Kendrick look bad....😂 Right nah.
Drake tends to believe that when he puts people on that, they can't get bigger or become as big as him. He had this issue with two people now, Kendrick and The Weeknd.
What? Kendrick literally dissed everyone and Drake didn't take it the same as everyone else, what does his rise to fame have to do with anything? Did you watch the video?
Drake to me is a politician....He smiles and waves at the crowd and kisses babies but behind closed doors its something diff there's a reason Kendrick feels how he does towards this guy its coming from somewhere
i dont even listen to much rap (mobb deep, pac, immortal technique are a few i listen from time to time) but this shit is super entertaining and super well done video
Its so funny how Drake said Kendricks name in Family Matters, then Kendrick released the horror track like a ghost and stabbed Drake in his soul to kill his carrer. Then celebrated back home in his neighborhood with Not Like Us. Its a fucking movie
@Jumpingjackflash123man is a groomer he links them up then gets them when they are of age and he's not actually a good artist in my opinion. Just my opinion I've never liked his tunes. I never really liked kendrick either but then I never really listened I think k dot is fire tho I thought Cole was the best until I heard like that before I heard that tho was putting k dot down because of the big 3 line I heard first. Yeah but fuck drake knew he a groomer from years ago.
This was an amazingly written, edited, and researched video. I had no idea the beef lasted this long as I don't really listen to Drake and mostly just been listening to Kendrick. Excellent work on what would've been something that went over my head and also made me realize the growth Kendrick had on MMTBS. Not just artistically or lyrically but just as a person. Yet, on the flip side it also makes me realize how in these past 5 years Drake seems to have given up on being the best, deteriorating his mental, while having Kendrick rent free in his head. All the while Kendrick has been taking therapy, working on his mental health, and still striving to stay where his goal was from when he came in the game in the first place.
I dont know of you watch the whole video or you just a die hard kendrick fan but kendrick himself has Drake living rent free in his head. The start of the whole thing is definetly Drakes foult thus he took it emotionally and not only competitive
Need to have this as part 1 and then the great hip hop war of 2024 as part 2. This is incredibly unbiased content. This is probably my third time listening and I still can’t believe how deep this beef was before this year
Drake flip flopping like that bc he’s phony and Kendrick sniffed it out and stood on bidness! “F*** you and all your expectations I don't even want your congratulations”
Im not even worried about fact checking or going into debate about interpretations. This was it. Had me chained to the whole thing no breaks. Amazing storytelling, relevant content, well explained w/o doing too much. Also it felt neutral. Good job!

Your comment about thinking Kendrick never really respected Drake, I think he did, when he was starting out. But I imagine after touring with Drake, and being around him more and more, I think he started to see Drake in a different light. In the end, the fans don't know these people as well as they know each other. I'm thinking Kendrick *does* have good reasons behind his constant referencing of Drake.
Agreed
I thought so too, he must’ve heard and seen some things he did not agree with
Yeah Wayne told Drake to be himself and not try to be tough but he didn't listen
in King Kunta, Dot says "a rapper with ghost writers, what the f--- happened?" i think Kendrick had a profound "do not meet your heroes" kinda thing with Drake on tour (not that Drake was a hero, just borrowing lol) or later and that was it for him
That's what I picked up on.

They are two different types of artist. Drake is an entertainer and Kendrick is a real Lyricist and Story teller.. what Hip Hip really needs
What hip hop really is!
Hip hop can have both. Let's not forget hip hop was all about partying at first. Though I do agree that we need more sincere voices like Kendrick these days.
Well said, and true fans of hip hop recognize that fact.
@@sonarfieldsit was not about partying at first. It was about civil rights, the partying came later
@@idkwhybut... True, but it's still important that we accept both
As a true lover of music, I have been following this beef too, and you did an AMAZING JOB. I’ve been telling ppl they been at it for years.
Someone wrote under another video..
J.Cole touches your heart, Kendrick touches your soul and Drake touches your kids.
💀
nice
Oooooofffffff...... 💯. Ek j cole playing I'm good. Kendrick taking the healer role. Drake... well.. ehhhh he's sold out. It's all bad. Nailed it!
Drake makes me feel like someone put their finger in my navel with a long, painted nail and then turned his finger like a screw. He is in need of a new residence with a couple of *Screws*. 😊
😂😂😂
Don’t forget Kendrick won The Pulitzer …it took a surprising turn when it was announced in 2018 that rapper Kendrick Lamar would be the recipient of the music award for his album DAMN. (2017). Kendrick was the first musical artist from a genre other than jazz or classical to earn this honor… great video had no clue all this going on

@@noahxzarklol, I was gonna say the same…
As in this guy is a certified LAUREATE! No one wants the smoke.
@kingebin9830 100% agree. I can imagine Kendrick and Bob having this deep meaningful beautiful conversation that leads to a cool friendship… both poets of their time…
Whites love to give Kendrick awards, it’s fine.
You keep saying Drake is trying to be friendly. I don't see it that way at all and that’s probably why Kendrick doesn’t like him. He throws shots then plays nice. That’s strategy. Kendrick is saying he sees the chess moves and isn’t falling for them. He’s keeping the same energy
Kendrick started it drake tried to print it down let's be honest Kendrick wants it this way. The guy could have literally just stopped talking to Drake and keep it moving
@@jameslight4391he don’t want no smoke with drake.
@@jameslight4391 Drake literally could have just stopped doing sassy ass shit and pretending like he's showing love... but then throwing subtle ass bars about dudes in his songs. It goes both ways. Drake wants to pretend like he's ready for that smoke... but also tries to put on a facade for the public like he just wants to show love to everybody. That's some hoe ass shit. Why is he literally the ONLY person in the entire industry that took that "Control" verse so personal? He wasn't the only one mentioned on that verse... but somehow he's the only one to bitch about it. That's partly why Kendrick doesn't fuck w/ him. Kendrick made it a friendly competitive. Everybody Kendrick mentioned took it as a friendly competition. But Drake just had to be the one guy to go around bitching and moaning about it. Then pretend like he's not trying to get into that type of stuff... but still finds a way to take subliminal shots at people. Like Kendrick said... say somebody's name DIRECTLY. Don't throw rocks at people then stare off into empty space like you didn't just say some shit about somebody. Anybody real doesn't respect that shit...... at all.
@@jameslight4391 i hope that by now, you are fully convinced that it's better to keep dissing drake than to stop dissing drake cuz he won't stop
@@thecraigtube322fr, push has taken one shot at drake since their beef 6 years ago yet drake hasn’t dropped a single project in the past 6 years where he hasn’t shot as push at least once. it won’t end no matter what kendrick does lmao

For a person who didn't really realize the extent of this, this video captivated me for the full 47 minutes. Amazing job with editing and commentary!
Me too. watched in the middle of the night.
Same here. I've heard about the subliminal disses from conversations with people throughout the past 6 or 7 years, but always thought they were reaching. I have always wondered who KD or Drake was talking about in their lines and this guy glued them pieces together perfectly! Job well done, got me intrigued on watching more of your dissecting videos.
Same tho.
Theres more to this and also this is a certain take were it paints drake as friendly buy i dont think kendrick would stand on the war unless he knows the real drake which is i dont think is a friendly nice guy.
Same! My money is on Kendrick having some Epstein level dirty on drake that he just won’t say….. but I want him to say it so bad hahahaha
Drake drops consistently and with a lot of success, but when Kendrick drops it’s always better than whatever Drake has out according to hip hop heads, journalists, and award shows. Kendrick has something that Drake wants and either can’t tap into or won’t because he’d rather be a mega pop star.
You right . But drake can do things kdot can’t even try to do ……
@@CussCavesHe had great succes yeah, but artistry is no. 1, popularity just means people play your things more, and it don't gotta be good and it shows. Drake hasn't had a great project since 2015
Drake started as an emcee, he was rapping with little brother, common, etc. then he went pop star.
@@DamienGOD1128 imo artistry is one of two things . Popular secular to the artist and they hope others like or understand. Drake wins in both

The Control verse is just nuts, that shit is a sign of respect if he mentioned your name. He sees you as ACTUAL competition.
I love big sean, wale. And mack.. they are not on the same level as the big three.
Being seen as competition by someone you feel like you helped bring up doesn’t feel like a compliment though

Drake says that the control verse will soon be forgotten. 10 years later everyone still remembers that verse without a doubt one of the iconic moments in hip hop.
iconic to who ? :D drake is not even a rap artist stop smoking crack people who actually listen to hip hop they dont care trash like drake exist hes just for kids idiots and media to talk about bro. no offence but dont put hip hop and drake to one sentence :D
Tbf he's probably the reason people still remembers it though? it was the start of the whole feud between these 2 big artists.

Absolutely did that lmao
You are so Canadian that you thought every peaceful looking gesture from Drake was genuine and pure-hearted. Great video
Right being nice while simultaneously sneak dissing is not nice.
Exactly! this guy definitely has a Drake bias.
Yeah i kind of agree. I don’t think Kendrick is going out of his way for the last decade to address Drake for no reason. That’s not even fitting for Kendrick’s brand. Drake is an arrogant guy that thinks he’s the best. A fake thug life Pop artist and Kendrick entered the industry to claim his spot as a legendary rapper.
Right? It was so very clear that his “nice” moves were from the narcissist playbook. His attempts to keep reminding Kendrick that he “made him” but saying it as if he is being nice or sharing up at shows as if to make people think he’s supportive is giving classic gaslight, needy & annoying.
Yep the bias was more than evident, especially the way he had to end the video, he made his feelings known
So many videos and this is the best video I have watched which explains everything. You do a great job dude.
Drakes been acting like a crazy ex for years and Kendrick finally gave him the attention he wanted.

He thought bro was cool and then he went and did that dumb ass control shit. I feel like he burned a lot of bridges with that.

its not really a comparison video. its an explanation video
Exactlyyyyyy
There’s multiple things to analyze between the Drake v Kendrick beef, but what’s always bothered me is how Drake moves the goal post once he realizes he can’t win. At first he wanted to be lyrical then he realized he could be the best at that then changed the metric to bodies of work. Then Kendrick dropped 2 all-time generation defining albums and he realized he couldn’t be the best at that so he moved the goalpost to Grammys. Then Kendrick tied Michael Jackson for the most nominations (& won a Pulitzer) then he changed the narrative to money. It’s a shallowness that has largely driven the trajectory of his career since “Views,” and you can actually see the steady decline of his work since he decided to be a profit-based brand instead of a true artist.
Lol kinda did the same thing with Push.
That's biased ASF because Drake has 51 nominations , and he has the highest and most billboard top 100 songs. Y'all meat riders just love making shit up. Drake been relevant hell of a lot longer than kdot. Plus kdot last album wasnt as good as his other shit. Granted drake on the decline but that's after what? 15 years?
Naw his music declined after he stop using ghostwriters, and used up all the ghostwriting work in the vault.

"Why keep being friendly to someone who doesn't respect you"
The better question should be.. why you keep being friendly just so can fire more shots later?
Always thought Drake was fake... This video solidified it
I work for a print shop. We print album covers, cd and dvd jewel case art, vhs and cassette tape insert and video game covers and related items. We printed, folded and glued 55,000 DAMN record sleeves for the initial run, if you don’t know, that’s an enormous amount. 3 months after release they ordered another 265,000 pieces. In the end we produced over a million. It’s the most album covers I’ve done for a single title in my 22 years of production print work.

Back here after the 'Not Like Us' music video 💯
Kendrick knew about the kind of person Drake is behind the scenes. Kendrick has openly spoken about how toxic the industry is, and we live in a day and age where we are seeing celebs (Diddy, R Kelly, Bill Cosby, Danny Masterson, Harvey Weinstein, Dan Schneider just to name a few) are being held accountable for their actions. Many of these people had rumors about their behavior swirling for YEARS and it’s now being confirmed as true. Drake’s reckoning is coming, and Kendrick is gonna end up on the right side of history.
This is exactly it
it just bugs me that he pretended to be his friend at first. if you believe me to be a bad person, why be around me and call me a "good dude"? its strange
Yet Kendrick went to Spotify and said he’d pull his music if they didn’t keep R. Kelly’s in rotation.
@@losteezyhe was learning the industry. And I think he took it as "part of the job" shi. He was ambitious enough to hang out with people he didn't like to achieve his dream when he was small, but the moment he got big he was conscious enough to cut those ties. It's not that out of stretch. People do it all the time in corporate settings. You put up with shitty boss during work, don't hang out with him outside of work as much as you can, the moment you got a promotion or better position in the same industry but different company, you completely cut ties from that person bcs you know what kind of person they are.
@@losteezy Maybe, just maybe, he didn't know about all that noise when he said the good things. Up until that point, Drake was helping Kendrick, and if that was all he saw at the time, he would have nothing but good things to say. It would appear something sure changed that though. Would have to be something pretty... bad I would think...

It's wild seeing that this video is a year old considering what is going on right now! 9:32 "We could really use a moment like that right now in Hip-Hop." Dude, you CALLED IT HARD! 🤣🤣🤣
The early stages of this was all Drake. Drake taking offense when it wasn't intentional, Drake downplaying Kendrick's artistry, and drake running his mouth in interviews. You can say that Kendrick, at the end of the day, was going the subliminal route too, but his intention wasn't the same. We all know how a head to head battle would go. Drake might do numbers, but we all know Kendrick would body him. Kendrick's subliminals were more of a "hey, c'mon, you know you don't want to do this."
Really? How do you explain the fact that even though drake put him on during his comeup, Kendrick thought it was cool to laugh about DMX wanting to beat Drake up in public. Like that is enough to get anyone salty and it probably escalated from there. Just like how Freddie Gibbs laughed at benny when he got shot during a shootout and now they are enemies. It makes total sense but yall on Kendricks side because yall fake woke
Worst part is that if they did go head to head drake could win and we wouldn’t know if he wrote it
Agreed drake built like a pop star
We head to head now so what’s up😁
Drop and give me 50 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
He had issues with Chris Brown when he couldn't get Rihanna and went on to have issues with Meek Mill when Nicki said he takes him like a brother, Drake has an immature way of handling things and a history of taking things way too personal, in this one interview XXX said Drake left him hanging after contacting him about a feature before ghosting the kid and later stole his flow probably as a "power move", Drake also tried to push around Pusha-T, luckily Pusha found the perfect diss to put him in his place.

So basically Kendrick is pretentious.
@@mattdivito3581 lol not by the standard definition of pretentious. If you define pretentious as : “creates something that is of high quality “, than yes, Kendrick is ‘pretentious’😂
This isn't simply a case of "theres just some people you don't like no matter what". Kendrick is a genuine dude, and in the beginning was humble and respected Drake. Something happened, Kendrick saw something that he just couldn't let slide, who knows except Kendrick. But for that amount of animosity, it isn't something that can be forgotten just because that someone congratulated you on something. Streets and hoods have lines that you can never cross, and Drake has obviously crossed one of Kendricks lines.
First R.Kelly, next Diddy, now the eyes of suspicion are focusing on Drake. The next 18 months you're going to see a lot of darkness exposed.

I'm not particularly invested in either side, nor am I really into rap, but I've heard a LOT about Drake's tendencies over the years, whereas I don't think I've ever heard anything close to DA allegations surrounding Kendrick.
Let me tell you, from an outsider's perspective, you sound like a dickrider 🤭 Even the way you said 'Drake's allegation' vs. 'Kendrick being a woman beater'. Not even alleged. You're claiming if you accept one you must accept both. You've clearly 'accepted' that Kendrick's a woman beater, have you also accepted that Drake's a PDF file?
If you accept one, you must accept both...
Great work, big up, could be on Netflix 👌🏼👌🏼
Let’s be honest Kendrick is real. He is not about to be nice to someone who he thinks is fake. He’s not going to change how he feels just bc ppl may want him to. Drake being “nice” to Kendrick sounds like a game where he wants people to see him as the good guy. That’s why he always needs to show receipts. People who are innocent in situations don’t always have to play that “look at me I’m trying card”. They usually just give up. So idk I feel like Drake did something unforgivable and Kendrick lost his respect for him.
Yes.ppl like Kendrick is needed
I mean. Drake really seems like the type of dude to smile in public but hate behind your back. Also, seems like the type dude to hold things over your head. Him taking Kendrick on show isn't what made Kendrick great. Kendrick's skill and authenticity are what make him great. Drake's kindness always seems so performative. Dude had an issue with Macklemore showing DM's to make himself look more righteous while pretending when Drake does similar things about Kendrick he pretends that he is actually being "righteous". If I were to guess, Kendrick probably didn't like the idea that nothing about Drake is real. He isn't from the streets, he doesn't write a lot of his songs, he thinks people OWE him respect, when there is nothing respectable about faking everything. It probably gets old when a dude who takes you on a tour tries to pretend you owe your entire career to that single tour. He doesn't it may have helped him advance his career faster, but Kendrick stands on his own work. He doesn't owe anything to Drake beyond thanking him for taking him on the tour. That's it. Oh, And Don't forget he probably doesn't like him because of one chord... Stats with A...
This is a man thing! You really thing you know what makes a man soft? 🤫
Sometimes perpetrator really do be like that, after hurting you asking, "you good"?
@@nerdjournalYeah, it ties into the liar thing kendrick points it about drake
Kendrick didn't say anything nice about Drake because he is not a phony and a fake. Drake has this fake nice guy persona while still taking shots at you.
Anyway I can't wait for the update.
Kanye west said that
It's funny how Drake got on Macklemore for making his texts to Kendrick public, but then he goes and does the same. All this trying to "squash it" sounds like when you hit your little brother and he starts crying, so you to try to make him feel better before mom comes and whoops you
He also did it with Anthony Fantano on the Needle Drop, but yeah don't worry Drake set Kendrick up with fake info like Drake said in his white flag song and resisted the urge to show the evidence when it would have made Kendrick look bad....😂 Right nah.
@@Pug8yeah, "I made the whole world think I'm a pdf-file! I win!"
This was done so… well: in content, visuals, etc. Very entertaining, kept my attention all 47 mins. 🔥Very pleased, worth it. 👏🏾
Drake tends to believe that when he puts people on that, they can't get bigger or become as big as him. He had this issue with two people now, Kendrick and The Weeknd.
He wouldn’t have said bars like that if they weren’t beefing🤦🏿♂️
What? Kendrick literally dissed everyone and Drake didn't take it the same as everyone else, what does his rise to fame have to do with anything? Did you watch the video?
He's like Nicki Minaj in that
@@timmyspov Doofy, that wasn't even a diss. It was a competition and Drake the only one that took it to heart. Big ass baby.
@@Akid0Kag3 You literally said the same thing I said and replaced the word diss with competition smh. You gotta be like 12-18 I bet money on it!!
You're definitely right about Sean's verse on Control. One of his best.
Drake to me is a politician....He smiles and waves at the crowd and kisses babies but behind closed doors its something diff there's a reason Kendrick feels how he does towards this guy its coming from somewhere
Yeah, kisses babies..
i dont even listen to much rap (mobb deep, pac, immortal technique are a few i listen from time to time) but this shit is super entertaining and super well done video
Its so funny how Drake said Kendricks name in Family Matters, then Kendrick released the horror track like a ghost and stabbed Drake in his soul to kill his carrer. Then celebrated back home in his neighborhood with Not Like Us. Its a fucking movie
@Jumpingjackflash123we ain’t reading allat
@@d4n1ellaak den u go bak 2 wurk
@akuatheaquarius ya we know bud... you listen to Kendrick
@Jumpingjackflash123man is a groomer he links them up then gets them when they are of age and he's not actually a good artist in my opinion.
Just my opinion I've never liked his tunes.
I never really liked kendrick either but then I never really listened I think k dot is fire tho I thought Cole was the best until I heard like that before I heard that tho was putting k dot down because of the big 3 line I heard first.
Yeah but fuck drake knew he a groomer from years ago.
@Jumpingjackflash123 sounds like you just defending someone who could be a pedo. 🤷
This was an amazingly written, edited, and researched video. I had no idea the beef lasted this long as I don't really listen to Drake and mostly just been listening to Kendrick. Excellent work on what would've been something that went over my head and also made me realize the growth Kendrick had on MMTBS. Not just artistically or lyrically but just as a person. Yet, on the flip side it also makes me realize how in these past 5 years Drake seems to have given up on being the best, deteriorating his mental, while having Kendrick rent free in his head. All the while Kendrick has been taking therapy, working on his mental health, and still striving to stay where his goal was from when he came in the game in the first place.
I dont know of you watch the whole video or you just a die hard kendrick fan but kendrick himself has Drake living rent free in his head. The start of the whole thing is definetly Drakes foult thus he took it emotionally and not only competitive
And not naming any names, but it got as salty as the streets on snow day lol.
@@nicknameesco3986watched the whole video and Drake still a fake axx bitch
Seeing what has unfolded, this might be one of the greatest RUclips videos ever
Need to have this as part 1 and then the great hip hop war of 2024 as part 2. This is incredibly unbiased content. This is probably my third time listening and I still can’t believe how deep this beef was before this year
I love how drake tried”squashing the beef” but still dissed him way more
Drake flip flopping like that bc he’s phony and Kendrick sniffed it out and stood on bidness!
“F*** you and all your expectations
I don't even want your congratulations”
You mean, **but still had ghost writers dissed him way more**
😂 That's the bipolar side about Drake
And still lost 😂
It seems like he tried to squash beef every time Kendrick out sold him
Im not even worried about fact checking or going into debate about interpretations. This was it. Had me chained to the whole thing no breaks. Amazing storytelling, relevant content, well explained w/o doing too much. Also it felt neutral. Good job!
After everything that’s happened recently, this video actually put all the pieces in place, idk about you.
@@davidb516No, I agree. I watched this and wrote my comment after hearing ”gimme 50”, and even though that and metro/future latest is not covered, everything in this vid made sense.
@@djwolde crazy man 🤯 I didn’t even know it went this deep. Shits gonna get heavy in the upcoming months. We feasting for years after this one
Drake: lets squash the beef
also Drake: *takes more subliminal shots at Kendrick
It’s passive aggressive and weak.
@@mtc-j9iToxic and even manipulative behavior
