You need to understand the setting at the beginning: you are late and then he sit down = there are 12 seats like a jury; its the courthouse at the beginning and. it is judgment day where the jury is there to pass a sentence and the ending is putting the predator under bars, and in between it is all the evidence the plea given to then sentence the predator, forgot to say after the owl in cage scene, the next scene is the crowd cheering outside the courthouse happy with the judgment
Fire breakdown 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@Nadiaxyzab Take this 🏆. I didn't get that at all.
Yoooooo! 🤯
This is the first time I've seen this explanation. Excellent.
Genius catch!
Protect Kendrick because the enemy doesn’t want us to unite. I’m 71 and love this❤
Amen 🙏
Facts
I've prayed for him over n over
Old person here.. it’s a beautiful thing to watch. Having all of Compton out unified outside the courthouse.. justice coming. It just feels historical.
Yes I am 63 and I love Kendrick and his woke music and lyrics, his music has always resonate with me
KENDRICK FOR PRESIDENT
9:24 I know this was supposed to be funny, but I'm so proud of Kendrick. "I'm not saying I'm gonna change the world, but I guarantee that I will spark the brain that will change the world." Pac is looking down smiling. Kendrick is a true student of him.
YYEEESSSSS 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
King Kendrick is the heir to the glorious throne. May King Kendrick reign forever.
On GOD‼️
This made me tear up, I’m so happy 🥹 Tupacs legacy can live on through Kendrick 🙏
@@linaries2694 we all are 🥹🔥✊🏽💗🙏🏽🫡‼️
As a latina/mexican, let me say we DO NOT feel 'left out' or that way AT ALL!! Those guys were freaking idiots. Please don't think that we agree with them. We always wanna be invited to the bbq.
Who U think bringn the drank to the BBQ? We know y'all know how to fill a pool full of liquor and dive in it! 💯
We are ready to party with yall let's gooooooo❤❤❤
That's true. I did not hear anyone talking like that, besides some dim-witted RUclipsr that everyone else was talking about.
I love my Latino brothers and sisters...we acknowledge that one guy doesn't speak for all Latinos!! Bring them coronas and modelos!!! Let's get it!!!!
Yes those ppl were dumb, and not Mexican, they’re Mexican American (I’m assuming)😅. It’s different , kinda similar but different experience entirely.
Kendrick has a powerful mind, them quiet people you leave alone, my mom always told me that those who talk too much can't fight😂😂😂😂 It's true❤️❤️❤️
😂😂😂
Biggkish, I’m 58 years old and really did not listen to Rap since 2Pac. After 2Pac died, came the mumble rap, meaningless lyrics, Hip Hop died (shout out to Nas) during the East vs West Coast battle. Kendrick bought Hip Hop back. Not rap, but Hip Hop. He returned it to the days where you investigated the lyrics. Beats can be fire 🔥, but the lyrics makes Hip Hop. I thank Kendrick for resuscitating the culture that is Hip Hop.
Great comment! It brought me back and helped remind people the real reasons why they loved Black American culture hip hop/rap in the first place! 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Sad part me included. When are we going to admit that we’ve been hoodwinked and bamboozled by a colonizer?
Not me. Lol Never liked him.
@@LuvnAries23 Me too
Dude wasn't the first to do this,He was just the key needed to expose everything wrong with this whole entire shitstem. Our Unity is EVERYBODY ELSE'S WEAKNESS 🎉🎉🎉
Not me. All my people know that I never liked Drake and I don’t listen to his music. I never watched the show when he was in the wheelchair
Never liked drake he tried to hard I’m 41 he didn’t speak to me but yes he was placed in hip hop as a parasite to feed and breed
Black leather jacket and military jump boots is a reference to Black Panthers Oakland California
Teach!!!
Preach❤
You can't lie the song is fire and the culture is waking up with unity❤
I’m from the hood. I’m Mexican- no body NO BODY in San Diego feels left out. I think this is a lie to divide us. We are no feeling any type way AT ALL
It was just one guy from a Mexican RUclips channel. We not about to let NO ONE divide us from All OUR PPL. They tried this nonsense with Black Panther2 , remember. When we rise we forever reach back ànd bring our COÚSINS in the south with us.
@@Imchicbad104 thank you so much my friend for the clarification,stay united and blessed. You guys had this Shawnee,Ok Lady in tears with all that California Love
@@Imchicbad104 We are all about that beans,rice and Jesus Christ.Much love to all
Black folks, we all we got, truth be told. Nobody is with us. But God made us in such a way that all other people can come to us and find love although it isn’t reciprocated. Reminds me of Jesus and that’s what keeps me sane. Power to the people in Jesus name.
I love how people didn't even say Drake was "on the clock", they straight up said he lost lol
And Drake had the last diss😂😂😂
I’m 41 my nieces were downstairs figuring our things in the video saying Kendrick waking up our brains 😂I love it go Kendrick bring the 90s- 2000s rap back
The fact that churches are using his words is WILD.
Fact’s
The Truth IS Gospel fam🎉
😂😂😂😂😂I don't know why but this made me laugh so hard 😂
"They not like us"?
At this point, Kendrick could run for president and probably win.
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
I'm so sick of people handing out black cards and inviting everybody to the cookout. ATP if you're doing that without a community meeting and approval your black card and invitation is swiped and revoked because you're a part of the problem. 🤔🙄😒
Kendrick has renewed my faith in hip hop. I’m 44 and lost my interest once Pac and Biggie died. I haven’t been under a rock though. I’ve been down the rabbit hole since the video dropped. Thanks to y’all hip hop heads who have analyzed this beef extensively. I’ve learned so much and have thoroughly listened to these beef songs over the last 4 days. I’m reenergized. ❤
The lady is correct. That third verse was the MOST IMPORTANT AND SHOULD BE THE MOST IMPACTFUL verse of the song. They don’t do that since KRS and Chuck D anymore. Again, thank you Kendrick.
That's why OG hiphop heads were turned off against "gangsta rap"
Every word Kendrick said in not like us has a meaning
They was blood walking in the living room everything aint crip walk
I think people say crip walk because it's memorable
The jacket doesn’t say 8/8/24. It actually says S/S/24. That stands for spring and summer 2024. Which means he has a fashion collection dropping soon. That’s a misunderstood easter egg.
It’s from Chanel’s Spring Summer 2024 Haute Couture fashion show which Dave Free & Kendrick Lamar (PG Lang) set produced😊
@@dulcieo6250 this part lol
True. It would be interesting, though, if he does decide to drop on 8/8/2024 as an ode to Kobe.
It’s a jacket you can buy
Kendrick is a World leader.
Kendrick 🔥 is the definition of "DETAILED ORIENTED"🔥. Ten toes down this man is a lyrical Genius❤. Be careful of the humble quiet ones😮.. God's plan, Kendrick Created & followed the assignment 🔥 of "They're not like Us"
💣💥🔥✨❤💕mm,hmmm🎶😀
He also showed the hispanic community love with the style font he used throughout the video..& credits
yes we see it and appreciate it. we know kenny always had love for us he even tweeted it once. it’s just the ignorant ppl in our community that act entitled and they themselves don’t reciprocate, and im sorry for that.
Didn't catch that so thank you
That's also a subliminal message to Drakes last album, he used that exact same style font
“That predator move in FLOCKS”
The containers scene shows up. Not saying it’s Drake, but those who Drake is close with
💯💯💯💯
Doesn't BBL drizzy have a private tinder where his GOONS find GIRLS for him, BBL drizzy is definitely involved in some CRIMINAL activities.
Bro you keep saying she Crip walking but she's doing the Blood walk.
Exactly, all of the creators keep saying the same.
Because the Crip Walk is more popular.
If you know You Know‼️👍🏾
@@dionnegreen9120 Fact's 💯
And you're missing the point of everything. Who cares which "gang" walk it is. Small minds always miss the big picture.
But, go ahead, represent. 😔
Oh, and K-dot has “0” responsibility to show Mexicans ANYthing. They fought to be wyte, anyway. Google it.
Waa wondering why Mexicans were labeled white in booking photos
Yeah!
Movie: Tales from the hood.
💯💯💯💯
Movie scared me more that take from the crypt as a kid 😂
You brought up and broke down everything everyone else didn’t. I love the commercial you made sure to show so we can see what other fans are coming up w because of all this. I’ve watched over 20 reaction vids at least.. I love em BUT.. I’ve been let down a bit.. you make it fun and entertaining. You showed the deep emotion, nostalgia and how this connects with people. Just a shout out for how you chose what to show from other commentators and you are real fun to watch. Liked.
This Is Real Black Culture, Not Like US!!✊🏾💪🏾🖤💯
I wish people would study Black history like they study music videos.
We do!! hater
And studying this... Literally is analyze our FUTURES HISTORY.
People can do both!
There's always a contrarion lurking in every comment section😂
BLACK HISTORY IS HIP HOP HISTORY!!!! ITS OUR CULTURE. 😂
The way the Kenny's dressed in that scene where he was doing the Hopscotch. He looked like the dude who made the "HIS CLOTHES WACK, BUT ME, IM TIGHT AF" meme 💀💀💀
I remember that 😂😂😂
Heard this on channel called deleted. He breaks down the knock too. Check out. He's' 🔥
@@biggkishreacts i made the Blade The Day Walker vs Drake the Vampire in Blade movie reference and now you made another Blade reference by saying Blade Brown and Duncan from Class Act movie. Blade is the connection 😂 Man this is CahRaaazy😮
@@firebrand2641all I know is that the knock has the cadence of the song “shave and a haircut” which ends with the words “two bits” and I think that’s like 12 and a half cents or something 😂 only because that’s how I knock on my mom’s door.
The "smashing to pieces " of the Idol , owl god Moloch by an Israelite is epic, not to mention the owl bowing in submission while caged??? PROPHECY 🎉🎉🎉❤
Come on with it I'm here for the intelligence ❤❤❤
Moloch, a Canaanite deity associated in biblical sources with the practice of child sacrifice. The name derives from combining the consonants of the Hebrew melech (“king”) with the vowels of boshet (“shame”), the latter often being used in the Old Testament as a variant name for the popular god Baal (“Lord”).
Right...and it's a White owl😂😂😂
@@stevenwilliams7262 U IS COOKN FAM
The heart only has 5 chambers that's why he skip 6 if you know you know
As a mixed race person including and mostly Mexican married to an American black man the chicanos needed not to say nada. Just like we have our certain stuff days and rituals it also goes for the blacks from the United States of America have their days and rituals. Let them be.
Young people are not into Lyrics, Older people 👂 And Hip Hop Heads Listens Carefully.... For the Luv..❤
That’s true
I'm from MCMLXII and YOU ARE SO RIGHT
"THEY NOT LIKE US" is deeper than just a diss to Drake. I'm a Gemini, and so is Kendrick. I see through that song. It is way deeper than the way the internet and social media users explain.
People are getting it bro trust me lm from Zim and we kno he is speaking through mediums to reach the black community
@@tapiwahozheri3033 Kendrick is speaking directly to American Descendants of Slavery 🇺🇲 ADOS
FACTS 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 BUT LET EM THINK ABOUT IT THEY COMING ALONG SLOWLY BUT SURELY 😂
I’m a Virgo and I know it’s way deeper. Being a Gemini has nothing to do with it. But being a part of the culture and a Kendrick fan I get it
The fact that each chess move Kendricks made relied on the success of the previous move. Without the success of the Pop Out concert, there is no visual masterpiece, CHECKMATE.
First time I heard the song was the video…knowing almost zero context…I was blown away. Stand alone, it came through to me as a work of art
ETA * it had the aesthetic of a Virgil Abloh exhibit (RIP)
People need to learn the difference between a B & C walk
Say it LOUDER for the people in the Back
BUT THEY NEVER WILL LOL 😆
Umm… do we tho?? Like really?! 🤨 I’m from Baltimore MD and we’re never gonna be doing that here! So who cares!
The piñata was also a shoutout Mexican culture.
True
Facts 💯
Right!
On point with this one!!❤
KENDRICK AND WIFE "B" WALKING 💯
Positive spiritual experiences don't have to be limited to this moment only, OUR vibe together will change the world ❤🎉
💯
I love what K-Dot did.........but why do we always have to be so inclusive ??
I love black culture best when it's black.....
Knott Hill was the first reactor to address the Bill Cosby/R. Kelly reference at the start of this.
We need to stop letting them un our culture..they don't let us there Cinco or 4th of July, not for us. Our new anthem is not like us juneteeth. Thanks Kendrick, let's stay the course and let's build black ppeople. The time is now..let's get it
💯💯💯💯
@@melanievincent4828 FACTS 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
💯 u said the yo yo yo yt boy is black 😂😂😂😂@@biggkishreacts
FACTS!!!!!
The Latinos are apart of it whether we like it or not. We have our problems but they have been here with us since before hip hip culture started.

Another person said the 8/8 2024 on his blue-black jacket he has on in Tams is the date of another African American Emancipation day in Kentucky from the 1860's. The reactor said KL will likely drop on this date. You guys are so smart and I am really grateful for your time and insight. I am learning how to cage the owl in my own life from this.
Kendrick for President 🙌🏾💃🏽🙌🏾💃🏽🙌🏾💃🏽
I dont know if anyone has said this yet but Kenny and Dave dap EXACTLY at the bar that says "the devil is a lie."
The actual jacket on the Martin Rose jacket reads S/S 2024. There's nothing coming out in August
Tales From The Hood is the movie. Keep up the good work!✊🏾
You got it 😂😂😂😂😂💯💯💯💯💯💯💯
@@biggkishreactsAnd watch Tales From The Hood. It's good. Lol
I think the pinata is also a representation of the Hispanic culture
He dropped “Not Like Us” on Cinco de Mayo weekend 👊
@@Cdovez78but the Mexican didn't say nothing about that then wanna cry about not being part of the Ken and friends pop out on June Juneteenth lol
Wrong fam it's a owl pinata as in OVO Hispanics haven't anything to do with this man y'all be reaching 😮
Nah
@@kismkasm3178 sí… Hoteeto
In my opinion, this is all spiritual.
Mustard wearing the blue jays hat was a coincidence not an Easter egg.. He says it his Big Boy interview
13:27 Pastor Mike McClure Jr
Fire pastor on a whole different level 🔥🔥‼️♟️
Thx for that ❤❤
He skipped the 6 and the 9
He skipped the 9 too? Damn 😂😂😂
i got most of these refs the first hear lol imma old head tho so iv always understood bars and subliminales. this is real hip hop finally!!!!
That political ad was great!
Yep, Vaseline on the face, earrings off.
... hair pulled back in a ponytail
When he's hitting the OVO Al pinata. Is also for the Hispanics
His name is Pastor Mike Jr. He also is Beautiful singer AMAZING is the song that introduced to him🥰
Every time Drake stepped outside, he probably felt everyone looking at him. Let's pray 🙏 for Drake that he doesn't become suicidal
🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿
NAH HE SHOULD NOT HAVE ASKED FOR IT😂😂😂😂😂 DROP DROP DROP NAH NAH YA NOT LETTING IT DIE DOWN NOW😂😂😂😂😂😂
CAREFUL WHAT YA ASK FOR
😂😂😂drake outside with the I eat ssa face
I'd rather pray for all the young female victims tbh
Uhm no TF 😂... Nobody was thinking of Meek's Mental Health. Especially not Drake 😅 shyt, take these jokes 🤣🤣🤣
Tales From the Hood...now I have to watch it again😂 Classic!!
Let me say this on your page cuz I'm not everybody keeps on bringing up Maya Angelou but they're not breaking it down I guess I might have to make a video but Kendrick Lamar has a song on his first studio album called sing about me at the end of that beautiful song is praying for the kids that were getting ready to do something wrong Kendrick Lamar talks about how this was the turning point and also Maya Angelou is a Pulitzer prize winning poet I have no doubt that Kendrick Lamar talk to her and was highly influenced by her so for him to use the book I know why the caged Bird sings is huge also Maya Angelou was taken advantage of when she was 5 years old and she told her parents and the whole town beat up the Man 2 to no pulse Maya Angelou was so traumatized about this that she didn't speak for 5 years she went to the library every day and read every single book in that library and she said that when she spoke she was going to have something to say so look into that Maya Angelou got assaulted at 5 years old they did what they did to the man and she felt guilty because of that and she didn't talk for 5 years and locked herself in the library day in and day out
For the record Whitney was B walking not c walking
there’s a CRAZY reference i learned from Akademiks of all ppl haha. When Kendrick’s sitting on the prison bed, he does a little dance w hand gestures. And it refers to a vid of Drake w a 12yr old girl where they’re doing that exact same dance together.
Keep trying to post a link to a short vid of AK explaining it but YT won’t let me haha… (if ur interested, title is “Kendrick is Too Slick- Akademiks Reacts”)
Vibe villa caught it too and zmoovey caught album covers, the dark lanes and the sky, there are sooo many layers to everything K does. Wow! No wonder he got a pulitzer
Love your channel but please let the clip roll before interrupting 😢 I get your takes 👍🏾but stop stopping so much right in the middle of what’s being said…..thank you ❤️
RUclips will strike them if you don’t pause in between
So I've had some thoughts about the Billie Eilish clips where they show her singing the song. I think it's interesting that she has gone from talking about what a nice dude Drake is to singing "not like us" because it possibly hints to how some things may have gone with their relationship.
Bearing in mind that Drake started talking to her and being a friend supposedly before she turned 18, and that she has very publicly put out that she, among other things, dresses the way that she does to avoid being sexually objectified and that in one of his more recent songs Drake let Lil Yachty get off a bar where he referenced her body sexually with no repercussion. I think that it speaks to the possibility that she may have realized at some point that he was trying to get into her pants and cut him off and that he likely didn't take that well.
34:52 Enoch looks just like his father and resembles his mother slightly, but just like his daughter they stole this man’s whole face. The kids are so precious.
Incase yall missed it.
The third Verse on not like us references a colonizer name Sir Frances Drake who was one of the spanish colonizers who took on the West Coast
12:30 as a pastors grandchild and a member of a family I have multiple preachers. This was perfect not only is he appealing to the younger people in his crowd that most definitely know about this Kendrick is a man of God and how befitting that pastor uses that in such the way that Kendrick approach this, my mind is blown. I love that you found all of this content to add to of this epic battle
He skipped the 6 and 9 in hopscotch....69 God...
Kendrick gifted us with some massive brain activation and I love it.
Luv goes out
I’m Mexican and from the WC and my black homies are always at our family parties and whatever we do. Idk if what you said stands for all Mexicans.
That being said I love your videos 🔥
Lil Wayne is not coming outside to help fight Kendrick for Drake. 😂😂
FINALLY!!
Been watching about 10+ breakdowns the last 48hrs... This is all new info!!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
😂😂😂😂😂😂 18:54 When I first saw the video, I thought a leather jacket in the middle of a Cali Summer!😮😮😮😮 This man built different!!!!
lol those kids are dressed for church…or a funeral.
Kendrick is a genius
The jacket actually says s/s not 8/8, I saw it on Twitter
Yes it’s the Spring/Summer 2024 line of clothing. 👍🏾
Oh ok gotcha 💯💯💯
SS, Spring Summer.
Drake projecting all his insecurities as Kendrick’s 😂🤣. Aubrey sold his soul to the devil.
There is no way Kendrick would appease Drake and do push-ups.
You don't have to be without because it's within. Great video!
Here's what google says about "Shave and a Haircut" (The knock on the door)
The tune originated from a song written in 1899 by Charles Hale called “At a Darktown Cakewalk”. Did you catch the rhythm? It came to be called, “Shave and a haircut, two bits,” and was most often used at the end of a piece of music for comic effect
Basically it was used in minstrel shows and was used as the comedic ending to many racial jokes. Drake famously dressed up as a minstrel character, so putting 2 and 2 together ...
He skipped over number 6 because that crip and didn't want to disrespect territory
Ohhhh gotcha
But he stepped on 5?..man stop…it’s the 6 god
Kdot not a Crip 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
@@markquieshill7867we don't do 5 or 6 in California that star stuff is Chicago gd bd vl stuff 🤦🏾♂️
@@badseedent4827 ok .that make his comment even more wrong
The shot of the owl was a shot at drake and his masters. Look into Minerva and the grove
The differences of music comparing Kendrick and Drake has me dying 😂😂😂
U ain't reaching I thought that same thing and ain't no one say it yet welcome to the kdot breakdown
How do you love people that don't love us. Yet they've been quick to use our civil rights to get what they want.
Not sure if all these are facts or us just reaching. But for the artist it has 2 feel amazing knowing that ppl are looking this deep into ur lyrics...
I'm a lyricist... It's even deeper than we analyze. That's the fun part for K Dot. It's the whole point of multiple double entendres.
I bet that Kendrick has a song in the key of A(b) on his new album! 💯
The knock at the door is "Shave and a Haircut, Two Bits" song.
I thought Whitney didn't look like she wanted to be there. But I BELIEVE it was meant to look like that lol
I thought she looked like she wanted to personally bury Drake.
Hat says "USA FINEST" Kendrick is wearing🤗🤗🤗
FIRST TIME I HAVE SEEN KENDRICK WEAR THE COLOR "BLUE" IN HIS CAREER.....FYI
Afro-Americans and Latin Americans are brothers and sisters and we have to be united, we share a lot even if it doesn't seem like it. History and culture..
No we ain't. Hispanic/Latin cultures are historically antiblack
Yea I would say considering many of y’all ancestors have African roots but unfortunately life has treated our now cultures very differently. And it’s true that y’all wouldn’t and don’t include us in y’all celebrations. I don’t see this happening any time soon either. Ijs.
16:36 Tales from the Hood
It just hit me he skipped over the 6 because “the six” is a nickname for Toronto.
Hey King thank you so much for bringing your community great content. Keep up the good work I'm loving all of it!!
That's he said fubu.... Never been in your collection......wow
... Listen
If you think about it Kendrick Co-wrote The Heart Part 6. Dot fed things to all the Ov304’s supporters, just to debunk all the lies of their leader.
Bro your videos are getting better! This might be your best. Keep the energy 🙌🏾
I had to let you know that I agree with you about black folks being the kindest to EVERYONE. I have had friends who came from other countries (in high school) and most of their parents would curse out the whites in their own language. Obviously the curse words are the first things i learned as a teen lol so that was always awkward. But black folks have always included everyone-- at least thats my experience. I cant say the whites bring that same energy 🤷
