Kendrick is most certainly dropping more. Not a chance in hell he let's Drake have the last word. I'd say it's a near guarantee.
Drake vs. Kendrick, Future, & Metro - 5/12 - Drake waves the white flag. Beef is over
- Thread starter Mattmo831
- Start date
- Entertainment
Hmmmm. Seems to tie in with the stuff about other UK rappers above?? All coming together now lol
Nah it really doesn't. This isn't some 'I'm the best rapper' type shit. This is Kendrick genuinely hating that man and everything he stands for
That's the thing, right? I wonder what the timeline looks like if drake doesn't start in and escalate on the family front. Probs only Not Like Us or a version of that comes out which focuses more on the culture vulture aspect of things. No pedophilia aspect, lighter on the energy in general
I think Drake really thought he would end it with the Dave Frees line in Family Matters - but Kendrick nullified that extremely well with MTG. Must be frustrating for Drake because his killer blow got swept under the rug. If Kendrick hadn't responded so adeptly, the conversation may be more in favor of Drake. But it's over now.
Nail on the head
I feel like we just talked about this.
Curious how Kendrick even responds to The Heart Part 6.
Like, the "I'm too famous to be a pedophile" angle is sooooo fucking stupid.
And then half the track is "You assume I'm a child molester because you were molested as a child".... but that's not even what Mother I Sober is about. And it's not like you have to dig deep to understand that, like "Yeah, if you just listen once it SOUNDS like Kendrick was molested, but ACTUALLY if you dissect every line until you grasp all this hidden meanings, you'll see that he actually WASN'T." It's preeeetty clear it's about his mom being abused, not him.
So do you point out all the dipshittery in Heart pt 6? Do you ignore it and give receipts for some of the claims on Meet the Grahams and Not Like Us?
Kind of feel like those are the two ways forward. I'm really liking the Kendrick tracks, I've listened to Not Like Us like half a dozen times already, but another version of "You like kids" is going to start to get old. Needs to escalate in some way IMO for another response to be worth it.
I wonder if Kendrick actually has/ had ten tracks planned, or if that was just Drake bullshitting. It'll be interesting to see if he goes ahead with releasing them, or changes plans.

I put all the songs that are out on Spotify on a playlist in release order and it actually flows together really well! Especially euphoria -> family matters -> MTG
Oh, right, duh.
Man, like I said I've listened to that track multiple times but so much has been said in such a short time it's easy to lose track.
I don't pretend to know how rap beefs work as I'm sure they have their own nuances, but any rhetorical battle (whether it be poetry, dueling opinion columns, etc) will have some things in common. You take the available information/rumors about a person and you try to either emphasize those further or use that information to insinuate further things about them---in other words you want to make any insult you deliver believable to the audience.
You can try to insult other aspects of a person that are totally unknown but those tend not to land as hard because they don't have anywhere to attach to the person.
The reason that the shit hurled at Drake sticks to him is because it takes already existing information and pushes it a little bit further. He's been publicly creepy so it's not hard to make the further insinuation that he might be even creepier in private.
The wife beating stuff on Kendrick doesn't land as hard because you have to look really hard and probably misinterpret shit in order to find any hint that he's the type of guy who would do that. And if nothing else, it isn't in the public consciousness in the same way Drake's behavior is. This is where Kendrick not being nearly the public figure Drake is helps him.
Me, for example, someone who got drawn in from outside, was aware of Drake's behavior but knew nothing about Kendrick. I'm guessing a lot of people are the same way.

Family matters drake claims "K-Dot shit is only hittin' hard when Baby Keem put his pen to it"
Baby keem can't even write his own raps and about 15+ reference tracks recorded by Kendrick leaked for keems debut album.
It's the most laughable thing he said
That said Kendrick's 16 reference track is a vibe

It's funny that it's reached the stage where people are poring over legal documents to get more dirt.
Listening to that atlanta verse on not like us just drill as it in even more. Drake really called us slaves man.
Typical aubs to release an absolute stinker of a track to muck up the vibes at the end of this beef. He rallied his ovo cult to his side though so I guess that's what counts to him in the end.
And I guess it's normal after all the stuff that was flat out put out there about Drake and others that people wouldn't feel right about just leaving that alone. The Akademiks and Vlads of this culture are still out there putting out their nasty influence on things.

If Kdot can win this battle cementing himself as the greatest MC of his generation while effectively exposing Drake and taking him down P Diddy style he might be seen as the consensus greatest ever.
How dare you get me excited about a new Action Button video
