      Honestly it can be though, Drake is nothing without being famous, he has no character, he has no morals and changes it up to whomever gives him the most money. Kendrick speaks his truths with his chest out and dares us to question.

      @@gabygonzalez9094 Diss tracks: Kendrick dropped a crazy verse on "Like that" out of nowhere on a Metrobooming beat. To understand the context of the bars, you might have to consider the name of the Drake's album on which "First Person Shooter" appears: For All The Dogs. Listen to that first then listen to "Might Delete Later" from J. Cole, that's a whole mixtape though. J. Cole went in on Kendrick especially in the last song but he then went on to "Delete it later" and apologised to Kendrick and said he would remove the last track from the project. There's several bangers on that tape but in terms of lyricism it's nothing ground breaking. The sad part about the Kendrick verse is that he once again dropped it on a cursed beat, it's so corny I can't even stand it personally...

I don't have a mic I have to use my phone, I would love it if you all give me a chance. Tupac, Eminem both were at the same position I'm in right now.
      Since I'm Indian, everybody laughs and says that I will never be successful. I wanna prove them wrong, I wanna show them that my race is something I can't control. What I can control is, that I try my best. Not saying that you have to like my music, just give me constructive criticism or just give me a chance, Please.
