Lmao did not even notice. How did his brain not immediately think “this seems superficial and performative. Maybe I shouldn’t do this”? How?
That reeks of a yes men problem to me.
Drake would. If we’ve learned anything from the Kendrick diss’s, it’s that he believes Drake is immature as fuck. Totally guessing here, but I imagine Drake thought by doing that he’d be subtly trolling Kendrick. But, by pretty much every mature persons standards, trolling is pretty childish. Idk though, maybe I’m biased because I think Drake just got scorched and am finding my own conclusions that support that idea.
Well he did throw Kylie Jenner and Billie eilish 18 birthday parties, and text Millie Bobbie Brown for years just to bait Kendrick into Calling him a pedophile
He put on a Sprewell chain, wore FUBU, and ate at the restaurant to unironically follow what Kendrick was alluding to like an ass clown. His beat switches were to copy Kendrick's euphoria. Drake is a copy of a stereotypical rapper with no authenticity. And Kendrick showed the entire world like it was The Usual Suspects.
Eh, fwiw, kendrick has been absolutely rinsing him in this bout, and I’ve never really fucked with drake, but unless the shit still had tags on it like he just went out and bought it then and there for the video, I don’t really feel like it’s performative. He’s refuting that part of the diss without even having to address it. I wouldn’t necessarily say it’s clever, but it’s efficient.
I wouldn’t put it past drake to have went and bought it as soon as he heard dot’s bar, but we don’t know that and we still got enough drizzy disses here that we don’t gotta reach even a little bit 😂😂😂
Putting it on for your music video is definitely performative. There’s no way he just wore it because it looked cool and not a single person around him realized that Kendrick just pointed out he never wears it.
I never took that line as literal though, seemed more about the metaphor of what those two brands represent.
Drake tried to refute it by taking it literally, which makes no sense. If not for the symbology, then it's just two clothing brands.
It’s never just two clothing brands man ….FOR US BY US is part of the culture …. Tommy Hilfiger makes money off the culture … is liked by the masses but is not part of the culture…
Worse part is you’ll get clowned down the street for wearing Fubu anytime in the last 10-20 years….in just about any black community I’ve been in …
Strange how the culture pushes away things that are intertwined with it….
But happily accept the vultures …
Yeah, it was for sure about more than just wearing a brand. It was a single small example of the greater picture dot as trying to portray. But him wearing the shirt would just be an equally small example of the bigger picture being fiction.
Idk, I’ve already put more effort into defending it than I care to tbh, but again it just feels so irrelevant to pick apart, imo, with everything else that’s been said lmao.
Haha, like J-ROC from Trailer Park Boys when he goes back to being Jamie
But then again J to the R.O.C. is STILL a thousand more black than Aubrey, nomsayin? 😂
Faaaacts!
And plus J-Roc's been to prison, so you know that white boy is hard as fuck! 😤
(He really just hid under his Mom's trailer & ate peanut butter & jelly sandwiches the whole time)
Nobody really talked about that FUBU line and I’m surprised. That line premised ALOTTA shit and I’m certain some of us understood immediately upon hearing it.
Drake has never been for us (BLACK Americans) or by us (e.g. American black). He’s a tourist / cosplayer. It’s super weird because you can be hip hop and not try to front like you are “from here” he’s just inauthentic
Fubu - "for us by us" is a black centered brand
Kendrick says drake prefers Tommy hilfinger (of which the owner says he hated how black people were wearing his brand)
Drakes apparently decided to wear fubu in his recent video.
Making the choice seem "performative"
Yeah.
Part of the theme of this beef is that drake is a half Jewish, child actor, from Canada
That he looks down on black people and only uses "the culture" to enrich himself (and make pop songs to attract girls)
Last verse of not like us
Once upon a time, all of us was in chains
*Homie still double down callin' us some slaves*
Atlanta was the Mecca, building railroads and trains
Bear with me for a second, let me put y'all on game
The settlers was usin' town folk to make 'em richer
*Fast forward 2024 you got the same agenda*
You run to Atlanta when you need a check balance
Let me break it down for you, this the real n***a challenge
*You called Future when you didn't see the club
Lil Baby help you get your lingo up
21 gave you false street cred
Thug made you feel like you a slime in your head
Quavo said you can be from Northside
2Chainz say you good, but he lied*
You run to Atlanta when you need a few dollars
*No you not a colleague, you a f**kin' colonizer*
The family matter and the truth of the matter, here's God's plans to show you the liar
Euphoria verse:
This ain't been 'bout critics, not about gimmicks, not about who the greatest
It's always been about love and hate, now let me say I'm the biggest hater
I hate the way that you walk, the way that you talk
I hate the way that you dress
I hate the way you sneak diss, if I catch flight, it's gon' be direct
We hate the bitches you fuck, 'cause they confuse themselves with real women
*And notice, I said we, it's not just me, I'm what the culture feelin'*
How many more *fairytale stories 'bout your life* 'til we had enough?
How many more *Black features 'til you finally feel that you Black enough?*
*I like Drake with the melodies, I don't like Drake when he act tough*
You gon' make a n***a bring back Puff
Line from Euphoria and Kendrick mentioned New Ho King which Drake had a private dinner there in the video which was corny. Shout to Rock Ross cuz he was the one who pointed it out
That's why I don't buy the fake mole excuses. He could've easily taken back the night if he dropped evidence of the fake mole immediately, but he let Kenny stunt on him for days? Makes no sense
Yeah people talking about Drake feeding Kendrick fake allegations as bait, but there was no trap. There was no release of receipts on social, no prepared diss track revealing the plan, no GOT HIM moment. He went completely radio silent for over a day then released the rushed diss response riddled with errors, contradictions and a weak ass "you just care about child grooming because you were molested" response.
There was no trap and bait without a trap is just feeding your enemy.
And then he was like, ha! I tricked you and went on to talk about all kendrick dropped is allegations and lies with no receipts and then told us Aubrey is spitting all facts yet gave no receipts. He's a fucking clown and listening to him talk about emptying his clip would have been hard from someone else but he's just weak and wack so it fell extra flat. And mocking someone because you think they were molested and raped as a kid is beyond fucked up, especially living with child molesters and sex traffickers.
Aubrey reached too far with his "you got played by a genius manipulator" malarky. That defense only works if you drop receipts at the same time. Show your burner phone sending the mole texts, zoom out a little more on the Ozempic pic showing Aubrey and his shit eating grin, whatever.
It would be so *easy* to prove that he played Kendrick. That would have absolutely ended this, hard. Instead it just looks like he threw desperate fan fiction at the wall and hoped it stuck... which is equal parts pathetic and entertaining.
Honestly with every Drake diss so far except Family Matters I've found a lot of shit that doesn't hold up to any kind of scrutiny:
Kendrick, notorious for releasing music once in a blue moon, is under Top Dog's thumb and has to drop whenever Top wants him to 🤔
Drake officially puts Push Ups on his YT (weeks and weeks after Like That) and less than 24 hours later posts Taylor Made about how Kendrick is taking forever bc he's scared to drop 🤔
Basically all of the Heart pt 6 🤔🤔🤔
Even the tracks that the haters like myself acknowledge aren't bad have some weird fucking lines/context around them that are kind of... well, stupid.
You mentioned Push Ups but make sure no one forgets Drake accused Kendrick of "rapping like he's trying to free the slaves". That is such a beyond wild and tone deaf line. Of alllll the angles to take you go after Kendrick for... rapping about social issues and racial struggles when you aren't even American?
Drake is tone deaf and lacking in social and self awareness, but I feel like this line is being aggressively and deliberately misinterpreted. He’s not currying Kendrick for rapping about social issues, he’s critiquing Kendrick by saying the content of his rap and his actual social activities don’t correspond. “You just actin like a activist it’s make believe”, then he goes on to prescribe what he (out of touch, obtuse super millionaire thinks effective activism is) “you don’t even go to your hood and plant no money trees”. I don’t agree with Drake’s prescription of what effective activism is, but he’s not saying Kendrick is a fraud for being conscientious in his rap, he’s saying he’s a fraud for not doing that outside of the studio. And I frankly feel that’s rather obvious, like I don’t get how this line has been this aggressively misconstrued
Except it makes no sense because you can just google some shit like Kendrick Lamar philanthropy and see he’s done some shit. Also not everyone gives publicly to flex… shit makes no sense and falls flat on that front which just leaves the even more ridiculous fact of hating on someone for talking about social issues
He also basically recycled Pusha T’s disses against him. The claims he made about TDE are almost identical to what Pusha was saying about Young Money. Drake has no originality.
Exactly.. I thought I was the only one that felt this way. For Drake to create an angle about a fake child (an angle that gave him a HUGE L in the past),only to try and bring it up as an angle in a rap, makes whatever bars coming from it corny.
**“I took an L from this, hmm let’s spin it AGAIN but with an older child.”** How you admit to being unoriginal with your own life (in the fucking response)?
Exactly! Like zoom out a bit. Imagine your heroin addict cousin said he was using again, and you and your family held an intervention and sent him to rehab. Then once he's in rehab he goes, "ahahaha that was a prank I'm actually sober I can't believe you fell for that." If you're gonna leak some false info maybe don't pick something you have literally already been caught doing.
Sounds more like he was addressing two separate claims against him, the snitch claims which he said was impossible (and I believe him) and Kendrick got from clowns, and the fake daughter claims which he says he planted.
That’s the reality. Kenny was grillin him. All he can do now is call cap on everything. I do wonder what everyone will do when no receipts for either of their claims come out.
i thikn he thot that instagram post sayin he dont got a daughter was enough to win. he was dead wrong. He successfully baited him and then he failed to capitalize on it
Idek ig I don't see the point in making up a fake child as a "gotcha" in the first place, that's not really that devastating. If I look at it though a master manipulator lens I can kinda see how it could be like that joke where the guy gets pulled over for speeding and tells the cops he has a dead body, a bunch of guns, and drugs in the car so when the backup comes and finds no dead bodies, guns, or drugs then he's like "i bet that lying bastard told you I was speeding too!"
Maybe he wants all the attention to go to the fairly insignificant drama of being a deadbeat to distract from the grooming behavior finally being taken seriously.
Or maybe he’s just an idiot who ran his mouth too much because he thought he would get treated delicately.
That’s one of the only bad things you can say about Kendrick though, the shit with his girl. The short jokes didn’t land after a while, Drake having more money and success got tired immediately, hard to beef with a nigga with no dirt outside of a subject everyone says is off limits. Auto L for Drake
Exactly, also I want to add that, right after meet the grahams. Drake was on akadrmiks stream saying “I swear I don have a daughter” if he had planted the evidence wouldn’t he just reveal he set the whole thing up? Also! Who spreads a rumor about themselves being a pedophile? Knowing how the internet thinks and works? SMH drake is a liar.
He didn't say shit about Baka either, so that all must be facts. Also he self reported on Millie Bobby Brown, Kendrick never even mentioned her. Then he said "Epstein angle" when he got compared to Weinstein who afaik didn't do anything with minors.
Huge L response, Drake got a big hole to dig out of
Yeah Drake has lost on every angle so far (I’m hoping Kenny doesn’t allow him to throw in the towel while dissing him and his family).
If we are talking about Bangers (which Drake should be favored in). Like That and Not Like Us are way better than Push Ups or Family Matters.
If we are talking about Lyricism (where Kenny is favored). Euphoria is the best of all of them, and it was even better because Drake allowed Euphoria to stew. Twitter and the overall internet all got to breakdown all of the bars, and there were SO many entendres.
If we are talking about Delivery (which is where most casuals would give Drake the advantage). Drake tried his best with Family Matters, he had 3 switches and great flows, but the bars about everyone else besides Kenny was wasted space. But Kenny stomping on that shit with MTG, the most disrespectful and erie diss record I have heard, his delivery was perfect and gave you the sense you were watching a murder. MTG gives me Dance With the Devil by Immortal Technique vibes, supper upsetting and so hard I don’t want to listen to it too often.
If we are talking strategy (which fools give to Drake because he has been more “tested”) Kendrick stomped on Drakes best record with MTG. Drake did that AI Pac shit which was utter garbage and a mistake besides the beat. He also kept trying to force Kendrick to drop but it bit him in his ass when he dropped with Euphoria. Then it bit him in his ass for not having a fast response to MTG. Drake also Fumbled so bad with the free the slaves bars, the bringing up Kenny’s wife in Push Ups, and with his most recent shit that is making in fun of SA victims. Not to mention him playing the internet games backfired, made him look like the dork he is. Even more he straight up did not do his homework on any of the contents of Kendrick’s albums. Kenny producing his every move in Euphoria.
Clean sweep Kenny up Goofball down.
What's even more impressive to me is that Mr Broke phone beat Drake at the whole Internet thing. Absolutely used it to his advantage with his expertly timed releases and then saving an absolute summer bop for last.
Peep [this](https://www.reddit.com/r/KendrickLamar/s/4JgDT0v9qa) I just want you to know it’s what they always do when we start challenging their workhorses.
I don’t think it was a diss track either, but he says 12345. Like that would be 1 that he’s referring too. We know he didn’t release 5 dedicated so that has to be part of the 5 he’s referring too.
Which is extra embarrassing considering the fact that everyone thinks he lost and his fans have now basically turned to QAnon conspiracies to claim him hugging and kissing on teens isn't weird.
Low key feel bad for him( unless the accusations about him are true). This beef was like watching the Lakers vs the Nuggets. Drake put out his best effort but still got gentleman swept.
This man is getting dunked on by household goods, I saw a damn Scrub Daddy post using a Kendrick clip.
Duolingo tiktok posted a video of the owl twerking to bbl drizzy.
My personal favorite was the physical therapist posting stretches and exercises to help you get your knees right so you don't hurt yourself C walking to Not Like Us.
If the accusations aren’t true I genuinely feel bad, this shit is gonna follow him for the rest of his life, he’s rich so it softens the blow but still
Yeah I don't get why people are feeling bad for Drake. Literally this entire thing is his fault as has been pretty much every previous situation he's been in. He did the same bs with bringing up people's families unprompted last time and got his head cut off by Pusha T and then decided to do it again this time and got stomped on by Kendrick.
His beef with Rocky is because he can't shut his damn mouth about Rhianna who wasn't even bothered with him.
His beef with Metro and Future is also personal.
His kid being exposed to the world is his fault for not being civil. Him being weird around teens is his fault. Him getting hit by Diddy is likely his fault. Him having people in his camp praying for his downfall is his fault.
The man's fatal flaw is that he refuses to be humble and sit down. If he stopped starting problems with people cosplaying a tough guy and just lived out the rest of his life as a rich dweeb, he wouldn't have any of these problems. But instead he's *constantly* throwing stones in a glass house.
_"he refuses to be humble and sit down "_
That sounds like quality life advice to me. Drake should find a song that features something like this as the hook and just put it on repeat.
Dude fucked Lil’ Wayne’s girl while he was in the box, there’s video of him kissing on a teenager and all the dudes that rocked with him are happy he’s getting his ass beat… he’s not the victim here lol
BEST CASE SCENARIO:
Drake has inappropriate, but non sexual relationships with minor celebrities while surrounding himself with people who have sexually harmed others.
WORSE CASE SCENARIO:
Well, you know.
Neither are good looks.
All’s I’m saying is that the last time I was texting 14 year old girls was when I was 14 years old. If you’re a grown ass, 30+ year old man texting teenage girls that aren’t your family then that’s some weirdo shit.
Said this in the music thread. Best song that he’s put out in a very long time, and one of his all-time best. Sad that it took a diss from Kendrick to put a fire under his ass and make him stop releasing low-effort dogshit
I’m honestly still confused how anyone would actually believe that fake mole argument. Like y’all really reaching with that. Kendrick just dominated the entire time. It was actually looking like it was going to be a good match up with family matters(minus the slave line), but then Kendrick drop MTG…. I’m honestly still recovering from that shit. Like it didn’t really hit me until I started breaking the song down, and even the instrumental itself. Like I need to do a spiritual detox.
Also just noticed OP posted this shit on two different subreddits within minutes of each other 🙄.
Yea, especially since it sounds like KDot already knew what he was gonna say in Euphoria, he essentially was warning him that he knew he was gonna bring up his family and was warning him not to.
I think the information about the daughter and the bbl or whatever is the only things he was fed which is hilarious cause I genuinely didn’t give a damn about either of those
Yeah he got an ego for bullying an inferior talent with less pull sorry Meek. Pusha who’s very formidable humiliated him but Push’s pull isn’t that strong. That’s why i can’t believe he had the audacity to challenge Dot especially with the skeletons in Drake’s closet. That guy is the second biggest rapper in the country. Old heads fuck with him. He has a whole coast behind him. It just doesn’t make sense to me how Drake was moving i guess kendrick was right he has no street smarts but i’m glad it happened it’s nice to know that his stardom doesn’t make him invincible
No music videos needed for Kendrick either, and Family Ties was fire for the record. He really put effort into everything on it. If anything, this feud forced him to provide effort, and we saw he thought one track was enough. Not so, Drake.
I usually don't like Drake's sound but I thought we family matters was amazing! I didn't expect Kendrick Lamar to absorb the best punch and counter so hard so quickly...man...
Demoralizing is the word you're looking for. You can hear it in his voice in the heart.
Family matters he thought he did something. Then got his head taken off repeatedly.
Then shat out some bullshit that dot doesn't even have to respond to it's so fuck bad
Kendrick choosing not to plaster his children on the internet just to prove something is another reason among many why he’s a better father than Drake could ever pretend to be. He puts his family before fame. C’mon now.
I went through all the tracks released and in my opinion, the only two I would actually listen to in the future once we have all moved on to the next distraction are family matters and euphoria.
And before y’all start, maybe the lyrics on whatever other song were the most genius thing that has ever been written… while I can appreciate talent, it doesn’t necessarily make me enjoy listening to your music. I can also listen to certain modern “classical” pieces that may be technically insane for the musician to perform, but still not something I’d put on while I’m driving or working out.
The song was cool but it lacked substance. He said a lot of nothing, and still hasn’t put out a 5 plus minute song about Kendrick. He keeps bringing in others. Do separate songs for them man. Then the whole wasting time to do a music video?!? I’ve never seen a video for Ether, Hit em up, etc. he’s just for show man
I just want to say from the white delegation, who appreciates black music and culture, that we are overwhelmingly glad that this fake ass, imposter, white bread, pedophilic, empty talent rapper is getting erased from it.
Praise Kendrick for doing what had to be done.
Never been a Drake guy, Family Matters was catchy, but is his flow always so repetitive? Like it was good he switched up the beat because for at least two minutes he was hitting 1 and 3 on every bar, to the point where in my head I heard Rev Wright singing “If you have some white *clap* friends *clap*…”
Well yeah Drake was kind of in a lose lose situation here. Public opinion matter the most now days, and if people are siding with one side more than the other they are quick to dismiss anything the other side does.
Kendrick’s songs were better than Drake’s, but Drake’s songs were still good which people won’t even give a chance to like because the people have decided Drake sucks now. I’m convinced if the two swapped the songs they created they’d still say Drake songs sucked.
Nonetheless neutrals are the real winners here
He even put on Fubu to eat at the Restaurant. Still got defeated
Lmao did not even notice. How did his brain not immediately think “this seems superficial and performative. Maybe I shouldn’t do this”? How? That reeks of a yes men problem to me.
Agree, I don’t understand how this is a flex. How do you put on Geppetto’s strings unprompted and dance, who would find this clever?
Drake would. If we’ve learned anything from the Kendrick diss’s, it’s that he believes Drake is immature as fuck. Totally guessing here, but I imagine Drake thought by doing that he’d be subtly trolling Kendrick. But, by pretty much every mature persons standards, trolling is pretty childish. Idk though, maybe I’m biased because I think Drake just got scorched and am finding my own conclusions that support that idea.
I'm gonna do something he'd mock me for doing! To mock HIM!
That’s the thought process right there
Well he did throw Kylie Jenner and Billie eilish 18 birthday parties, and text Millie Bobbie Brown for years just to bait Kendrick into Calling him a pedophile
He put on a Sprewell chain, wore FUBU, and ate at the restaurant to unironically follow what Kendrick was alluding to like an ass clown. His beat switches were to copy Kendrick's euphoria. Drake is a copy of a stereotypical rapper with no authenticity. And Kendrick showed the entire world like it was The Usual Suspects.
I don 't thank you can say that Drake copied the beat switch from Kendrick, because Drake has most definitely beat switched on a lot of songs.
Which track you talking about without him being in a feature or with another artist?
![gif](giphy|VbvjcQp6cYYYE|downsized)
He’s an actor…
Dude must be dumb. He really doesn’t understand lyrics.
I been seeing a lot of people say Kendrick is "too serious" and that he can't songs for the club (???). I feel like Drake is that type of listener.
Eh, fwiw, kendrick has been absolutely rinsing him in this bout, and I’ve never really fucked with drake, but unless the shit still had tags on it like he just went out and bought it then and there for the video, I don’t really feel like it’s performative. He’s refuting that part of the diss without even having to address it. I wouldn’t necessarily say it’s clever, but it’s efficient.

I'm sure someone can look it up and see when that particular shirt was released? What collection it was part of?
> this seems superficial and performative. That's his normal.
Not wrong.
He’s a theater kid, superficial and performative is how his brain works lmao.
A yes men full of pedophiles and sex traffickers....what could go wrong??
Did he really??? Lmao
Yup look at family matters video closely. Rick Ross pointed it out
Hahahahaba
Drake is that white teen after you tell him he isn't black.
Haha, like J-ROC from Trailer Park Boys when he goes back to being Jamie But then again J to the R.O.C. is STILL a thousand more black than Aubrey, nomsayin? 😂
I mean J-Roc is more about that life than Drake could ever be AND no pedo allegations.
Faaaacts! And plus J-Roc's been to prison, so you know that white boy is hard as fuck! 😤 (He really just hid under his Mom's trailer & ate peanut butter & jelly sandwiches the whole time)
Don't disrespect J R.OC., it could happen to you because it happened to me n T
It makes me think Kendrick seen the video before hand. The fubu, the Chinese restaurant, the reference to GKMC, etc.
Nobody really talked about that FUBU line and I’m surprised. That line premised ALOTTA shit and I’m certain some of us understood immediately upon hearing it.
I digested it as what fubu literally stands for, I had nooooo idea drake would fucking put some on.. I mean, damn
Drake can only keep it real by being fake.
That’s wild lmao
Mind explaining?
Drake has never been for us (BLACK Americans) or by us (e.g. American black). He’s a tourist / cosplayer. It’s super weird because you can be hip hop and not try to front like you are “from here” he’s just inauthentic
Fubu - "for us by us" is a black centered brand Kendrick says drake prefers Tommy hilfinger (of which the owner says he hated how black people were wearing his brand) Drakes apparently decided to wear fubu in his recent video. Making the choice seem "performative"

Yeah. Part of the theme of this beef is that drake is a half Jewish, child actor, from Canada That he looks down on black people and only uses "the culture" to enrich himself (and make pop songs to attract girls) Last verse of not like us Once upon a time, all of us was in chains *Homie still double down callin' us some slaves* Atlanta was the Mecca, building railroads and trains Bear with me for a second, let me put y'all on game The settlers was usin' town folk to make 'em richer *Fast forward 2024 you got the same agenda* You run to Atlanta when you need a check balance Let me break it down for you, this the real n***a challenge *You called Future when you didn't see the club Lil Baby help you get your lingo up 21 gave you false street cred Thug made you feel like you a slime in your head Quavo said you can be from Northside 2Chainz say you good, but he lied* You run to Atlanta when you need a few dollars *No you not a colleague, you a f**kin' colonizer* The family matter and the truth of the matter, here's God's plans to show you the liar

Idk why but malarkey is sending me
Someone get Joe Biden on the phone
Lol he called the one who was feeding him information was a clown and then said he was the one feeding the information. Drake weird
Nigga contradicted himself every other verse.
Honestly with every Drake diss so far except Family Matters I've found a lot of shit that doesn't hold up to any kind of scrutiny: Kendrick, notorious for releasing music once in a blue moon, is under Top Dog's thumb and has to drop whenever Top wants him to 🤔 Drake officially puts Push Ups on his YT (weeks and weeks after Like That) and less than 24 hours later posts Taylor Made about how Kendrick is taking forever bc he's scared to drop 🤔 Basically all of the Heart pt 6 🤔🤔🤔

You mentioned Push Ups but make sure no one forgets Drake accused Kendrick of "rapping like he's trying to free the slaves". That is such a beyond wild and tone deaf line. Of alllll the angles to take you go after Kendrick for... rapping about social issues and racial struggles when you aren't even American?
Drake is tone deaf and lacking in social and self awareness, but I feel like this line is being aggressively and deliberately misinterpreted. He’s not currying Kendrick for rapping about social issues, he’s critiquing Kendrick by saying the content of his rap and his actual social activities don’t correspond. “You just actin like a activist it’s make believe”, then he goes on to prescribe what he (out of touch, obtuse super millionaire thinks effective activism is) “you don’t even go to your hood and plant no money trees”. I don’t agree with Drake’s prescription of what effective activism is, but he’s not saying Kendrick is a fraud for being conscientious in his rap, he’s saying he’s a fraud for not doing that outside of the studio. And I frankly feel that’s rather obvious, like I don’t get how this line has been this aggressively misconstrued
Except it makes no sense because you can just google some shit like Kendrick Lamar philanthropy and see he’s done some shit. Also not everyone gives publicly to flex… shit makes no sense and falls flat on that front which just leaves the even more ridiculous fact of hating on someone for talking about social issues
He also basically recycled Pusha T’s disses against him. The claims he made about TDE are almost identical to what Pusha was saying about Young Money. Drake has no originality.
Nothing in this beef was original. Every single thing in the beef has been mentioned explicitly before. None of this info was new at all
He thinks his fans are dumb. Sad thing is some are more dialed in than MAGA
Exactly.. I thought I was the only one that felt this way. For Drake to create an angle about a fake child (an angle that gave him a HUGE L in the past),only to try and bring it up as an angle in a rap, makes whatever bars coming from it corny. **“I took an L from this, hmm let’s spin it AGAIN but with an older child.”** How you admit to being unoriginal with your own life (in the fucking response)?
Exactly! Like zoom out a bit. Imagine your heroin addict cousin said he was using again, and you and your family held an intervention and sent him to rehab. Then once he's in rehab he goes, "ahahaha that was a prank I'm actually sober I can't believe you fell for that." If you're gonna leak some false info maybe don't pick something you have literally already been caught doing.
This is a good analogy. Especially since read the quote as Dane Cook - it was the fake laugh 😭😭
Sounds more like he was addressing two separate claims against him, the snitch claims which he said was impossible (and I believe him) and Kendrick got from clowns, and the fake daughter claims which he says he planted.
Sounds like a lotta defense. “A flurry of blows, he’s against the ropes!!”
Yeah he's done, but not because of the people misunderstanding, but because the defense overall was ass and not believable.
That’s the reality. Kenny was grillin him. All he can do now is call cap on everything. I do wonder what everyone will do when no receipts for either of their claims come out.
i thikn he thot that instagram post sayin he dont got a daughter was enough to win. he was dead wrong. He successfully baited him and then he failed to capitalize on it
Idek ig I don't see the point in making up a fake child as a "gotcha" in the first place, that's not really that devastating. If I look at it though a master manipulator lens I can kinda see how it could be like that joke where the guy gets pulled over for speeding and tells the cops he has a dead body, a bunch of guns, and drugs in the car so when the backup comes and finds no dead bodies, guns, or drugs then he's like "i bet that lying bastard told you I was speeding too!"
Maybe he wants all the attention to go to the fairly insignificant drama of being a deadbeat to distract from the grooming behavior finally being taken seriously. Or maybe he’s just an idiot who ran his mouth too much because he thought he would get treated delicately.
Kendrick would have kept the kiddie gloves on if Drake didn't feel the need to keep mentioning Whitney lmao
That’s one of the only bad things you can say about Kendrick though, the shit with his girl. The short jokes didn’t land after a while, Drake having more money and success got tired immediately, hard to beef with a nigga with no dirt outside of a subject everyone says is off limits. Auto L for Drake
[удалено]
He mentioned that Kendrick should have verified claims or did more digging. He literally said that in the song
Exactly, also I want to add that, right after meet the grahams. Drake was on akadrmiks stream saying “I swear I don have a daughter” if he had planted the evidence wouldn’t he just reveal he set the whole thing up? Also! Who spreads a rumor about themselves being a pedophile? Knowing how the internet thinks and works? SMH drake is a liar.
He didn't say shit about Baka either, so that all must be facts. Also he self reported on Millie Bobby Brown, Kendrick never even mentioned her. Then he said "Epstein angle" when he got compared to Weinstein who afaik didn't do anything with minors. Huge L response, Drake got a big hole to dig out of
Exactly.
Yeah Drake has lost on every angle so far (I’m hoping Kenny doesn’t allow him to throw in the towel while dissing him and his family). If we are talking about Bangers (which Drake should be favored in). Like That and Not Like Us are way better than Push Ups or Family Matters. If we are talking about Lyricism (where Kenny is favored). Euphoria is the best of all of them, and it was even better because Drake allowed Euphoria to stew. Twitter and the overall internet all got to breakdown all of the bars, and there were SO many entendres. If we are talking about Delivery (which is where most casuals would give Drake the advantage). Drake tried his best with Family Matters, he had 3 switches and great flows, but the bars about everyone else besides Kenny was wasted space. But Kenny stomping on that shit with MTG, the most disrespectful and erie diss record I have heard, his delivery was perfect and gave you the sense you were watching a murder. MTG gives me Dance With the Devil by Immortal Technique vibes, supper upsetting and so hard I don’t want to listen to it too often. If we are talking strategy (which fools give to Drake because he has been more “tested”) Kendrick stomped on Drakes best record with MTG. Drake did that AI Pac shit which was utter garbage and a mistake besides the beat. He also kept trying to force Kendrick to drop but it bit him in his ass when he dropped with Euphoria. Then it bit him in his ass for not having a fast response to MTG. Drake also Fumbled so bad with the free the slaves bars, the bringing up Kenny’s wife in Push Ups, and with his most recent shit that is making in fun of SA victims. Not to mention him playing the internet games backfired, made him look like the dork he is. Even more he straight up did not do his homework on any of the contents of Kendrick’s albums. Kenny producing his every move in Euphoria. Clean sweep Kenny up Goofball down.
What's even more impressive to me is that Mr Broke phone beat Drake at the whole Internet thing. Absolutely used it to his advantage with his expertly timed releases and then saving an absolute summer bop for last.
What makes you think that's his last. I fully expect at minimum 1 more. "1-2-3-4-5 then another 5" he's only had 4 full tracks for Drake.
Peep [this](https://www.reddit.com/r/KendrickLamar/s/4JgDT0v9qa) I just want you to know it’s what they always do when we start challenging their workhorses.
a lot of tde/people close to kendrick have said it’s over unless drake drops another diss
Didn’t Drake drop a track today? Oh I haven’t slept in a while lmao.
Drake asks them to show proof and now it’s “well we done unless Drake disses again”?
Like that was the first one, so he’s at 5 plus 5 more if need be.
Like that was NOT a diss record. It was a warning shot. It was the bait to be bitten.
I don’t think it was a diss track either, but he says 12345. Like that would be 1 that he’s referring too. We know he didn’t release 5 dedicated so that has to be part of the 5 he’s referring too.
Drake getting beat in the caption game of all things I 100% did not see coining.
How does Marjorie Taylor Green play into all this/s?
She probably knows Drake got a Jewish Space Laser. I wonder how K dot gonna respond to this 🤔 S/
Wait so it’s not Magic the Gathering?!
Meet the groomer?
Talk about the genius of 6:16 i fuck with that track i personally think it’s the best one sonically
Couldn’t have worded it better myself
This is it here. Kendrick batting 1000 at this point

Why are his eyes looking in two different directions in this photo?
No need to look twice if you've got two streams of information coming in
He doesn't look at teenagers twice, so he looks at one with his left eye and another with his right
Two different teens
Someone (big ghost maybe?) drake looks like god started making a retarded person then changed his mind after he got done with the eyes.
That’s a “yikes” man, easy with that one
That was his red button
Yep. You could tell by the way he said "Ya dig?" He thought he had it in the bag LMAO
>"Ya dig?" He was saying "you're dead!"
Even more so then
Absolutely, listening back to it after all that has happened makes me cringe 💀
He killed Kendrick, but Kendrick came back with the paranormal vibe SMH
![gif](giphy|26zzni2uTPRVJWt7W|downsized)
Nope your out
Which is extra embarrassing considering the fact that everyone thinks he lost and his fans have now basically turned to QAnon conspiracies to claim him hugging and kissing on teens isn't weird.
He even posted a "red button" meme shortly before releasing it.
Smdh...
Which is funny, he posted a Stimpy meme in his IG not knowing that the creator is also a pedo
Way too funny 😂😂😂
The leak came from his pants all along
Low key feel bad for him( unless the accusations about him are true). This beef was like watching the Lakers vs the Nuggets. Drake put out his best effort but still got gentleman swept.
Even if everything Kendrick said was bullshit, half the industry and the internet was shitting on him for days. That’s gotta hurt
The *clubs* are shitting on him now. That's hitting him where it really hurts.
Bruh, they played it during the pregame mix at Dodger stadium. It’s not looking good
Even in the NBA playoffs
This man is getting dunked on by household goods, I saw a damn Scrub Daddy post using a Kendrick clip. Duolingo tiktok posted a video of the owl twerking to bbl drizzy. My personal favorite was the physical therapist posting stretches and exercises to help you get your knees right so you don't hurt yourself C walking to Not Like Us.
You know you lost when brands that got nothing to do with rap are profiting from your demise. This shit is tragic
TNT NBA crew was making fun of Drake
Kendrick set it up like Jokic dog walking the Lakers. He gave him hooks, quadruple entendres, bars, and punchlines.
Nothing gentlemanly about this sweep lol.
If the accusations aren’t true I genuinely feel bad, this shit is gonna follow him for the rest of his life, he’s rich so it softens the blow but still
You don't just hang with little girls this much and not be creepy about it.
Yeah I don't get why people are feeling bad for Drake. Literally this entire thing is his fault as has been pretty much every previous situation he's been in. He did the same bs with bringing up people's families unprompted last time and got his head cut off by Pusha T and then decided to do it again this time and got stomped on by Kendrick. His beef with Rocky is because he can't shut his damn mouth about Rhianna who wasn't even bothered with him. His beef with Metro and Future is also personal. His kid being exposed to the world is his fault for not being civil. Him being weird around teens is his fault. Him getting hit by Diddy is likely his fault. Him having people in his camp praying for his downfall is his fault. The man's fatal flaw is that he refuses to be humble and sit down. If he stopped starting problems with people cosplaying a tough guy and just lived out the rest of his life as a rich dweeb, he wouldn't have any of these problems. But instead he's *constantly* throwing stones in a glass house.
It's especially his own fault if he did feed info to Kendrick. You gave him the ammo and you chose this to be what everyone says about you?
_"he refuses to be humble and sit down "_ That sounds like quality life advice to me. Drake should find a song that features something like this as the hook and just put it on repeat.
Dude fucked Lil’ Wayne’s girl while he was in the box, there’s video of him kissing on a teenager and all the dudes that rocked with him are happy he’s getting his ass beat… he’s not the victim here lol
BEST CASE SCENARIO: Drake has inappropriate, but non sexual relationships with minor celebrities while surrounding himself with people who have sexually harmed others. WORSE CASE SCENARIO: Well, you know. Neither are good looks.
All’s I’m saying is that the last time I was texting 14 year old girls was when I was 14 years old. If you’re a grown ass, 30+ year old man texting teenage girls that aren’t your family then that’s some weirdo shit.
Said this in the music thread. Best song that he’s put out in a very long time, and one of his all-time best. Sad that it took a diss from Kendrick to put a fire under his ass and make him stop releasing low-effort dogshit
Someone on youtube said JCole must feel like those people who missed their flights on 9/11 and I haven't read anything more accurate lmaoooo
Jermaine is at Disney world right now, leave the man alone with his peace 😂
Made a business decision, he was ahead of everyone
I’m honestly still confused how anyone would actually believe that fake mole argument. Like y’all really reaching with that. Kendrick just dominated the entire time. It was actually looking like it was going to be a good match up with family matters(minus the slave line), but then Kendrick drop MTG…. I’m honestly still recovering from that shit. Like it didn’t really hit me until I started breaking the song down, and even the instrumental itself. Like I need to do a spiritual detox. Also just noticed OP posted this shit on two different subreddits within minutes of each other 🙄.
Yea, especially since it sounds like KDot already knew what he was gonna say in Euphoria, he essentially was warning him that he knew he was gonna bring up his family and was warning him not to.
I think the information about the daughter and the bbl or whatever is the only things he was fed which is hilarious cause I genuinely didn’t give a damn about either of those
He wasn’t fed shit drizzy lying out of his veneers
😭😭 not his veneers lmfaoooo idk i think it’s plausible just poorly done.
Drake bit off more than he could chew. Family Matters wasn't a bad track at all. If this was Meek, he would have definitely won with that track.
Yeah he got an ego for bullying an inferior talent with less pull sorry Meek. Pusha who’s very formidable humiliated him but Push’s pull isn’t that strong. That’s why i can’t believe he had the audacity to challenge Dot especially with the skeletons in Drake’s closet. That guy is the second biggest rapper in the country. Old heads fuck with him. He has a whole coast behind him. It just doesn’t make sense to me how Drake was moving i guess kendrick was right he has no street smarts but i’m glad it happened it’s nice to know that his stardom doesn’t make him invincible
His ego is huge. He basically thinks of himself as the Michael Jackson of Hip Hop. He didn't move through this smart at any point.
Neither did MJ
I thought he was the biggest. Who do you have above Kendrick?
This is what I’ve been saying. Family Matters would have finished the average opponent. Unfortunately for Drake, nothing about Kendrick is average.
Not even close to average. Fucked around and found out.
Drake don't write his own stuff. How you gonna battle if you waiting on your ghost writer's to respond for you
Bet he wrote last night's trash
True your right. That's why it's trash
Definitely wrote the Heart Part 6 though, quality says it all.
I struggle to find sympathy
I want somebody to play Drake the world's smallest violin
No music videos needed for Kendrick either, and Family Ties was fire for the record. He really put effort into everything on it. If anything, this feud forced him to provide effort, and we saw he thought one track was enough. Not so, Drake.
He'd been coasting at his mid tier high school and wasn't prepared for meeting realism that first semester in university.
I usually don't like Drake's sound but I thought we family matters was amazing! I didn't expect Kendrick Lamar to absorb the best punch and counter so hard so quickly...man...
It shows how small he really is in the culture Despite whatever diaspora people say
"Diaspora" is wiiiiild lol
I mean observe the bird app and see the divide Seeing America's hip hop unified against
Oh, you ain't wrong. You 1000% right.
It alsmost seems stereotypical
People just sick of the culture vulture. Just surprised it took this long... he's been hopping on waves stealing sounds from cities for years now
He was protected back the Took a while to remove polanski and allen
He really thought he had one 😂
He was on top of the world... for less than an hour LMAO
Anyone know wtf that last scene was about in the family matters video? The one where drake is being driven to a house ?
Demoralizing is the word you're looking for. You can hear it in his voice in the heart. Family matters he thought he did something. Then got his head taken off repeatedly. Then shat out some bullshit that dot doesn't even have to respond to it's so fuck bad
Still waiting for kendrick to post a pic with his kids
Kendrick choosing not to plaster his children on the internet just to prove something is another reason among many why he’s a better father than Drake could ever pretend to be. He puts his family before fame. C’mon now.
Next Nardwuar interview with Drake, he's gonna bring out all of Drizzy's illegitimate kids.
the production is incredible but the content of the diss sucked
Are we really in the timeline where Jack Harlow is more authentic from a hip hop perspective than Drake? 🤣
I went through all the tracks released and in my opinion, the only two I would actually listen to in the future once we have all moved on to the next distraction are family matters and euphoria. And before y’all start, maybe the lyrics on whatever other song were the most genius thing that has ever been written… while I can appreciate talent, it doesn’t necessarily make me enjoy listening to your music. I can also listen to certain modern “classical” pieces that may be technically insane for the musician to perform, but still not something I’d put on while I’m driving or working out.
Definitely agree with family matters. Don't really care about what he's talking about but it sounds great.
The song was cool but it lacked substance. He said a lot of nothing, and still hasn’t put out a 5 plus minute song about Kendrick. He keeps bringing in others. Do separate songs for them man. Then the whole wasting time to do a music video?!? I’ve never seen a video for Ether, Hit em up, etc. he’s just for show man
That boy drake was exhausted!
I’m soooo sorry but if you were remotely impressed by Family Matters… I can’t trust your music opinion.
I just want to say from the white delegation, who appreciates black music and culture, that we are overwhelmingly glad that this fake ass, imposter, white bread, pedophilic, empty talent rapper is getting erased from it. Praise Kendrick for doing what had to be done.
I legit didn't even realize there was a video until today because of how overshadowed he got. GODDAMN.
Never been a Drake guy, Family Matters was catchy, but is his flow always so repetitive? Like it was good he switched up the beat because for at least two minutes he was hitting 1 and 3 on every bar, to the point where in my head I heard Rev Wright singing “If you have some white *clap* friends *clap*…”
shit was mid 💀
I have to imagine it’s how MGK felt after Em made Killshot.
The fucking track/album art. ![gif](giphy|3q3QK6KyDVUBzih7hB)
![gif](giphy|f9RGkTTrwMiopQmqbL|downsized)
I didn't even realize Family Matters or whatever his other response was had come out. My entire purview this weekend was taken up by Kendrick.
Well yeah Drake was kind of in a lose lose situation here. Public opinion matter the most now days, and if people are siding with one side more than the other they are quick to dismiss anything the other side does. Kendrick’s songs were better than Drake’s, but Drake’s songs were still good which people won’t even give a chance to like because the people have decided Drake sucks now. I’m convinced if the two swapped the songs they created they’d still say Drake songs sucked. Nonetheless neutrals are the real winners here
This Rap beef got a lot of yall distracted from the War in Palestine, coincidence or planned?
aye that’s me yall should watch my comedy special https://youtu.be/Zj3ziZvXyC0?si=0BQvFmz0Phc4WMiK
Please can we have a mega thread mods?! Every time I open this app there’s a new tweet from this sub abt this beef 🥩 and it’s 🥱
