HEY COUSINS!!
🚨🚨NEW VIDEO: EMINEM DISSED KENDRICK LAMAR ALBUM. WATCH ON RUclips HERE: ruclips.net/video/mavcwVAvRkk/видео.htmlsi=CFvd19q9M8hY4-hw 🚨🚨
LET ME KNOW IF YOU AGREE WITH MY THEORY ON THE NEW MUSIC KENDRICK PREVIEWED AT THE BEGINNING OF THE NOT LIKE US MUSIC VIDEO. AM I REACHING??? IT DEFINITELY SOUNDS LIKE A CONTINUATION FROM "BURIED ALIVE" A SONG HE MADE WITH DRAKE 10+ YEARS AGO.
ALSO, WE ARE ON THE ROAD TO 1K SUBSCRIBERS!! PLEASE SHARE, LIKE, COMMENT AND SUBSCRIBE IF YOU HAVEN'T ALREADY!!
Not a reach at all at this point. I wish Kendrick could be more direct, but the industry is really weird and Drake isn't the only one that's inappropriate with young girls and /or guys. Look at how long Puffy ran around being a deviant before he offended those CIROC liquor owners and sealed his doom. Before that he was untouchable under Clive Davis. Drake was going to be the new Puffy before Kendrick ruined his party.
The industry is definitely a spooky place. “Every dog has its day”. There’s a lot more out there doing wrong.
I laaaaaaaaaave it! 😂😂😂 you making the Compton trip if he doesn't drop is so wholesome and hilarious. About time someone did 😂😂😂
Just so you know. That song at the beginning of “Alright” is called “Dead Homies” and is on all streaming platforms. Love the content be well cousin.
Naw....i think you should chill.
Do you know much music we waiting on 🤔 Black Hippie, Collab with Cole, he lost 500 songs on a hard drive..... sis you looking for 1 song...i need an album!
No one can make Kendrick drop. He drop what he want, WHEN he want. Thats the 1st thing you shouldve learned from this beef. Even Drake couldnt force him. And we dont want another Drake. We want QUALITY music not forced music.
Calmate....and wait like the rest of us. You is NOT going to Compton 😂😂
Drake accusing Whitney of all these allegations further proves Kendrick’s point against Drake about his hate for black women.
He really is odd for that!
Drake gotta apologize for the "mixed queen" & "Dave Free" lines b4 i will forgive him....😡
@@iluvdissheetsame here
@@Zan823then tells her to "hit him up"🤢🤢. Broo goooo. You're gross. Why would she want to do that after you've been disrespecting the sh!t out of her. But, that's the toxic relationship he has with women.
I thought he was so low for that. Kendrick's blows were all about Drake's actions, even when they involved someone else (eg he mentioned a daughter, but didn't attack that daughter). The nearest he got to attacking others was the OVO crew, but if you've got a weird case, expect to take shots for it!
However, what did Whitney do, other than be Kendrick's partner (& a full ride or die partner, at that)? He attacked her character, her integrity, her as a person, and she had done absolutely nothing. Foul.
Maybe that's why Drake keeps going for "a minorrrrrrs" - they're the same maturity level as him...
Someone needs to tell him that his hatred of black women is not helping disprove the "coloniser" claim, either - because trying to take control over a culture by attacking their women is right out of the coloniser handbooks from centuries ago.
I'm from Toronto born and raised. Everything Kendrick is saying were my thoughts of Drake since 2006! The rabbit hole goes deeper...
I’ve seen stories from young girls and boys that say their friends were attending parties at his mansion when they were in high school.
@@ChillingWithMonie What's your email? I'll send you receipts.
You can find me on Twitter. @xmonielove
@@user-ho9wf8wq5h thank you!! Every time Drake did anything I’d be like “wait. He’s friends with little kids. And no one cares?? Ok then”
I’m African from South Africa ( never been to America ) and even I know Tommy the clown, from rize ❤
Right I’m from London and know Tommy the Clown. Watched Rise in the early 2000s and it was so good.
A lot of us grew up watching alot of American shows learning their dance moves and music..
Much love to you and South Africa! 🫶🏾 Rize was definitely a staple to watch. A classic.
Yep, from New Zealand and he’s known down here too! So world wide!
Crazy thing is, a lot of people on the East Coast of the US doesn't know who Tommy The Clown is
The video dropped during the cookout before the fireworks in CA, Brilliant .
I saw that. Lol
Yep, we we're still on the grill here on L.A.
THANK YOU!! I’m so glad someone highlighted the fact that Drake has utter disregard and lack of respect for women. Uses them as a means to an end. The fact that his “nuclear” song was an so-called expose of Whitney is all you need to know about the type of man he is and his character. So instead of swinging at the person in front of you, you’re gonna degrade and utterly slander the women who isn’t involved in this feud with no outlet or agency to fight back!? Like what in the bully hell? That’s why when she hit them steps on his head with the little turn around I celebrated for her reclamation of character, for her celebrating with her man (of upstanding character and morals) who didn’t drag Sophie (who would’ve been low hanging fruit, who didn’t slander Adonis but affirmed him, who took the high road at every turn)-while that sorry excuse for a man from start to finish invoked Kendrick’s significant other and tried to destroy her public image and shame her character. Ugh.
FACTS 🎉
I love your perspective, much respect!
Whats crazy is no one has came for his bm even tho she’s a legit cornstar. Wtf
I need a standing ovation for this comment 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Because they have respect. Like yeah, this who you laid with but this not about her, so we aren’t going to target her. This is about you Drake and the nasty tendencies you have!!! Kendrick and Pusha could’ve said so much about that woman but it’s not worth doing and I respect that from them. Men with morals.
The ppl who don’t get the history are little kids, but also Drake fans who don’t care about the culture.
All facts!!
We had Tommy the Clown @ my daughters Sweet 16 Birthday Party! She is now 34.... Lol! Tommy is part of our culture
He’s such a legend. Wish I could’ve had him at one of my parties growing up. Lol
My lil cousin danced with him in the 90's or early 2000's. Definitely a big part of the culture.
Yours is a rare perspective in this whole saga and I appreciate it.
Thank you 🫶🏾
6:36 If Drake even wrote those lines. Crazy that nobody in the oVo camp had enough knowledge to step in and say “Nah, that’s not what Kendrick is saying”… probably dozens of guys who say they’re deep into hip hop and nobody picked up this rookie mistake?!? Love your video. Bx
I honestly think Drake fired his writers after figuring out the mole in his camp and had to write the song himself lol
The owl that he beat had berets on it😂😂😂
I didn't notice that now I have to watch it again
The WOP word has a meaning of someone in the country without a paper Lol 🤣😆
I saw that one!! “With out papers” 😱😱
If they don't know what wop is they are not of the FBA culture. It's funny how the world is watching black Americans very hard. Can anyone explain this odd thing when the image has been attempted to be tarnished.
I don't think people have realized that people are going to be breaking down this video all summer
4:17 Also keep in mind that the Beef is being followed Internationally, I'm not from the US but I grew up watching BET, 106 & Park, and other black American TV SHows, so I know who Tommy the Clown is from a Documentary I watched years ago, but people who didn't would not know who he is. So don't get pissed, take it as an opportunity to reintroduce him to the world. That man deserves the respect, recognition and awards for his contributions.
We losing recipes lol these kids don’t know history. My little cousin didn’t know what 106&park was. Lol
"Emancipate yourself from mental slavery , none but ourselves can free our mind " Bob Marley Redemption song. Drake perception is that he is free and clear . Drake is owned by UMG , OVO desicrated , he is subject to federal laws & ridiculed because of his own actions . A miner = goes to a location and reaps ( anagram) the native resource e.g. gold, coal , talent etc for personal profit. We can visit places but only the confused or actors take on the accent after a fortnight .
You might be on to something with the ending to Buried Alive and the song Kendrick just previewed. That snippet already for people in a frenzy, hope he releases it. Too much energy 🔥
I’m going to be mad if he doesn’t release it lol we want more.
Great video! I agree about the sipnet being a followup....will he make that an entire track 🤷🏾♀️
I was so happy to see Whitney 🥰 favorite part of the video. I also agree Whitney wears tangtops alot so no hidden message....let her dance!
I think ive seen this b4 but you made some great points about Tommy and this representing LA more than dissing Drake although the boogeyman part is 🤣🤣🤣. But the scene wirh rhe owl with rhe 2 perapectives is visually beautiful. 🤌🏾
Exactly!!
Great commentary on Whitney. Subbed.
Awesome, thank you!
Love Kendrick ❤
Mr. Get Off, I get off and “mop feet”: I mopped the floor with him-to trounce, to defeat in a humiliating manner.
First timer, excellent analysis!!!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Kendrick The Only Rapper, Who Made His Song Into A Puzzle, His Music Has A Lot Of Hidden Messages, I Like
He gets us thinking.
Your theory makes sense. Reincarnated...Im a stargazer.... You're onto something!!!
🫶🏾
Kendrick ain't done he's saying way more on this video and once the public breakdown this video if we don't get his message he gone keep going. Also agree with the snippet at the beginning
Nice work cousin!
Cousin 🫶🏾🫶🏾
Speak then facts Monie🙌🏾 Tommy the clown is a legend 💯. I, too, am from Jersey. Keep shining bright and reppin ❤🙏🏾

Jersey Girl here in LA going on 14 years and had to hit the Subscribe button because, YES SIS! How do people NOT know who Tommy The Clown is?!?!?! or Crumping!?!?! Like SMH... Tommy's an American Icon. Also, tight work in this breakdown.
Jersey girls!!! Thank you for subscribing. 🫶🏾🫶🏾
Being from Toronto but not holding the same sentiment as my fellow Canadians, the reason people from Toronto say they don’t want Derozan back is because he claimed Toronto was his home. If we didn’t trade him for Kawhi he wouldn’t have left the city. He had plans to make the raptors his forever team like Kobe and the Lakers. He was even calling himself the king of the 6. And even after the trade he showed his appreciation for Toronto/ Canada as a whole, he was upset with Management and the president of the team. Drake nor the fans were ever his problem. So Toronto feels away about his new found disrespect for the city he once represented so hard. Also to add this feud has turned from a Drake and Kendrick back and forth to region/ country war. It’s almost as if the U.S is giving a huge middle finger to Toronto as a whole because of this one artist. “Not like us” made a huge statement to a lot of Canadians that we would never have a place in the culture no matter how many similarities we share. A lot of “Americans fled to Canada during the Underground Railroad area and still suffered slavery here and with all our shared history we are still considered othered. I am Jamaican born so my tie to Canada is mainly by my residence here, but the irony is Drake didn’t only wear American culture as a costume he also benefited from cosplaying from most of the Caribbean. Just want that to be remembered
I respect your point of view. However, it’s odd if you thought he would pick Toronto over his actual home. A place that raised him and shaped him into the man he is today. A place where his children and family still reside to this day. In that moment Toronto probably did feel like a second home to him because that’s all he knew and it would make more sense for any player to want to stay with one team. That’s not shocking. Lol however, it’s still his actual home (Compton) vs a place he adopted for a moment in time. That’s over with and people should move on. He owes Toronto nothing. He did his job and once the job was done, he moved on. Also, it seems the people in Canada are loving Not Like Us. The song is now the MOST streamed rap song in Canada on Spotify in 2024, surpassing Kanye West’s “Carnival”. Does Canada really feel a way? Doesn’t seem like it. Just certain individuals who are butt hurt.
The wife beater thing is a reach. Not only does she wear them often, but I don’t think they would play around about DV like that. Kendrick gets very serious when the topic comes up
Agreed. He wouldn’t play with that.
Great analysis, thank you
Drake listened to MMBS but his limited, flawed perspective could only see the ignant stuff he spoke on.
He definitely skimmed through the album lol
Subbed!!!
Hey Monie!! Beautiful voice 😁😊
Hey, thanks!
Youre Awesome ❤ Sister
Much love 🫶🏾
Excellent job 👏 👍 👌
Thanks for the visit
I think they said the song in the Alright video was on a hard drive that got corrupted so that's why it didn't come out. I know he said he lost hundreds if not thousands of songs with that
I've also seen people say his jacket says 8/8/2024 so something will probably drop there
Edit: 12:47 damn you might be right
The “8/8/2024” isn’t accurate. The jacket actually says “s/s 2024” which stands for “spring / summer 2024” which is the season the jacket comes from. Lol appreciate you commenting.
Um Toronto does got deep love for DeRozan. He gave his heart to the city by way of the Raptors. Our management did him dirty and we owe him a crown.
Those bitter beckys who’ve done nothing for the city don’t even have passport to tell that man where he can’t go😂
They just in their feelings at the moment. I’m sure if DeRozan went back to Toronto, basketball aside, he’d still get love. Them ovhoes are a weird group.
Facts!! 😢 I hate how the management did him.
Thank you for hitting on the point regarding Whitney. Drake and his blatant disrespect and disregard for women when battling is crazy. Great analysis.
Very insightful commentary!
Glad you enjoyed it🫶🏾
First off I like to say thank you for the dope content, you have a new subscriber. I think the snippet could possibly be the remix, there’s been rumors of one so you can’t rule that out.
Appreciate your support. Thank you 🫶🏾
The track before Alright seemed like a discarded album intro that was too good to discard.
The track in front of NLU seems like a teaser. I'm pretty sure it's called Broccoli. I'm sure we'll get it as it's own track. The context seems to be new independence, new music.
I’ve been seeing people call it “Broccoli” or “Mr Get Off”. Either way we need that. LOL
I feel you on that. I wanna hear the rest of that intro
Need that bad lol
She is also showing she is of the culture with that 💃 ❤
Yup. They grew up together on those same streets. Questioning her authenticity I’m sure felt like a slap in the face to her. Smh
Let’s not overlook Bella Harris is Jimmy Jam’s ( Big Tunes songwriter Terry Lewis producing partner, exTIME member, played with PRINCE) daughter.
🙌🏾💜

I'm from Philly and i knew the clown
I just uploaded a quick short because everyone keeps missing the date that Kendrick put in the video but I love your content ❤
I’m going to check it out sis
I love ppls breakdowns of videos and meanings but only the artist can fully elaborate on what they truly meant ❤ until then it’s speculation 😂
That’s a fact. We are all just guessing. That’s why I enjoy Kendrick. He gets you thinking.
I'm from Mobile Alabama and I know TTC
Alabama represent! 🔥🔥
I agree with you on the wife beater shirt. She wears them alot
It’s definitely a staple piece in her closet she always falls back on. I’m the same way with white v neck shirts. Can never go wrong with them.
@@ChillingWithMonie facts! Sidenote: the guy said something about the video being 5:55. I don’t think it has anything to do with the shirts Drake would wear. 555 is an angel number that implies change is coming. I think that’s what Kdot is implying
8/8/2024 on kendrick’s jacket when him and mustard are in tam’s
The jacket actually says “s/s 2024” which is for the season that jacket was released. “Spring / Summer 2024” 😊
NEW SUB 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
Thanks for subbing!
@@ChillingWithMonie welcome beautiful keep up the great work 💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐💐
Listen if Kendrick Lamar Duckworth doesn’t drop that snippet I’m going to personally throw hands with EVERYONE on pgLAng .
Me and you both sis and I’m taking a pgLang hat in the process. Lol
What about the Toronto Bluejays hat guy in the passenger seat wearing? What does the wording say ? Anyone catch the trailer numbers CB1U , cell block 1 ?
Mustard said it wasn’t intentional he wore that hat. I also think it’s gang/affiliation culture in LA. There are specific hats that members wear to identify themselves. But I’m curious why he chose that hat lol
Drake: "Sierra Canyon (High School) parking lot looking like Magic City (Strip Club) parking lot" 😳😳😳
Excuse me?!?!
But we are suppose to not believe this man is attracted to teenagers.
Then theres 'Euohoria' a show that hes a producer on *about teenagers in sexual explicit adult situations*
His song *"Teenage Fever"* and the tons and tons of videos and pictures and stories of him being inappropriate with teenagers.
COME ON NOW.
He was so weird for that line about a high school smh
@@ChillingWithMonie it shows you how BOLD he was with it. He thinks he bigger than everything. Right in our face with it. He *NEEDED* this humbling and we needed this eye opening...because wtf. Protect the children!!!😓🥺
Man it’s crazy the stuff he’s gotten away with. I personally don’t listen to his music so I would’ve never caught that until I recently started to do a deep dive and I was appalled. Smh
Why no1 talking about the the Wave👋 Kdot did in video. Is he going into hibernation 🤔
Cousin, do not give him no ideas lmao
@@ChillingWithMonie 😂
49 years old from New York, and I didn't know who the clown was. I stopped paying attention to the west coast after Tupac died like a lot of my peers who went through that beef and was left sick to their stomachs and hearts.I'm glad this remained where it was supposed to.....on wax
You’re a bit older than me so it makes sense. Tommy was very big during high school and my transition into college and they’d do his dances in parties. My generation didn’t really feel the effects of Pac and Biggie death so we didn’t really care about the west coast vs East coast thing if you weren’t paying attention for real.
Please go watch Rize.
I am also from NY but that how i knew who Tommy was.
The wife beater isn’t a reach simply because she wears them regularly. That doesn’t take away the context; and she could’ve worn anything. Most importantly, Kendrick is calculating; at the very least he was aware of the interpretation. After all, he’s meticulous in every other aspect of the song and video. 🤔
It is a reach. Not every single detail has a double or triple meaning. Y’all thinking too hard. Just like people are saying his jacket said “8/8/2024” for an album release. Whole time the jacket says “s/s 2024” which stands for “spring / summer 2024” the season the jacket was distributed. Lol but if you’d like to think that, by all means, do so. Lol
👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿👈🏿🫶🏿👈🏿👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿

D rose is Derek rose
I said that in the video. However Kendrick wasn’t talking about D Rose (Derrick), he was talking about DeRoz (DeRozan). ….
@@ChillingWithMonie yea but I can see how people can be confused for a sec cause that’s his nickname
In one form of numerology
555 = 15 = 1+ 5 = 6
Derrick Rose from Chicago. If u got that mixed up u gotta be dumb... he went to Benji's high school and wore his number after he was murdered
If the people don’t know about Derrick Rose, they sure aren’t going to know about Benji LOL
And the desperation of delusional fans to make up allegations against Tommy the Clown 🙄
That really pissed me off because all you have to do is google what the real story is. He got caught paying for services from a grown adult.
Great video..For me it’s the amount of ppl who missed the whole point of who the “US” is 😂😂 let’s be clear.. “US” refers to BLACK AMERICANS who BUILT AMERICA, were FREEDMEN or ENSLAVED ppl HERE in AMERICA who created this culture…. Even BEFORE AMERICA was formally the United States..
I only point that out bc it’s weird how we aren’t allowed to celebrate ourselves without having to share our cultural expressions or heritage.
If DRAKE, who HAS American LINEAGE, yet is DISCONNECTED from “US” ain’t US..why would anyone WITH NO NATIVE BLACK American lineage think that THEY aren’t ALSO the THEY? 😂
As for the Beater… its that the Kids also had on the beater that drove that idea I think. Sorry for the rant… this is the first video of an actual “US” I’ve seen commentary on the video 😂😂❤
So Blacks in the UK arent US 🤔 What about Africans, Caribbeans, the Latinos/Latinas that grew up with us in LA & NYC, you throwing Eminem out the cookout? 🫣
Thats like saying only the best rappers come out of NY, bc we started it. Thats crazy talk!
I heard ppl say, only black ppl should have gone to the Juneteeth concert. 😳 Historically, there were alot of white men who fought for our freedom and came to Texas with the power of the US govt to free the slaves on that day in June.
You cant gatekeep HipHop! The largest consumer is young white men. And you can't judge the entire fan base off of one confused 🇨🇦 😂.
Its like a spades tournament, you either with US or you're THEM. If you respect and understand the culture, cool. There's alot of non-black, non-Americans who get it and push HipHop culture forward. Lets not exclude our allies at home or abroad.🫱🏿🫲🏼
We have no allies
Interesting perspective. Thank you for leaving a comment. Looking forward to others point of view on this one. It really is an odd thing when black people are enjoying and embracing themselves and other races get upset because they aren’t apart of it but they also exclude us from their festivities. We really can’t win out here.
@@iluvdissheet you still chose to miss the point while proving it. When Black Americans want to celebrate themselves, everyone else gets offended and wants to be included. WHY?!? We are not asking to be included in anyone else’s culture. It’s one thing to respect a culture, it’s another to act like you’re entitled to it, which is what you’re doing. How don’t y’all get that?
If I’m invited to your house, I’m still a guest. I was welcomed but still have to show respect. I can’t try to run your place. But y’all attempt that mess with us every time by getting offended when we claim what’s ours.
To say we can’t gatekeeper hip hop is disrespectful af. I don’t care what demographic “consumes” it the most currently (you’re honestly talking about money wise which can go down another rabbit hole y’all choose to ignore). If you actually had respect for US and the culture we created, you’d understand what OP said. Thing is y’all don’t respect us and y’all don’t respect what we created. Like you brought up, y’all just consume.
Again, no one said non Black Americans can’t participate or enjoy the culture. But you’re a fool if you don’t acknowledge our differences and respect those in said culture. If the Japanese made a song about anime stating “they not like us” none of the Black Americans would be offended nor anyone else because it’s obvious af we aren’t. But again, y’all stay doing it to us. It’s really tired now.
Also: Eminem knows he’s a guest. Paul Wall knows he’s a guest. That’s the difference between them and the rest of y’all. You’d think y’all would look to them as examples on how to move. You don’t hear them saying that mess y’all say or getting offended.
@@iluvdissheet nope they aren’t US. The same way they have parts of their culture that is FOR THEM. SOMEHOW it’s only OFFENSIVE when BLACK AMERICANS celebrate THEIR culture. They are GUESTS. Just like IM A GUEST at CARNIVAL, Cinco De Mayo, etc. I’m ok with that but somehow it’s so upsetting for other cultures. Like damn we died to be able to express ourselves here in this country.. now we gotta deal with the NEW colonizing behavior from other cultures? Eminem was never at a cookout and u must be young to think so 😭
