this is legit my favorite reaction to this track, 6 min into the video. Your passion for hip hop is reflected in how you dissect these lyrics. Seriously, that first verse is a lyrical masterclass from Kendrick. Some inspirational shit. "There's opportunity when living with loss. I discover myself when I fall short," is going to be a quote I recite to myself whenever I hit a roadblock in my life. Kendrick is a POET
The sample is from an Al Green song that Drake's uncle (Dad's brother) played bass on. Hence why it is very bass forward in the actual instrumental. And it was produced by Taylor Swifts personal producer who you can imagine is extremely busy but made time to produce it so it's technically "Taylor Made". Layers... 🧅
Bro it goes even deeper, the song is also about love Kendrick even was sayin bro this could’ve been love, this could’ve been a simple exhibition but you made it war lol shit hits different
That first verse is some of the best rapping i heard in a long ass time. Shit gave me chills fr. The conversation he had with god damn near made me tear up cuz i felt that shit
you’re def not reaching about him having a convo with God…this one gave me full body chills. i know everybody always says this but i actually have never run to a video so fast. thanks for being the best at this. ❤️
It is Al Green, Drake's uncle played the guitar for that sample and Taylor Swifts producer is credited on this track, its a direct layered response to taylor made
1 It was 06:16 AM when he dropped. 2 6/16 ~ Pacs birthday 3 6/16 is canada’s father’s day 4 The record was co produced by Taylor Swifts producer, so it’s basically Taylor Made… 5 Euphoria (the show Drake produced), was released to HBO on 6/16 Kendrick is a mastermind
holy shit. This may be a GIANT reach, but hear me out...if you listen to that al green sample, especially as the beat fades out, it really sounds like it's saying "boi-1da hey....boi 1da hey..." Boi-1da is literally OVO's in house producer. Again, forgive me for the possible reach, but if thats part of it, thats crazy. Is kendrick saying he's one of the leaks in his camp? I dunno man, but this is fun.
You were doing so well catching the Al Green flip, Tops first name, the brooklyn pizza call back and then came with does the soul sample mean he's snatching souls 😂
I like the way you translate dots lyrics to those who don’t know all the wordy shit we do. And I love that you understand it all. Refreshing for reaction vids. Kendrick is toooo deep
Your my favorite Reactor of this entire beef cause I can tell your a real life Hip Hop Junkie like myself btw “KTW” = KILL TO WIN! Basically Kendrick is saying I’m willing to go to further lengths to take this generations Hip Hop Crown!😉🤝🏽🐐🎤🔥
BOI1DA is the mole the sample is saying “Boy Wonder” over and over, Kendrick ain’t let that repeat at the end for no reason. BOI1DA just produced push ups btw
& you're 1000000% right about him sounding like he's talking to God. starts with gratitude for his lifestyle then "God who am i if i don't go to war" like he's saying "i'm sorry but i'm only human and you might not like what i'm about to say" hahah
Y’all not peeping it. It’s a diss about moles in his camp. “Fuck a Phantom, I buy Yachts when I catch a fever” Your ghostwriter Yachty? I bought him. GG Aubrey it’s over
He really was washing his hands and praying before he got them dirty again 🤣You be picking apart this bars on first listen like its nothing. Keeping doing your thing G!
Drake was trying to get Kash Doll out of her contract and date her but couldn't...and she dropped a song today at 12:00am so the mention got her blowing up rn so kdot helped her more by just saying her name today crazy. 6:16 Tupac birthday, Canadian Fathers day, pointing out the leaks in his camp, The MMG OJ gloves 👿 on the day of Nicole Simpsons burial and it look like the gloves is covering up something and he dropped the second diss on IG like Drake did Taylor made to a beat made by Taylor Swifts producer and Mike jack died alone and the Al green sample is important because Al (capital A lowercase L) looks like it reads ai (capital a capital i; AI) which drake used on his second diss...nasty work
He did say in euphoria that he knew shit about people that would make Gunna look like a Saint! We all just assumed he meant snitching to the police, but do you think this could be what he was actually talking about 😶
I think the Zach B shit means Drake has been having some people use bots to make accounts to big him up and downplay Kendrick’s response. Perception being reality and whatnot
Could be a reach but Boi-1da could be the leak based on the sample chops saying his name. He’s worked with Pusha, Drake, and Kendrick but mostly with Drake. The ties to Kendrick could be through him but then again, this could be a reach
Makes me wonder if Kendrick really does know something or he’s trying to play mind games and have Drake questioning everybody and panicking like he actually has snakes in the grass. Either way it’s tactical.
im in awe of your interpretations. it's the art (& sport!) like this that makes me want to dissect too. i enjoyed hearing your take--especially the soul music pointing at the fact that these two are battling spiritually.
You also missed out about him mentioning Kash Doll saying that she wasn’t the leak. probably accused her of shit and he was like she wasn’t even the leak
Not every diss track needs to have an aggressive “Game” type energy. This calm, godfather like approach complements Euphoria perfectly
i’ve seen this comment multiple times. and i’m gonna like it each time
I concur.
He's talking to lil homie, lil homie will learn through love and hate
Thank you! He’s talking to this man like his lil homie like a child 😅
Facts. And to shit on an Al Green sample is blasphemous

4:03 aged well, he was literally saying a short prayer before he dropped meet the grahams
"Back to back I like that record. Imma get back to that for the record"
Bro didn't just cook, he meal prepping 💀
Meal prepping Ong 😭😭

Yes! Your ears are good. The soul sample is Al Green. Keep going, young man! Love the bar breakdowns.
And yes on the Loaded Lux! 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
When he's referencing Mike at the end. Remember Michael Jackson died alone In his home paranoid of people closest to him
Starting the verse off with “Off-white Sunseeker at the Marina” is CRAZY
layers is crazy 😂
Right!? None of these young rap "fans" catching any of this, they too surface and generally dumb.
that 21 savage reference though😤, 20 of them want to as a casualty, and 1 of them is next to you
Oh!!!😮😂😂😂
Wow that went over my head my gosh 👀👀 😧😧
Wooo chile!!! Too much KDot!!!
Maaaaaaddddddd
I viewed that more as a 20v1 reflip. He refliped from it’s a 1v20 to it’s a 20v1 and it’s all niggas in yo circle.
you’re def not reaching about him having a convo with God…this one gave me full body chills. i know everybody always says this but i actually have never run to a video so fast. thanks for being the best at this. ❤️
I appreciate your support greatly! Thank you for the kind words fr 🙏🏽
Literally like King 👑 David
That Mole in your camp shit so genius even if he completely bluffing you gotta think about it
“ Ask yourself what would Mike do?” Man in the mirror 🔥😭😭
Drake already heard it
Mike was also paranoid of his whole camp even his doctor. Even tho mike did have reason to be, same for drake
OR he’s saying.. check your circle and “Beat It.” Remember how Mike died?
You're not alone
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
He levitating and like you said, talking to God. It’s the deadliest warning shot/intermission diss track. He got a 3rd one that’s gone cremate em
He said “off white(Drake mixed skin) sun seeker(son seeker) in a Marina.
Sun seeker about 3 other meanings
that Al Green sample.😮💨🔥
It’s so good.
Name?

With Drake uncle on guitar more shots at his "from the bottom" facade
Aye dog I gotta comment twice, you know what you talkin about for real. Knowin the Bible, Raphael the artist, all types of shit man.
Been through a lot bro. I always say I’ve lived 5-6 lives in my 31 years on Earth. I’m grateful to be learned in a lot of areas.
@@i-9ine5ive facts
Not only is he saying a 21 savage is a leak, he also basically said Yachty is a leak. “I like to buy yachts when I get the fever”
Wow now THAT went over my head damn

Ant is Kendrick’s manager. Drake was harassing him on his IG story.
Yeah I ended up remembering that after the video. I knew I was along the lines though.
It is Al Green, Drake's uncle played the guitar for that sample and Taylor Swifts producer is credited on this track, its a direct layered response to taylor made
1 It was 06:16 AM when he dropped.
2 6/16 ~ Pacs birthday
3 6/16 is canada’s father’s day
4 The record was co produced by Taylor Swifts producer, so it’s basically Taylor Made…
5 Euphoria (the show Drake produced), was released to HBO on 6/16
Kendrick is a mastermind
Dots first show in Toronto, and the first time he met Drake was on 6/16 😭
And Proverbs 6:16 😭🔥 Dot crazy
And Corinthians 6:16 🔥🤯 layers 🧅🥋
Luke 6:16, talking about betrayal and traitors.
Kendrick paints pictures in dimensions Drake doesn’t touch
Bro you really the greatest at this no 🧢
I’m thankful for your words bro!
The way he prayed to Elohim then Cooked with superb deep layerd flavor, this here is hip-hop at its finest!
Ngl this is off topic but this is my fav music reactor on youtube. Bro catches all the bars.
Facts. He needs more recognition
Its frustrating watching shit fly over everybody else heads. Especially Ak lol he stays googling shit
Facts
I just commented this. He really catches and translates it all. Underrated fr
you not reaching on the God angle, Kendrick been heavy on it
Facts I was finna say that’s what I was thinking listening to it

Holy shit🤣
And Euphoria the show premiered on 6/16 😭
This is some final boss of rap type shit 😮 🤣😤🐐
Best breakdown for this song so far!
I like the way you translate dots lyrics to those who don’t know all the wordy shit we do. And I love that you understand it all. Refreshing for reaction vids. Kendrick is toooo deep
I think Drake might wanna stay in the house, and call a truce 😂😂😂😂
Literally!!!! he shouldn’t even respond
He gone respond fasho Kendrick just on his art of war shit
Headshots for the year he better walk around like daftpunk outside now.

Drake’s uncle played the guitar for Al Green
You had to inform people that Al Green is black?? lol bruh chill
No intro straight to the point 💪🏾💯
BOI1DA is the mole the sample is saying “Boy Wonder” over and over, Kendrick ain’t let that repeat at the end for no reason. BOI1DA just produced push ups btw
KDot out here with the Art Of War right here!! This track plus Euphoria is a masterclass in how to make what you’re saying mean so much more!!
& you're 1000000% right about him sounding like he's talking to God. starts with gratitude for his lifestyle then "God who am i if i don't go to war" like he's saying "i'm sorry but i'm only human and you might not like what i'm about to say" hahah
He basically told Drake I know you put money out there for info and got no receipts. But Kendrick got leaks from your camp.
Its Al Green, good ear
I could be reaching but Kanye used to do a lot of the old samples?!?!😮 This is definitely Al Green!
@@crystalgreen7789not reaching. Kanye used MANY samples in the beginning of his career
Y’all not peeping it. It’s a diss about moles in his camp. “Fuck a Phantom, I buy Yachts when I catch a fever” Your ghostwriter Yachty? I bought him. GG Aubrey it’s over

Just the surface too 🔥
This is genius. I bet drake was geared up to respond and before he can kendrick hits him with a wave of paranoia.
Yep now Drake gotta re write what he was about to drop
@@jaybishop8068re write? 😂
@@FastMoneyyy LOOOL
he got the team working overtime
@@94nolobut can he even trust the team now? 😂
“Wires in your circle should puzzle you” = wire tap or snitches = informant. 👀
He did say in euphoria that he knew shit about people that would make Gunna look like a Saint! We all just assumed he meant snitching to the police, but do you think this could be what he was actually talking about 😶
4:02 frrr hiphop going crazy rn history is happening right in front of our eyes
Back to back i like that record imma get back to that 🤣🔥
you have a knack for picking up literary devices and references. one of the best on YT. you should write if you don’t already.
you dope bro fr fr
I appreciate you bro. That means a lot fr 🙏🏽
I seen someone said Drake uncle was the guitarist for this sample because he played Guitar for Al Green
3 of Drake’s uncles are credited on that song 😂😂😂
The song cool but damn I need this instrumental on a 10 hour loop
OnG
The weeknd said sum bout „leaks in their operation“ too
I really like your ability to break down lyrics and meanings. A lot of these reactions don't know what they are talking about.
the sample sounds like "Boy wonder" -> "boi-1da", maybe a stretch, but alluding to a leak in drakes camp
"Who am I if I don't go to war" is a nod to Chapter 1 of The Bhagavad Gita. Kendrick is well read for real.
I think the Zach B shit means Drake has been having some people use bots to make accounts to big him up and downplay Kendrick’s response. Perception being reality and whatnot
Mike gonna look at the man in the mirror 🔥😮💨
Ace and the Mallory bros are the only ones i be waiting on to drop these reactions
Facts bro
Gotta check out Knox Hill
Did Mallory bros drop?
@@CaliConcreteKnox be on it frfr💯💯 love his breakdowns
I think the Al green sample is just another way for kendrick to show that he is black culture.
This is like... I ain't a killa but don’t push me!!💀
Finally somebody that catches the bars
Its evident how much you love the music and the art. That's why I always love your reactions.
Could be a reach but Boi-1da could be the leak based on the sample chops saying his name. He’s worked with Pusha, Drake, and Kendrick but mostly with Drake. The ties to Kendrick could be through him but then again, this could be a reach
I listened to alot of reactions & I can say yours was by far the most detailed. I caught some jewels from you. Much appreciated.
The only reaction I was waiting on fr 🎉
Makes me wonder if Kendrick really does know something or he’s trying to play mind games and have Drake questioning everybody and panicking like he actually has snakes in the grass. Either way it’s tactical.
you one of the best reactors to rap, catching a lot of things
This is the best reaction I seen. You know real music ❤ thank you for your perspective 💯💯💯💯
I love the big brother approach Dot is going for in this diss. He said you got disgruntled employees, fix who you are before coming at me.
You will forever be my fave! You dissect everything!❤ keep growing and going!
🔥🔥🔥🔥Great response
Your in real time breakdown is impressive bro. This is my favorite kinda rap/music content.
I love the way you break it down. Thanks!
Your breakdown is truly right on point ❤
love you ace🖤

im in awe of your interpretations. it's the art (& sport!) like this that makes me want to dissect too. i enjoyed hearing your take--especially the soul music pointing at the fact that these two are battling spiritually.
I’ve listened to about 30 of these since Euphoria dropped and your take was so fresh!! This was a great analysis!!! 🎉
First reaction I’ve seen from you man, but your love of hip hop comes off so purely!
