The fact Drake learned nothing from the Pusha beef and said Whitney name is just stupidity on a million. Pusha also said in an interview "The line was 🗑" 😂
@@lg3385 it really was though. Not only did he involve women that had nothing to do with anything, but he mentioned them in trash ass throwaway bars. Not sure which is more insulting, if I'm being honest.
if I’m being real combining his constant mentions of women who have nothing to do with these beefs until _he_ brings them into it with him actively siding against Megan after she got shot by Tory Lanez makes it seem like his real beef is with women and anyone who actually respects them, which… it makes Nice For What seem beyond fake (like it kinda did already, it only really has its beat going for it now) and makes his Chris Brown shout out on Family Matters a lot more telling
It almost would have been better that way lol, I was a big Drake fan, but a bigger fan of Kendrick. That being said I think if he wouldn't have touched those two topics you mentioned, the beef would have went further as far as songs and stuff, but f around and find out. A little research on Drake's part would have shown him all the projects Kendrick put out, plus his background of battle rapping and he wouldn't have fought this in the first place but 🤷🏽♂️🤣🤣 he a fan
It makes Kendrick's claims of a hidden daughter more plausible. Push only found out because he had business connections at Adidas and Drake was planning to turn his son reveal into a merch opportunity.
@@mariokarter13That’s exactly what I said. He famously has sex without using condoms and people think there’s no possibility of him having other children. That’s crazy. Any of these women would be fools to abort Drake’s children. However, they’d be smart to sign an NDA and take the money.
Bullied this boy into revealing his kid. I don't buy Drake couldn't get a fast paternity test but had a whole sneakerline setup to reveal him. And if he really wanted to hide his kid from the world he could've still done so. Pusha's song wasn't about showing Adonis to the world for photo ops or music videos. Its was about Drake being ashamed and hiding the fact he even had a kid and a baby momma. If Drake was so concerned with his kid's image being private (which he wasn't, remember the sneakers again) he could just been like "Yeah I got a kid" and kept his image private. Leave it to Drake waver on his own principles under pressure for acceptance. Everytime we see Adonis now feels like a calculated PR move more than it feels like a father spending time with a son. I pray he grows up an upstanding individual but its unlikely with that for a dad.
My favorite part of this whole thing is that the "you are hiding a child let that boy come home" line is enunciated so clearly and slowly, like Pusha T didn't want anyone to even POSSIBLY miss the punchline in the flow. It's the lyrical equivalent of looking straight into the camera and I fucking love it.
What's funny is "you are hiding a child" is so straightforward it feels like a shitpost summary of the beef. Like, terminalmontage type video, drake is grooving and making fruity noises, then Deep voice - *YOU ARE HIDING A CHILD* Cut to drake on the floor in the Peter Griffin death pose.
@Ryzard No, because this is exactly how my mind was working in May 3rd after hearing Drake whine/ whisper in that irritating voice, "Ya Dead!' Then pressing play and hearing Kendrick calmly say, 'Dear Adonis,' 😂
Remember that Cartoons & Cereal track which didn’t make GKMC? …”which is funny now cause all I see is Wile E. Coyotes in the room”… Wile E. Drizzy had access to every tool the industry could provide him. All types of Knick-knacks & gadgets on unlimited credit. But what the industry could never buy or provide was the natural intellect & speed of the ones who really run the road. Now that I think about it, coyotes, coyotaje, don’t they smugg…oh shit, K Dot might have been telling us way back in 2012!
"You are hiding a child." The precision with which this sentence was delivered is so good, i *still* say it to myself sometimes and just laugh. Also that emphatic *euggghhh!* 😂 I always thought "when baby divides the pie" was just a hint for whats to come? Something to have drake tense up about immediately, then maybe calm down a little when pusha is only talking about like his parents and such, then "you are hiding a child" SO. COLD.
33:15 yeah notice he said WE not just T. “WE gon take this slow…WE just gon peel it back layer by layer” Pusha and Kendrick let that man live in delusion for almost 6 years just to build up the proof on him to finish up the tag team. And speaking of forgetting let’s not forget how Cole helped to lure Aubrey right back into their lion’s den after he was saved this first time, pumped fake a diss track, then went to the beach to just vibe while the lions went to work…WE
Meanwhile, Pusha on the JBP: "I didn't wish death on 40, NOT THAT I CARE...." Push is ruthless and I loved it. That breakdown from him on the podcast I come back to a lot. Lol.
That interview also goes to show that Drake lied about having a diss track that would ruin Pusha’s career. He couldn’t dig up anything on Pusha. (OVO Witness Protection Program) 😂
The deadbeat border patrol line is so brilliant, it’s got all those layer you mention and then also it’s a response to all Drake’s talk about the cartel, like you are a father but instead of being with your son you’re spending your time calling technicalities on exactly how much drugs this other dude was running. It’s like a premonition of kendrick’s “that’s ho shit i got a son to raise” bar from years in the past. It’s gotta be my favorite part of the track after Pusha T changing fonts for “you are hiding a child.”
I think the Pusha T post beef interviews are particularly interesting. They really show how much thought he put into the music. Differences in substance and understanding when comparing him to Drake. Listening to them is a strong recommendation from me.
The beat for Duppy Freestyle is just so nice & so smooth that it makes Drake sound the best he's ever sounded. It's actually quite an underwhelming diss when you pay attention but damn if it's not a great song
Same with the 3rd beat on Family Matters and the beat on Heart Part 6. The producers should have been getting Alchemist and Mustard type buzz and yet they didn't have a Kendrick to make it.
While I do think "Meet The Grahams" is a thousand times more savage than "Story Of Adidon," this episode is a great reminder that Pusha ran so Kendrick could sprint! Also why do your bars in the outro actually go hard as fuck like WHAT
@@romanStillmaticyeah, it’s strange how all Kendrick had to do was remind us of the many many many many *MANY* crappy things Drake has done over his entire career, and he did it amazingly too. I rewatched that interview with Wayne after he was cheated on, he legit sounded broken by that, and knowing it was at the hands of the guy he _just_ signed before he went to prison prolly made doing those Young Money Crew collabs a lot harder for him
I still think the Story of Addidon is a nick better than Meet the Grahams because the daughter allegations is still just that-allegations. Addidon was cut throat deep and was actually confirmed. But I gotta hand it to Kendrick though, I have never been so goddamn scared for someone's life while listening to a track.
The song just started and can I say: Drake has one inflection and that is it. Coming hot off of Mr. Morale and the Big Steppers and all of Kendrick's disses, it's clear that he uses his voice like an instrument, while Drake is just... he's just there. Fire beat though 🤷🏾♀️
That's the wildest part about Drake to me. People tell me about his range and stufff.... In old head context.... Drake is Eazy E. He's great, hit songs, all that.... but we know the talent isn't ACTUALLY wide-ranging. His rapping is the same sound all the time. Joe Budden said he always sounds like he's rapping while sitting down. Haven't unheard that exact thing ever since lmao.
I just hate how several of Drake's songs (extremely noticable in heart part 6) he just was blatantly looking up rhymes to end every bar with for a "flow" but it's just lazy. Kendrick just doesn't do that. He breaks his own rhythm on purpose for inflections or emphasis
5:30 you know, NWTS was a good album, but it is crazy because it’s literally called *Nothing Was the Same* and Drake arguably changed the trajectory of his career by taking shots at both Push and Kendrick. It’s just kind of ironic
Pusha T’s interview with Joe Budden made it even funnier when he was mocking Aubrey’s interview with LeBron. He revealed they got the information from one of OVO 40’s women. 😅
Cruel Summer is referring to the GOOD Music compilation album in 2012 called that (which had the song Mercy on it and coincidentally Pusha was on that song as well), this Drake and Pusha beef was a year before the Taylor Swift song came out.
Honestly, it would be kinda fun to examine the Meek Mill-Drake beef, since that's the only beef that Drake came out looking good. Would make for a good contrast.
He shouldn't have come out of that one good. The only reason he did was because he's a bigger name than Meek Mill. People simply decided that he won even after Meek responded with "Wanna Know" which doubled down on the ghostwriter allegations and called him a fraud
Now we learn that Drake didn’t write the diss, Daylyt did!!! “Your best work is a Lyt pack. I like Back to Back, I will get back to that.” Daylyt has a video where he says he wrote it and other Drake songs like Take Care, which is why Drake DOES NOT have a classic; Daylyt does!
Pusha T made rap disses into investigative journalism. Drake really brings out the demon mode outta people 🤧. The last part of your rap with the Uooh will live rent-free in my head now, so thanks for that 😂.
PLEASE (re?)visit Kendrick's verse on Control, where it all started, and The Heart Pt. 4. THP4 was a Drake and Big Sean diss that has aged beautifully into a J. Cole diss.
I could never have a Virgil and hold 'em back because he makes me nervous. Drake ain't the one to talk holding people back when you did Makonnen dirty and tried jacking Abel's album back in the day or the other writers you had who ended up in the hospital after speaking out against you. Ironic isn't it.
No, he’s been at it since drakw & social media existed. Most people who care about this beef now were just too young to comprehend what was happening at the time.
Great video. I like how you started listening to Kendrick’s albums. I think for a decade, Drake who is not a lyricist covered that with club bangers and the measurements for a good hip hop song is “can it play in the club”. People listening to Kendrick will make people have a better appreciation for hip hop and hopefully raise the bar to it being about the art, culture and what hip hop is really about.
This diss actually made me wake up as a Drake stan. Seeing Drake be a deadbeat, try to force his BM to get an abortion against her wishes, puss out of responding to Pusha, and drop another bloated mid album with Scorpion. It all changed my mind on him
Drake reminds me of a fraternity brother I known. For a long time I had deep respect, I thought maybe he was just a bit zesty, odd, Sometimes people get turned inside out like it was a metaphorical Diddy party, Sometimes it's inside out and than it's outside in
The beef goes even further back than this, it pretty much starts when Birdman didn't pay The Neptunes for the beat on What Happened To That Boy featuring the Clipse
You forgot to mention that the baby dividing the pie line is a double entendre as in Drake has a child he has to spend money on his son and then baby having a hand in his money before he touches it
No dope on Sundays is fire. Also gotta check out his mixtape NAACP. You won’t be disappointed! And dope freestyle at the end of this great video @derapy 🔥
Drake falls for the "more people buy my music, so I'll have more people saying I won, regardless the quality of the diss tracks" assumption every time.
@@luckyspursand that's not even true lol. Most people agreed he lost against Push and Kendrick. Now i don't even think he won against Meek because daylyt wrote back to back (allegedly).
Love love love your style of video essay! It’s a shame that the beef is kinda over because I love listening to your insights and your mind set when these things were going on as a huge Drake fan. I listen to both artists but being from Compton myself I have always been biased toward Kendrick. It’s refreshing listening to you and not being lost in the whole biased narrative going on with some of the OVHOes. As far as a beef you should cover, my vote is obviously PAC and Big but you can also check out the beef that 50 had with Ja back in the day which essentially destroyed Ja rule’s career, similarly to how Kenny has publicly embarrassed Drake and made it cool to clown on him again like in ‘09. Looking forward to your next upload, no pressure😅😂 🤙🏽
Nice to get a rundown on this beef from a fan's POV. Back when TSOA dropped, I was in the throws of depression and had lost touch with a lot of the music world but esp. rap and hip-hop fr (save for maybe a couple standout features on a RnB or top 40's radio hit). After Kendrick popped up on Like That, I binged a bunch of other artists' diss tracks aimed at Drake including TSOA, but your breakdown helped me get some of Push's bars I didn't have context for. Also, that freestyle outro was lowkey fire, I could hear the Childish Gambino influence and that beat was nice too. Sounds like you had fun with it lol. Keep doing your thing man
Cruel summer is in reference to GOOD musics comp album called Cruel Summer it’s got some bangers and is home to all the GOOD friday releases Pusha-T was the GOOD music golden child one of kanye’s first signees
I also believe Dot said "I'll double back with'ca" before "you was signed to a 🥷" line to state he was using the Pusha verse against him that Pusha used in Exodus against Wayne. Another double meaning verse
I also think Dot saying "I'll double back with'ca"before You was signed to a 🥷 line to let Drake know I'm going back and basically use the same line Pusha used in Exodus on Wayne against you.
I'll be honest, this was the beef that truly had first blood on Drake. Drake seemed unstoppable after just slapping Meek Mill around like he did and then everybody was like, "Oh shit, Pusha T got hands" 😮😮😮
Something about the fact that even the album Pusha T shouted out at the end is better than any album Drake's put out in his life. Despite only having 7 songs on it.
Pusha T also points out that Drake only brings out his Dad as a clown, to parade when he wants to show everyone that he is black or of the culture but otherwise ignores him. This the code switching which is brought up multiple times but most explicitly in "Meet the Grahams" by Kendrick.
What a dysfunctional relationship. I know dennis wasn't a good father, and I don't feel sorry for him. But to feel abandoned by your father for the first half of your life, only to exploit your father for the second half. I mean, just sad. 😬
Your take on music is so enjoyable I found you with the Kdot Drake supercut and now enjoying your back catalogue you had my spitting coffee with your Cole track I don’t do membership normally but your takes are worth a few dollars of anyone’s money
Pusha T really got on the track to remind Drake that he only has a little bit of time with OVO 40 making his music, so he needs to cherish that while he can 😂
The Cruel Summer was a reference to the GOOD Music album that came out in 2012. Thats how that ties in to the beef, Derapy. Just wanted to point that out. Other than that, Good Pod 🔥🔥
I was basically disconnected from social media at the time this dropped but I did hear about Drake being outed for having a child but holy hell, I did not know he was drug this badly. By comparison, Kendrick seems kind 🤣😭 Liking your videos so far. Glad I found your channel
As a certified Drake-anti, this is the first time in years Ive listened to any of his tracks and I've learned something: I still hate how monotous he sounds to me.
Funnily enough, the first Drake diss I ever heard was Quentin Miller"s Cease and Desist, because years ago I went out of my way to make a playlist of as many songs named "Cease and Desist" as possible. I like it.
I like that record, I was gon get back to that for the record. Why would I call around trying to get dirt on 🥷🏿? Y'all think my life is rap? That's o shh I gotta son to raise, but I can see u know nun bout that 🔥

Drake ain't the one to talk holding people back when you did Makonnen dirty and tried jacking Abel's album back in the day or the other writers you had who ended up in the hospital after speaking out against you.
Ironic isn't it.
I think this was the start of Drake acting petty on social media.
No, he’s been at it since drakw & social media existed. Most people who care about this beef now were just too young to comprehend what was happening at the time.
Great video. I like how you started listening to Kendrick’s albums. I think for a decade, Drake who is not a lyricist covered that with club bangers and the measurements for a good hip hop song is “can it play in the club”. People listening to Kendrick will make people have a better appreciation for hip hop and hopefully raise the bar to it being about the art, culture and what hip hop is really about.
18:43 " I just had an epiphany", or as Drake would put it "AHH fuck me, I just made the whole connection"
😂😂😂
This diss actually made me wake up as a Drake stan. Seeing Drake be a deadbeat, try to force his BM to get an abortion against her wishes, puss out of responding to Pusha, and drop another bloated mid album with Scorpion. It all changed my mind on him
Drake reminds me of a fraternity brother I known. For a long time I had deep respect, I thought maybe he was just a bit zesty, odd,
Sometimes people get turned inside out like it was a metaphorical Diddy party,
Sometimes it's inside out and than it's outside in
It's also the funniest JayBlac reaction video.
The wincing. The enormous "what!!!!" on "forget she's a porn star let her be your world, yuugh"
You're entertaining af bro lol
The beef goes even further back than this, it pretty much starts when Birdman didn't pay The Neptunes for the beat on What Happened To That Boy featuring the Clipse
“Ion like you poppin shit at Pharell” hits different after I just read that
Yeah like he said Drake jumped into a beef that had nothing to do with him
Those background sounds be killing me bro 🤦🏿♂️🤣
They’re the heart of the show
“People forget” nahh dead ass 😂😂
It's the video adlibs 😂😂
My fave parts
I think it’s just funny how Drake tried to do the same thing Pusha did to him with Kendrick and Kendrick went 10x harder than Pusha.
You forgot to mention that the baby dividing the pie line is a double entendre as in Drake has a child he has to spend money on his son and then baby having a hand in his money before he touches it
This is hilarious lol. Good call out!
14:53
Cy-Hi at this point was on a tear. Id check out some of his cyphers from this time. Great stuff
Recommend me an album or tape!
@@Derapy his teambackpack freestyles made me a fan initially... no dope on sundays is his only studio album, not bad, but cyphers stand out more imo
No dope on Sundays is fire. Also gotta check out his mixtape NAACP. You won’t be disappointed!
And dope freestyle at the end of this great video @derapy 🔥
Was so happy to see you just put this out!!
I’m just happy you’re here
Been waiting for this oneeee 🤞🏾
💯💯💯
Yasssssss! I agree with this public msg announcement!
DOPE Bars 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
27:28 "what is it the BRAIDS?!"
Drake doesn't adhere to the "choose your battles wisely" saying. Both Pusha T and Kendrick are in the "dudes you don't wanna mess with" category
Drake falls for the "more people buy my music, so I'll have more people saying I won, regardless the quality of the diss tracks" assumption every time.
@@luckyspursand that's not even true lol. Most people agreed he lost against Push and Kendrick.
Now i don't even think he won against Meek because daylyt wrote back to back (allegedly).
Love love love your style of video essay! It’s a shame that the beef is kinda over because I love listening to your insights and your mind set when these things were going on as a huge Drake fan. I listen to both artists but being from Compton myself I have always been biased toward Kendrick. It’s refreshing listening to you and not being lost in the whole biased narrative going on with some of the OVHOes.
As far as a beef you should cover, my vote is obviously PAC and Big but you can also check out the beef that 50 had with Ja back in the day which essentially destroyed Ja rule’s career, similarly to how Kenny has publicly embarrassed Drake and made it cool to clown on him again like in ‘09.
Looking forward to your next upload, no pressure😅😂
🤙🏽
Nice to get a rundown on this beef from a fan's POV. Back when TSOA dropped, I was in the throws of depression and had lost touch with a lot of the music world but esp. rap and hip-hop fr (save for maybe a couple standout features on a RnB or top 40's radio hit). After Kendrick popped up on Like That, I binged a bunch of other artists' diss tracks aimed at Drake including TSOA, but your breakdown helped me get some of Push's bars I didn't have context for. Also, that freestyle outro was lowkey fire, I could hear the Childish Gambino influence and that beat was nice too. Sounds like you had fun with it lol. Keep doing your thing man
pusha t is the definition of “you go low, i go to HELL”
I hate I’m here this early but happy at the same time good content is hard to find my guy
🤝
🤌🏾🤌🏾🤌🏾 I'm here for it.. great commentary on the exposure of Canadian scumbaggery
Someone’s gotta do it 🤷🏽♂️
Cruel summer is in reference to GOOD musics comp album called Cruel Summer it’s got some bangers and is home to all the GOOD friday releases Pusha-T was the GOOD music golden child one of kanye’s first signees
drake hasn’t embraced fatherhood yet, who are you kidding
And he still is monetizing the shit out of his kid
Lmfao "a silly, little zesty goose" 😂😂😂😂😂
I always thought that on Meet the Grahams, Kendrick specifically says "and a fucking deadbeat that should never say More Life" to sound like Pusha T
I also believe Dot said "I'll double back with'ca" before "you was signed to a 🥷" line to state he was using the Pusha verse against him that Pusha used in Exodus against Wayne. Another double meaning verse
I also think Dot saying "I'll double back with'ca"before You was signed to a 🥷 line to let Drake know I'm going back and basically use the same line Pusha used in Exodus on Wayne against you.
I'll be honest, this was the beef that truly had first blood on Drake. Drake seemed unstoppable after just slapping Meek Mill around like he did and then everybody was like, "Oh shit, Pusha T got hands" 😮😮😮
Yo, Derapy! Your laugh is contagious!
It’s gonna be the death of me lol thank you!
it's my birthday today and this was a lovely gift 🍰
Yooooo happy birthday!
Happy Birthday
You really got me in tears here 😂🤣. Your commentary is great.
The Nas vs Jay Z beef would be fun to go over
Something about the fact that even the album Pusha T shouted out at the end is better than any album Drake's put out in his life.
Despite only having 7 songs on it.
The best rap beef Podcaster on RUclips 🏆🥇Thanks for the laughs 😆 ✌🏽
Always ❤
Pusha T also points out that Drake only brings out his Dad as a clown, to parade when he wants to show everyone that he is black or of the culture but otherwise ignores him.
This the code switching which is brought up multiple times but most explicitly in "Meet the Grahams" by Kendrick.
What a dysfunctional relationship. I know dennis wasn't a good father, and I don't feel sorry for him. But to feel abandoned by your father for the first half of your life, only to exploit your father for the second half. I mean, just sad. 😬
Your take on music is so enjoyable I found you with the Kdot Drake supercut and now enjoying your back catalogue you had my spitting coffee with your Cole track I don’t do membership normally but your takes are worth a few dollars of anyone’s money
Ayyy thank you so much! Glad someone appreciates the work 🤝
drake really repeated all of his mistakes from this battle 💀 man learned nothing
Not a damn thing
My man was signed to J Prince( who made a deal with Young Money, who had a deal with Cash Money, who was under Republic, who was under Universal.
I'm not mad you thought of the "YEE-UCKK" ringtone before me... I'm not. I'm mad that it was right under my nose this whole time FUCK
Dope pod man. The audio fx cackles are hilarious 😂 Need a breakdown of Yoshinoya next
👀
The essence of this was from the "What Happened to that Boy" video shoot with. Birdman and Pharrell that's the thru line .
Bruh I forgot how cold pusha responded to Drake. Half way through and Drake getting violated already.
Bro wasted no time getting into it.
Recruiting on ncaa25, learning up on old beefs. This is my Saturday. Nice.
I heard the recruiting is so fun lol imma get my damn hands on this game soon
@@Derapy its dope, honestly tho...wait for sale or find it used at game stop for 40-60.. not $70. Or trade in old shit and pay $20. What i did haha.
Just here to make sure your channel keeps growing
Love to see the channel growth happen so fast for you bro as someone whos also new I just wanna congratulate you dawg❤️ keep going
Not stopping for nothing or no one. Preciate you 🤝
@@Derapyno problem gang yo videos are genuinely entertaining 🔥🔥🔥❤️
8:29 LMAOOOOOO you hilarious brother 😭
Honestly this video is such a W Ive been wanting to find out what that whole beef was about but havent gone out of my way to until this
You know I gotchu
20:47 Lmao the way homie yelled "Drake" reminds me of early Metal Gear Solid whenever Snake dies..."SNAAAAAAKE"😂
Bro said “you are hiding a child” like Maury
😂😂😂
Pusha T really got on the track to remind Drake that he only has a little bit of time with OVO 40 making his music, so he needs to cherish that while he can 😂
I just love that interview with Push like the day after where he gets asked "do you feel bad" and he's just like "for what?"
Its so fun going through these and making the connections back to Kendrick's lyrics, peelin all those layers! I'll only ask once… Megan
That part 💯 ☝🏽
I literally had to pause this because I almost pissed myself during your "tick tick tick" part
Even DJ Akademiks said he told Drake not to talk about Kendrick's family, but Drake will do whatever Drake wants to do 😂😂🙄
Drake has no real respect for Ak despite Ak’s constant glazing so I’m not surprised he didn’t take the advice of someone he viewed as ‘beneath him’
The Cruel Summer was a reference to the GOOD Music album that came out in 2012.
Thats how that ties in to the beef, Derapy. Just wanted to point that out. Other than that, Good Pod 🔥🔥
🫡
I was basically disconnected from social media at the time this dropped but I did hear about Drake being outed for having a child but holy hell, I did not know he was drug this badly. By comparison, Kendrick seems kind 🤣😭
Liking your videos so far. Glad I found your channel
Same 💯 this ish was BRUTAL 😅 I had to rewind the song multiple times
“Cruel Summer” is a reference to the GOOD music compilation of the same name, it had Mercy, Clique etc
Bro you are blowing up rn 😭 keep on the grind we love you 🫶
Bro I love how much fun you sound like you’re having making this video, again thank you Derapy for the 🔥
It’s all for the love of the game. Glad you enjoy it!
38:06 listen and I'm serious ...outro is comedy gold 😂😂😂
As a certified Drake-anti, this is the first time in years Ive listened to any of his tracks and I've learned something: I still hate how monotous he sounds to me.
Bro I swear I can’t dislike Drake without someone saying I’m a trend follower or kdot meat rider like bruh I’ve hated Drake for a LONG time😭
I’m SAT , grabbing a snack
To call that man “Boss Baby Birdman Stunna Guy” is EGREGIOUS LMAO
Love your stuff Derapy❤️
Funnily enough, the first Drake diss I ever heard was Quentin Miller"s Cease and Desist, because years ago I went out of my way to make a playlist of as many songs named "Cease and Desist" as possible. I like it.
Cease and desist on the "Like That" record? You don't like that record? -- ok I'm not quoting the rest of that lmao
I like that record, I was gon get back to that for the record. Why would I call around trying to get dirt on 🥷🏿? Y'all think my life is rap? That's o shh I gotta son to raise, but I can see u know nun bout that 🔥
