While I could argue Lift Yourself is also a disstrumental it’s crazy it’s also one for Drake. When this many people hate you I don’t think it’s a coincidence
Kendrick Lamar has a Pulitzer Prize for writing lyrics. Drake never stod a chance. He was outmatched and outperformed, and it wasn't close, Drake never had the raw talent to beat Kendrick. He should have picked an opponent who was an entertainer like him, like the Weekend or something.
People are so brain dead stupid its hilarious. I can't wait for months from now when the songs fall off as hard as Kendrick did and nobody pays any attention to them anymore. Literally the only reason these Kendrick songs are getting this much attention is because of all the hype and the dude hasn't dropped anything good in a decade. Kendricks songs have 0 replayability and when we look back at this Family Matters and Pushups will be the only songs that age well and people remember because they're actual good songs with actual bars
Kendrick played it smart he attacked Aubrey's ego to box him in. His verse on Like That was to lure him in and get him out of his comfort zone. It was over after that. Kendrick systematically eviscerated him lyrically, and then danced at his repass with Not Like Us.
@@daveinhell7476 that control "diss" was very mild and was aimed at the whole hip hop industry not just drake. It was meant as a sort of friendly competitive gesture for all artists in the industry to step up their game. A lot of other artists felt the same way, that the rap game was too soft and needed more spice, except for p drizzy he took it wayy too personally😭

One of the most genius moves by Kendrick was by making both meet the grahams and especially Not like us, copyright free. Meaning it was being played everywhere, you’ll hear it on sports broadcasts, at sporting events, at night clubs, anywhere there’s hip hop music being played. Drake cannot escape not like us purely because of this decision. Genius

Kendrick is hip hop, a Pulitzer prize winning lyricist, and he’s the better rapper. It’s as simple as that. Never doubted he’d win against the pop artist (Drake).
No that is not what I mean. Kendrick "diss track" basically claimed Drake was a pimp. a pedo one but still. Crazy how Kendrick made comments on Drake being alive, and how he would rather have him dead/ Kendrick is not about that life and wont touch Drake I bet. Kendrick might have ghetto buddies, but he has made it clear he is not about that life. Does this make sense?
@@MatthewZmusician209 "ghetto buddies"?? 😂😂😂 I think you're a bit out of your depths in regards to anything to do with the culture so it may be best that you not speculate on how "hood" someone is since it's not your experience.
I think Kendrick's own allegations against Drake also discredited what he said back, honestly. Makes it seem the guy is making stuff up, when quite a bit of the stuff Kendrick said about him is already proven to be true. It doesn't hit as well when a guy with his own family matters brings up someone else's family matters.
He's more like Beyonce. Taylor writes her shit and it's relatable. Drake just steals culture and has others write shit that exemplifies a character he plays.
There's absolutely no way "ghostwriters" could write half of the shit drake was saying it was so personal and could only go from Drake himself. That excuse is getting so old.

I don't think this will kill Drake's career but it definitely hurt it badly. His record label gave him a $400mil deal and they are already mad asf because they see his appeal dropping off a cliff. Even if he finishes his deal he won't get offered that kind of money again. The man has been taking way too many L's since battling KDot.
Crazy thing about that deal is that it's worth "as much as $400m", which means the 400 was a hard cap on his potential earnings. Hence why K Dot asked what his percentages were. I guarantee they duped Aubrey into putting his percentages on sliding scale. 😂 No way he sees 400 off that now.

I vividly remember watching a interview around that time where Drake was really in his feelings bout that shit. The only rapper that got in their feelings bout it too 🤣
There is an interview of Pusha T where he says that he and Kendrick shot the Nosetalgia music video after listening to Control lmao. Pusha understood that it was a competitive move meant to excite the game, some olympic shit, and didn't take it personal. A show of someone who is secure of himself and his place in the culture vs someone who wasn't.
Moral of the story, Drake being sensitive from the Control verse when it wasn’t a threatening diss to anyone that got mentioned but just tough love being shown
Kendrick is outdoing Drake with "Not Like Us" with it being a banger, lyrics that fit K Dot's MO, and Kendrick removed the copyright claim so now more people are motivated to do more videos to the song
The planning and execution on this was perfect. Kendrick found a lot of dirt on Drake, had a mole to feed him info on Family Matters, he knew Drake's plans for the beef, and went in prepared. The timing and precision of these releases was surgical, and he still kept it surface-level at first and fired several warning shots. 6.16 was like an emotional and spiritual perparation for what he knew was going to be a brutal, ugly war that he felt conflicted about, but both FM and MTG were ready to drop at that point. He was waiting for Drake's move, the arrogant celebrity boy took it there, and just as promised KDot ripped his fake persona apart. Drake was given more chances than he deserved and he ignored all of them
The "They not like us" line is absolutely genius in manipulating public opinion. It literally makes the question of Kendrick vs Drake a Us vs Them thing. And if you don't want to be "them" you have to side with Kendrick. It makes really hard for anyone to say out loud they are on Drake's side.
Your wrong FPS was the straw that broke the camels back… Drake never should’ve been held in the same respect as K-Dot or Cole he’s pop and anyone that thinks he’s gutter, hood or lyrical is a suburbanite.
I only had Drake in the big 3 purely because of numbers. Thats it. He’s an entertainer. Great at it. But that’s where it stops. His numbers are about to take a hit. At least until his stans realize Drake ..is not someone you wanna rep.
The biggest issue with Drake was that he and his team just completely misunderstood Mr Morale. What it was, what it meant, what it said about Kendrick. That really was when Drake lost this beef- his inability to understand actual lyricism, funnily enough
@@millionmiledriverKendrick is a true lyricist bringing food for the mind and the soul. Whereas Drake is mostly just an entertainer/actor performing lyrics he rarely writes by himself. Two very different ways to approach hip hop
@@deceiver444 it disappoints me to see the beef. Kendrick is nice and yes his talent is great. I just can’t see my man Drake fade away to some allegations. If I’m wrong I’m wrong. 😆
I don’t think Drake’s career is “over” but his reputation is permanently damaged for sure. He still has Stans who won’t admit that he was bodied by Kendrick and a lot of Drake’s fans don’t really listen to hip-hop so they probably didn’t follow the back and forth of the diss tracks. It seems like day by day the accusations Drake threw at Kendrick are falling apart as well; while the riddler is on twitter showing that Drake didn’t “set up” fake intel for Kendrick, pretty certain Drake is hiding a daughter too. He should def be forced to take a paternity test because he denied having a son at first too. The idea that Drake fed Kendrick damaging information without having any proof or receipts whatsoever, it’s laughable and the fact that Kendrick had Meet the Grahams ready as a response to Family Matters makes it pretty clear that OVO had/has a leaker who at the very least, let Kendrick know the angle Drake was coming from in his track, allowing Kendrick to drop Meet the Grahams immediately after with lines directly addressing what Drake said.
Drake has been mad since the control verse. He just wasn't bold enough to go directly at him, then. He probably should have kept that energy a decade later.
" not only ending the beef, but potentially ending Drake, his brand, His image, and his career. . . *forever* " only thing us #1 haters can do is hope 🤞
It's funny cause Drake featured on Poetic Justice, which would've been a banging tune if it didn't feature his verse. Cause obviously he misinterpreted the brief. It's talking about the seedy nature of love rather than it being an outright love song (hence the line "I could never right my wrongs unless I write 'em down for real - P.S.").
It's ironic because nobody would've given a shit about Poetic justice if drake wasn't on it. Drake completely showed up kendrick on that and the one reason it was popular
@@BrayZapthis take is false, it was a fourth single push on what was by that time considered album of the decade. Drake also wasn’t the we pull he is today, he was gaining popularity but still in a crowded market, when music was not as trash
I understood from day 1 why Cole apologized! I didn’t understand why he dissed Kendrick in the first place knowing they are REAL friends. Cole is a real one for not letting the internet trick him into doing something he knew he didn’t really wanna do 👏🏽
I keep thinking that Drake was looking at this battle more as a businessman, as if he thought that, yeah, we will be a lil' bit petty, then we finish and in a year we do a couple of couple collabs and then we both gain money', thought the whole thing he never seemed serious, he never understood what he was getting into, Kendrick freaking hates what he is and what he has done, this was the moment Kendrick was waiting for and like a fool, he jumped into the lion's den thinking it would be another playdate. In the end, Kendrick was right, Aubrey is not a one of them, he is just Malibu's most wanted, and if he is right, he is going to be Canada's most wanted too.
@@JojosupremeIQ195I actually didn’t find this line to be bad. “I like drake when he sings”. It was from a RDC world skit. Now let me be clear, I’m a k-dot fan lol. Drake got smoked in battle but I thought this line was funny, not a diss but just funny.
Problem with this beef is it wasn't about who the better artist was, it's just who's character could be called out more. Saying someone is a pedo doesn't equate to "bars" and "being a better musical artist". Drake won hands down
@@BrayZapbrother, you're a grown ass man, half of your content is about drake. We know you have a bias towards him but defending him isn't going to make him appear and give you the hug your dad didn't give you. Drake lost, by a landslide. The PDF file accusations have to be investigated as well as the domestic abuse ones, so you can't even say "oh but it's not proven so we can't use that as reliable information" because the only argument drake had was "yo kid ain't yours" "you beat yo wife" "you're short" "my shoe size is bigger than yours" "I have bigger numbers in the charts" Man drake lost this since the moment he used ai 2Pac and Kendrick dropped euphoria.
In my mind, the reason I was like “…….Drizzy is crazy going after this guy” cause …..seems like everyone has forgotten how Kdot cut his teeth back in the BET cipher days. The guy is a born battle rapper. Drizzy just doesn’t have those skills. It’s crazy to think he had the hubris to do this.
Honestly i never understood how people can even listen to drake, the biggest industry plant the world ever saw, knedricks last shit has more talent than drakes entire career
I don’t know why people give credit to his lyrics when he has ghost writers. When I found out about that I dropped drake, and that was at least 5 years ago. “You lied”
Seriously, back when i was in highschool everyone i knew was meat riding Drake, i personally never liked ANY of his songs not even the ones that made him famous or are consider his "bangers" he just felt generic to me and over the years when the milli bobby brown thing starting popping up, plus the memes of him being goofy asf, i'm just glad Kendrick put an end to this wannabe rapper
ngl though, that Dave Frees bar against Kendrick doesnt even make sense as an attack since it just makes KDot legit look like a better man for stepping up and taking responsibility of a kid who may not be his own blood but one he loves as his own all the same meanwhile Drake keeps denying children of having a father and leaving their baby mammas in the dirt like a coward
@@fjabri nah not crazy. just calling out an ass bar for what it is. Drake just likes to look like he goes hard but he really doesn’t get what that means
In an alternate universe, I kinda wish J Cole didn’t apologize because I wonder what dirt anyone could have on someone so chill and unproblematic. What would a diss on Jcole even look like? Especially from Kendrick.
And the dumb thing about this all? Drake was warned years ago not to portray something he is not... by Lil Wayne. Him running away from Pusha T should've been an indication. But it really makes me wonder why he thought it was a good idea to go up against Kendrick.
Like president Obama Said, drake is an entertainer. Kendrick is the culture. Kendrick said he doesn’t mind Drake being an entertainer but REALLY takes issue with him cosplaying as a hardcore rapper & and throwing jabs at him. It’s an identity issue more than just personal insults.
*Kendrick: Has lived, seen, witness what he raps about, from the streets and a struggle upbringing. He is essentially Hip Hop in his rapping.* *Drake: **_Acts_** out what he perceives thru fame & fortune. The clubs, after parties, the women fans, the groupie whores. He is essentially an actor playing a role. Kendrick attacks him saying your character has become your persona of life.*
There’s like a 5 second silence near the 2 mins mark and it’s really jarring. You should put a note on screen or make an edit note voiceover if things got taken down due to a sample. Makes it really not flow and ruins the vid
I just clicked on this video because I'm a kendrick fanboy but hey- this was really well produced! Best of luck to you and I'm sure you'll continue to grow.

Pusha understood that it was a competitive move meant to excite the game, some olympic shit, and didn't take it personal. A show of someone who is secure of himself and his place in the culture vs someone who wasn't.
“and nothing’s been the same since they dropped control
and tucked a sensitive rapper back in his pajama clothes”
Moral of the story, Drake being sensitive from the Control verse when it wasn’t a threatening diss to anyone that got mentioned but just tough love being shown
Kendrick is outdoing Drake with "Not Like Us" with it being a banger, lyrics that fit K Dot's MO, and Kendrick removed the copyright claim so now more people are motivated to do more videos to the song
The planning and execution on this was perfect. Kendrick found a lot of dirt on Drake, had a mole to feed him info on Family Matters, he knew Drake's plans for the beef, and went in prepared. The timing and precision of these releases was surgical, and he still kept it surface-level at first and fired several warning shots. 6.16 was like an emotional and spiritual perparation for what he knew was going to be a brutal, ugly war that he felt conflicted about, but both FM and MTG were ready to drop at that point. He was waiting for Drake's move, the arrogant celebrity boy took it there, and just as promised KDot ripped his fake persona apart. Drake was given more chances than he deserved and he ignored all of them
Perfect comment.
Drake's mistake was thinking it was his game. Kdot only allowed him to play.
The end of Meet the Grahams scared me so much. That beat is so eerie.
The "They not like us" line is absolutely genius in manipulating public opinion.
It literally makes the question of Kendrick vs Drake a Us vs Them thing. And if you don't want to be "them" you have to side with Kendrick.
It makes really hard for anyone to say out loud they are on Drake's side.
It wad always us vs them....
Your wrong FPS was the straw that broke the camels back… Drake never should’ve been held in the same respect as K-Dot or Cole he’s pop and anyone that thinks he’s gutter, hood or lyrical is a suburbanite.

True. Drake was calling himself goated in that song too SMH
I only had Drake in the big 3 purely because of numbers. Thats it. He’s an entertainer. Great at it. But that’s where it stops. His numbers are about to take a hit. At least until his stans realize Drake ..is not someone you wanna rep.
@@JohnWickPotter Yes 👏 this is true.
The biggest issue with Drake was that he and his team just completely misunderstood Mr Morale. What it was, what it meant, what it said about Kendrick. That really was when Drake lost this beef- his inability to understand actual lyricism, funnily enough
Been a Drake fan and Kendrick semi-hater for years. Now I am starting to see the light. 💡 👀
I appreciate the honesty.
Kendrick is heavy… but worth the listen…
@@EvonneLindiwe I am starting to learn. His style is unique and difficult to grasp at first.
@@millionmiledriverKendrick is a true lyricist bringing food for the mind and the soul. Whereas Drake is mostly just an entertainer/actor performing lyrics he rarely writes by himself.
Two very different ways to approach hip hop
@@deceiver444 it disappoints me to see the beef. Kendrick is nice and yes his talent is great. I just can’t see my man Drake fade away to some allegations. If I’m wrong I’m wrong. 😆
I don’t think Drake’s career is “over” but his reputation is permanently damaged for sure. He still has Stans who won’t admit that he was bodied by Kendrick and a lot of Drake’s fans don’t really listen to hip-hop so they probably didn’t follow the back and forth of the diss tracks.
It seems like day by day the accusations Drake threw at Kendrick are falling apart as well; while the riddler is on twitter showing that Drake didn’t “set up” fake intel for Kendrick, pretty certain Drake is hiding a daughter too. He should def be forced to take a paternity test because he denied having a son at first too.
The idea that Drake fed Kendrick damaging information without having any proof or receipts whatsoever, it’s laughable and the fact that Kendrick had Meet the Grahams ready as a response to Family Matters makes it pretty clear that OVO had/has a leaker who at the very least, let Kendrick know the angle Drake was coming from in his track, allowing Kendrick to drop Meet the Grahams immediately after with lines directly addressing what Drake said.
Hiphop will always beat pop music
Or maybe hip hop is the new pop
Hip Hop in some ways is the new “Pop Music”. Pop = Popular.
@@beinningandendNaw hip hop is hip hop. Colonizers stay tryna change ish 🤣🤣🤣. They not like us
@@stephordless8876I don’t like either that much but seeing this history is nice. It’s definitely not an “ordinary” time.
Drake has been mad since the control verse. He just wasn't bold enough to go directly at him, then. He probably should have kept that energy a decade later.
It wasn't anything personal, it was just "i can take you all on, try me!!" It's just stupid of drake
@ratedr7845 cuz he doesn't understand the culture. He's so sensitive but wants to be considered the king. It doesn't work like that.
@@Dru2maBoii he found that out the hard way, he might have to move differently now, drop that "luvah boi" act
@ratedr7845 if he's smart, he'll stay away from any drama for a while.
@@Dru2maBoii i agree
Hands down “Meet the Grahams” is the greatest diss track of all time.
I really like Not Alike by Eminem but it’s hard to choose
I'd say the top 3 disses of all time are
Hit 'em up
Meet the grahams
No Vaseline
@@txtzx I'd replace No Vaseline with Ether.
@@Kritacul fair enough, both of them are great disses
Euphoria
" not only ending the beef, but potentially ending Drake, his brand, His image, and his career. . . *forever* "
only thing us #1 haters can do is hope
🤞
😂 🤞
It's funny cause Drake featured on Poetic Justice, which would've been a banging tune if it didn't feature his verse. Cause obviously he misinterpreted the brief. It's talking about the seedy nature of love rather than it being an outright love song (hence the line "I could never right my wrongs unless I write 'em down for real - P.S.").
It's ironic because nobody would've given a shit about Poetic justice if drake wasn't on it. Drake completely showed up kendrick on that and the one reason it was popular
@@BrayZap😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@BrayZapnah
@@BrayZap nigga everybody but pdfiles skip to the next track after Kendrick's verse.
@@BrayZapthis take is false, it was a fourth single push on what was by that time considered album of the decade. Drake also wasn’t the we pull he is today, he was gaining popularity but still in a crowded market, when music was not as trash
Anyone else’s audio go out at 2:10? Second time I’ve tried watching this video and same thing happened.
pretty sure it’s because the songs that were played are copyright, same thing happened at 3:42
@@green.2417 That’s a bummer! Thanks for letting me know.
So that means he’s not trying to get his video copyrighted.
@@Im45BitGamerLolgotcha, it makes sense
Your video has missing audio during the Like That explanation.
I think it's funny that everyone was all for the beef and then once it actually got real people were saying that it's "Too much" or whatever 🤣
Kendrick just checked everyone with this to make sure everyone knows hes a much better rapper and a ACTUAL rapper. Drake just an actor.
Cope harder
Even drakes exit was premature
LMAO that’s foul 😂😂😂😂
I understood from day 1 why Cole apologized! I didn’t understand why he dissed Kendrick in the first place knowing they are REAL friends. Cole is a real one for not letting the internet trick him into doing something he knew he didn’t really wanna do 👏🏽
Absolutely killed this video. Amazing summary and explanation of how the beef started and what it manifested into.
Your video is broken bro. Audio is randomly cutting out
Thought it was just me
Looks deliberate. Probably copyright issues and all that
Kendrick ending careers like In Living Color did Snow...
Damn
Good point
Yeah… nobody is ending drakes career. When his new album drops. It’s gonna be 1st
Snow was Canadian too. I heard he was a ACTUAL street dude tho.
Id be fine if drake never made another song again
2:11 the audio cut out right here for me 2:34 it comes back in. Am I the only one experiencing this?
nope i heard
Nah blud, same with me.
I think it’s the part from the song where Kendrick says Motherfuck the big three, it’s just big me
I keep thinking that Drake was looking at this battle more as a businessman, as if he thought that, yeah, we will be a lil' bit petty, then we finish and in a year we do a couple of couple collabs and then we both gain money', thought the whole thing he never seemed serious, he never understood what he was getting into, Kendrick freaking hates what he is and what he has done, this was the moment Kendrick was waiting for and like a fool, he jumped into the lion's den thinking it would be another playdate. In the end, Kendrick was right, Aubrey is not a one of them, he is just Malibu's most wanted, and if he is right, he is going to be Canada's most wanted too.
I love it 😂😂
Nice narrative more please
The internet to Jcole:
Perhaps I judged you too harshly
2:10 - 2:33 without sound. Copyright issues?
I thought my phone was broken
Nice pfp bro
Soul piercing.."longlife battle with yourself "😮😮
I never listened to a Drake album EVER. I seen right through him for some reason.
I got to go bad I got to go bad, is the worst thing to say as dude pushing 40 like dude you still 7 ya
Next to “I was trying to keep it PG” 😂
@@JojosupremeIQ195I actually didn’t find this line to be bad. “I like drake when he sings”. It was from a RDC world skit. Now let me be clear, I’m a k-dot fan lol. Drake got smoked in battle but I thought this line was funny, not a diss but just funny.
@GlobnarTheGreen "yo back up against the curb" is still the most hilarious line outta the whole war tho
Did you just make a 11 min video, and not ONCE mention the pedo accusations towards Drake?? It's what did him in.
Problem with this beef is it wasn't about who the better artist was, it's just who's character could be called out more. Saying someone is a pedo doesn't equate to "bars" and "being a better musical artist". Drake won hands down
@@BrayZap ...glazer alert
@@BrayZap2024 and we got people that look like you tryna tell anybody anything about some rap shit. have all the seats honestly
@@BrayZapDrake said his feet small Kendrick said he sees to bad bitches when he’s next to sexy red
@@BrayZapbrother, you're a grown ass man, half of your content is about drake. We know you have a bias towards him but defending him isn't going to make him appear and give you the hug your dad didn't give you.
Drake lost, by a landslide.
The PDF file accusations have to be investigated as well as the domestic abuse ones, so you can't even say "oh but it's not proven so we can't use that as reliable information" because the only argument drake had was "yo kid ain't yours" "you beat yo wife" "you're short" "my shoe size is bigger than yours" "I have bigger numbers in the charts"
Man drake lost this since the moment he used ai 2Pac and Kendrick dropped euphoria.
In my mind, the reason I was like “…….Drizzy is crazy going after this guy” cause …..seems like everyone has forgotten how Kdot cut his teeth back in the BET cipher days. The guy is a born battle rapper. Drizzy just doesn’t have those skills. It’s crazy to think he had the hubris to do this.
Honestly i never understood how people can even listen to drake, the biggest industry plant the world ever saw, knedricks last shit has more talent than drakes entire career
I don’t know why people give credit to his lyrics when he has ghost writers. When I found out about that I dropped drake, and that was at least 5 years ago. “You lied”
Seriously, back when i was in highschool everyone i knew was meat riding Drake, i personally never liked ANY of his songs not even the ones that made him famous or are consider his "bangers" he just felt generic to me and over the years when the milli bobby brown thing starting popping up, plus the memes of him being goofy asf, i'm just glad Kendrick put an end to this wannabe rapper
Never liked him, he NEVER seemed genuine.
One of the best videos describing the beef 🔥🫡 you’re spot on! Respect my guy!
0:43 that's ham
How Kendrick beat Drake: "Wop wop wop wop wop..I'mma do my stuff."
The only way Drake leaves music behind is if he goes touring in California 😬 🔫🚘
Drake just a glamorized hatin ass homeboy.
Despicable and downright heinous 😂😂😂 Lol
the audios cuts off for me at 2:10. Anyone else?
It is for me too
He FAN He Fan He Fan!! 😂
69 god
Hey Hey hey hey Run for ur life 😅
🎵freaky 🍑🥷🏾, he a 69 god🎶
Are you my friend?
@@nUmBskulLL are we loooocked innnnn
In summary: Drake is a pop star. Kendrick is a true rapper (and one of the greatest of all time)
"How Kendrick Lamar Beat Drake At His Own Game" Drake is like an actor who's still in character of playing a gangster rapper from the hood
ngl though, that Dave Frees bar against Kendrick doesnt even make sense as an attack since it just makes KDot legit look like a better man for stepping up and taking responsibility of a kid who may not be his own blood but one he loves as his own all the same
meanwhile Drake keeps denying children of having a father and leaving their baby mammas in the dirt like a coward
are u crazy or what lmao
@@fjabri nah not crazy. just calling out an ass bar for what it is. Drake just likes to look like he goes hard but he really doesn’t get what that means
In an alternate universe, I kinda wish J Cole didn’t apologize because I wonder what dirt anyone could have on someone so chill and unproblematic. What would a diss on Jcole even look like? Especially from Kendrick.
Drizzy's ghost writer said "I'm out"
There is something wrong with your audio. Some parts are muted
It probably got demonetized and the audio had to be pulled to get monetized.
You can’t fake the funk. Drake played himself.
Subbed! Love this breakdown from someone far outside the hip hop/ rap community
j.cole was smart.
Bro, you got bbl doctors making tiktoks in the operating room. It's over, you lost, and if you didn't just walk away before someone gets hurt.
And the dumb thing about this all? Drake was warned years ago not to portray something he is not... by Lil Wayne. Him running away from Pusha T should've been an indication. But it really makes me wonder why he thought it was a good idea to go up against Kendrick.
The moment meet the grahams dropped, I could watch those reactions 1000 times
Like president Obama Said, drake is an entertainer. Kendrick is the culture. Kendrick said he doesn’t mind Drake being an entertainer but REALLY takes issue with him cosplaying as a hardcore rapper & and throwing jabs at him. It’s an identity issue more than just personal insults.
The habitual line stepper got that karate kick after using pac
*Kendrick: Has lived, seen, witness what he raps about, from the streets and a struggle upbringing. He is essentially Hip Hop in his rapping.*
*Drake: **_Acts_** out what he perceives thru fame & fortune. The clubs, after parties, the women fans, the groupie whores. He is essentially an actor playing a role. Kendrick attacks him saying your character has become your persona of life.*
It's like Shakespeare vs 50 shades of grey tho.
I don't were lucky enough for this to end BBL Drizzy career
Imagine going into a beef and coming out of it losing your N word pass🤣
Drake and Cole basically tried to end Kendrick, WTF were they thinking 🤔
I'd say Cole just threw a jab and then realized what'd be coming in time to step away from this. Drake dug his own grave
@@e-duh3529 They didn't know Kendrick was the first person shooter
I haven’t seen a more decisive victory since Levi took down the beast titan.
It was nice to see K• take down Drake and his 👻 ✍️
Solid analysis! Thank you for sharing 😊
There’s like a 5 second silence near the 2 mins mark and it’s really jarring. You should put a note on screen or make an edit note voiceover if things got taken down due to a sample. Makes it really not flow and ruins the vid
Sound Cuts out??
Only one of them is a real rapper...
I just clicked on this video because I'm a kendrick fanboy but hey- this was really well produced! Best of luck to you and I'm sure you'll continue to grow.
The Heart Part 6 was trash
Aubrey never stood a chance. Kendrick can write lyrics for fuck sake.
#1 Rule of Battle Rap is, “Don’t be attracted to children.”
