Drake said “I was really tryina keep it PG” and Kendrick said “Yeah I bet you were” 💀
Damn 😂
Playing. With. Girls.
😂😂
he did it so that his girlfriend can listen to it
@@GavrielRosario HA💀
Drake lost the moment he realized Kendrick is the most boring rapper in history, his digital footprint is cleaner than your grandparents
When I saw him at Bonnaroo I was on a bunch of shrooms and shouted “my favorite thing about Kendrick is that he is perpetually and aggressively a 40 year old dad and has been since he was born.”
His family called him ManMan as a kid for a reason. That boy emerged fully grown
Drake had a team trying to dig up dirt and they probably found an overdue library book a couple parking tickets and *gasp* sneaks his own candy into movies
Next he's gonna reveal how Kendrick forgot to wash his dishes last week
I am 100% sure he's the type of guy who puts dirty dishes in the sink not the dishwasher. AND washes dark cloths together with brightly coloured ones. A true monster
“Kendrick just opened his mouth, someone go get him an award” is the cattiest, most obviously jealous line I can remember in rap beef history
That's what that little Canadian poseur has always been like
Kinda a throwback to that ig tantrum he threw back a decade ago when Macklemore publicly apologized for winning the Grammy over Kendrick
Drake got washed, but I will admit It was a funny line. Your explanation is the best worded representation of it I’ve seen
I think this would have landed IF kendrick wasn't decorated lol
lmaoooo that line was so funny f*** drake tho
Drake lost a beef against Anthony Fantano, how's he gonna beat Kendrick?
Holy shit.
Wow.
I feel like ppl were so quick to move past that. Hanging around all those teenagers has really fucked with his ability to handle conflict like a fuckin adult LMAO
this thread is so important…how do i save this
Lost to Pusha, Fantano and K-Dot, god damn. 0-3 in his last 3 fights, time to hang the gloves.
Ok but that beef was one of the funniest things to witness in real time. It almost gave me a soft spot for Drake for being such a clown so that I have that video series to watch when I need a good laugh. (I like Drake when he is a meme, I don’t like Drake trynna be taken seriously)
The vegan cookies video itself was funny af, even not knowing the full story. And then Drake outing himself as a creep bc Fantano tried to make light of his creepiness instead of engaging it was just such a bizarre own goal but also on brand that it was poetic. And Fantano finally having to make a full video about Drake being creepy about his now ex wife because Drake can’t allow his misogyny ignored…
Video not even up 15 minutes, and Drake stans already salting up the comments with their tears before they finished the video 🤣🤣🤣
Massive Copium on there part lol
Edit: Case in point
So this video ain’t just 30mins of Kendrick meat riding
@@mnkm5860 That insult has become completely meaningless at this point because you can do the most profound, neutral analysis of the beef and somebody will call you a dick rider for complimenting one side or the other.
@@arvaakuka8568literally
@@mnkm5860 bro yall say that about each video that talks about Kendrick….like dang why is so hard to admit your favorite lost…it’s not like he’s losing numbers or anything he still go be one of the top artists no matter what happens
In a way they both won
Drake's inability to read the room ultimately led to his downfall. He's the heel who thinks he's the face.
Y’all so damn corny with this shit
Basically how John Cena's character was during his prime🤦🤣
@@Renegade-kf8fp That's literally a large part of his downfall here. The slavery line, the Mother I and the Millie Bobby line. He also didn't seem to understand no one really trusts him since he clearly thought Family Matters was the killshot/red button.
This
Are you saying his Reign of Terror is over?
I'm glad Kendrick explicitly talked about how Adonis is Black.
It shows that his jabs about Drake's Blackness weren't about him being bi-racial/light-skinned, but we're a critique of how Drake exploits Black culture without being part of it or for it.

@@josh44026meet the Grahams
💯. So many people missed that and really hanging on to the racist narrative with their last tooth.
He literally called Adonis a black man & referenced as king.
Drake coming at Kendrick for the Taylor and Maroon 5 collaborations is the DEFINITION of throwing rocks from a glass house
Tbf that was the point of the bar saying he's just as commercial as drake is
Actually, I think it was one of his best shots: Kendrick is also making songs to "pacify" the audience.
@@moustik31i mean compared to his whole discography that’s juss a small portion of his work come on now lol. Most of his music electrify people.
@@sxlrac_barlos3392 From a diss track pov, it's still a good jab.
@@moustik31 sayong "you do the same thing i do" as an INSULT, is not the move you think it is
the heart part 6 did more damage to drake than any of kendricks songs "if i did it i would have been caught"
The recurring joke that Drake must have written this one himself because he self-owns so much 😭
And that’s why Kendrick ain’t drop another song to respond… sometimes letting somebody talk for themselves is the best route, let you bury yourself 😭😭 the last song we got to go back to is the one where man’s is claiming he’s too famous to be a chester molester like we don’t have diddy and Russell Simmons running around… R Kelly was free for 20 something years and we had his ass on tape
His lyrics age worse everyday. Look at that Diddy situation right now. Diddy was able to hide that footage because he's rich and famous.
Imagine mocking a potential victim of SA when you accused of being a pedo..like what?? And the touch my body bar was just cringy as well
To be fair to Drake, it's a basically impossible accusation to answer. Like there's no version "guys, I'm not a pdf, believe me!" that doesn't sound creepy.
My partner is in France and he heard they not like us in a supermarket 💀
It's everywhere at this point. I had a friend in Vermont tell me they heard Not Like Us in a store, my bro told me today the manager at the hotel he works at was blasting it, and another friend told me his boss was blasting it in his office at work. It's unavoidable at this point lol
@@KiraDaBeastNY kdot united the world its so funny 😭
I live on a native American reservation in rural Montana and Not Like Us is currently the most requested track on the tribe’s only radio station
I heard Not Like Us come on in a fucking dispensary in Massachusetts yesterday
Heard it at Dutch karaoke yesterday 🙌
You know Drake fucked up when Sig is calling it “The N-Word”
Sorry would you mind explaining what you meant..? I'm an 18 year old oldie not very much associated with hip-hop and updates, 🤭
A point that needs to be stressed more is that it didn't even feel like Drake cares if Kendrick beats Whitney. He said it not because he cares about domestic abuse but because he thought it would make Kendrick look bad. Otherwise he wouldn't have defended Tory Lanez
Or shouting out Chris Brown on the same song
@@AngeBiampandouor flirting with a supposed DV victim on the track while making puns about her being beaten. If Kendrick did commit DV, the tone taken by telling her to "shake that ass for Drake" and that "when I hit you back it's a lot safer" is also SUPER fucking ghoulish and belies a lack of respect to DV victims, women in general, and obviously Whitney herself.
Exactly.
They both are trying to Me Too each other…that’s what a rap battle is getting angles on each other whether it’s true or not
And contrastingly Kendrick (even if we don’t truly know how much HE cares about issues he appeared to emphasise e.g., human trafficking, pedophilia, facilitation of abuse) DID perform VERY WELL AT giving a shit.
If Drake gave a fuck, he did a really really poor job of presenting that.
I'll never forget seeing Drake fans trying to go back in Kendrick's old tweets to find something and it's literally just "Hey Guys, I'm gonna perform at Best Buy :)"
that shit was so funny
🤣🤣🤣
Mf did it for free too for the rollout of one of the greatest musical albums of all time 😭😭
looking back at old interviews all i find is that he hates raisin bran
Lool man, poor Drake.
I made my sister who only likes K-Pop and stuff like Abba, listen to meet the grahams. Because she super hates drake for texting minors. And she cried and sent me a bunch of specific lines she loved and just texted me this morning that she's listening to tpab for the first time. Kendrick went so hard that he's pulling in people who don't even listen to hip-hop
That’s amazing
Okay I literally went through the same thing, not super into rap, hate drake cause I KNEW he was a pdfile (hated when everyone bumped teenage fever)!!! but following the beef listened to all of Mr. Morale and tpab and definitely see why Kendrick is legendary, not what I was expecting rap to be but at the same time so much better?? Good on you dragging your sister into this cause the albums are WORTH 🎉🎉
That boy Kendrick really does make music that is bringing families together 😂 love that for you guys
No for real I had never listened to either Kendrick or Drake but hated him!!!
That's so freaking hilarious 😂
Kendrick is a lyricist, Drake is an entertainer, and J Cole is a wise man to know not to fight a war that didn't need to be fought 😂😂😂
Well said
Meet The Grahams slowly creeping into frame with the piano is hilariously poetic lmao
A rap beef forced people to listen to lyrics and now Kendrick album sales for all his records are going up. Truly a return to form for hip hop.
this was always the prophecy. kendrick was always meant to take his place as the rightful rap heir.
He ain’t no Gil Scott heron that for sure
There was something I found funny that Drake made the Family Matters video basically a karaoke lyric video. It's almost like I don't trust my audience to catch every line so let's spell it out 😂.
@@vietnamesericefarmer2602 haha good point
Lyrics Kendrick is not lyrical 😂😂
Another youtuber once said that they don't like calling people stupid or smart. They're choosing to describe people as curious or incurious. And Drake fans are the definition of Incurious. They don't want to think about music. They don't want to think about why people respect Kendrick so much.
Good observation
That's a great way to put it
I'm stealing this... thank you.
That’s a great way to put it. I’ve been trying my best not to call people stupid regarding music because at the end of the day. It’s all subjective, but people can at least try to understand why Kendrick (or in fairness, the inverse, why Drake) is popular
Who is this youtuber? What's the name of the video?
Thing about the short joke. I'm very short and no one likes a short joke more than me.
But when things are getting real, a short joke is just weak. Any jab at a physical characteristic when you opponent is hitting hard about behaviour, just seems desperate.
This 100%. If you jab at someone's height, that's just having bad genetics. But if you jab at someone for texting minors? He CHOSE to do that. He knew it was wrong and did it anyway. There's no coming back from that.
Being short isn’t bad genetics. Being short is just being short. And this is coming from a woman who is 5’9”. There are whole groups of people, ethnic groups that are short in relation to others. Imperialism and globalism has forced people together, making physical differences more varied and extreme than they ought to be.
I was thinking this too. I’m fat and I been hearing those jokes both in lighthearted ways and malicious ways since like middle school, a mf would have to be way more creative than drake to come up with a variation that could get past the thick skin surrounding that insecurity.
True that's like punching your enemy while your enemy is putting holes in you with AK.
@@shaspearman8647 maybe “bad genetics” is a mean way to put it. but it’s still definitely a genetics thing. something that can’t be helped, which was ultimately the point
Drake didn’t know how to approach Kendrick… his image is based on his cultural stature and it’s an area where Drake is incredibly clumsy and tone deaf
Exaactly. He was fumbling around, searching for ammunition. Whether or not what he claimed about Kendrick's marriage is true remains to be proven, but we see throughout this beef that drake couldn't even come close to dissecting his opponent on an analytical level. Goes to show the limits of his cognitive abilities 🤣
He should have taken a lesson from The Book Of Cole - thou shall not beef with someone in a higher weight class lol
And this is where him and Tory Lanez differ as Canadians doing American Hip Hop ..Tory's is more organic vs Drake on the strength of Wayne stimulus package
Kendrick "Not like us" was like the 1990's for a brief moment.

With the Meet the Grahams beat behind it. Well played.
I have a suspicion that this moment was a part of the script, which if so is absolutely genius
@@joshuafetter3831certainly helps with engagement haha, well deserved either way
Nah because it not that good.
Family matters is better then it. His timing when dropping it was great, but the daughter claim miss, and the energy wasnt there.
It did what it was ment to, but if we stopped at that point not sure if most would say kendrick 100% won
I think he legit forgot, and had no shame whatsoever into editing it into a postmortem joke at his expense. One of many reasons I’ll drop anything when I see he uploads 😂
i'm still floored by drake's logic of "oh, you're so hung up on this predator accusation because you're a victim."
like first of all, you don't have to be a victim to be disgusted and outraged that someone like drake is a predator. second, i cannot understand how he misinterpreted mother, i sober so FUCKING BAD. he fucked up so bad that people went back to put money in kendrick's pockets just to prove drake wrong. like it's truly comedic.
"Proposed in 2015 but dont wanna make her your actual wife" Now drake I know u aint talking when u hid a child and didnt marry the girl u got pregnant. You didnt even make it to that point 😭😭😭💀
Unpopular opinion: Meet the Grahams is the best track from this whole beef. Spooky, 90s-esque, and a gut-punch. Produced by the Alchemist as well. The track and the strategy when dropping is just legendary.
Seek help you got no taste
So everything he said in the song just went straight over your head, huh?
Huh? Most people in comment sections know that Meet the Grahams is the best track of the beef, why would that be unpopular?
Not the best, but I can't stop playing it. I get goosebumps when he talks to Drake's mom, tells her to sit down for this. So much pain, and the music reflects it. It really hits different.
Let it stay unpopular
I am convinced after this that megan would have also stomped drake if nicki didnt throw herself in front of him to take the shot
100% I think everyone forgets Meg was the first to throw shots at Drake and the industry as a whole, it was just Nicki who get down mr. President-ed for them and got CTE-ed out of the rap game
@@lucastaylor3399 right, like two whole sections of the video were dedicated aesthetically to women who publicly ridiculed that man on two seperate occasions 😭
Fiq has actually mentioned this before and I have no doubt it'll come up in the new video, because the fact that Megan and "Hiss" specifically really got the ball rolling on the "Fuck Drake" moment of 2024 is honestly beautiful.
@@ConvincingPeopleWhat's extra beautiful is that Meg getting that ball rolling is ultimately Drake's fault. Absolutely NO ONE made that dude mock Meg. He *chose* to be a catty bitch and it led to this.
@@dabunnydabunny1243 exactly. That part.
going back to euphoria and 6:16, the "let's not go there, man" lines feel all the more gracious because i'm convinced kenny has dreamed about doing this as brutally as he did for years
FD got so traumatized by Meet the Grahams that his brain just blocked it.

hes performing at the coca cola arena in october. coca cola supports israel he still has time to back out but its important to know
👏👏👏👏
@@teenxtcy Coca cola doesn't support Israel so much as it has a bottling plant in Israel, it's not the kind of company to take any stance on this.
@@teenxtcy Unless they try to censor him he should absolutely not back out. That would be the weakest shit ever lol.
@@teenxtcy better to still perform, and then draw attention to that fact while there. They just throw in on the stadium, it's not as of everyone who performs there is sponsored by Coke personally. So it would actually be a good way to talk about BDS in general.
17:48 Kendrick basically said it about Drake in Meet The Grahams. When he says Drake messed up by targeting his family, he notes "guess integrity is lost when the metaphor doesn't reach you," basically telling him "I know you're taking these low cheap shots because you're just too stupid to swing at my level"
And then Drake proves it in The Heart pt 6 when he demonstrates an utter lack of comprehension of Mother I Sober, and seems to admit he only values Not Like Us of all Kendrick's tracks, solely because it's the most danceable beat. He only values as far as he can reach.
If Drake does have real hate for Kendrick, this is probably why. He hates that he doesn't *get* Kendrick or why other people put Kendrick above him, and that Kendrick makes him look and feel stupid. Like, what kind of a jab is it to tell Kendrick to use triple entendre and be deep? He's basically going to the kids who's better at math and saying "oh whatcha gonna do, pass the math exam with higher grades than me??" and expect it to sting.
He fought this whole beef as though they were playing on the same terms; like internet comments and Instagram follows would be ample ammunition, when it just came off like *desperate teenage girl* logic (wonder how he picked up that mentality). In the end, Kendrick even showed through Not Like Us that people didn't even need Drake for them to have rowdy hits they could dance to. That's all Drake had left over Kendrick, but if Kendrick even had him beat in that category, then what reason does anyone have left to defend Drake or keep him?
I don't think Drake hates Kendrick because he doesn't get him. It's purely because he doesn't understand why people like him more. In Hip Hop, while it was the Big 3 for years, it was obvious there was a certain reverence for Kendrick that just wasn't there for Cole and Drake. And that bothered the shit out of Drake. As for the whole thing about him telling Kendrick to use triple entendre and be deep? It's the whole mentality that Kendrick is a boring rappity rap mfer, that quite a few people have for Kendrick.
Just look at the comments people were making during the rap beef. Multiple people joked about Kendrick coming back and dissing Drake over a jazz instrumental, even people who were Kendrick fans. Someone in the comments above noted that a youtuber stated this about Drake fans but I think it also applies to Drake. They're incurious. Maybe they aren't "dumb", but they're surface level thinkers, and that doesn't make em worse than people who think a bit more deeply, but they just aren't interested in things that you have to look deeper into. And it's clear this is why they misread Kendrick. They just aren't at all interested in learning why people like him.
To them he's just some weird dude who makes unfun jazz rap and postures as a social activist. Nothing more to it.
I agree with you honestly. It reminds me of when Drake shouted out MF DOOM on IG once. It felt disingenuous because it doesn't feel like Drake genuinely concerns himself with that side of hip hop anymore. He seems to want the hardcore underground respect without doing the work musically. It's just weird to me.
I read the the song differently.
“I guess integrity is lost when the metaphor doesn’t reach you”
Kendrick is claiming drake didn’t have the ability to listen to what he was saying, because of that he lacks integrity.
I believe Kendrick honestly wanted to have a different type of rap battle with this man. He didn’t want to do any personal cheap shots or family dissections.
“We ain’t gotta get personal, this a friendly fade we should keep it that way.”
“You fucked up the moment you mentioned my family’s name”.
This would have been a very different battle had drake not roped in Kendricks wife and kids. Even as someone who isn’t as much of a fan of Not like us, I understand why he took the approach.
It was to spite drake for all the petty allegations he threw at him. Kendrick did a better one in every conceivable way.
Family matters was drakes big red button and when it didn’t bang like he hoped it was outta ammo. Not to mention I can only imagine his defeated face witnessing Kendrick drop moments after and watching everyone hop back to his side.
Even if I were to think Drake had teenage girl mentality it doesn’t stick with me as we know he is quite intelligent.
You can tell by how he approaches this whole beef with dirt tactics and whatever. He took false methods of bringing down Kendrick instead of true ones. That makes him look worse.
Cheap shots, dirt, addressing everyone not named Kendrick is what did him in for me since family matters maybe even pushups.
Hopefully drake will put up great music after this. Family matters and pushups was missing for a longtime.
I like your points 👉🏾 👈🏾 👇🏾👏🏾
Don't be mean to teenage girls
I was telling people FROM THE START that Euphoria was the warning shot. He lets him know VERY CLEARLY that he could say more, and he did.
Its hard to fight back when Kendrick hit the nail on the head, "You're not a colleague, you're a fuckinh colonizer"
A lot of people want to play this off as just generic beef, but it feels more like Kendrick defending hip hop as a political art form that allows poor kids from the worst areas of the country to transcend the circumstances of their birth, against Drake who represents the co-opting of that genre to defang it, making it safe and palatable for the establishment, taking out the righteous anger and replacing it with empty commercialism and celebration of the very aspects of society that hip hop originated to oppose.
Its the same thing that happened with Elvis and rock
FD gets it. People who were complaining how Kendrick was just saying stuff that wasn’t new is entirely missing the point. What gave Euphoria power, and what allowed Kendrick to body Drake in general, is that he voiced what the culture has always felt about Drake.
Kendrick used his reputation to turn public reception against Drake, because everyone knew Drake was a piece of shit: We just wanted someone like KDot to say it publicly.
That’s why people are clowning on Drake, and crip walking to “Certified Lover Boy, Certified Pedophile”
The same culture that pushed so many new acts out because they didn’t want to get down with the gatekeepers
I can tell this is also what the industry wanted everything against drake to spoke on know while the insane amount of info on not only Kendrick but all of tde is just covered up and one seems to care i mean like theres alot but i guess only people who would care would be people who are unbiased like me
😂😂😂😂
This flew over so many peoples heads
He laid it all out clearly, over a beat and with serious artistry. The fact that we already knew or suspected those things to be true just makes them hit even harder.
One of my favourites is the Atlanta verse in Not Like Us. It's not new information at all, everyone knows this is how Drake operates on every project since the future collab album, but he lays it all out so cleanly and makes that punchline hit so hard, and now it's imprinted in everyone's mind forever, along with "A minor" and "certified pedophiles"
I can’t stop eating the beef content. I’ve watched mfs I’ve never had before over this.
It’s been fuckin great.

That Meet the Grahams drop was the spookiest shit I’ve ever experienced in Hip-hop. I had LITERALLY just found out about the release of Family Matters, and then I get a message from my dude like, “Kendrick dropped.” Man WHAT? No the fuck he didn’t, the song JUST came out! I open UA-cam, and there it is; Meet the Grahams. That eerie ass piano riff kicked off and froze me in time. I don’t think I breathed or blinked the first two minutes of the track. What a crazy moment.
one W early move by Dot was removing his copyright claims. he knew people needed to go to reaction channels/music channels/rap fans to understand his bars. and we needed to be able to hear those songs in full not chopped up. and that he was gonna go for a club banger knockout that would have tiktok dancing.
its actually so eeries how "prophetic" euphoria ended up being. it went exactly as he said it would. he predicted every angle. kung fu kenny really built different
Mr Kendrick.... Boogeyman Lamar (old man laugh)
The boogeyman of rap 😈
Euphoria was a master class in predictive programming in telling a man about himself and he goes out and does everything to a T. Down to a manipulated shooting at his home to draw attention away from the other allegations.
Not to mention all the badass animations we got out of it!
“They had almost a week to recover from the euphoria of Tuesday’s series winning victory” is pretty damn accurate how it ended.
Went to the park with my little sister yesterday and there were so many kids shouting "a minooooooor" its insane
My car got totaled last week so I've been riding the bus way more and at least once every single day while waiting at the stop I've heard a car roll by bumping "not like us". Every. Single. Day.
Public schools might as well make that song the new theme for stranger danger awareness at this point
This is legitimately the best thing I've ever heard coming out from this situation. Literal KIDS are saying that Drake is a pedo... Holy shit...
No one in Drakes camp or fanbase took Kendrick serious because they were being blind to the difference between pop success and hip hop talent, whether they did this willingly or simply not recognizing the difference depends on who is in the discussion. For his camp I think it was a bunch of "yes men" who were more worried about losing their spot in his camp than being honest. If you are talking about his fans then I would say there is probably a strong number that either only knows pop rap and nothing about actual hip hop or Drake is their only foray into rap of any kind. There are a lot of people out there who legitimately think that sales numbers means that someone is the best at something and you can't tell them otherwise, well, Kendrick really exposed just how wrong that can be.
Drake lost the moment he crushed a random astrovan... Depriving some Mexican family a ride to work. What an asshole 😂
drake ain't got time to be writing songs about grown men, there are teen girls to groom
LMFAOOO
Nooooooooo😂

Drake didn’t understand this was a boss battle, and not only that it’s a soulslike with multiple stages and attack patterns. Drake didn’t prepare his summons or his buffs or plan his dodges, he just equipped his biggest sword and hoped for the best
I fckn love this metaphor!!!
And not only that, people who are built for a soulslike may make that mistake the first time, but once they realise, they go grind it out and come back better prepared. Instead, he rage-quit and uninstalled
@@KathyClysm the heart part 6 was a total rage quit lol “ I read online that I could make it through stage 2 by spamming Dave free and clearing the wave attack enemies, but I’m losing half my health before I can even find your hitbox. This is bullshit”
Not even gem slotted properly. Straight up inting.
Bro walked into malenia without a black flame weapon
Great analysis however, be advised there was a quintuple entendre in the actual title of Euphoria.
1. It’s a Drake show(obvious)
2. it’s a kill bill reference (20 v 1 theme) (drake posted a kill bill meme prior to its release). In kill bill there is a Truth Serum that ultimately gets the protagonist to see the absolute truth.
3. The second definition provided in its cover artwork refers to “series winning victory on Tuesday”. Which is when it dropped.
4. Euphoria is state of bliss experienced prior to death, Which taps into the fact that Drake was feeling euphoric after push ups not knowing it was actually the beginning of the end.
Im not going to lie. I was under selling Drake before he did his response track. I was hoping for Kendrick and Cole go at it skill for skill. But Drake was saying some lines that had me like ok you getting some hits in but all that stopped when Drake said "you rapping like you trying to free the slaves" that line alone was wild especially coming from the dude who in his last major beef was exposed for black face.

I mean, he DID try to fight back, and just buried himself further. Dude needs to just go into seclusion for a while. Maybe see his kids for once!
p sure that wet fart was just to prevent the next drop, since (from what i heard) they were gonna keep going until they saw a white flag. dragging him out of his bender to cobble that thing together and have it immortalized in the public record is hilarious
Damn!! Lmfao...
He can't. His contract dictates he has to keep pumping out music to pay off that 460 mil they gave him. Plus now he lost Nike money. Drake dropping two more albums before this year over with.
Pull a Kanye and Come back with MBDTF
That's how quicksand works tbh and Kenny buried him
To be fair, and I say this as a diehard Kendrick fan who was in no doubt about who would end this and end it on his terms, the Kendrick Subreddit got really weird and almost pizza gate parallel there for a minute while all this was blowing up....
Every cult of personality is still a cult. Cults require conspiracy to justify their insecurity. Kendrick won, always would take him over Drake (and I'm Canadian) but idolizing any one person too hard is a straight shot towards lunacy.
As soon as I saw a CDAN post in the Kendrick subreddit I had to dip lmao
Both subreddits got really weird. I got banned from the Drizzy subreddit despite being a longtime member for pointing out how weird it is to edit pictures of Whitney and make a conspiracy website
Your first mistake was expecting Reddit to be normal lmao
That's the thing that bothers me is how much kendrick obviously was aware and leaned intoall that kind of shit so
The crazy part is that Not Like Us is just as lyrically layered as all the other Kendrick songs, people are just blinded by the format. But actually go back and read the lyrics 😂. He didnt have to switch up his content in order to beat Drake at “his own game”.
Yes!! That's why I love it so much.
It's almost a perfect song in my eyes, from the beat to the delivery to the catchy and hilarious one liners to the clever and complex wordplay.
I feel like he really gave something for everyone. I don't mind when people just enjoy it as a bop, it slaps and is funny af, but I love it when people dive into the bars too ❤️
@@r-pupz7032 facts like let's not act like the bars are not there tho 😂
I'm still surprised that people are saying "I'm surprised Kendrick was able to make such a banger." To me Kendrick has several bangers. He's shown a long time ago he knew how to make bangers.
Said absolutely no one, men lie (like now) numbers don't

We didn't expect him to make one after Meet The Grahams tho lmao

Unpopular opinion: Drake does not have enough information on Kendrick to make a full Diss Song.
That was part of it too. He didn’t have much to work with. On top of that Kendrick had tons of material on him because well he’s the enemy.
Might be true, but again, Drake is not talented enough to expand on one theme. He was dropping his info on Kendrick like in one or two bars and its over. While Kendrick could expand on one idea/info the entire verse. Drake depended on tea, but Kendrick starved him by not giving him the responses. Its very embarrassing that Drake even went ahead to restate how Whitney/Dot are not responding to the allegations. Thats desperation out of lack of info. He needed Dot to respond so that they can start a back and forth, but Kendrick starved him out of it. Meen, Kendrick really is smart. He cornered Drake so bad that Drake announced his intentions to quit the battle and go on a vacation on two different songs, thats crazy.
One of my favorite consequences of this situation is how Kendrick is being embraced so fully everywhere. It’s warm in Mississippi & I keep hearing GKMC when people ride by with the windows down. Puts a smile on my face every time.
What's crazy is that I don't think Kendrick has gone all out.
People need to keep this in mind.
Kendrick called this man a "certified pdf file" and yet shortly after in that same song, still said: "Rabbit hole goes deep, I can go further, I promise. Ain't that somethin'...?"
I think Kendrick has some serious dirt (and receipts to back it) on Drake. Which is why he's so confident and nonchalant in dropping all the heavy accusations on the tracks, and why drake is waving the white flag
Kendrick ain’t clean either but whatever
@@onetwo8847 if he has receipts he should’ve dropped them immediately, or does he care more to have something on drake than stopping a sex trafficking ring if it really is true?
@@Renegade-kf8fp yeah but you basing that off accusations drake made with zero evidence, that even AK (number 1 drake fanboy) has refuted lol. There are PLENTY of reasons to suspect the things drake is accused of tho lol, even if we don't have the smoking gun yet

I believe Kendrick won primarily because of his narrative writing ability (which is why he’s just a great, pulitzer prize winning artist in general). Meet the Grahams is a masterpiece of narrative, where Kendrick paints Drake in such an eerie, disturbing light in a form of an intervention he’s staging on Drake’s family. Drake tried to do a tiny piece of that narrativizing/psychoanalysis on the heart part 6 (the mol*sting part) which completely fell flat because of his obvious misinterpretation of Mother I Sober.
Even if the daughter part doesn’t turn out to be true, it is a believable story in the midst of all the other facts we know about him, and Kendrick’s ability to tell this story of Drake as a ‘sick man with sick thoughts’ is what got him the W. Kendrick painted the picture fully and disturbingly, while Drake only said ‘you hired a crisis management team to hide the fact that you beat on your queen, *the picture you painted just aint what it seems* ‘ Drake wanted the listeners to ‘paint that picture’ ourselves in our own imaginations, while Kendrick painted it for us in gory detail with Meet the Grahams.
👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 alla this
Kendrick's disses complimented one another and made earlier lines make more sense. In some cases it created moments Drake's rebuttal of an earlier line from Dot no longer works because he was essentially responding to the wrong thing. An example being the "We don't like the women you f*""k" Drake flipped it to say "I have relationships with black women so what do you mean by that. But later we see Kendrick was calling him a sex pest.
@@Lucy-cv7tmYes. The whole thing that made it so effective is him tearing his armour off piece by piece. Maybe how he delivered some of the... info was a little wrong (like uhh call the cops), but the way he used everything to build up, knowing Drake would have to respond, to disassemble his whole public persona was so good. Kendrick doesn't actually have to believe that Drake isn't black, he just has to point out that it's an insecurity for him because he doesn't address black issues in any way, and it hits because he doesn't really have a rebuttal that would save face for his position in the culture.
FD's Drake video aged so well, man.
The thing that gets me about Kendrick's diss tracks is that every single part of those songs are disses. The cover art, the choice of samples, the choice of producers, the titles, everything. Meet the Grahams is even in the key of A minor, so the line on Not Like Us is a callback. There's like 5 different things to dissect before you even listen to the track.
100% hit the nail on the head and something I've said to others. If we compare rap to stand up comedy Drake has always been that witty 2 line joke comedian or what I call a "bar rapper" where the setup and punchline is at max 4 bars. Whereas Kendrick is that comedian kind of like Chappelle at his best where he is giving you those small jokes or bars but it using them to build up a bigger setup and punchline. Basically story telling rap.
This has always been a weakness of Drake as a rapper he is incomplete because he's never had that skill/done it well which is surprising because most of the rappers we consider as the GOATs have that ability.
For the old heads, It was a "you sunk my battleship!" moment. Or watching a Mike Tyson fight and the fight is over after 1 minute. You knew it was going to happen, but it was so violent and sudden you couldn't help to be surprised.
Drake thought Family Matters would be a knockout blow, but it appears Kendrick already heard it. Drake thought he had the inside scoop, but was scooped instead with intelligent, multilayered lyrics. Then Kendrick made everyone dance while calling Drake a pedo. Coup d'grace
It was a great weekend chessmaster rap battle.
Kdot won with the intro to euphoria.. All my co-workers are Drake fans… after I heard pushups. I told them… yall know ya boy about to get cleared. 😂😂😂 Kdot did not disappoint 😂

@@bagchaser326 bro you can't like your own comment and think you did something.
Drake fought a pop battle in a rap war. He was doomed from the beginning.
This beef between Drake and Kendrick wasn’t a battle. It was a massacre.
What I find wild about this is how Kendrick had way more quotable and funny bars throughout the beef. Like, funny/memorable bars are right in Drake’s lane and he still lost at that.
Mr Instagram Captions couldn't get his punchlines together
Kendrick beat him on EVERY front, even numbers
Only funny lines Drake got is “Kendrick just opened his mouth, someone go hand him a Grammy rn” telling metro to shut up and make some drums which is more funny in retrospect than anything and a personal favorite of mine being “shit we do for bitches, he doing for niggas (what the fuck 🤨)”
@@dontpreorder2783nah I liked that “when you put hands on your girl, was it self defense cuz she bigger than you” too
@@AiirxGeordan I can’t get down with that honestly. Making fun of a man beating his girl, especially after you shouted out Chris brown, comes off shitty to me and after THP6 where he tried to shame Kendrick for being diddled as a child (which isn’t what happened but the sentiment remains) it comes off like Drake don’t really care about abuse happening he just wants Kendrick to look bad
You’re entitled to your opinion tho, I will say the flow and inflection he had on that line was pretty good
Kendrick's immediate response to Family Matters was so smart. I feel like if Kendrick dropped a few days later, a lot more people would say Drake won
Consider the fact that Kendrick was well away of Drake dissing him in 2014 and that interview prevented from being released. I would imagine KDot has kept his eyes on Drake's every move and was patient to utterly destroy him. Just my thoughts.
@@Illthallion I don't think it's that much calculated cause they been going at each other for a decade now with subliminals. however, starting from dot's verse on family ties with keem, it was made clear Kendrick was ready to take it to the next level
I'm not a Drake fan but Family Matters was a banger
@@IllthallionI’m sure he’s had most of these bars on standby for years and he’s been adding to it and keeping notes this whole time. He’s been waiting a long time for this moment and he executed it perfectly.
worst thing in this video is you making me confront the fact that kendrick is in fact, a hotep
"Aiming at the tank" 😂😂
When Euphoria dropped, I said the beginning felt like Kendrick calmly loading a gun and preparing for war… based on that metaphor, Meet the Grahams was the cold-blooded fatal shots and Not Like Us was Kendrick crip-walking at Drake’s funeral lol
all these candid videos of people celebrating and singing along to a song labeling drake a pdf file are still so surreal to me
I like that..drake needs to be shamed for his groomings
Right! We cant let him for get that he was having pillow talk with millie bobby brown at 16 🤢@@afrosamourai400
Me too bro I have a play list of Drake diss songs now and they just so happen to be from my favourite artists I can’t believe this shit waited almost 15 years for it I’ve been eatin
That’s what I said 🤣
I think you could have called it after Drake said "its only big D and there's video proof" and kendrick not even 15 minutes later called him a "sick man with sick thoughts" and claimed that he and people like him "leak videos to push their agendas." That proved Kendricks narrative in more than one way
You’re definitely right about the Drake online bubble. As big as Drake is, I don’t know anyone IRL who listens to him
23:24 "The fact that his red button was family matters,
a song that spends 40% of it's run time
talkin' about other dudes
and another 30% talkin about rumors that he can't prove."
Why is this bars though? 😂😅🙃💀🤠
Best part is that Kendrick shot that shit down in 20 minutes 😂
See, I think we did get the best of Drake. I also think we overestimate him greatly
something tells me he wrote heart pt 6 himself because oof child….
I don’t think he ever had to grow as an artist. I also don’t think the trend hopping helped that either, it made it worse
Lol damn that was his best??? 😬 that’s sad
That's what I've been saying. He is very coddled
Listening to Family Matters again, that is a respectably punchy diss track that if you didn't know any better, would have been deadly for any rapper. Kendrick Lamar was just that fucking guy, he could bounce back in less than an hour and wipe the floor with Drake.
i saw a bbl drizzy track in which the guy made a joke abt kendrick height, something like, "every time kendrick wants to sit he needs to jump.".
after laughing more than i should, i realized a random guy on the internet made a better "short joke" than the most commercially successful rapper ever.
For anyone saying kendrick can't make bangers, I've got a bone to pick
Random thought, do y’all remember Queen Latifah’s diss track to Foxy?
“You couldn’t come up, if you were getting f*cked on an elevator” - Name Callin’
Still one of my favourite lines in any diss track ever 🤣
Random. But anyway, thanks for the video! 🌟
Who said it? Foxy? That's hard as fuck
Latifah, she went hard back in the day. Foxy had no chance.
I legit just listened to name callin part 2 the other day ‼️😭
thats fire bruh
DAMN
Kai Cenat screaming “DRAKE GET UPPPPPP GET UP DRAKE” after the Sexy Redd line was the beginning of the end lmao by the story time of they not like us even Ak was talking about how Drake just gonna need to hide and release another hotline bling because the rap shi is over lmao when I woke up to my graveyard shift to see euphoria dropped, I would never have guessed it wouldn’t actually done so much damage to Aubrey and his brand. Even Drake fan channels are just posting about general hip hop last week lmao
2:47 I wouldn’t rule out his ghostwriters mailing this one in. Like sure we can mass manufacture 50 one liners for zoomers and suburbanites, but BATTLE KENDRICK!? Literally not what they signed up for.
😊
@quatariusray9321 I also like Kai's reaction to Meet The Grahams. "...Somebody gotta diiieeee...!!"
That last sentence is such an excellent point.
Here's the gag...this is what he is now as an artist. This was his best. Dude came into this not respecting his opponent and paid for it. He thought he could Meek him and meme his way through this, and he could not. All the tools he used against Meek were turned against him here.
Drake comes in with a shotgun fill with birdshot, trying to tag a bunch of people.
Kendrick has a sniper rifle...
We ate this past couple weeks honestly
Now that I'm actually ruminating tho, your chat about Drake losing his status of 'iconic' got me thinking about how much I liken hip-hop to pro wrestling these days, and to make a metaphor? Drake's spent all his time this past few years telling us he's Bryan Danielson; aiming to spend the twilight of his career putting over the new talent, getting them on and all before he has to retire (while instead Chris Jericho-ing them); and even then-- Bryan Danielson isn't going to get an **"iconic"** bout out of Daniel Garcia, or Jack Perry, or Duane Martin; he still has to go against the likes of Zack Sabre Jr or Will Ospreay to get that **"iconic"** five-star match kind of bout.
Same way with Drake, clout vampiring the new blood is a very fast route to losing your lustre, no matter how many temporary hits it lands you.
I agree! There really was food in the fridge this week 😂
We?
the withdrawal is fuckin TERRIBLE
@@yeonlyn Think I spent the last week refreshing Kendrick youtube page waiting to see if he was gonna end zone dance or nah 😂
Straight fucking facts, you aint never lied @@JFirecracker
The idea of Kendrick being this warlock charging up a big spell to drop on Drake and his crew is so perfect to me. Even better because they were just sitting there taunting him while he prepared the attacks that wiped them all.
Lol
Kendrick the Grey
Hit him with the comet azur
Bro was charging Zettaflare in the back while Rick Ross was tanking damage

Never got how people put so much value in a short joke about a rapper. It’s like yes Kdot is shorter than Drake but what does that have to do with anything?
I feel hung over or like I’m coming down off drugs now that the main part of the beef is over… the whole thing was intoxicating, got really dark for a bit, now I’m snorting up commentary trying to prolong the high and struggling to move on
This is incredibly relatable
SUCH a good analogy
This is me but with the BBL drizzy trend. I’m so starved for disses right now after the high that was meet the grahams
This beef was one of the most beautifully executed baits I have ever seen. Kendrick really gave him enough rope to even hang himself in the end. The crazy part is that Euphoria ends with a warning about what would happen, and the ENTIRETY of 6:16 is describing exactly how Drakes jig was up. A part of me thinks that if Family Matters never came out, we would live in a world without Meet the Grahams or Not Like Us, which is kinda wild to think about.
what annoys me the most about the heart part 6 is that if Drake had actually not given up we could have had even more Kendrick songs - i would have loved to hear them
@@alexmsevansas much as I agree with the sentiment I think Kendrick stomping out Drake even more when it’s so clear to everyone (with a functional brain) watching that Drake is everything Kendrick said he was would sort of ruin the perfect book end to the situation that the heart part 6 drop was. Besides I’m sure Aubrey will fuck around and try to spin back eventually only to get stomped into the dirt again
@@dontpreorder2783 Oh I totally agree, Kendrick does not need to respond or make any new music regarding this considering how badly it went for drake - in fact, it would take away from what he's already done. My comment was more saying it's almost a shame drake didn't put up a better fight SOLELY because I like Kendrick and I would have loved to hear those songs (divorced from the situation entirely)... that being said a little part of me does want Aubrey to fuck around and find out again so we can hear those other songs hahaha
“I have a theory on how this happened…. these ***** is dumb.” 😂😂😂😂😂
Nail hard on the head about Drake and his circle underestimating Kendrick and revealing how little they actually participate in the culture and in being students of the game. Between him completely misreading Mama I Sober and then the B Sharp line, he's even showing that he's not really someone who has the skill to merit his status in the game.
I expected more from Drake too, which to me means, KDot has more on him, didn't empty the full clip, and Drake does not want to push it
I feel like Kendrick would have dropped another diss after The Heart Part 6, but he was prevented by the industry. Like Kendrick is popular, but Drake is still leagues ahead of him in terms of money generated. So the powers that be at UMG probably put pressure on Kenny to drop the beef, because they are losing money on Drake because of Kenny just stomping on Drake
@@51909relapseminem Would not surprise me one bit if UMG didn't offer Kendrick a fat payout to squash the tracks he had lined up. Kendrick was drip feeding info in those tracks progressively, so for him to have another two or three in the chamber wouldn't be a surprise at all.
@@51909relapseminem That could be the ONLY reason Kendrick stopped, Kendrick straight up hates drake and wants him gone, it's like pusha t all over him
It’s wild to me that this is one of very few videos I’ve seen with this sentiment. It seems like people are treating this with kid gloves to save feelings or something, but you’re right. Kendrick won, and it wasn’t even close.
Kendrick crushed him!!
Like ppl are so scared to say definitively that kendrick won and tip toeing around it so they don’t look like a d-rider, but the fact of the matter is Kendrick won, kendrick is objectively more talented than drake and drake just set himself up for a loss 😭
Kendrick won before it started though
I was leaving my 10 year old nephew's baseball game yesterday after they won.... his teammates started playing Not Like Us...💀
10:06 I’m glad someone said Kendrick is a hotep
People forget that Drake lost twice. He lost to Metro. #BBLDrizzy
That man did go make some drums. Gotta give him that 😂 distrumental is hip hop history haha
They played some of "Not Like Us" before a commercial break during the NBA playoffs.
It’s damn near an unofficial song now 😂
Yep
I disagree about kdot’s image and the industry favouring him point. He has always stood on business about issues with the culture and the treatment of his people but he does it so well with such art that anybody with two ears could see the beauty. He’s got the midas touch thats why he gets the grammys and pullitzer.
What gets me about the Drake camp is them believing that Drake lured Kdot into a trap, tricking him into calling Drake a pedo.
Like "AH-HA! I acted sus around underage girls for a decade, & by calling me on it you have fallen for my fiendish plan! Bwaaahahahahahahaha !"
I've never even heard of anyone doing something that stupid in all of my 51 years.
