Well, this settles it. Professor Skye and I have to start rap beef to save RUclips.
this would just be the ELUCID / JPEGMAFIA beef lmao
Maybe we do. Um.... you stink? Did that do it? Am I the beef master now? Um... Ro Ramdin, more like No Ramdin, or something. I could go on for days like this. When people, uh, watch your videos, they are like, "uh, no thanks RUclips, this is not for MeTube." I'm sure I'll have to wait for your response until you get back from the pharmacy with your burn cream and stuff.
@@professorskye hottest beef since curds & whey stopped fw each other

@@professorskye bars!!! Lol
Man what even is this channel? It’s brilliant. Never did I think my love of art history and rap beef cross over. Definitely sticking around for more of this
AVAA!!!
His analysis of Donda really captivated me, such a unique perspective that you really can’t find anywhere
welcome to the party !!🎉
You won't be disappointed he's a great dude
My initial thought too when I found it on accident
Euphoria: I don’t like you
6:16 in LA: Nobody likes you
Next Track: Adonis don't like you
@@Kuhmodowell aged comment
@@KuhmodoMeet the Grahams, Dear Adonis… 😂 damn you called that one.
Not Like Us: EVERYBODY don’t like you
Euphoria: I hate you
6:16 in LA: your own team hates you
Meet the Grahams: Your own family hates you
Not like Us: EVERYONE hates you
Euphoria is the pallet cleanser
6-16 in LA is the appetizer
Meet The Grahams is the main course
Not Like Us is the dessert
Hip Hop fans have eaten good!
Thank you Kendrick Lamar! 😊
The best analogy of K. Dot's roll out. You did that! I definitely have to leave Kendrick a hefty tip because I was well fed and his meal gave me musical nourishment.
Idk if Kendrick’s reclaiming a Savior trope with this battle,
but more along the lines of ‘When it’s in your power to do, you must”
A form of self-accountability/ responsibility that attributes to the greater good
Bc “if not me, who?” He cannot standby while the gimmicks perpetuate on
👏 👏 👏
I can't imagine being in a college hiphop class and this history is unfolding in front of us. Love it.
This song was Kendrick preparing to nuke Drake and warn him to stop before it was too late
i love that there’s been 2 songs since this 😂😂👀
I came to check if the professor already reacted to meet the grahams.
😂
professor we're waiting for you to drop a video dissing anthony fantano
Biggest drake stan ever.
@@jimboshrumpsarcasm¿
@@jimboshrumpFantano is team Kendrick
To be fair, this analysis is one of the worst done so far.
Hahaha!
Hey professor, AVAA! The most interesting factor to me is the single art and how it ties in to the theme of “you have a mole within your team”. If you reverse search the image, it doesn’t appear on the internet. This seems to be a glove Drake owns, and by using it as album art Kendrick is showing how close the leaks OVO has are to Drake. There’s also the easy symbolism of OJ and the black glove, and Michael Jackson with the single glove. Finally, in the first few lines Kendrick mentions buying a yacht… I think he is implying that Lil Yachy, Drakes friend and known ghostwriter, may be the mole… or he at least wants to make Drake paranoid about that. Really fun stuff!
I didn’t peep the idea of buying yatchy
Also “fuck a phantom I like to buy yachts” is referencing how yachts is a ghost writer for drake as well and how drake moved up from buying phantoms to write his shit to buying yachts
Sampling Al Green also has a Drake connection. Drake's great uncle Willie Mitchell was the vice president of Hi Records, owner of Royal Studios, and produced the majority of Al Green's 60's and 70's albums.
If I'm not mistaken, I believe Drake's father Dennis is also one of the studio musicians on that track.😁
Raphael the Archangel, the saint of healing. Kendrick says i can either heal you or give you art. He's talking about two different Raphaels. Also 6:16 could be a reference to Proverbs 6:16, the things God detests, or Revelations 6:16. Kendrick is on a different level. In yhe beginning of the song he says he would rather buy a yacht than a phantom, possibly referencing Lil yachty aka one of Drakes ghost writers. So many layers.
holy shit I missed the yacht & phantom. thanks
Also, depending on the translation 616 is also the mark of the beast.
I'm late but I'm glad you left this comment...I hope he read it. It's about the Archangel and the artist. K dot is deep
Just thought I'd point out some couple of details which might have been missed.
1. The album Cover is a picture of a 1 of 1 Maybach glove made exclusively for Drake which implies for kendrick to have a pic someone from Drake's team must have sent it to him , that ties back to the can't trust those around you theme.
2 . The intro about Survival is a ref to a drake song where he talks about surviving the streets and that intro line was followed with something liar.
Where are y’all getting this info? Is there a link for this?
Yeah please confirm this for us cause this would be some high level espionage that puts Kenny up a notch
@@markfarrens7733 tried to post the link to the speculation on Reddit. Comments got deleted.
I think the glove is also an OJ reference with the whole idea of “I’m not black I’m OJ” and “if the glove fits”
Also I feel like the saying n word stuff was more about how drake treats and sees the black community and blackness rather than his biracial identity. It’s like Candace Owen’s maybe shouldn’t say the N word either, but she not biracial .
Dr. Skye, I know you've been doing these videos super quickly for this beef. But for these final 2, you really should take your time. I think that's in everyone's best interests.
I'm conflicted on this. On the one hand I totally agree, but on the other there is something about the speed of the beef that actually makes quick videos feel necessary to be in the spirit of the moment. Not sure what I'm going to do.
@@professorskye Maybe both?
@@professorskye I remember you was conflicted
@@professorskye do it fast then revise it later
The cover art is a picture of Drake’s Maybach Gloves, while it doesn’t seem significant it’s a pic that was never posted online or shared to anybody which further reinforces the idea Kendrick is trying to tell Drake that there is a mole in his entourage who has been potentially leaking sensitive info to him.
Also AVAA
Ummmm... Professor Skye?! You're gonna wanna see this!!
As it turns out, not an addendum; a preface.
6/16 is also when the TV show Euphoria aired
6/16 2011 is the first time Kendrick played a show in Toronto
I've also seen people claim it was a reference to Proverbs 6:16 (about God hating Drake's character flaws), Corinthians 6:16 (about lying with prostitutes, i.e. Drake's baby mama), and/or Luke 6:16 (about Judas Iscariot)
I like seeing it as Jeremiah 6:16, too. It pretty much says "god told you to walk the right path and you picked the wrong one."
And since its 6:16 *in LA* i like to think kendrick is also telling Drake to watch his step when he visits LA
Also Tupac’s birthday
Also Nicole brown’s funeral
Also my dog's mother's sister baby pups birthday....so what
Just for fun, Drake is the 6 God, and 16 is the age he likes his women
What a year to be attending your class. My goodness!
AVAA Professor! I’m glad that you still are making the best analysis content here❤
I think Kendrick is linking his three songs together to say I can take all of your styles and do them better than you. Like that is the better club song, euphoria when you want to go after the battle rap crowd. And 6:16 is for the lyrical crowd. I predict the final song that will drop will explicitly ties that theme together, where we can use each song as a reference to how he is better than Drake. This is a high brow battle
This comment aged like fine wine 🍷
Its funny i never viewed this as Kendrick reluctantly putting on the savior mantle before. I had thought of it as him feeling like he has to prove who he is to himself by going through with this. Both views have him feeling hesitant but after the subjects of the follow up tracks i can absolutely see him picking up the savior identity again
Thanx prof. Always love to hear your take, very different
Incredible work
christ i’m glad i found your channel, you’re awesome man!! loved everything about this video and your other content looks so interesting too
i love the detail that in this one he fuckin confess before the murder Holy shit
Thank you for juggling everything so gracefully- truly inspirational!
AVAA: Professor: We need a Mozart-Salieri breakdown in the next video you do about this (hint: this is a much bigger cultural moment than that was)
Raphael isn’t necessarily the Renaissance painter. More likely to be the archangel considering how shot through Kendrick’s rhymes are with Christian Black Liberation Theology
Bonjour from Paris. I've been watching every video of you since the begining of the "clash"
A brilliant dude who appreciates the culture coming at it with an intricate analysis💯 someone we all needed🤙🏼
Thank you for your work professor
I love that this exists. Thanks!
Love this channnel❤
Glad I found your channel.
I don’t always agree with your takes but I respect you a lot! Much love professor.
Needed this video during exam week
do a video on meet the grahams , it more than just a diss track. i teared up listening to it
It's actually crazy. As someone who had a pretty shitty dad, who's 18 in a few months, the advice K gave Adonis resonated way too much, man. Hit exactly like he wanted to. And that final bit was 🤌💯💯
@@donnie1725 yeah man. to me its like another mr. morale moment. i totally teared up listening to that 3rd verse he put so much in this track. and the last verse was really personal. i think its the best one in this battle
It’s psychological horror. The song drains you and you can hear the weight and burden of it in the cadence and delivery of Kendricks voice all backed up by the repeating piano notes that keep you unsettled and uncomfortable. It’s a masterpiece and probably the most impactful diss track of all time.
@@septic1502 yeah exactly. ive never heard something like this in rap. let alone in a diss track
The way you broke down made me want to subscribe but realized I subscribed from the beginning
Thank you Professor!
Wow, and thank you! Very generous
I love the analysis.. I think another major component of this particular piece of the puzzle is that this is HIP HOP.. this is traditional soul sample shit just straight spitting the whole way through. This is for the purists. This is for the east coast old heads.. it’s him rooting himself even deeper in the culture while checking another box. “I can do this better than you too” it’s him activating another section of the ground around him and if you look at his whole body of work in this battle as a whole , it’s more important than people think. I fucking love this song lol
This has to be the best channel ever
fr
I really like your reviews....
Kendrick has y'all working overtime 😂
I love it.
Love this channel. 🙏
AVAA! Love the honesty!
You wanted a ceasefire and little did you know…
6:12 this whole sidebar about mannerism is absolutely golden, got damn
You’re awesome just found the channel
AVAA awaiting your takes and analysis on TWO songs.
Didn’t think about that part being the thesis but makes sense 🎯👌🏼
Also the beat keeps saying “boy wonder” and boi1da was given writing credits on push-ups
Meet The Grams!
I'll be looking forward to your analysis😳😬
you're big vibes keep it up
Breaking down the Toosie slide reference: To start the song is named after an Atlanta choreographer...
@ 8:20 you mention Kendrick's line "you can't toosie slide out of this one"... for further reference, Drake's song Toosie slide ( @ the 2 : 35 mark) features a picture of P.Diddy, which is ironic. Knowing the history there, Diddy in 2014 slapped/punched Drake over the 0-100 beat he used that was originally for Diddy. Yet in 2020 your dancing in a room w/ a picture of Diddy on the wall in 2020, it's weird to idolize your aggressor. And in Toosie slide, for a summer jam was rather dark. In it Drake exclaims the dance is a reference to sliding on his op's when the timing is convenient. That they'll spin the block in the summer if they have to. He references his enforcer (Chubbs - Drakes head of security + also failed sports bar owner), & others as being willing to do the work for him...
So fast forward... you can't toosie slide out of this one, is an ominous warning to Drake, that Drake fails to take seriously. However, Drake lacks self-awareness, & none of the "yes men" around him have the depth to grasp the reality Aubrey faces. He's basically telling Drake that this "fade" or fight, is for him.... that there will be fireworks just like in the music video. In contrast like Diddy, Drake has a history of bullying verbally women who reject him (ex; Serena, Rhianna, Meg The Stallion. Thinking critically, even Drake is facing the prospect of a Diddy-esque video release via the hands of EbonyPrince2k24 that could potentionally end his career. In the "First Person Shooter" video at the 3 : 38 mark Drake enters an elevator full of dogs, who's collars all bear womens names (b-words he owns)... the other allegation Drake (like Diddy) faces is that he's tied to a sex trafficking ring... hence why in "Not Like Us" - Kendrick mentions Baka, the OVO affiliate who was charged w/ sex trafficking.... in Meet The Grahams - "They be streamlinin' victims all inside of they home and callin' 'em tender (tinder). it's alleged that Drake's personnel screen the women he sleeps with (escort business front). Its alleged that Drake's baby mother former soft core pornstar was also a celebrity escort (which is why Drake will never marry her... its alleged ASAP Rocky hit it first)
Irony is in Toosie slide, Drake references black leather glove, not the one with sequins... "its an OJ metaphor"... hence why Kendrick dropped Euphoria on 6/16. Not only is that Fathers Day, Tupacs Birthday, a metaphor for implied bible verses (Corinthians/Isaiah/Proverbs/Revelations)... its also the day Nicole Simpson was buried. Hence why the cover art on Meet The Grahams was of an MMG glove that Drake owned. Its shade at Drake for saying he'd essentially get away with murder or other things, because of his celebrity as implied in the "Toosie Slide" video.
Sooo when Kendrick says you can't Toosie slide your way out of this one, he's basically setting Drake up for Meet The Grahams, & Not Like Us in a subtle way that only Drake should understand. It makes the history lesson in "Not Like Us" resonate that much louder. Drake is a cultural appropriater... Aubrey Columbus turns a dance in Atlanta into one of his best dance records, but doesn't put the choreographer on, or anyone from Atlanta in the music video. He could have flown people to his mansion, or shot the music video in Atlanta.... which is why the "culture vulture" jacket is so fitting for Drake. He's a colonzing settler in hiphop that lacks cultural awareness.
Thats the depth of the Toosie slide bar from Kendrick in a nut shell
Bravo 👏
i think raphael also refers to kendrick being the arch angel furthering the gatekeeper status
i would genuinely love to have you as a teacher
It was a warning for Meet the Grahams
The Elohim bar is the hardest bar in the entire beef
This is an Al Green sample
Well this didnt age well, it was in fact a warning
The song was him saying multiple things. The things he believe in. His power. His morals. He praises and thanks God for his life. He doesn’t want to do it for sure but needs to and if he does, he appreciates the lessons in it. He compares himself to the angel Raphael and the artist of the same name and everything that his mind is able to comprehend and create is a gift from God.
Then proceeds to address Drake after addressing himself in the mirror. And like you said, Drake doesn’t have any of what his has. No friends. No God. Just snakes in his camp and he’s alone.
gave me chills to read 🙏 love this breakdown
AVAA the secret messages, signals and nods you've been leaving me are deeply appreciated
I understood what you meant when you said gatekeeper. Just when thinking in today's context it's a negative association, so folks get stuck with the feeling of the word. Just thinking about the feelings that are associated with words. If you were to supplement the word "gatekeeper" with "guardian" maybe it would be easier to digest. But also following your thought process maybe the feeling is a combination of "guardian" (in action) but also "champion" in mindset.?!?!
AVAA! after the twitter bots bar i think your trump analogy works better in my brain professor. May his regime falls apart quick
2:48 - Love your sarcastic Humor, new subbie 💖
What if name it AL, but OWL 🦉? 👀
Short ahh video, but still awesome as always
Prof. wasn't Dille the one who innovated by this chopping technique? im just asking since i'm pretty sure i've heard that first from him, very good video!
6:23 Rafael is an archangel with healing properties as well
It be a shame if those items in the picture came out of drake's house.
I think although Drake cannot be kicked out completely, the fact that Kendrick says the culture does not like or respect him. Will he continue using cosplaying as a black American now that he has been called out? Now that everyone knows that the accent is fake and he has imaginary ties to the mob will he continue talking about that in his music. Another element that Kendrick alludes to in this new song is that Drake's does not come across as someone that is maturing and growing at all.
I mean it's been a running joke in the Rap world for a while now. Idk if that would stop his popularity. I think the corny slave bars on "Family Matters" would have a bigger impact.
Teacher of the year
Subbed
AVAA - Have a great weekend!
GOAT Analyst AVAA!!
It was a bait/warning shot. He knew family matters was coming.
avaa best professor
A conversation between you and F.D. Signifier would be so interesting.
Could you do a video on the mannerism point please bro
2 more tracks have dropped!!!
Where you at!?
I enjoyed the little jab at Eminem with that slant rhyme comment. Them's fightin words in academia...
Seems like there needs to be a follow up to this video now that we know more about the meaning about this song
AVAA 🙏🙌🙏🙌🙏
I just found your channel holy fuck this is amazing! Big sub I’ll def be coming back!
Proverbs 6:16, Tupac's birthday, Canadian Father’s Day and Euphoria premiere.
APAA! (Premiere)
AVAA!!!!!
Found this channel! Found 5/6
He Raphael the Angel and Raphael the art. The angel heals. The artist arts.
Prof, Kendrick drop Meet The Grahams and Drake drop Family Matters. You should dissect that, sir.
Some of these takes are good
0:27 It's Friday, I want to get home. I want to see my family
The way Kendrick got all the dudes being good fathers. That's the best thing coming out of this war.
Can we have an honest conversation here? Drake was the darling breakout artist in 2009 and 2010 and then went on to become a megastar. He could rap, he could sing (kind of), he was funny, witty, charming, and well spoken. But he could also jump on songs with Lil Wayne and just rap his ass off. He wasnt the greatest, but he was serviceable and he churned out hit after hit and accumulated wealth beyond imagination. He surpassed everyone. He seemingly could not miss. He wrote songs for other big artists. He collaborated with artists like Future and Young Thug, Migos, 21 Savage, Weeknd, and helped them all ascend in their own rights. He contributed. And he brought people like Kendrick on tour and brought G Eazy on tour and he was friendly and hospitable and spoke highly of them to arenas full of people that were not familiar with them. He put Kendrick, a nobody at the time, on his second album, a classic, and Kendrick contributed an absolutly GARBAGE track on an album that was studded with gems. And then Kendrick comes back on 6:16 in LA and says im better than you, which hes not. No one likes you, which also isnt true. KD was literally just at his house this week. OVO works for me. They dont. Kendrick will never be as big as OVO, ever. Hes not in the same stratosphere. And then he went on to rap a bunch of subpar to mid level rhymes, at best, that barely rhymed, didnt make sense, or just flat out werent true. There was no evidence of any dope rhyming whatsoever anywhere on this song and NO ONE is mentioning it. Everyone just laughs that he's making fun of Drake and completely glossing over the fact there are no rhymes. No hot bars. No punch lines. I live in Circadian rhytms of a shooting star???? That's not a hot bar, first of all. Go listen to Jadakiss so you can hear what REAL rap sounds like. Second, shooting stars don't have circadian rhythms. Third, let's pretend we live in a make-believe world where shooting stars have circadian rythms...you dont live in a circadian ryhthm, you have one. Nothing he says is dope from a lyrical perspective. He's not a dope rhymer. He has no bars. His delivery sounds terrible. His voice sounds terrible. And he doesn't inspire intelligence. He sounds SO dumb. He tries so hard to sound smart. He wants to be an MC so bad but heisn't hip-hop. He's an industry plant. Everyone says he's so good without any evidence whatsoever of him actually being good. He's never displayed it. Not like Lupe Fiasco. Not like Canibus. Not like Big Pun. Not like Jay Z or Nas or Biggie. He's not like us. He can't rap and no one is talking about it. Drake is a much better rhymer. Lupe said it. Joyner Lucas said it. Nas is not impressed. Cam'Ron and Mase are not impressed. I'm not impressed. As a diss record, this song is terrible. As a random track to listen to, it's fine. Better than Euphoria. But it's not a diss record. I'd rather listen to ANYTHING on Lupe Fiasco's Samurai than this. There are no bars here. Too mid for me as a lifelong hip-hop fan. Stop the cap, professor. Kendrick ain't got it.
And there’s already a fourth one 😂
I don’t think he is gate keeping. This is a sport . It has rules like anything else . You can just come in and make your own rules . You have a time for your class , students don’t get to just walk in when they want. Such is life ….
Unless your 2pac or xxx or other rappers that don’t “play by the rules”
Next time you do a video on Kendrick's music, wear that LA Raiders cap in the back.
AAAAA
I'm sick @home so this comes Handy 🤒
Drake just replied....
kendrick too!!!
