I 100% agree on Drake taunting Kendrick. On Taylor Made and Push ups, he was playing Deebo and felt untouchable (which is easy when someone isn’t or hasn’t responded yet). Then he gets annihilate, and drops a song with Sexy Redd talking about rappers not leaving him alone and starting stuff with him. Nahhhhh don’t gaslight us, you BEGGED for this!!!
I believe drake knew what he was doing too, by just putting him and cole. And then say it’s just him and cole, doing the stage shii. It all looked fake too, you can tell he was starting shii
There is a reason why even Eminem said he wouldn’t diss Kendrick and why so many rappers backed out from beefing with him his skills and having a whole city right behind him is a lot more than faking being a mob boss without respect and the skills to back it up you shouldn’t even try
Kendrick was really hitting his stride with “meet the grahams” and “Not like us”. Meanwhile, drake is struggling with so much creativity that the most cleaver comeback he could make was the title of trying to mess with Kwndricks future album releases by using “The hear pt.6” first. Idk, how he thought that woulf work out for him, bur I truly don’t think the average person can comprehend how delusional he was even before the beef. Also, Kendrick definitely has the ability to drop club bangers when he feels like it, but doesn’t want to. Every non pop music feature he does is abnger largely because of him, He just loves that everyone knows the words to his hits and when performing it’s clear he loves that they can recite his words on tracks like “MAAD City”, “I”, “Money Trees”, “Humble”, etc. And loves that his world view is understood better by them being so prevalent when released and unique enough to still be remembered word for word. That takes intentional effort to limit yourself to the best lyrical content and the best energy he can offer the world. Meanwhile drake hasn’t been honest to himself on record since, in a self fully prophecy, “If you’re reading this it’s too late”. Which I interpreted as him saying he wasn’t the conflicted kid capable of self reflection he was when he was first introduced to the world. And since the. he has been living his fantasy life while being an increasingly lazy artist. Idk how you go from self aware to being what you feared so readily without being a little bit of a selfish asshole or maybe just a psychopath disconnected from his own life, music, fans, and self. Kendricn had a different trajectory becoming cery self critical and seemingly obsesively thoughtful. Which I think shows how much Drake took truly easy path “from the bottom” for granted whereas Kendrick may have tried, but when you’re not financially stable, you don’t have time to reflect on much other money. I think this is the thing Kendrick attempted to describe on Euphoria in multiple different ways, but ultimately couldn’t explain it other than saying I just hate you for some reason. I only see that because I’ve had it both easy and hard for periods of my life, and to Kendrick wheathet or not he realizes it, imo looks like his steuggles wrre ultimately worthwhile when he gets a massive crowd to diacribe his adolescence or just say I love myself. I haven’t witnessed anyone wbo has the reverence for their own music that Kendrick does and it’s obvious when you see him live and has been since Section.80 released. And I don’t think he even allows himself to feel like he respects himself so deeply, but I think after thourough examination of himself compared to Drake and during the Juneteenth show, he allowed himself to feel as proud of his own achievements as he always has been when plying “MAAD city” or “King Kunta” like 5 times. I thinkk it shows that he wouldn’t have released any of these diss tracks unless he actively saw that people shouldn’t be looking up to drake and decided to make the change happen.
Sorry for the long post and placement, didn’t plan it, but I just kept connecting different thoughts I had previously about each artist separate from the beef to this situation and the psychological phenomena Ive seen in myself that resemble(d) each artist to some extent. For Kendrick I truly think having an audience adds pressure for him but as drake got increasingly lazy with his released stopped putting any pressure on himself and got quite noticeably worse. “If you’re reading this it’s too late” shouldn’ve prevented his life today, but instead he was praised for his ability to not cling to his pain, meanwhile Kendrick just cant stop analyzing his path in life as his own perspectives change. The irony is that as K-dot wanted to be Wayne and Drizzy got warned to stay himself by Wayne, each ultimately being the other’s past self’s ideal for how the world views them. Symmetrical paths based on their love for a man who believed in both of their artistic merits early. Intersecting briefly for a single song that was largely forgotten, “Poetic Justice” which was the first song by Kendrick that charted iirc
Sorry didn’t realize how much I had ready to explain to myself, to anyone who wants to read an analysis of each person as people and how it informed their music. think the ideas are solid, despite not editing them, or having realized the value of my perspective as a fan of each at one point with easy times and struggles growing up and how that illustrates a picture of 2 people who are truly opposite in so many ways
I thought he did stuff with sexxy red before, that’s why Kendrick made the line. Idk but between that, the mr morale line, and drake being in Turks after meet the grahams, Kendrick read him like a novel 😂
At the end of the heart part 6 when Drake said "this was good exercise" and "its good to get the pen working" just made it sound like he hasn't been writing in awhile despite releasing a bunch of music. He unknowingly gave more credence to the ghost writer accusations.
@@kant5696 Twice a year in his new contract!! I swear, Drake’s plan was to stop paying ghostwriters and switch to ChatGPT before Metro and Kenny lined him up 🫠
Exactly what I thought when I heard it. What’s crazy is I could definitely tell he wrote Heart Part 6 because it sounds like old Drake and it’s very basic compared to the rest of the stuff he dropped.
@nebula8246 ppl just pick and choose. Meek literally did the same thing as Kendrick maybe worse because meek was the one who actually brought the ghostwriting to light..and yall rode with drake last time ..yall weird
@nebula8246 nah I completely disagree ..and like I said meek actually exposed drake with facts and not lies like Kendrick ..and it was the worst kind of exposure you can get as a rapper in getting caught with reference tracks..and yall let it slide and actually made drake even more popular. Now yall care about ghostwriting suddenly and yall care about "who can actually rap" now.. Weirdo groupies
The bar about Kendrick being SA’d, while being outed as a predator, and to even get it wrong is so bad. Then the “drop drop drop drop” Drake killed himself so bad, I still can’t believe anything that he did. None of it makes sense. You’d be a worthy competitor if I was actually a predator. Unbelievable
@@lydiaboll2872 in Kendrick’s song Mother I Sober, he talks about how his family was convinced he’d been SAd by a relative when he was a kid, but it wasn’t true. His mother was the hardest to convince because she had been SAd as a child. Drake clearly didn’t listen to the song to understand it, and during The Heart Part 6 made an awful reference to Kendrick being SAd “mother I- that’s that one record where you say you got molested” - NOT true at all!
@@yazplatt Drake is stupid AF bcuz it's nt even funny to rap or sing about whether someone got molested or nt 😤😠 Thts the wackest (probably nt a word bt idc) shyt ever foreal 😬
Fr I always knew he was sketchy, and I wondered why nobody said anything about it… til I remembered that he’s rich and famous and has a shit ton of allies.
Which really makes his "I'm too famous for what you accused me of, I'd have been caught by now" thing especially stupid to me. Also eerie, because R.Kelly was saying that same type of stuff before the law finally caught up with him
Yup. Dude's clearly been a creepy piece of shit for ages, and his dumbass fans just keep denying that shit, and defending him. Like, how does somebody have so little self respect that they defend a rich pedo?
Dawg Drake made up bs about him beating his wife and dave free being his kids real dad😂😂😂 and wht if Kdot put his hands on his girl?? Thats how u know Drake ain't like us😂😂@anthony1615
@@anthony1615You say that but the only one who can disprove that is Drake and his words mean nothing he need cold hard evidence, which he had the opportunity to do but instead he took a Reddit theory and ran with it saying he planted info, with no proof that he would have. Not saying Kendricks accusations have evidence I.e the ped stuff but considering Drakes track record of videos isn't great and the Baka ain't it.
"Not Like Us is him essentially saying _'I'm from the West Coast, this is what we do, and oh! I can make a club record _*_better than you!'"_* *That's a bar.*
I mean he said all he wanted to say pretty clearly. You not like US, descendants of American slaves, people who don’t have to lie to kick it, people who no better than to disrespect our icons or history, people who know who our icons are, people who don’t resemble colonizers in any sort of way, people who aren’t inappropriate with minors, people who don’t kick it with predators… all of that. He’s never put it so plain.
@@AndromedonThankshe’s half African American since his a father is African American, which further disgusts me w the slavery comments he made knowing damn well slavery is in his ancestry
Kendrick literally has a song on his last album called Savior which the entire point of the song was I'm not your savior... That whole beef made me feel like Drake really hasn't listened to any of Kendrick Lamar's music since he first got mad at him 10 years ago. Because almost every angle Drake came with is literally disproven if you listen to Mr morale and the big steppers.
Meet the Grahams beat was str8 🔥. I’ve never heard a diss track by giving your opponents family therapy, offering to mentor buddy child. Whole time telling his parents how sick he is and should die🤦🏾♂️ crazy work
Drake stans was tired of the beef because Drake was getting absolutely WASHED. He lost the battle with Meet the Grahams then lost the war with Not Like Us. Kendrick fr rapped circles around him and Drake stans wanted the slaughter to stop 🤣
Kendrick didn't win by rapping circles around Drake, they both came with bars. Kendrick won by heavily out strategizing Drake from the different types of records he released, and the timing and frequency at which he released them.
@@ledah0012that’s what I was saying!! Instead of trying to countdown and bait Kendrick into responding, it would’ve been more ideal for him to also come up with a plan… a plan that didn’t involve creating one song and then splitting it in half. I’m pretty sure Push Ups and Family Matters were recorded as one and then split. I feel like he thought he could meme his was out of it like the Meek shit.
@@9og7h yeah exactly, drakes bars were actually good and the two of them both raised the bar with the state of lyrics in hip hop rn but drake fumbled hard in the strategy department. I don’t think he was expecting Kendrick to come at the pace he did and he wasn’t prepared to keep up with that many songs
Let’s name drop Millie Bobbi Brown on a song where your supposed to be defending yourself from those weird allegations despite known history you have with her
Seriously, why is this man self-reporting like this? If somebody didn’t know about the weird behavior with Millie Bobbi Brown, you know they were Googling why Drake brought her up. Not to mention that terrible monologue at the end. “Good to get out, get the pen working” Sir, how long has that pen not been working? You’ve released an album almost every year.
@@Blueeyesthewarrior Because he wants people to focus on Millie Bobbi Brown, who to this day defends him, and not the people who've had more time to grow up and might acknowledge that he's been creepy. He doesn't realize that what she says in that interview makes him look like a groomer no matter how she feels looking back lol
Thank you for talking about Baka's weird case. Everyone keeps passing on that and saying Kendrick has to prove what he's saying...as if things aren't documented. I'm from Toronto...this stuff makes our news. Just know that not all of us are team Drake. He became bigger than life and even though most of the city isn't for him.
drake dissing atlanta was dumb asf considering the two people he’s made entire collab projects with are atlanta-based. bro alienated the one city outside of toronto that would’ve showed him love… 🤦🏾♂️
@@sbrooks904he could’ve said he still had love for the city but felt a way. he didn’t even diss future, and 21 still rocks with him. plus, the bar comes off as homophobic, so it’s just an unnecessary shot in the foot. and let’s not let recency bias take precedence here. atlanta has done more for drake than some countries
He didn’t diss Atlanta tho? He threw shots at Future and Metro bcuz they came at him but that was it. And Metro not even from ATL fr. If anything he fucked up bringing LA into it
@@jaylanthompson”Weeknd music gettin' played in all the spots Where boys got a little more pride That's why all your friends dippin' to Atlanta Payin' just to find a tour guide” what do you call this?

Track was 4 years in the making I think Kendrick or someone from his camp said it was a 19 min track that they split up made more relevant and had them shits ready
@@doubllechief6926 One's true, the other isn't though. Y'all love the salacious more than the truth. Between the two, Drake had the only disses that have reputable information. Kendrick knew he could've said anything because people wanted Drake to fold so bad that it didn't matter what Kendrick did or said
Drake was telling kendrick to Drop Drop Now drake telling kendrick to Stop stop.... He thought he was taunting k Dot but kendrick turned this man into a punching bag and a target practice at the range
I'm a 31-year-old white metal vocalist who has had a passing interest in rap music at certain intervals in my life. As a kid I was pretty much all into Southern rap music but then metal hit me pretty hard and since then I've been going in waves. This Kendrick beef brought me back into rap music really really strongly. I'm getting back into all sorts of hip hop and even getting into the history of other beefs. I can't believe I never recognized how entertaining the background stories to all this music is. Obviously the Kendrick Drake beef is pretty unique but there's been beefs for years that I've not known about but we're a big deal when they happened. Essentially a lot of good has come out of this beef for me in the form of entertainment and lessons I didn't realize I could get from this space. I feel like we're watching a Shakespearean drama play out.
Using 2pac AI is already gross in of itself. But for me the fact he was too lazy to even ATTeMPT to recreate Pac's iconic flow speaks volumes. Hearing drake flow come out pacs "mouth" is disgusting
@@Lyokodeathusing a rap legend to fight your own rap battle is like tryna get in a fight and calling ur big homie and talking shi behind him. “tupacs dead”💀 like what? have respect for the dead, or i guess just be weird bout it 🤷♂️
In his song, Lytskin he admits he wrote it. That’s been out for a few years. He only recently denied it and most likely because he got threatened with a lawsuit.
100% agree that Kendrick's songs get better and better over time and Drake's songs have the opposite effect. I found myself going back to Euphoria the most, more so than Not Like Us
The craziest thing i keep remembering about this beef is that kendrick really did come into this fully prepared to battle Drake & Cole at the same time. Thats kinda wild ngl
no he didn't, even his verse on like that is almost entirely focused on Drake with a couple jabs for Cole. Same reason why Q told Cole to back out of the beef in the first place. Kendrick and Drake genuinely have issues, he doesn't have any problems with Cole, it was Drake's head he was after.
@@anthonyvibe1709 he didn't 'have jabs' for both, he dropped a couple light disses Cole's way for mentioning him on FPS and the ENTIRE rest of the verse is him dissing Drake and talking about burying him... Not even remotely the same.
@@ledah0012 regardless of whether it’s a “jab” or a threat to bury doesn’t matter. Mentioning both their names provokes a possible response from both. Which it did get a response from both. You tryn too hard to be a contrarian. Even if Q went to tell Cole it not a problem there’s no guarantee cole listens. Kendrick and Cole had been trading subs for years. Kendrick knew what could’ve happened by mentioning both.
@@anthonyvibe1709 You're ignoring several key aspects that make all the difference. Kendrick himself said this is not about whos the best, its about how much he hates Drake, and wants him out of the convo. Him and Cole don't have personal issues, with them its just competition. We can clearly see this by what Cole said in his apology. Then you have Q telling Cole to step back because these two have actual issues, and its clear to see that Kendrick was never after Cole. He sent some light shots Coles way, the same way Cole sent some light shots his way on FPS, literally just competition.
Quick correction many real hip hop heads had Meek taking down Drake before it went the way it did, And realistically Meek is and was a better lyricst. He allowed Drake to preasure him into Dropping early while Meek was still on tour. Fast foward to today Drake didnt respond to Kendrick for 20 days but used tour as an excuse. Now that the enchanted popularity armor is off we should go back and reanalize events and put them in proper context. Meek didnt lose to Drake, he lost to Daylight. Ironically after exposing Drake for a ghost writer /song maker in Quinten Miller.
This whole comment is why I'm so confused on how everyone suddenly turned on drake this time...everybody likes Kendrick that much more than meek apparently
@@BadNewsfor154Sweetie, the rest of us don’t need a celebrity to worship like y’all do. I can acknowledge that Drake is a parasite to our culture and not ‘stan’ Kendrick (or ANY other entertainer) 💀 Stop worshiping false idols, my guy
Meek won lyrically, but lost the popularity contest. Just like Nas beat Jay-Z when it comes to raps, but lost when it comes to business and being relevant. The audience is often very stupid, specifically brainwashed fanboys and fangirls.
"I hate the way you walk, the way you talk, the way you dress" that was a light jab? Fr? Most rappers (if they werent international POP stars) woulda crumbled from tht alone. Every bar was an attack meanwhile Drake was like "haha your short haha"
The way Kendrick Lamar uses his voice is absolutely magical and electrifying. The entire Dear Aubrey section in Meet the Grahams transports me down my spine, out my body, and into the ghost realm so I can attend a Christmas Carol level reckoning. Rediscovering Kendrick by being smacked (1-2-3-4-5+5) in the face with his brilliance might be the best thing that's happened to me this year. Listening to U hits so different post-D.R.A.K.E. (don't rap against Kendrick ever).
That’s in my top 3 “And Baka got a weird case, why is he around” “Headshots for the year, you better walk around like Daft Punk” “I even hate the way you say nigga, some shit just cringeworthy, it ain’t even gotta be deep I guess”
"Let me see if Chubbs really crash somethin'. My first one, like my last one. It's a classic, you don't have one. Let your core audience stomach that, then tell em where you get your abs from. V12 it's a fast one. Bow, bow, bow, last one. Headshot for the year, you better walk around like Daft Punk." "Yachty can't give you no swag neither, I don't give a fuck about who ya hang wit." "Wop, wop, wop, wop, Dot fuck im up. Wop, wop, wop, wop, Imma do my stuff."
meet the grahams genuinely almost made me cry the first time i heard it, it works so well at establishing its somber tone and just thinking about the lyrics really resonated with my own family life. thanks a lot k dot, you fuckin' broke me man
Everyone likes the main quotables but my tops are “Keep making me dance waving my hands and it won’t be no threat” and the one I say AT LEAST ONCE A DAY TO MYSELF “Sometimes you gotta pop out and show niggas” 🔥🔥🔥
Not Like Us essentially was for the people in the back who didn't hear the first time. It laid all of Kendrick's previous points out clearly and quickly. And the fact that it's so extremely catchy AND copyright-free from what I've heard is so genius.
“Kendrick cant make a club banger” All i say to that is “bitch dont kill my vibe bitch dont kill my vibe” and swimming pools i feel were club bangers maybe they weren’t idk im only 20 yrs old but i def remember being young and that mf hit different so to me i feel this beef was everyone doing the ol poking of the bear which we all kno is a common no no
Bruh, ADHD, Swimming Pools, Maad City, King Kunta, Alright, and Humble all slap harder than every Drake track and also sound good on an album, which Drake can't say at all. Half of his only passable album is stolen Weeknd tracks.
The funny thing to me is seeing someone named ImJustSaiyan not describing Kendrick's side of this battle like its Dragon Ball. The first track "Euphoria" was like when Trunks just showed up and bodied Freiza and then saying, "be warned something more sinister is on its way". Then "6:16 in LA" was where everyone prepared themselves "to go to war" and finding out about 19 and Gero only to realize they weren't the real threat but a precursor to the actual threat which is 17 and 18. Meet the Grahams was the sinister introduction of Cell, and the track progresses like his forms (Imperfect (adonis), Semi- Perfect (Sandra), Perfect (Denis), and Explosion Semi- Perfect (Baby Girl) Super Perfect (Aubrey)), and Not like Us was the Father-Son Kamehameha just absolutely obliterating Cell and Celebrating the victory while wishing Trunks off to his timeline to go (wop wop wop wop wop) on his enemies one last time.
@@ImJustSaiyan I had to fix a couple things but I'm laughing at how perfect (pun intended) Drake as Cell is. The reason I changed it and made baby girl (explosion semi-perfect) is because if Drake really planted that fake info that he was hiding another child. He basically blew himself up on that.
Glaze we don’t eat donuts goofy lol stupid drake don’t writes his raps more references tracks coming out he likes you g girls facts and he is a fake rapper actor push killed him king kunta gave him a lesson on black culture lol 😂 your pathetic
Drake has been dropping mid for the last 8 years and he lost the war. The kendrick glaze is still real tho, Kenny is as much of a woman beater as drake is a pedo
I think this beef was the pinnacle of rap beef, it’s never been like this before. All the other famous beefs took forever since artists would in the 90s release disstracks in the form of records. So the reason why Kendrick was so effective at this was because he could upload songs to at get to everyone’s ears, and that includes being able to release music only 30 minutes after drake, which absolutely diminished the impact of his family matters song. If it got to marinate for 1-3 days, the impact would’ve been much greater, but Kendrick released a eerie masterpiece that had way more effect than family matters right after Drake.
The reason why most loved this beef. Is there wasnt any excuse people could pull for Drake losing. Pusba t definitely won but he was overlook due to Drake success overshadowing his by a vase Is margin. Kendrick rival his status within the game put them on an equal playing field.
Yeah, one thing I took away from this beef but I already kinda knew was that a lot of people on both sides lack comprehension and debate skills. Like Myles said "a diss track isn't just about the lyrics it's about the disrespect, the bars, the shock value." Idk man all that sounds like factors of the lyrics 😂
Yeah, I’m cynical as hell but I don’t try to expose myself to people’s opinions even if I fundamentally disagree with them as long as they can articulate why they feel the way they do and from what I have seen the worst of Drake’s fans are somehow the loudest and most vocal.
"Meet the Grahams is a bad song bc it's not fun to replay" 1) It's fun to replay if you hate confirmed pedophiles, confirmed deadbeat parents, or people who don't understand rap 2) This statement directly translates to "Nooooo it's making me think too hard I don't wanna think about how the guy I help provide millions of dollars to is in little girls' DMS and is abandoning two kids"
How is Ebony Prince on Twitter "just yapping" when he literally is in possession of everything Kendrick posted for the cover art for 'Meet The Grahams', and he stated Drake lied about planting those things. That's not yapping that's further exposing Drake as a liar. And, he stated Drake filed a police report after the fact lying about those items being stolen which in the rap culture that makes him a 🐀. In addition, he literally caught the journalist in a lie with the surveillance footage.
He’s just yapping because besides him being in possession of those items, he ain’t really saying or proving shit. And the one thing with Chris that he seemed to actually know of, he didn’t provide the video unless he was gonna be paid for it, so it’s like why listen to you after that point.
For real. Kendrick out here with street cred and earning respect from hip hop legends and here we have drake getting exposed a pedophile and alienating himself from everyone 😂
Im just seeing this because im still living this dream and listening to all Kendrick's songs daily and when I feel down. You are hilarious and thank you❤

Lol you're the type of guy I feel like was on drake side during the meek mill beef
@nebula8246 ppl just pick and choose. Meek literally did the same thing as Kendrick maybe worse because meek was the one who actually brought the ghostwriting to light..and yall rode with drake last time ..yall weird
@nebula8246 why 50 mf hate you if you ain’t done anything
@nebula8246 nah I completely disagree ..and like I said meek actually exposed drake with facts and not lies like Kendrick ..and it was the worst kind of exposure you can get as a rapper in getting caught with reference tracks..and yall let it slide and actually made drake even more popular. Now yall care about ghostwriting suddenly and yall care about "who can actually rap" now..
Weirdo groupies
Family matters is the best track out the whole beef and im a drake hater
The bar about Kendrick being SA’d, while being outed as a predator, and to even get it wrong is so bad. Then the “drop drop drop drop” Drake killed himself so bad, I still can’t believe anything that he did. None of it makes sense. You’d be a worthy competitor if I was actually a predator. Unbelievable
The what about Kendrick being SA’d?
@@lydiaboll2872 in Kendrick’s song Mother I Sober, he talks about how his family was convinced he’d been SAd by a relative when he was a kid, but it wasn’t true. His mother was the hardest to convince because she had been SAd as a child.
Drake clearly didn’t listen to the song to understand it, and during The Heart Part 6 made an awful reference to Kendrick being SAd “mother I- that’s that one record where you say you got molested” - NOT true at all!
@@yazplattalso who disses someone for being molested as a child? It just makes you look bad for making that diss.
@@yazplatt
Drake is stupid AF bcuz it's nt even funny to rap or sing about whether someone got molested or nt 😤😠 Thts the wackest (probably nt a word bt idc) shyt ever foreal 😬
he turned that "back to back i like that record, ima get back to that for the record." into a fuckin triple entendre in real time...
Drake`s creepiness with teen girls has been an open secret for years. But, because of his wealth and fame, he's gotten away with it scot-free.
Fr I always knew he was sketchy, and I wondered why nobody said anything about it… til I remembered that he’s rich and famous and has a shit ton of allies.
Which really makes his "I'm too famous for what you accused me of, I'd have been caught by now" thing especially stupid to me. Also eerie, because R.Kelly was saying that same type of stuff before the law finally caught up with him
Yup. Dude's clearly been a creepy piece of shit for ages, and his dumbass fans just keep denying that shit, and defending him. Like, how does somebody have so little self respect that they defend a rich pedo?

@@ennjaychannelthey crying because his fans want more tik tok songs
Kendrick didn't win by rapping circles around Drake, they both came with bars. Kendrick won by heavily out strategizing Drake from the different types of records he released, and the timing and frequency at which he released them.
@@ledah0012that’s what I was saying!! Instead of trying to countdown and bait Kendrick into responding, it would’ve been more ideal for him to also come up with a plan… a plan that didn’t involve creating one song and then splitting it in half.

@@9og7h yeah exactly, drakes bars were actually good and the two of them both raised the bar with the state of lyrics in hip hop rn but drake fumbled hard in the strategy department.

I'm a 31-year-old white metal vocalist who has had a passing interest in rap music at certain intervals in my life. As a kid I was pretty much all into Southern rap music but then metal hit me pretty hard and since then I've been going in waves. This Kendrick beef brought me back into rap music really really strongly. I'm getting back into all sorts of hip hop and even getting into the history of other beefs. I can't believe I never recognized how entertaining the background stories to all this music is. Obviously the Kendrick Drake beef is pretty unique but there's been beefs for years that I've not known about but we're a big deal when they happened.
Essentially a lot of good has come out of this beef for me in the form of entertainment and lessons I didn't realize I could get from this space. I feel like we're watching a Shakespearean drama play out.
Drake is gonna get into podcasting next, since rap rejected him. The heart part 6 is a podcast

Well when he first started he modeled his sound similar to Joe Budden so he just might follow Joe in podcasting.

@@KaylaMarie_so the video proof of Daylyt admitting it must be deep fake

100% agree that Kendrick's songs get better and better over time and Drake's songs have the opposite effect. I found myself going back to Euphoria the most, more so than Not Like Us
The craziest thing i keep remembering about this beef is that kendrick really did come into this fully prepared to battle Drake & Cole at the same time. Thats kinda wild ngl
no he didn't, even his verse on like that is almost entirely focused on Drake with a couple jabs for Cole. Same reason why Q told Cole to back out of the beef in the first place. Kendrick and Drake genuinely have issues, he doesn't have any problems with Cole, it was Drake's head he was after.
@@ledah0012 you literally contradicted yourself by saying he had jabs for both. You don’t throw jabs if you not ready to get some back.
@@anthonyvibe1709 he didn't 'have jabs' for both, he dropped a couple light disses Cole's way for mentioning him on FPS and the ENTIRE rest of the verse is him dissing Drake and talking about burying him... Not even remotely the same.
@@ledah0012 regardless of whether it’s a “jab” or a threat to bury doesn’t matter. Mentioning both their names provokes a possible response from both. Which it did get a response from both. You tryn too hard to be a contrarian. Even if Q went to tell Cole it not a problem there’s no guarantee cole listens. Kendrick and Cole had been trading subs for years. Kendrick knew what could’ve happened by mentioning both.
@@anthonyvibe1709 You're ignoring several key aspects that make all the difference. Kendrick himself said this is not about whos the best, its about how much he hates Drake, and wants him out of the convo. Him and Cole don't have personal issues, with them its just competition. We can clearly see this by what Cole said in his apology. Then you have Q telling Cole to step back because these two have actual issues, and its clear to see that Kendrick was never after Cole. He sent some light shots Coles way, the same way Cole sent some light shots his way on FPS, literally just competition.
The funniest part of BBL Drizzy is people in other parts of the world, that cannot speak English are making dances to it
The “shooooo” from euphoria is a callback to an ad lib on N95. “Who you think they copy off? copy off us!” And “shooo” in the background

Strictly quickly believe it or not, Ripley's... GRIPPPPPPYYYYY!!!

“I thought these three were gonna have a fun, competitive lyrical spar.”
So did Kendrick😂
Quick correction many real hip hop heads had Meek taking down Drake before it went the way it did, And realistically Meek is and was a better lyricst. He allowed Drake to preasure him into Dropping early while Meek was still on tour. Fast foward to today Drake didnt respond to Kendrick for 20 days but used tour as an excuse. Now that the enchanted popularity armor is off we should go back and reanalize events and put them in proper context. Meek didnt lose to Drake, he lost to Daylight. Ironically after exposing Drake for a ghost writer /song maker in Quinten Miller.
This whole comment is why I'm so confused on how everyone suddenly turned on drake this time...everybody likes Kendrick that much more than meek apparently
I feel like this same dude who made this video was still meat riding drake when meek originally exposed him
@@BadNewsfor154Sweetie, the rest of us don’t need a celebrity to worship like y’all do. I can acknowledge that Drake is a parasite to our culture and not ‘stan’ Kendrick (or ANY other entertainer) 💀
Stop worshiping false idols, my guy
Meek won lyrically, but lost the popularity contest. Just like Nas beat Jay-Z when it comes to raps, but lost when it comes to business and being relevant.
The audience is often very stupid, specifically brainwashed fanboys and fangirls.
Meek not only lost to Daylyt but AR-AB turned on him and sided with Drake at the time. AR-AB should've stood on business for that one.
"I hate the way you walk, the way you talk, the way you dress" that was a light jab? Fr? Most rappers (if they werent international POP stars) woulda crumbled from tht alone. Every bar was an attack meanwhile Drake was like "haha your short haha"
Drake's heard it before; Kendrick was quoting DMX talking about Drake.
The way Kendrick Lamar uses his voice is absolutely magical and electrifying. The entire Dear Aubrey section in Meet the Grahams transports me down my spine, out my body, and into the ghost realm so I can attend a Christmas Carol level reckoning.
Rediscovering Kendrick by being smacked (1-2-3-4-5+5) in the face with his brilliance might be the best thing that's happened to me this year. Listening to U hits so different post-D.R.A.K.E. (don't rap against Kendrick ever).

Bruh, ADHD, Swimming Pools, Maad City, King Kunta, Alright, and Humble all slap harder than every Drake track and also sound good on an album, which Drake can't say at all. Half of his only passable album is stolen Weeknd tracks.
The funny thing to me is seeing someone named ImJustSaiyan not describing Kendrick's side of this battle like its Dragon Ball. The first track "Euphoria" was like when Trunks just showed up and bodied Freiza and then saying, "be warned something more sinister is on its way". Then "6:16 in LA" was where everyone prepared themselves "to go to war" and finding out about 19 and Gero only to realize they weren't the real threat but a precursor to the actual threat which is 17 and 18. Meet the Grahams was the sinister introduction of Cell, and the track progresses like his forms (Imperfect (adonis), Semi- Perfect (Sandra), Perfect (Denis), and Explosion Semi- Perfect (Baby Girl) Super Perfect (Aubrey)), and Not like Us was the Father-Son Kamehameha just absolutely obliterating Cell and Celebrating the victory while wishing Trunks off to his timeline to go (wop wop wop wop wop) on his enemies one last time.
I gotta clout you up with this one. You ate here lol
@@ImJustSaiyan I had to fix a couple things but I'm laughing at how perfect (pun intended) Drake as Cell is. The reason I changed it and made baby girl (explosion semi-perfect) is because if Drake really planted that fake info that he was hiding another child. He basically blew himself up on that.

I think this beef was the pinnacle of rap beef, it’s never been like this before. All the other famous beefs took forever since artists would in the 90s release disstracks in the form of records.
So the reason why Kendrick was so effective at this was because he could upload songs to at get to everyone’s ears, and that includes being able to release music only 30 minutes after drake, which absolutely diminished the impact of his family matters song.
If it got to marinate for 1-3 days, the impact would’ve been much greater, but Kendrick released a eerie masterpiece that had way more effect than family matters right after Drake.

Yeah, one thing I took away from this beef but I already kinda knew was that a lot of people on both sides lack comprehension and debate skills.

Yeah, I’m cynical as hell but I don’t try to expose myself to people’s opinions even if I fundamentally disagree with them as long as they can articulate why they feel the way they do and from what I have seen the worst of Drake’s fans are somehow the loudest and most vocal.

How is Ebony Prince on Twitter "just yapping" when he literally is in possession of everything Kendrick posted for the cover art for 'Meet The Grahams', and he stated Drake lied about planting those things. That's not yapping that's further exposing Drake as a liar. And, he stated Drake filed a police report after the fact lying about those items being stolen which in the rap culture that makes him a 🐀. In addition, he literally caught the journalist in a lie with the surveillance footage.
He’s just yapping because besides him being in possession of those items, he ain’t really saying or proving shit. And the one thing with Chris that he seemed to actually know of, he didn’t provide the video unless he was gonna be paid for it, so it’s like why listen to you after that point.
@@Echo-nn8dtpeole just dont want to admit kendrick got bad info and it was nothing to expose
@@MemoriesLast-lj7gw oh boy…
@@Echo-nn8dt name one thing that disgruntled employee said that was factual?
@@MemoriesLast-lj7gw dawg I’m not going back and forth with you.
once the ai shit dropped i knew it was over
For real. Kendrick out here with street cred and earning respect from hip hop legends and here we have drake getting exposed a pedophile and alienating himself from everyone 😂

Mortal Kombat Brutality, Glad I’ve seen all these artists in person live before all this.
Excellent unbiased breakdown 🎉

6:16 in LA is so underrated that sample is so good. And knowing what came after that just makes it so much better
The most analytical takes I’ve heard about the beef so far . Tbh always killing it
I Definitely agree a lot of these so called “rap fans” are exposing themselves as npc’s
12:20 being 25 years old bruh my 15tr old self jumped out and started dying hearing that again! You’re a legend 🤣🤣
When the dust settled, I asked “but what about Jermaine?”
he's sniffing some flowers while riding his bike rn
He's getting grippy
14:50 U My Everything and Wah Gwan Delilah: *exists*
Drake: *sweats nervously*
Your closing lines were very clever and apt.
RUclips music is sooo good i didnt even know 6:16 in la wasnt on streaming cause i found it easily on RUclips

That 1st week of May, 2024 was legendary and the best thing that could happen to the Clippers because folks were to busy to slander them lmao
This was a perfect video
Im just seeing this because im still living this dream and listening to all Kendrick's songs daily and when I feel down. You are hilarious and thank you❤
Drake uncle Larry Graham played on the Al Green track he had a album with Prince rest in peace to both 🙏
