lmfao nah person nongrata is crazy. Kenny really came thru like a wrecking ball on Sir Forest Hills
Yeah I don't doubt he's still going to be a huge artist. People still scramble to get a feature on Kanye's songs, plenty of other artists still have a career after being a laughing stock/being accused or even convicted of similar. But I do think this could be the end of 'peak' Drake where he can fart out any kind of shit and it goes instantly to number one/ is lauded by loads of felching stans and is ubiquitous in pop/rap culture.

What's been great about this entire beef is how it crossed cultural boundaries and now everyone is talking about it. This shit is crazy to me, fucking Pat getting into Kendrick and asking Woolie for album recommendations was not on my 2024 bingo card.

An incredible case study for why you should never build your entire identity and public persona around your fandom for a single individual.
Especially as a middle-aged adult.
This is basically Game in a nutshell.
He's a beef chaser: Game vs 50, G-Unit, Em, Jay-Z, anyone for clout. Like I mentioned a few pages ago, he should probably focus on fixing his public image issue with Diddy allegations before chasing more beef… be he equates beef with sales so he probably thinks that'll make him relevant again.

Im less curious if Drake career is done (Vultures 1 is an album that exists on DSPs , you know) and more if he will change music style after this.
I dont think it will be as overt as MGK straight up doing another genre , but more sticking with the melodies or going more pop and R&B , cause like , if he tries a Knife Talk ever again , he will laughed out of the room.

According to OVO mal we were gonna get a rollout of a kendrick album for his response which ended up not being true lol
Yeah I don't believe what he saids at all but there's been some cryptic shit from AK the past day or two as well so just felt I should say something.
I know this thread is kind of circling the drain anyway, but I think people should appreciate Akademiks more, even as a 40-year old stan. I think this whole thing would be a lot less fun if he didn't exist. Plus his top five clip is objectively the funniest Twitch stream edit ever, embarrassing as it is.
Mans got a big W. Mentioned twice in the biggest back and forth in hiphop history.
(regardless how you feel about him, ofc he is a clown).
Kendrick's strategy of releasing the eerie Meet the Grahams diss an hour right after Family Matters dropped, and then dropping the more commercialized Not Like Us the next day was a master stroke chess move.
That one-two punch put Drake in a paranoid mindset now where he's afraid to drop another diss and get overshadowed again.
He probably expected Dot to drop right after The Heart Part 6, too but he's not taking the bait.

Mentioned and they went to him to release diss records. Think he had the first official version of pushups. Then Ross hit him up to release the champagne moments record.
Most serious rap fans never took Drake seriously well before this, so I don't know if this will make much of a difference to his core audience. If he releases another hit, it will be all over the radio etc.
I don't think most fans think "I used to like Drake, but Kendrick killed him in battle, so I can't check out his stuff anymore"
I don't think Drake will ever truly recover from this. I suspect this is when he transitions to a nostalgia act. He'll still be visible but pop culture will have largely moved on. No one can pretend Drake isn't lame anymore.
I think the beef is over for now but I don't see how it can be over permanently in a world where Drake and Kendrick keep releasing music.

Being the obvious loser in the most visible rap beef in history means Drake going back to sending subs to Kendrick is just going to get him clowned on harder.
That's the one, thanks for replying for me. The edit just has such perfect timing.

Damn, looks like What's the Dirt gonna delay the release of his breakdown again. His last tweet said it's going to be 90 minutes long, it might go 2 hours now if a music video drops lol.

Not gonna lie, I have no interest in a MV.
Kendrick spoiled us with those 4 tracks in a week.
It's only been 10 days since Euphoria dropped, but it feels like a month.
"Like that" feels like it happened last year.

"Beat yo ass and hide the Bible if god watchin" is an underrated line. Cracks me up every time.
Same. The art of a great diss track is the audience making the videos for you
