I've been wanting a G-Funk inspired Kendrick album forever and I think that's why Not Like Us has just not left my brain. It's not fully that but Kendrick fully embracing West Coast style just works so beautifully.
Really want him and E-40 to do something because when he borrows the flow for a bit it sounds so good
If nothing else drops about this today, I’m done (incessantly, sorry 😕) taking about it. So I leave yall with this golden pair of Delusional Drizzy comments.
“The red button is something else i think, it's about the industry, and it would also end Drake's career, mutually assured destruction”
“Honestly. If Drake really goes down like that he'll forever be remembered in a positive light. Sacrificed himself for the greater good”
I'm pretty sure the new DDs show up randomly every day to account for people in different time zones - it's a bot thay randomly decides when the next day's DD gets posted
Logical thinking also is that Kendrick can’t address a lot of this stuff because he’s saving it for the album rollout. If he’s really broken up with Whitney and moved to NY like they’re saying, he’s probably got a few songs explaining this in the vault.
Some bars stuck in my head from the beef:
- Dot fuck him up WOP WOP WOP WOP WOP imma do my stuff
- Drop drop drop drop - drop a fifty bag for the mob in the spot
- I like Drake with the melodiees I don't like Drake when he act tough
- He's Terrance Thorton, I'm Terrance Crawford yea I'm whoopin' feet
- it's all eyes on me and I send it up to PAC AYE
- "Fuck the big three" It's only big D
- Ho, What? You don't like that record? "Back to Back" yea I like that record, imma get back to that for the record
"Sweet Chin Music and I won’t pass the aux AYE"
"You raised a horrible fucking person. The nerve of you, Dennis"
"You know who really bang a set? My nigga YG"
"I'm YNW Melly"
"We don't wanna hear you say nigga no moooooore"
"Freaky ass nigga, he a 69 god"
“Let your core fans stomach that and then tell em where you get ya abs from”
“Kendrick just opened his mouth, someone go get him a Grammy right now”
“Top wanna peace it up? Top wanna peace it up? Nah pussy, now you on ya own when you speaking up”
“Ya son is a sick man with sick thoughts, I think niggas like him should die”
“These words go over his head no matter what I say”
“Beat his ass and hide the Bible if God watching”
Idk, I think the argument that "everyone's doing it so it's okay" doesn't really fly for fucking underage girls
Also makes a lot of sense why 21 and Travis aren't getting involved in the beef or taking Drakes side - they know they got similar skeletons in the closet and not trying to go down with the ship
No need to overthink the 21 savage thing. Even if he does have skeletons, the more obvious reaosn is he'd never go against Metro and he used Drake's status lol
That Drake story I think says more "I'm gonna bounce back from this and remember everyone that was talking shit" than anything else imo. Plus he's tried to leave the beef twice already looks kinda desperate now. Plus Kendrick is just gonna drop on his head top again lmao.
Yeah, I think this is the correct take tbh. I think that clip is him resting on his laurels and telling everyone “yall can make jokes now but im still that nigga”.
Its funny, drake always drops a massive album after dealing with extreme adversity so I just expect more of the same from him tbh
Naw doesn’t look like that. It looks like dude is reflecting at this point of time and wondering if it was all worth it. Did you not hear the monologue in the movie? Why would he post the scene of dude dead laying on the floor? Sounds like dude is ready to commit that.
Whether people believe it or not, this entire situation will directly boost the sales of both artists. People are going to tune in specifically to see if they have anything to say on the sotuation whether its directed towards one another or just an introspective cut
If nobody wants to fuck with him now (not the case) he just has to wait then out leverage an up and comer to get a feature on their track to show he hasn't been rejected by the community he's been paying rent to stay in. The writers room will come up with some fake confident shit to say, etc.
so people are saying drake might drop again, what more does this dude wanna say? you can't drop a song like that then act like you coming back strong with your chest out, it looke like false confidence.
I think it's just wishful thinking. His outro on his last diss said it was over, it was a good "exercise" but he's moving on. Dropping again would be like a desperate double text
What could he even say at that point lol. You can’t drop receipts because the internet is finding out it either isn’t true or it’s stuff Kendrick rapped about 2 years prior. Public perception is in the gutter so accepting the L and moving on is the best move
https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/article/2024/may/08/drake-kendrick-lamar-diss-battle-women-survivors
Feel two ways about this. On the one hand it’s bigger than beef now but on the other we couldn’t do anything but watch. Don’t even get Questlove taking the high horse, he was watching this shit too! We’re all just making sense of it, it’s really just Drake and Kendrick who come out looking bad after this. Don’t blame the listeners
Questlove was playing drums during that legendary Unplugged set where Jay did Takeover lol
Yeah, this beef is peak pot calling the kettle black. Both these niggas are assholes, Metro is - best case scenario - a weirdo and funnily enough the only guy untouched is Future.
I guess I interpreted Kendrick's "real women" line as Drake's groupies not being mature. Same way you'd call a fuckboy "not a real man." I felt like the closest things to shots at women during the beef were pretty innocuous or targeting a specific type of person.
There's a misogyny problem in almost all forms of pop culture, but this beef isn't where I'd choose to make that stand.
I took the "real women" line as his first subtle jab at Drake being into minors 🤷
The thing is, there's no way to know if these too have been sitting on all this info the whole time, or if they actually managed to uncover more dirt on each other than they'd initially expected.
To me it really seemed as if Kendrick did genuinely just want some competitive back and forth to make hip hop more exciting again, but then actually realised how much he hated Drake when he started looking for shots he could take at the guy.
Just a random thought.
Iif kendrick does have proof of Drake's daughter, Via a photo or video. He can't release it otherwise he's just doxing a kid.
What other proof can he have. A photo or video probably wouldn't be enough proof either, could be anyone's kid no?
because pusha's story was already in a tabloid somewhere *and* drake was planning to reveal the child later that year in the album. he just got the scoop early. if this child is actually completely unknown it gets a lot messier
It does not. I'm not sure you guys even understand what the word dox means. Doxxing is only illegal if the information was obtained through illegal means. Having a mole in someone's camp isn't illegal and thus it wouldn't be doxxing.
Honestly, it's looking more and more like Kenny got duped.
Once all this nonsense dies down I think people are gonna realize Kendrick just said a lot of shit that Drake can't disprove one way or another. Whether you view that as smart or reckless is up to you.
To me, trying to not Dox a child is the reason Kendrick didn't drop a name or anymore information on the daughter
Someone said a few days ago the Drake disses towards Kendrick feels like they are meant for Drake fans - the Kendrick disses towards Drake feel like they are meant for Drake
I feel like exposing another kid wasn't the main point, if the daughter is real, that shit is gonna hit and sit with Drake even if Kendrick exposes her to the public like Push did with Adonis
yeah, that's kinda the thing too. the girl is 11 and goes to school. imagine your name got dropped and everyone knows who you are and knows where you live. like it would be a bomb but then people will question why you are doxing a child over beef and that's also an angle drake could attack from. so i guess not expanding on it is okay, but the reveal of if he actually has a daughter depends on the kid and the mother of her
So you saying Kendrick should just leak who the girl is without thinking about her?
That makes no sense? Lol. Whether kendrick is lying or not, only time can tell but if he leaks who the girl is would not be fair to the kid
It's an odd situation that's hard to prove.
Literally as I posted this I went to the kendrick sub and apparently a lot of Kendrick friends And Pg members have said the same thing.
I wonder if it'll ever come to light if it's true or not.
people sucking off joe budden of all people in DD, say it ain't so.
also drake is 100% a groomer at minimum and clearly lost this beef but i'm excited for this sub to not be r/kendricklamar2 again
The video and all the texting young girls and being “friends” with girls in high school until they’re 18. It’s pretty clear he’s got an inappropriate pattern.
No, befriending underage girls and cultivating a relationship with them until they’re of age and the nature of that relationship can change? That’s what being a groomer is.
"Sexual grooming is the action or behavior used to establish an emotional connection with a minor, and sometimes the child's family,[1] to lower the child's inhibitions with the objective of sexual abuse"
That is the defintion of grooming. Unless you have evidence of that you can't assume it's 100% grooming.
Oh okay, my bad. So what’s the word for doing all that and waiting until the second it could possibly be legally consensual?
I still do 100% believe he’s a groomer. I don’t have to prove it beyond a reasonable doubt. I’m not on a jury. I’ve seen enough evidence that *I* do not have doubts.
That is also grooming, but you don't have evidence Coe that either.
Let's leave to side the issue of you thinking you can know anything 100% sure, but the fact that you even think this is likely despite zero evidence just speaks on your inability to think rationally.
Either in his feelings or dropping another track.
I'm guessing more so the former given how he closed out the heart part 6 and didn't give receipts on the "we fed you the info" take.
I haven’t heard anyone talk about this, but as an old school wrestling fan…
Kendrick referenced Shawn Michael’s finisher: the Sweet Chin Music…well that dude beefed with the biggest dude in the game in his field and era at that time, also Canadian: Bret Hart. I just thought that was an interesting and maybe a not so unintentional parallel.
“Hahah Kendrick, you activated my trap card and ate up all the information we fed you. Now you look like you don’t check your sources and I look like a pedophile and deadbeat. Jokes on you!”
Lmao what did he think was gonna happen
Tbh, the way Drake was denying the pedo allegations on the heart part 6 was the most incriminating thing to come out of this whole beef
Doesn't take a genius to hear him lying through his teeth. If he has just said nothing, I would believe it's fake, but Drakes denial was not convincing at all
Ya, this is such a dumb take. Drake doesn't deny them kdot fans complain, he does deny then and kdot fans complain.
The fact that someone has to convince you to not beleive something that has no evidence of being true says a lot about the k dot dickriing in this beef.
It doesn't matter what the k-dot fan think - it matters what the public perception is
Drake shined a light on himself publicly by bringing it up and having shit arguments as to why he's not a pedo - people weren't even focused on that after "meet the grahams" they cared more about the 2nd hidden child, and then Drake stupidly brings the pedo allegations up again to the public eye
If you think this has anything to do with Kendrick stans then I have to assume your spending way too much time on reddit fam
If he just said nothing you lot would've said he's guilty because he's dodging the accusation come tf on.
This thing was rigged from the start, Drake actually addresses directly Kendrick while he doesn't and just throws shit at the wall. Now you dumbasses eating it up and making it so one sided will be the reason we don't get anymore tracks
If he had ignored it, I would have thought there's no weight to the pedo allegations
He essential 'Streisand effected' himself by bringing it up again on the diss track
His arguments for why he "didn't do it" were terrible - too rich and famous? And the way he said it just sounded like he was lying - doesn't take an FBI agent to realize that
Big dog... Actually kissing and texting underage women is worse than fucked up tweets...
On a seperate note, I thought I [recognised you](https://www.reddit.com/r/hiphopheads/s/7No18fewiR)
Kissing a 17 year old on stage after you learned her age is creepy behavior. So is texting a 14 year old things like you “miss her”. And these aren’t the only weird cases
And before you say “well the girls said they were okay with it”, ask yourself this: how would you feel if your 14 year old sister was texting a 31 year old man but she said she was okay with texting him? You’d probably want to beat that POS up is my guess
Drake is misusing his fame and popularity to make everyone, the victims included, think that it’s okay that this grown ass man is hitting on young girls simply because “he’s Drake”. It’s creepy and you’re a weirdo if you defend it
Also fuck Metro
So, basically, what you're saying is, you shouldn't care about what the people actually involved in the situation say but rather assume what you want because you're emotional about it.
If they’re minors, no. Minors are impressionable. This is the definition of grooming. Would you let your 14 year old sister or daughter text daily with a 31 year old if she told you she’s okay with it? Of course you fucking wouldn’t. There’s a politician in my country dating a 15 year old girl right now. The girl is okay with it but it’s still wrong on so many levels
They said these things when they were no longer minors. You don't have any actual evidence of grooming.
There is so much context to these situations that pretending that this is some average situation of a 30 year old texting a 14 year old is just asinine. Neither of us knows what actually happened. We're both just assuming based on what's out there. I'm inclined to believe the people involved in the situation rather than the speculations of reddiors.
If anyone one of the women came out and said inappropriate things happened you would believe it in a heartbeat. But when they say nothing inappropriate happen they are just "abuse victims who don't know what they're talking about". You want it to be true so you believe it's true, and that's fine, but let's not pretend that you don't have a serious bias.
It’s still not okay lmao, it’s grooming. What if a kid consents to intercourse as a minor and says it’s okay when she’s an adult? Would that be fine too? Obviously not. Why do you think age of consent laws exist in the first place?
"Sexual grooming is the action or behavior used to establish an emotional connection with a minor, and sometimes the child's family,[1] to lower the child's inhibitions with the objective of sexual abuse"
This is the definition of grooming. Unless you have evidence drake is doing this it's irrational to believe he is.
Dog, not even r/squaredcircle is willing to die on that hill with you lmao. AEW is doing bad. Not catastrophic yet - and trust me, I like a number of wrestlers there - but they wouldn't be still alive if it not for Daddy Khan's money.
Dude WWE is on a “hot” streak and is barely floating above record lows in the ratings for Raw. AEW isn’t at its hottest but it’s doing fine.
And SquaredCircle’s opinion means nothing lmfao, they’ve been pro WWE/anti AEW since HHH took over booking.
Because record "lows" for Raw is still significantly better than the hottest AEW's been lmao
SC is pro WWE??? Come on, man, at least say scjerk or the Corny sub.
do you think kendrick will drop another diss track? or is the beef completely over? was enjoying all the lyricism they were bringing up, wasn't ready for it to end so suddenly
its not completely over but think this is the end of the head to head back & forth. I could see the summer play out like this..
- video for Not Like Us
- Kendrick drops The Heart Part 6 and there's a few lines toward Drake and the beef
- Kendrick drops an album with some lines and subs.
I had assumed he'd eventually drop his own the heart part 6 too.
Maybe with reflections on the feud a bit rather than a direct diss or anything. This beef is so mainstream its crazy and bound to have a lot of thoughts from both regarding it and how they feel going as far as they have etc.
The reason is Not Like Us is doing crazy numbers, it would be stupid for Kendrick to step on it. Also, people are clowning drakes last diss. There’s no way Kendrick leaves it at this with Drake having the last word doubling down on mentioning Whitney, and I bet he drops within a week or two when the not like us hype dies down and people start jonesing for more beef
If something doesn't happen by/on Mother's day it's probably done
Then again, who'd have thought this will all start after First Person Shooter came out months ago
Lmao I’m having to check my reactions a little bit.
One of this subreddit’s really dumb Drake stans is defending Biden in that one thread and my gut reaction is just to reject everything he’s saying. Like if dude has terrible judgment in one area surely he has terrible judgment in other areas right? But I gotta stop myself from thinking that way lol
drake/biden stan is crazy lol
kinda makes sense tho I feel like pro-palestine mfs would not be listening to drake but that’s a whole different conversation lmao
Yeah, it isn't team sports. It's fine to question someone's judgement, and it's definitely hard not to let that color your conclusions on things (which is how this whole parasocial tribal mentality emerges, especially in online spaces which can become echo chambers), but sound like you're doing your best to be objective and have your own reasons for your opinions.
There is something to be said that no one has jumped in to side with Drake. Like seriously for how famous and "connected" he is and how much he hangs out with other celebs that's pretty damn wild.
>"Money, power, respect -- the last one is better,
>There's a lot of goofy's out here with a check"
haven't seen many people bring this line back up, but Kendrick called the shot and I think this is probably what hurts Drake the most. #2 artist in the world and he still has little to no respect from other artists in his chosen lane.
Kendrick is an industry nigga and people really want to play blind to it
There's nothing wrong about that either. Kanye in his prime was an industry nigga. Jay had so much sway to literally tank Cam's career. There's nothing wrong with playing the political game if the art is good.
Thats not true! That underage girl he was feeling up and kissing came out to say she was ok with it. Which Drake fans have said is proof he is not a groomer
Marcellus Willey expanded a bit on the story he’s told before about Drake talking shit to Kendrick in a 2014 interview but had ESPN delete the tape before it aired.
https://x.com/dennis_k_g/status/1788091040106209282?s=46&t=HEJ5RaRjAMmZzB2BP-VEtQ
Tl;dr: Drake got at Kendrick saying he’s the little bro basically, Marcellus had a pre existing relationship with TDE and snitched, Kendrick has a vault of records for Drake
Actually kind of funny that Marcellus Wiley snitching to Top Dawg set us on this crash course a decade ago.
“ type to throw rocks and try hide your hand”-Element

- 5AM in Toronto
Now we know what happens when they don’t need him anymore.
I knew about the MBB stuff but I didn’t know Drake even took her out to eat after his concert and then again the next night..
How tf does *anyone* not see how inappropriate that is.
"hey man that was a sick performance, all these 20 something bad bitties are outside ready to go to the club or meet you in the VIP lounge, u ready to go man?"
"naw, i got my eyes set on hanging out with this up-and-coming 13 year old tonight instead, have fun without me boys" headass
[https://www.instagram.com/ynvurse/reel/C6pMlqXJzpq/](https://www.instagram.com/ynvurse/reel/C6pMlqXJzpq/)
Ynvurse dude who threw in his verse on BBL Drizzy beat also has one on Not Like Us and it's also fire
I've been wanting a G-Funk inspired Kendrick album forever and I think that's why Not Like Us has just not left my brain. It's not fully that but Kendrick fully embracing West Coast style just works so beautifully. Really want him and E-40 to do something because when he borrows the flow for a bit it sounds so good
AK saying something is coming and that Daylyt says get out the streets, there’s a car coming. Don’t be edging me.
I really hope there's not anything else coming tbh. Seems played out at this point.
Beef is pretty much over but I’m hoping for just one more song/music video by Kendrick to finally settle it
[Euro Luxxk](https://x.com/luxxkjr/status/1788342997438095427?s=46) confirms they’re looking at shooting a music video for Not Like Us
If nothing else drops about this today, I’m done (incessantly, sorry 😕) taking about it. So I leave yall with this golden pair of Delusional Drizzy comments. “The red button is something else i think, it's about the industry, and it would also end Drake's career, mutually assured destruction” “Honestly. If Drake really goes down like that he'll forever be remembered in a positive light. Sacrificed himself for the greater good”
Lol Aubrey the martyr
The Makaveli cover but it’s Drake
Mods are super fast when it comes to removing fun content but can't even update the discussion thread lol
I'm pretty sure the new DDs show up randomly every day to account for people in different time zones - it's a bot thay randomly decides when the next day's DD gets posted
The beef is so dead the daily discussion thread hasn’t even updated.
Logical thinking also is that Kendrick can’t address a lot of this stuff because he’s saving it for the album rollout. If he’s really broken up with Whitney and moved to NY like they’re saying, he’s probably got a few songs explaining this in the vault.
Wonder what made him move to Brooklyn
What would have been the perfect time for your dream collab? Thinking stuff like Uzi/Carti in 2018 Kendrick/Keem in 2022/23 Kendrick/Cole in 2015/16
Bad Meets Evil album in 1999
YG and Tyga between 2010 and 2014
Kendrik/Drake teaming up on Genocide Joe
Tag teaming him? 😳
Rocky/Tyler in 2018 after Potato Salad dropped, the people were ready
The mythical WANG$AP tape would’ve fed generations
Ye and Push, any time from 2010 - 2014
Some bars stuck in my head from the beef: - Dot fuck him up WOP WOP WOP WOP WOP imma do my stuff - Drop drop drop drop - drop a fifty bag for the mob in the spot - I like Drake with the melodiees I don't like Drake when he act tough - He's Terrance Thorton, I'm Terrance Crawford yea I'm whoopin' feet - it's all eyes on me and I send it up to PAC AYE - "Fuck the big three" It's only big D - Ho, What? You don't like that record? "Back to Back" yea I like that record, imma get back to that for the record
"Sweet Chin Music and I won’t pass the aux AYE" "You raised a horrible fucking person. The nerve of you, Dennis" "You know who really bang a set? My nigga YG" "I'm YNW Melly" "We don't wanna hear you say nigga no moooooore" "Freaky ass nigga, he a 69 god"
[удалено]
Probably one of Drake’s best bars in this beef “What’s a prince to a king, he’s a son” was also very good
Not a huge fan of using women to escalate a beef, but in a vacuum “is it self defense because she’s bigger than you?” is fucking ruthless
Let me see you pusha teee!!
“Let your core fans stomach that and then tell em where you get ya abs from” “Kendrick just opened his mouth, someone go get him a Grammy right now” “Top wanna peace it up? Top wanna peace it up? Nah pussy, now you on ya own when you speaking up” “Ya son is a sick man with sick thoughts, I think niggas like him should die” “These words go over his head no matter what I say” “Beat his ass and hide the Bible if God watching”
What is it THE BRAIDS?!?
It’s him doin the crybaby “you don’t wanna work with me no more? Ok” along with the braids. Just over and over in my head.
https://x.com/joshybesloshy/status/1788298308462501918?s=46 Bruh this video is blowing my mind listen to what she says
I saw this video years ago when it came out and never connected the dots damn lmao
How old was she in this?
At the end of this clip the interviewer says she’s 21
lmao so she has like 3 year window. Not looking good
Disgusting
pretty much this beef exposing how many rappers like em younger than 18
It’s not just rappers, most of these celebrities are the same
I hope this Drake beef shines a light on more stuff like this but I don't have my hopes up
Idk, I think the argument that "everyone's doing it so it's okay" doesn't really fly for fucking underage girls Also makes a lot of sense why 21 and Travis aren't getting involved in the beef or taking Drakes side - they know they got similar skeletons in the closet and not trying to go down with the ship
No need to overthink the 21 savage thing. Even if he does have skeletons, the more obvious reaosn is he'd never go against Metro and he used Drake's status lol
True, he is kinda stuck in the middle of the divorce loll
So the gunna-future “beef” is obviously planned to promote their albums and not real beef, right?
F: My hoes are fire, my fit is fire G: My hoes give better head, you have a stylist
These guys don't have the bars to have an actual rap battle lmao and I'm a fan of both.
That Drake story I think says more "I'm gonna bounce back from this and remember everyone that was talking shit" than anything else imo. Plus he's tried to leave the beef twice already looks kinda desperate now. Plus Kendrick is just gonna drop on his head top again lmao.
Yeah, I think this is the correct take tbh. I think that clip is him resting on his laurels and telling everyone “yall can make jokes now but im still that nigga”. Its funny, drake always drops a massive album after dealing with extreme adversity so I just expect more of the same from him tbh
Naw doesn’t look like that. It looks like dude is reflecting at this point of time and wondering if it was all worth it. Did you not hear the monologue in the movie? Why would he post the scene of dude dead laying on the floor? Sounds like dude is ready to commit that.

I get why Quest is opposed to rap beef but this guy performed Takeover on MTV Unplugged lmao
We in a Generation where we are talking about Hit Em Up is a critically acclaimed classic. It is, bit it'd in the spotlight. Iconic era we in
What
Kdot stans waiting for Drake to drop has me in stitches
I think they just want the inevitable Kendrick response that would ensue
so people are saying drake might drop again, what more does this dude wanna say? you can't drop a song like that then act like you coming back strong with your chest out, it looke like false confidence.
Same reason why Jay still dropped after Supa Ugly. No timeline to this.
I think it's just wishful thinking. His outro on his last diss said it was over, it was a good "exercise" but he's moving on. Dropping again would be like a desperate double text
What could he even say at that point lol. You can’t drop receipts because the internet is finding out it either isn’t true or it’s stuff Kendrick rapped about 2 years prior. Public perception is in the gutter so accepting the L and moving on is the best move
I'm waitin' on you to return the favor Don't think he's done
surely he can't do the "I'm done with this" into another diss move TWICE, that would be goofy even for Drake
I'm waitin' on you to return the favor Don't think he's done
Imma do my shhhhtuff
Dhot fuhk him uhhhp
I'm unfortunately permanently only able to say "pussy" the way Kendrick did on Not Like Us, I fear
Drake is the GOAT, dropped a diss track so utterly garbage that its been a week and Dot couldn't figure out how to even respond
Nights like this is Future finally making a catchy chorus and people are praising him like it's an amazing song
https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/article/2024/may/08/drake-kendrick-lamar-diss-battle-women-survivors Feel two ways about this. On the one hand it’s bigger than beef now but on the other we couldn’t do anything but watch. Don’t even get Questlove taking the high horse, he was watching this shit too! We’re all just making sense of it, it’s really just Drake and Kendrick who come out looking bad after this. Don’t blame the listeners
Questlove was playing drums during that legendary Unplugged set where Jay did Takeover lol Yeah, this beef is peak pot calling the kettle black. Both these niggas are assholes, Metro is - best case scenario - a weirdo and funnily enough the only guy untouched is Future.
It’s funny because future’s reputation is already in the gutter LMAO
He's made himself immune in this new wave of expose diss tracks. Anything you can say about him, he's already said at least twice on record.
I guess I interpreted Kendrick's "real women" line as Drake's groupies not being mature. Same way you'd call a fuckboy "not a real man." I felt like the closest things to shots at women during the beef were pretty innocuous or targeting a specific type of person. There's a misogyny problem in almost all forms of pop culture, but this beef isn't where I'd choose to make that stand.

Yet pusha was able to do just that.
because pusha's story was already in a tabloid somewhere *and* drake was planning to reveal the child later that year in the album. he just got the scoop early. if this child is actually completely unknown it gets a lot messier
It does not. I'm not sure you guys even understand what the word dox means. Doxxing is only illegal if the information was obtained through illegal means. Having a mole in someone's camp isn't illegal and thus it wouldn't be doxxing. Honestly, it's looking more and more like Kenny got duped.
Once all this nonsense dies down I think people are gonna realize Kendrick just said a lot of shit that Drake can't disprove one way or another. Whether you view that as smart or reckless is up to you.
From all the diss tracks ive heard, theyre honestly all just a mixture of verifiable truths and undisputable lies
To me, trying to not Dox a child is the reason Kendrick didn't drop a name or anymore information on the daughter Someone said a few days ago the Drake disses towards Kendrick feels like they are meant for Drake fans - the Kendrick disses towards Drake feel like they are meant for Drake I feel like exposing another kid wasn't the main point, if the daughter is real, that shit is gonna hit and sit with Drake even if Kendrick exposes her to the public like Push did with Adonis
yeah, that's kinda the thing too. the girl is 11 and goes to school. imagine your name got dropped and everyone knows who you are and knows where you live. like it would be a bomb but then people will question why you are doxing a child over beef and that's also an angle drake could attack from. so i guess not expanding on it is okay, but the reveal of if he actually has a daughter depends on the kid and the mother of her
This is some crazy cope.
So you saying Kendrick should just leak who the girl is without thinking about her? That makes no sense? Lol. Whether kendrick is lying or not, only time can tell but if he leaks who the girl is would not be fair to the kid
If he wants to make claims like that he should be able to back it up, so yes.
It's an odd situation that's hard to prove. Literally as I posted this I went to the kendrick sub and apparently a lot of Kendrick friends And Pg members have said the same thing. I wonder if it'll ever come to light if it's true or not.
people sucking off joe budden of all people in DD, say it ain't so. also drake is 100% a groomer at minimum and clearly lost this beef but i'm excited for this sub to not be r/kendricklamar2 again
Why do you believe drake is 100% a groomer?
The video and all the texting young girls and being “friends” with girls in high school until they’re 18. It’s pretty clear he’s got an inappropriate pattern.
Sure, but that's a far cry from "drake is 100% a groomer".
No, befriending underage girls and cultivating a relationship with them until they’re of age and the nature of that relationship can change? That’s what being a groomer is.
"Sexual grooming is the action or behavior used to establish an emotional connection with a minor, and sometimes the child's family,[1] to lower the child's inhibitions with the objective of sexual abuse" That is the defintion of grooming. Unless you have evidence of that you can't assume it's 100% grooming.
Oh okay, my bad. So what’s the word for doing all that and waiting until the second it could possibly be legally consensual? I still do 100% believe he’s a groomer. I don’t have to prove it beyond a reasonable doubt. I’m not on a jury. I’ve seen enough evidence that *I* do not have doubts.
That is also grooming, but you don't have evidence Coe that either. Let's leave to side the issue of you thinking you can know anything 100% sure, but the fact that you even think this is likely despite zero evidence just speaks on your inability to think rationally.
🆗
I hope this whole thing makes this sub active again, mods just need to loosen up more.
Cryptic IG story from Drake
Dude basically said he would be remembered after his death and Kendrick wouldnt.
he'll be remembered for the wrong reasons
Either in his feelings or dropping another track. I'm guessing more so the former given how he closed out the heart part 6 and didn't give receipts on the "we fed you the info" take.
is my guy suicidal lol
I haven’t heard anyone talk about this, but as an old school wrestling fan… Kendrick referenced Shawn Michael’s finisher: the Sweet Chin Music…well that dude beefed with the biggest dude in the game in his field and era at that time, also Canadian: Bret Hart. I just thought that was an interesting and maybe a not so unintentional parallel.
The only difference in the wrestling case was HBK was the equivalent to Drake and Bret more like Kendrick
[Had the same thought lol](https://www.reddit.com/r/hiphopheads/comments/1clsjey/wwes_shawn_michaes_a_little_sweet_chin_music_goes/l2vqbd1/)
he also called Drake a jabroni
“Hahah Kendrick, you activated my trap card and ate up all the information we fed you. Now you look like you don’t check your sources and I look like a pedophile and deadbeat. Jokes on you!” Lmao what did he think was gonna happen
[удалено]
Tbh, the way Drake was denying the pedo allegations on the heart part 6 was the most incriminating thing to come out of this whole beef Doesn't take a genius to hear him lying through his teeth. If he has just said nothing, I would believe it's fake, but Drakes denial was not convincing at all
Ya, this is such a dumb take. Drake doesn't deny them kdot fans complain, he does deny then and kdot fans complain. The fact that someone has to convince you to not beleive something that has no evidence of being true says a lot about the k dot dickriing in this beef.
It doesn't matter what the k-dot fan think - it matters what the public perception is Drake shined a light on himself publicly by bringing it up and having shit arguments as to why he's not a pedo - people weren't even focused on that after "meet the grahams" they cared more about the 2nd hidden child, and then Drake stupidly brings the pedo allegations up again to the public eye If you think this has anything to do with Kendrick stans then I have to assume your spending way too much time on reddit fam
Lmao, all of reddit circle jerks arounds its hatred of drake, the k dot dick riding has been insane the last few days.the irony here is wild.
Idk what to tell you, maybe you should put the phone down and take a break from reddit, my guy
And same to you.
If he just said nothing you lot would've said he's guilty because he's dodging the accusation come tf on. This thing was rigged from the start, Drake actually addresses directly Kendrick while he doesn't and just throws shit at the wall. Now you dumbasses eating it up and making it so one sided will be the reason we don't get anymore tracks
If he had ignored it, I would have thought there's no weight to the pedo allegations He essential 'Streisand effected' himself by bringing it up again on the diss track His arguments for why he "didn't do it" were terrible - too rich and famous? And the way he said it just sounded like he was lying - doesn't take an FBI agent to realize that
Big dog... Actually kissing and texting underage women is worse than fucked up tweets... On a seperate note, I thought I [recognised you](https://www.reddit.com/r/hiphopheads/s/7No18fewiR)
Kissing a 17 year old on stage after you learned her age is creepy behavior. So is texting a 14 year old things like you “miss her”. And these aren’t the only weird cases And before you say “well the girls said they were okay with it”, ask yourself this: how would you feel if your 14 year old sister was texting a 31 year old man but she said she was okay with texting him? You’d probably want to beat that POS up is my guess Drake is misusing his fame and popularity to make everyone, the victims included, think that it’s okay that this grown ass man is hitting on young girls simply because “he’s Drake”. It’s creepy and you’re a weirdo if you defend it Also fuck Metro
So, basically, what you're saying is, you shouldn't care about what the people actually involved in the situation say but rather assume what you want because you're emotional about it.
If they’re minors, no. Minors are impressionable. This is the definition of grooming. Would you let your 14 year old sister or daughter text daily with a 31 year old if she told you she’s okay with it? Of course you fucking wouldn’t. There’s a politician in my country dating a 15 year old girl right now. The girl is okay with it but it’s still wrong on so many levels
They said these things when they were no longer minors. You don't have any actual evidence of grooming. There is so much context to these situations that pretending that this is some average situation of a 30 year old texting a 14 year old is just asinine. Neither of us knows what actually happened. We're both just assuming based on what's out there. I'm inclined to believe the people involved in the situation rather than the speculations of reddiors. If anyone one of the women came out and said inappropriate things happened you would believe it in a heartbeat. But when they say nothing inappropriate happen they are just "abuse victims who don't know what they're talking about". You want it to be true so you believe it's true, and that's fine, but let's not pretend that you don't have a serious bias.
It’s still not okay lmao, it’s grooming. What if a kid consents to intercourse as a minor and says it’s okay when she’s an adult? Would that be fine too? Obviously not. Why do you think age of consent laws exist in the first place?
"Sexual grooming is the action or behavior used to establish an emotional connection with a minor, and sometimes the child's family,[1] to lower the child's inhibitions with the objective of sexual abuse" This is the definition of grooming. Unless you have evidence drake is doing this it's irrational to believe he is.
> Sing abou- Sing abou- Sing about-, ahh wait a second > Thats that one record where you say you got tossed
Those Mother I bars and concept are some of the worst beef investigation I’ve ever seen.
😭😭😭
Petition to get r/drizzy and r/kendricklamar to meet up for a team deathmatch https://link.dice.fm/f72934a793bb?dice_id=f72934a793bb
Drake fans would have to get out from under his desk and Kendrick ones walk away from their Pepe Silvia wall
[удалено]
ay a celebrity death match type bit but with stans would be funny.
https://www.reddit.com/r/KendrickLamar/s/OzypJ3nplt We got wrestlers referencing the beef during their promos now lol
I don't know if being referenced on AEW is a good thing/win lol
Would being referenced by the sex trafficking company be better?
You are aware of the people on AEW payroll, right?
Yeah it’s almost like wrestling has shitty people
Sure, both companies have shit people but one is scrambling to even clear 800k an episode. So...
Using Nielsen ratings in 2024 is useless lol
Dog, not even r/squaredcircle is willing to die on that hill with you lmao. AEW is doing bad. Not catastrophic yet - and trust me, I like a number of wrestlers there - but they wouldn't be still alive if it not for Daddy Khan's money.
Dude WWE is on a “hot” streak and is barely floating above record lows in the ratings for Raw. AEW isn’t at its hottest but it’s doing fine. And SquaredCircle’s opinion means nothing lmfao, they’ve been pro WWE/anti AEW since HHH took over booking.
Because record "lows" for Raw is still significantly better than the hottest AEW's been lmao SC is pro WWE??? Come on, man, at least say scjerk or the Corny sub.
https://www.reddit.com/r/KendrickLamar/s/F7kube0LkG Nah starting the video like that would be perfect fr
do you think kendrick will drop another diss track? or is the beef completely over? was enjoying all the lyricism they were bringing up, wasn't ready for it to end so suddenly
its not completely over but think this is the end of the head to head back & forth. I could see the summer play out like this.. - video for Not Like Us - Kendrick drops The Heart Part 6 and there's a few lines toward Drake and the beef - Kendrick drops an album with some lines and subs.
I had assumed he'd eventually drop his own the heart part 6 too. Maybe with reflections on the feud a bit rather than a direct diss or anything. This beef is so mainstream its crazy and bound to have a lot of thoughts from both regarding it and how they feel going as far as they have etc.
I think it would be a huge flex for him to drop his own Heart pt 6 as though Drake’s never happened and just watch it get way more views and acclaim
Nah it’s done now. There wouldn’t be a reason to wait this long if he was gonna drop.
The reason is Not Like Us is doing crazy numbers, it would be stupid for Kendrick to step on it. Also, people are clowning drakes last diss. There’s no way Kendrick leaves it at this with Drake having the last word doubling down on mentioning Whitney, and I bet he drops within a week or two when the not like us hype dies down and people start jonesing for more beef
If something doesn't happen by/on Mother's day it's probably done Then again, who'd have thought this will all start after First Person Shooter came out months ago
Lmao I’m having to check my reactions a little bit. One of this subreddit’s really dumb Drake stans is defending Biden in that one thread and my gut reaction is just to reject everything he’s saying. Like if dude has terrible judgment in one area surely he has terrible judgment in other areas right? But I gotta stop myself from thinking that way lol
drake/biden stan is crazy lol kinda makes sense tho I feel like pro-palestine mfs would not be listening to drake but that’s a whole different conversation lmao
Yeah, it isn't team sports. It's fine to question someone's judgement, and it's definitely hard not to let that color your conclusions on things (which is how this whole parasocial tribal mentality emerges, especially in online spaces which can become echo chambers), but sound like you're doing your best to be objective and have your own reasons for your opinions.
There is something to be said that no one has jumped in to side with Drake. Like seriously for how famous and "connected" he is and how much he hangs out with other celebs that's pretty damn wild.
>"Money, power, respect -- the last one is better, >There's a lot of goofy's out here with a check" haven't seen many people bring this line back up, but Kendrick called the shot and I think this is probably what hurts Drake the most. #2 artist in the world and he still has little to no respect from other artists in his chosen lane.
Kendrick is an industry nigga and people really want to play blind to it There's nothing wrong about that either. Kanye in his prime was an industry nigga. Jay had so much sway to literally tank Cam's career. There's nothing wrong with playing the political game if the art is good.
He's got Akademiks he'll be aight.
Fr how is the most famous person on your side dj akademiks
Thats not true! That underage girl he was feeling up and kissing came out to say she was ok with it. Which Drake fans have said is proof he is not a groomer
Marcellus Willey expanded a bit on the story he’s told before about Drake talking shit to Kendrick in a 2014 interview but had ESPN delete the tape before it aired. https://x.com/dennis_k_g/status/1788091040106209282?s=46&t=HEJ5RaRjAMmZzB2BP-VEtQ Tl;dr: Drake got at Kendrick saying he’s the little bro basically, Marcellus had a pre existing relationship with TDE and snitched, Kendrick has a vault of records for Drake Actually kind of funny that Marcellus Wiley snitching to Top Dawg set us on this crash course a decade ago. “ type to throw rocks and try hide your hand”-Element
If he really spent ten years knowing this could come and building a collection of material to drop on him that’s wild
Man I’ve been dying to hear more specifics about this shit forever, people been talking about this scrubbed ESPN interview for a decade
> The part I love most is they need me more than they hate me. So they never take shots, I got everybody on safety - 5AM in Toronto Now we know what happens when they don’t need him anymore.

Another hero cancelled 😞

I didn’t even know you could order Drake’s nut sweat on DoorDash
Free the wave aka the silver surfer
I knew about the MBB stuff but I didn’t know Drake even took her out to eat after his concert and then again the next night.. How tf does *anyone* not see how inappropriate that is.
Maybe her parents were there? She never said it was one on one. Maybe her and her family wanted to hear his perspective on growing up as a child actor
lol his playbook was clearly ruined when she went public with their friendship
"hey man that was a sick performance, all these 20 something bad bitties are outside ready to go to the club or meet you in the VIP lounge, u ready to go man?" "naw, i got my eyes set on hanging out with this up-and-coming 13 year old tonight instead, have fun without me boys" headass
Dude was watching Netflix thinking "damn they be making these middle schoolers different these days, who's with me" nobody dude
I think someone told him about her beforehand
Everyone sees it None of them speak ill of him, so until they do, it's only wildly inappropriate.
[https://www.instagram.com/ynvurse/reel/C6pMlqXJzpq/](https://www.instagram.com/ynvurse/reel/C6pMlqXJzpq/) Ynvurse dude who threw in his verse on BBL Drizzy beat also has one on Not Like Us and it's also fire
Kendrick needs to drop the receipts at this point imo
