A "whole machine" has been behind Aubrey for years. But when they support Kendrick, it's wrong? As far as bots are considered, who hasn't used them? The same with payola. And calling defamation of character is a joke. UMG has been nothing but good to Aubrey. Nobody feels sorry for him. If anything, this makes people love Kendrick MORE.
Drake is taking action because his label committed fraud and abuse in order to lowball him. We are talking hundreds of millions in damages. What’s so hard to understand about this? WHAT WOULD YOU DO?

drop this narrative that yall hoes tryna push . If they are gonna defend themselves from the clear agenda thats been against them for years yall are first to pull the words bitter out your asses. Damned if they do damned if they dont
But UMG also let him take shóts at Kendrick didn’t he áççùsê Kendrick of bèàtíñg his wife and all types of other stuff? Didn’t he say he paid somebody to feed that info to Kendrick? So why is he suing over info he leaked? 🤔
I said the same thing. They will destroy him. Should have just took the L and kept quiet for a while. He in his feelings for real cuz im sure he knows how the game goes. They are slaves to this.
Drake didn’t make nobody uncomfortable 😂 EVERYONE INCLUDING BIG FISHES TOLD HIM NOT TO DISS KENDRICK he antagonized that man into shredding him into dust
Drake doesn’t have a case, he has a PETITION to get information. Drake isn’t fighting the machine, HE IS THE MACHINE! He’s been benefiting from the Spotify promotions for a decade! This is a tantrum at best and a sore loser losing grip of reality!
The same Drake that benefited from the same thing he is excusing UMG of but hold on...Kendrick said f the industry but we all know Drake aka Aubrey Graham is Not Like Us and he is a true industry plant and now he has literally gone bad and shrivelling he wants to try and seem calculated but he isnt as calculated we all can predict his angle. Why for Not Like Us and not the rest of Kendrick Lamar’s music from the very beginning. But ah well people always reveal who they truly are eventually.
It’s incredible how everyone is missing the point. Drake is suing because HIS LABEL orchestrated a fraudulent campaign to effect his brand so they can law ball him. It’s clear he’s being lowballed right now. So we are talking hundreds of millions in damages. If he can prove UMG did this everyone is going to have to back peddle with the bitch move narrative. Ask yourself what would you do if someone cost you hundreds of millions? Again…. The court doesn’t care about internet narratives. If he can prove it everyone has to stfu about “the culture”. According to the culture when someone plays with your money you murk them. Ain’t shit different here. Drake is actually taking the high road imo. Tbh, the moment that pedo shit came out it was gloves off and certain types would have already reacted violently to that kind of slander and brand meddling. Drake is a nice guy for even letting it get this far imo
Ok, so why didnt you finish the Jeremy Hecht TikTok video? He explained why Not Like Us played when people asked Siri to play "certified loverboy". That was a function on Spotify to recognized lyrics. Certified loverboy is a bar in Not Like Us. Why didnt u play the part were he was testing it on on other lyrics? It showed it wasnt pushing Dot. They have fixed that function since Jeremy pointed it out months ago.
Thank you! Those people didn't name the artist, or whether they wanted to hear the single or album, so Siri pulled up the most recent results. Not like us came up because Kendrick says ”Certified lover of.” I thought we all knew how search engines work by now. I f they asked for Certified Loverboy by Drake, then maybe I would understand.
The guy on AK stream was ALSO debunked by AK himself and people at Spotify so yeah she’s not even properly vetting and researching what she’s sharing in this video and it’s a bad look.
Disagree with your statement on uncomfortable. Bloggers who’ve done their homework on the topic show receipts of Drake hooking up with high power men’s ladies. That coupled with him cosplaying American culture for capital & constant attacks on black women like Serena and Rihanna’s relationship, it was a matter of time before it caught up with him.
Drake has benefited more from preferential treatment than any other artist. He needs to be careful with these allegations and making sure his hands are clean.
She didn't lie. This whole thing is about politics behind the scenes. Republic doesn't want to give Drake what he deserves so what better way than to sabotage him?
DMX, Coolio, Kanye, MJ, PRINCE, SAM COOKE, etc iThink Drake thinks his other side will "save" his hips. Some people have to learn the hard way. He's abt to find out what bucking against The System looks like
@@tynikagrant6995literally never heard of this. Everyone saying "this is unprecedented in hip-hop" and not a single person saying cardi did this before. Maybe that person is referring to Tasha K as "a diss lawsuit"
I just don’t understand how a label Promoting a song that benefits their artist and the label is fraudulent. Only he wants to make money? People love the song. He makes his own money from his own music. You don’t “allow” a rap beef, rap beefs happen. This is why he is NOT like us. It’s apart of being a RAPPER!
Remember Angie Martinez was saying to Drake that Kendrick was just trying to do a friendly spar and it’s part of hip hop culture and Drake was all salty and miserable and sensitive? He’s truly pathetic.
This is crazy, this is the same shit they use to do for him. Now he is complaining about this now. Drake was never the biggest rap artist in America, this dude has a machine behind him that was helping him win in every category
The way I see it, Drake ruined his reputation not “not like us”. If what Kendrick said wasn't true, why is Drake so bothered to make a move like this 🤷🏾♀️
Exactly. Why's he going after UMG instead of suing Kendrick Lamar for libel, slander, and defamation? Makes you wonder. He probably doesn't want all those skeletons coming out.
I don't understand the comment of "All Kendrick cared about was winning the battle". He was doing what an artist supposed to do in a rap battle.. his job is not to worry about what labels are doing behind the scenes
It truly is a shame how the industry continuously put artists against either. There's enough room for all to be great. They're not happy if drama isn't involved smh sad.
@wedontagelikemilktho.7839 I know why this is going down hun. Idk if you realize but there's always some sort of beef between artists that the industryhas initiated for the sake of "entertainment". That's my point I'm making. It's unnecessary tbh. You enjoy your day tho 😘
UMG did what everyone who was against Kendrick after the beef did, became a FAN. UMG only control distribution for Kendrick, nothing more. Drake and Kendrick don’t even have the same relationship with UMG. I swear some of you content creators need to learn the basics of the subject matter. All Drake did was expose what UMG did for him and thinking it’s what they did for Kendrick
Yeah she got some of her information wrong 😂 I noticed , Kendrick don’t give af about the industry, he makes music for us the culture, Drake is just going out sad 😂
@@katlegobeauty8030 exactly everyone knows he is under pgLang. Folks like Jaguar is running around with the same lie as well. It’s like people can’t do a simple Google search.
@@finegoddess thank you. That’s what annoying because you know not everyone is following the mess but if their only news is from her they will be so wrong and misinformed.
You’re overthinking this and saying a bunch of conjecture. They’ve been beefing for a decade. How did UMG “allow” Kendrick to come at Drake? The song is popular for a reason. You can’t fake the culture
Kendrick didn’t tell Drake to get personal. All he said was “it’s just big ME!” Then Drake became unhinged and mentioned people’s families and this is what he got. 🤷🏾♀️
I didnt know Not Like Us even needed bots, I couldn’t stop playing the song and everyone I know loved the song it was played in night clubs, cookouts all summer.
Drake got several warnings before not like us. In various songs. He started and taunted Kendrick in Taylor made. And Kendrick gave him soft taps in euphoria. Then Drake took the bait and got obliterated and now he’s mad. I didn’t even understand why he would want to go to war with Kendrick when they’re not even the same lyrically.
Drake benefited from some of the same business practices that he's accusing UMG of doing for Kendrick imo. Ỷears ago Spotify had to issue refunds to customers who complained about the Drake spam đuring the release of his Scorpion album. Plus some of the things displayed in this video were already debunked. Siri also plays Drake songs when you say things like "Drop, drop." You say lyrics from a song it takes you to the song. Plus Akademics even acknowledged that the Streams for Not Like Us were actually real after talking to someone at Spotify. Joe in that same clip shown said that Drake uses bots too via UMG etc. The clips were purposely cut short to favor one side clearly 🤷🏾♀️.
That's why he was being passive aggressive on Port Antonio right? That's why he chose to feature Drake on FPS and name Kdot's name, Cole ain't innocent FOH!😂
Wow.. who cares he didn't have a problem calling that man, a woman beater or saying his children was by his friend🤷🏾♀️he only didn't like it when it was talking about him🙄 boo hoo
13:03 everything after this is a mess. Tell me you know nothing about Kendrick to even say the words that came out your mouth. I’ve been a sub for years to you and you wasn’t always on point lately but this was a hot mess. I rarely comment but your hot takes are so based it’s concerning.
@@shylawton6393 I’ve seen in the comments folks saying this for a while but I was a passive listener to get a morning run down. But this subject which I’m heavily versed in gave me assumptions and options without knowing or stating clear facts that most channels who BEEN covering has already proved. She has her favorites clearly and that’s fine. If you going to report the news then report it fairly with actual evidence. Using AK stream as proof tells me everything I need to know about her research.
What? Here from the West Coast, (The Bay to be exact).🙋🏾♀️ Kendrick Lamar,They Not Like Us really was up. That song was unifying and slapped. He got his honest just dues.
Classic case of Drake dishing it but couldn't take (or expect) Kendrick's response. Drake, you gon' go & cry in the car now?! Stop it. You lost money, reputation, followers, etc bc you appear to be weak & a predator. And even thru all this, you're still rich. Poor baby🙄.
i knew from the thumbnail this video creator is a DRAKAREN FAN your favorite artist just proved Kendrick right he is not one of us we don't run to the police,
9:02 Empressive, you failed to add the clip where the same guy says "Siri, play drop, drop, drop" and Drake's "Family matters" starts, because that technology goes by lyrics recognition, and "Not like us" contains the lyrics "certified loverboy, certified ped...."
What? Mannn, this dude knew exactly what he was getting into. But he thought he was bigger than the label, and his ass got slapped right back down! Remember there was a time where drake thought he was untouchable due to being under Lucian Grainge and him saying whatever drake wants, he gets...that shit went right to his head and thought he could battle anyone...😅😅..0-2 in battles
This is a ten year feud. Let’s not pretend that this started within the last year. I doubt very seriously Kendrick partnered with anybody to get back at Drake. Additionally, what Drake is feeling is the frustration from a culture that was already looking at him side-eyed. Kendrick does not have the power to make an entire culture, pivot just on the merit of a rap beef; because beefing is a part of the game,. However, Kendrick pointed out traceable elements of problematic behavior from Drake and people drew their own conclusions. We’re at the bottom we’re not influenced by big wigs.
From Drake's logic, Megan and Kendrick should sue Drake for defamation of character because didn't he put out an allegation that Kendrick abuse his wife and his wife cheated on him with his manager (idk who but he's works with Kendrick) and claim that Megan lied about being shot.
I believe what Drake is saying concerning the record company. However he started it and, Kindrick ENDED it! Don't start something and then play the victim. Smh
Amazing how drake wanna expose everything now that he’s on the losing end of the stick. I’m sure this has been going on for decades, & I know he has benefited significantly from it.
Seems like Drake is okay with shadiness when it works in HIS favor but gets mad when it doesn't
Yep, I agree. I will say the fact that Drake knows the tactics well leads me to believe he ain’t lying.
That's his white side. Karen
Sounds about white

Couldn’t say it any better 😏
A "whole machine" has been behind Aubrey for years. But when they support Kendrick, it's wrong? As far as bots are considered, who hasn't used them? The same with payola. And calling defamation of character is a joke. UMG has been nothing but good to Aubrey. Nobody feels sorry for him. If anything, this makes people love Kendrick MORE.

She literally don’t do no research smh clearly don’t know what she is talking about!
It don't matter what is wrong with people that why people don't see anything wrong with that
Which is under UMG lol
GNX ALBUM ON REPEAT 🔁 NO SKIPS 🔥🔥🔥🔥
There really are no skips. 🔥
That album is trash.
Add Meet the Grahams to your playlist
I definitely been playing it non stop. The heart pt. 6 on that album is my favorite and luther
I have never ever heard of someone suing a company because a song sold too many singles and is a hit😮😮
At this point, everybody at Young Money got a problem… a lot of them are bitter
Aw wow not him crying about it 😂😂😂
suck d
No the industry hates them cause they the only ones SELLING they the only one with real bargaining power other artist aren’t selling enough to make the time of demands Nicki and drake can
drop this narrative that yall hoes tryna push . If they are gonna defend themselves from the clear agenda thats been against them for years yall are first to pull the words bitter out your asses. Damned if they do damned if they dont
bitter for what? Check the spread sheet; it's nothing to be bitter about. Stop it.
Congratulations Kendrick Lamar performing at the Super Bowl 2025.♥️🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈💯💯
But UMG also let him take shóts at Kendrick didn’t he áççùsê Kendrick of bèàtíñg his wife and all types of other stuff? Didn’t he say he paid somebody to feed that info to Kendrick? So why is he suing over info he leaked? 🤔
Empressive doesn’t know what she’s talking about 😂 I don’t think she even understands how the beef went down.
Drake didn't have a problem when the payola and playlisting would benefit his streams a few years ago. This lawsuit is gonna age like milk.
Drake about to be in jail with Diddy for trying to sue Universal. They will not forget.
Those lyrics are exactly why he's making them prove that shit or pay up 😂😂 smart move
I said the same thing. They will destroy him. Should have just took the L and kept quiet for a while. He in his feelings for real cuz im sure he knows how the game goes. They are slaves to this.
@@KimsLilKorner exactly
Drake didn’t make nobody uncomfortable 😂 EVERYONE INCLUDING BIG FISHES TOLD HIM NOT TO DISS KENDRICK he antagonized that man into shredding him into dust
WE as the people the CULTURE still gone play Not Like Us because NO ONE TRULY IS, LIKE US. ✊🏾
Exactly!
Drake doesn’t have a case, he has a PETITION to get information. Drake isn’t fighting the machine, HE IS THE MACHINE! He’s been benefiting from the Spotify promotions for a decade! This is a tantrum at best and a sore loser losing grip of reality!
Drake is not the MACHINE! he is just a plant and this will not turn out good for him. I will be back here after the outcome of this case.
The same Drake that benefited from the same thing he is excusing UMG of but hold on...Kendrick said f the industry but we all know Drake aka Aubrey Graham is Not Like Us and he is a true industry plant and now he has literally gone bad and shrivelling he wants to try and seem calculated but he isnt as calculated we all can predict his angle. Why for Not Like Us and not the rest of Kendrick Lamar’s music from the very beginning. But ah well people always reveal who they truly are eventually.
With no proof you’re just assuming ✊🏾facts are facts and opinions are opinions
It’s incredible how everyone is missing the point.
Drake is suing because HIS LABEL orchestrated a fraudulent campaign to effect his brand so they can law ball him. It’s clear he’s being lowballed right now. So we are talking hundreds of millions in damages.
If he can prove UMG did this everyone is going to have to back peddle with the bitch move narrative.
Ask yourself what would you do if someone cost you hundreds of millions? Again…. The court doesn’t care about internet narratives. If he can prove it everyone has to stfu about “the culture”. According to the culture when someone plays with your money you murk them. Ain’t shit different here. Drake is actually taking the high road imo. Tbh, the moment that pedo shit came out it was gloves off and certain types would have already reacted violently to that kind of slander and brand meddling. Drake is a nice guy for even letting it get this far imo
Ok, so why didnt you finish the Jeremy Hecht TikTok video? He explained why Not Like Us played when people asked Siri to play "certified loverboy". That was a function on Spotify to recognized lyrics. Certified loverboy is a bar in Not Like Us. Why didnt u play the part were he was testing it on on other lyrics? It showed it wasnt pushing Dot. They have fixed that function since Jeremy pointed it out months ago.
Because she’s a fraud… because he himself debunked that smh
Thank you! Those people didn't name the artist, or whether they wanted to hear the single or album, so Siri pulled up the most recent results. Not like us came up because Kendrick says ”Certified lover of.” I thought we all knew how search engines work by now. I f they asked for Certified Loverboy by Drake, then maybe I would understand.
The guy on AK stream was ALSO debunked by AK himself and people at Spotify so yeah she’s not even properly vetting and researching what she’s sharing in this video and it’s a bad look.
Ummmmm, didn't they allow/encourage Drake to diss folks using rumor mill info without remorse for years?!?!?
Disagree with your statement on uncomfortable. Bloggers who’ve done their homework on the topic show receipts of Drake hooking up with high power men’s ladies. That coupled with him cosplaying American culture for capital & constant attacks on black women like Serena and Rihanna’s relationship, it was a matter of time before it caught up with him.
Drake is the type of " artist" I don't understand why he's become famous and so successful. The basic of the basics.
Is easy for him to cosplay black American culture ad a Canadian Jewish man. Light skin privilege gets one far with the masses. Look at saweetie lol
He makes Citi Trends or Rainbow in a multicultural neighborhood background music
Fr like drake is so ass
How are you exposing something you also benefitted from?
Catchy title but this is absolutely nothing like what Michael Jackson did.
💯💯 thank you!
I thought I was tripping.
Agreed
Or Prince. That's a false equivalence
Drake has benefited more from preferential treatment than any other artist. He needs to be careful with these allegations and making sure his hands are clean.
Drake such a bish .. him rocking them barrettes in his head ain't making it no better 🥴😭
Agreed
He cut his hair. It’s a low cut
One thing about Empressive is she is a Young Money STAN! lol no matter what she gonna defend Drake and Nicki.
She didn't lie. This whole thing is about politics behind the scenes. Republic doesn't want to give Drake what he deserves so what better way than to sabotage him?
@@bohlalenchabeleng1370 She lied cuz this beef is over a decade old and all Dot did was respond to sneak disses, y'all are lame.😂
DMX, Coolio, Kanye, MJ, PRINCE, SAM COOKE, etc iThink Drake thinks his other side will "save" his hips. Some people have to learn the hard way. He's abt to find out what bucking against The System looks like
Didn't he say drop drop drop drop, he asked for this now he cant take the heat. 😂😂
He sure did..
No one should not get it when you are call a child makers it's stick with you the whole life and that's why I don't blame him
LOOOOOLLLL how delusional!! The song went authentically viral. This again is WHY he’s not like us
The way he went full Karen is so crazy. He thinks UMG beefed up the numbers bc UMG beefed up HIS numbers.
Good morning everyone and happy holidays! ❤
same to you
Happy Holidays 😊
Huh? My sister and i drove 45 minutes to a concert and played "not like us" on repeat the entire ride. The song is popular for real!
Kendrick is the new king? What an insult. He’s the best out period.
Drake used the same those bots against Pusha T. What a Biracial calling the Kettle, Kosher lol
Lmaoooo
Cardi b and drake are the only rappers to sue over a diss track
Ew
Who did Cardi sue over a dissemination track?
@@tynikagrant6995I thought the same thing. I wasn't aware she sued over a diss track. She sued over defamation with Tasha K.
Cardi threatened to sue but she didn't lol. I don't think that she even had a case though.
@@tynikagrant6995literally never heard of this. Everyone saying "this is unprecedented in hip-hop" and not a single person saying cardi did this before. Maybe that person is referring to Tasha K as "a diss lawsuit"
Cardi has a beef with BIA. She wanted to sue her. @@tynikagrant6995
I just don’t understand how a label
Promoting a song that benefits their artist and the label is fraudulent. Only he wants to make money? People love the song. He makes his own money from his own music. You don’t “allow” a rap beef, rap beefs happen. This is why he is NOT like us. It’s apart of being a RAPPER!
Remember Angie Martinez was saying to Drake that Kendrick was just trying to do a friendly spar and it’s part of hip hop culture and Drake was all salty and miserable and sensitive? He’s truly pathetic.
This is crazy, this is the same shit they use to do for him. Now he is complaining about this now. Drake was never the biggest rap artist in America, this dude has a machine behind him that was helping him win in every category
The way I see it, Drake ruined his reputation not “not like us”. If what Kendrick said wasn't true, why is Drake so bothered to make a move like this 🤷🏾♀️
Exactly. Why's he going after UMG instead of suing Kendrick Lamar for libel, slander, and defamation? Makes you wonder. He probably doesn't want all those skeletons coming out.
Now Aubrey, was AI used for the promotion of Back to Back?
Why are y’all automatically assuming Drake did the same thing?
I don't understand the comment of "All Kendrick cared about was winning the battle". He was doing what an artist supposed to do in a rap battle.. his job is not to worry about what labels are doing behind the scenes
Ahhhhhh sookie, sookie now!!! Drake in full on "KAREN MODE" is yet another thing that was NOT ON MY BINGO CARD!!! 😮😂😅
Thiissss
It truly is a shame how the industry continuously put artists against either. There's enough room for all to be great. They're not happy if drama isn't involved smh sad.
This started cuz Drake was crying about the Control verse over a decade ago, do your research.😂
@wedontagelikemilktho.7839 I know why this is going down hun. Idk if you realize but there's always some sort of beef between artists that the industryhas initiated for the sake of "entertainment". That's my point I'm making. It's unnecessary tbh. You enjoy your day tho 😘
Not like us was catchy😅
IS*
twas corny
Exactly Drake is really not like us
@@slaveking5631 Drake's whole catalog is Corny.
Michael and Prince not only suffered from their music careers THEY LOST THEIR LIVES BEHIND IT & Enuf Is Enuf . The music industry NEEDS TO GO DOWN ‼️
Drake IS the music industry, he's NOT the damn victim, Whitney should be suing instead of this Canadian, colonizing Karen.😂
Oh please, he is no Prince or MJ. He was happy with the system til it backfired.
UMG did what everyone who was against Kendrick after the beef did, became a FAN. UMG only control distribution for Kendrick, nothing more. Drake and Kendrick don’t even have the same relationship with UMG. I swear some of you content creators need to learn the basics of the subject matter. All Drake did was expose what UMG did for him and thinking it’s what they did for Kendrick
I was confused why the Empressivve is saying Kendrick is signed to TDE. I thought he is independent
Yeah she got some of her information wrong 😂 I noticed , Kendrick don’t give af about the industry, he makes music for us the culture, Drake is just going out sad 😂
@@katlegobeauty8030 exactly everyone knows he is under pgLang. Folks like Jaguar is running around with the same lie as well. It’s like people can’t do a simple Google search.
@@finegoddess thank you. That’s what annoying because you know not everyone is following the mess but if their only news is from her they will be so wrong and misinformed.
You’re overthinking this and saying a bunch of conjecture. They’ve been beefing for a decade. How did UMG “allow” Kendrick to come at Drake? The song is popular for a reason. You can’t fake the culture
Kendrick didn’t tell Drake to get personal.
All he said was “it’s just big ME!”
Then Drake became unhinged and mentioned people’s families and this is what he got. 🤷🏾♀️
Biggie and Tupac had the biggest beef in rap history and yet not one of them sued the other yet drake is not like them at all....
I didnt know Not Like Us even needed bots, I couldn’t stop playing the song and everyone I know loved the song it was played in night clubs, cookouts all summer.
It doesn't, Drake is just jealous.😂
So I guess Drake forgot all of the times that Birdman double dipped into the album sales for his album...
They didn’t have to use bots to boost that song, I’ve personally streamed it about 1,000 times myself.
No you didn't.
@ yes I did. Streamed it 4 times yesterday and it’s been out since May!
Drake got several warnings before not like us. In various songs. He started and taunted Kendrick in Taylor made. And Kendrick gave him soft taps in euphoria. Then Drake took the bait and got obliterated and now he’s mad. I didn’t even understand why he would want to go to war with Kendrick when they’re not even the same lyrically.
He thought his popularity would see him through 😂😂😂 like, " There's no way ppl like kendrick more over me.. I always win"
@ he’s too old to not realize that this is not a popularity race 😂
Drake benefited from some of the same business practices that he's accusing UMG of doing for Kendrick imo. Ỷears ago Spotify had to issue refunds to customers who complained about the Drake spam đuring the release of his Scorpion album. Plus some of the things displayed in this video were already debunked. Siri also plays Drake songs when you say things like "Drop, drop." You say lyrics from a song it takes you to the song. Plus Akademics even acknowledged that the Streams for Not Like Us were actually real after talking to someone at Spotify. Joe in that same clip shown said that Drake uses bots too via UMG etc. The clips were purposely cut short to favor one side clearly 🤷🏾♀️.
J Cole chose peace🎉
That's why he was being passive aggressive on Port Antonio right? That's why he chose to feature Drake on FPS and name Kdot's name, Cole ain't innocent FOH!😂
He only apologized cuz Schoolboy Q told him to and low-key sneakdissing with the bots comments while acting like he's Hollier than thou.
Wow.. who cares he didn't have a problem calling that man, a woman beater or saying his children was by his friend🤷🏾♀️he only didn't like it when it was talking about him🙄 boo hoo
Not you 🧢🧢 for Drake😂😂 make sure you tell how he benefited from the same thing 😂
Did you listen to the whole video? She said drake didn’t make a good move
OMG at 12:09 I wanna cry! Just seeing this picture makes me emotional! Prince and the King of Pop will be forever missed!
I teared up too, often imitated, never duplicated
😢me too! Awww!
Drakkkkkeeeeeeesha (khia’s voice) 😂
13:03 everything after this is a mess. Tell me you know nothing about Kendrick to even say the words that came out your mouth. I’ve been a sub for years to you and you wasn’t always on point lately but this was a hot mess. I rarely comment but your hot takes are so based it’s concerning.
Totally agree. Lately, this channel’s views been very one-sided. I noticed it first with Nicki Minaj.
@@shylawton6393 I’ve seen in the comments folks saying this for a while but I was a passive listener to get a morning run down. But this subject which I’m heavily versed in gave me assumptions and options without knowing or stating clear facts that most channels who BEEN covering has already proved. She has her favorites clearly and that’s fine. If you going to report the news then report it fairly with actual evidence. Using AK stream as proof tells me everything I need to know about her research.
Drake has been stealing from other Artists for years. Karma
Exactly
The thing is....kenny didn't lie...
What? Here from the West Coast, (The Bay to be exact).🙋🏾♀️ Kendrick Lamar,They Not Like Us really was up. That song was unifying and slapped. He got his honest just dues.
Love that you are the only one unbiased while covering the story.
You nuts af
Drake is so childish. I don't know who is worse. Him or Lisa Rinna
Classic case of Drake dishing it but couldn't take (or expect) Kendrick's response. Drake, you gon' go & cry in the car now?! Stop it. You lost money, reputation, followers, etc bc you appear to be weak & a predator. And even thru all this, you're still rich. Poor baby🙄.
i knew from the thumbnail this video creator is a DRAKAREN FAN your favorite artist just proved Kendrick right he is not one of us we don't run to the police,
9:02 Empressive, you failed to add the clip where the same guy says "Siri, play drop, drop, drop" and Drake's "Family matters" starts, because that technology goes by lyrics recognition, and "Not like us" contains the lyrics "certified loverboy, certified ped...."
Drake don’t be the next Diddy learn brother
He deserves the same fate, FOH with the sympathy for weirdos.
Great analysis...!!!
That's why I luv your channel..
Keep going gal..
❤
What? Mannn, this dude knew exactly what he was getting into. But he thought he was bigger than the label, and his ass got slapped right back down!
Remember there was a time where drake thought he was untouchable due to being under Lucian Grainge and him saying whatever drake wants, he gets...that shit went right to his head and thought he could battle anyone...😅😅..0-2 in battles
This is a ten year feud. Let’s not pretend that this started within the last year. I doubt very seriously Kendrick partnered with anybody to get back at Drake.
Additionally, what Drake is feeling is the frustration from a culture that was already looking at him side-eyed. Kendrick does not have the power to make an entire culture, pivot just on the merit of a rap beef; because beefing is a part of the game,. However, Kendrick pointed out traceable elements of problematic behavior from Drake and people drew their own conclusions. We’re at the bottom we’re not influenced by big wigs.
Kendrick doesn’t have to do anything but keep being Kendrick.
From Drake's logic, Megan and Kendrick should sue Drake for defamation of character because didn't he put out an allegation that Kendrick abuse his wife and his wife cheated on him with his manager (idk who but he's works with Kendrick) and claim that Megan lied about being shot.
I believe what Drake is saying concerning the record company. However he started it and, Kindrick ENDED it! Don't start something and then play the victim. Smh
Amazing how drake wanna expose everything now that he’s on the losing end of the stick. I’m sure this has been going on for decades, & I know he has benefited significantly from it.
