That Bars shirt
Raises the bar
drake from the video scorpion
Hey you ever reacted to Illmatic.
The lyricsm on that joint unmatched especially on "N.Y. State of mind"
Try that one
Is it just me or does the family shot also a shot at drake with the daughter in it an also the son playing with a basketball an the same colour hair as drake soon I might be reaching but I can't help but think it
A dual Slim Shady reaction would be dope. Something like "If I Had..." & "No One's Iller". Maybe "Bad Meets Evil" & "Welcome 2 Hell". Definitely Track 12 of Devil Without a Cause... just a few suggestions
Kendrick has taught me that I have never hated anyone properly
Indeeeeeddddd! Yessss!! 🎯💯‼️
Underrated comment
😂😂😂😂😂
For real tho🥳
Chuurch!
It’s cause we actually have ❤❤❤
Adding more to the breakdown as I watch a second time: the “Not Like Us” mirroring Drake’s “Honestly Nevermind” font. Whitney wearing a WIFE BEATER while dancing on Drake’s grave. Honestly this video is DIABOLICAL 💀🤣🔥
If you upload a 2nd video with a more thorough breakdown of all the references you can find, I WILL watch it.
A murder 😭
I am ready to watch it again
"how many stock do i have" is played with so many container at the background tho 💀💀
After annihilating drake he still doing more damage with this video is just too evil 😭🙏🏽
fun fact drake posted an instagram story saying that he was betting 100k on Canada beating Argentina, when Argentina won they posted a picture of the Argentinian team celebrating with "Not like us" as there song of choice
Bro that’s hilarious 😂
When the US olympic basketball team played Canada in an exhibition match they played "Not Like Us" over the player intros and then played it again after they won.
@@markcarey67 damn!
Florida Panthers did the same thing at their Stanley Cup celebration for beating the Edmonton Oilers (Canadian team), after Drake bet 500k for Edmonton to win the cup
Bro no way thay funny at this point drake needs to retire@@markcarey67
"I'm teaching my children how to dance.... On your grave" took me TF out!!!!
Man I died when he said that😂
😂😂😂
I swear this song gains more energy each time I hear it. Normally I would’ve been tired of the song by now, but the momentum behind it cannot be stopped. This isn’t a victory lap, it’s a victory tour cross country.
Exactly that 😂
Top song in South Africa and reached top 20 in Australia, Canada, and countries across Europe.
worldwide victory tour
Right? I thought the same thing! ❤
Kendrick snagged the Gem of Cyttorak and has gone full Juggernaut #unstoppable
Whitney getting her diss bars off by dancing to that specific part of the song is CRAZY WORK!!!!!!!!! 🤣😭🤣
Wearing a wifebeater too lmfao
Was it intentional that she was dancing in a tank top aka wife beater 😂
RIP, Drake. There went his whole angle.
In a wife beater too
..wearing a wife beater too 😂😂😂
Kendrick won button 🏅
Bro the disses been done since drake already dropped the heart part 6. You guys are dragging it at the point. Stop riding kendrick fr.
@@sAmauri37🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️🤦🏼♂️
@@sAmauri37Wasnt Drake going after Meek Mills for much time after their beef? To be fair, you might be too young to remember that beef.
@@sAmauri37tf you talking about. Drake songs get dragged if not more than this song. Plus if drake had the hit he’d be going on a world tour with it so shit up. Stop crying drake asked for it “drop drop drop”
@@sAmauri37If you are successful in convincing 50 Cent to stop hating on Ja Rule we will also stop.
The "You're late" line by Tommy the Clown references Kendrick showing up late to the rap battle and the video shoot, dropping new music! The intro was a triple entendre!😂
😂damn didn't catch that
@@justjewellent You're slow😂😂😂❤
@MsBoujeeGisele 😂you didn't catch that right off either don't play😂
I thought I read somewhere that dead people never show up on time.
Man man's moving at his own pace
This song didn't just unite Compton. It united all of America. 🎉🎉
I live in Vancouver and everyone I know loves it too. lol.
That's dope
Facts
Hello South Africa here we back K Dot.
Except for the delusional Drake 🥩🏍️
That image of the owl in the cage cowering at the sight of Kendrick? This is why you don't mock short nerds. Lord have mercy.
😂😂😂
So you should mock tall nerds? Ok
@@drjonesey5😂
😂😂😂😂😂 I wish u knew how much I enjoy your comment at a personal level
@@drjonesey5tf we do bro 😭
The woman dancing in Tams with Mustard and Dot is Storm Debarge. She is a known dancer who choreographed the Super Bowl Half Time performance for Dr. Dre (which also featured Kendrick and Eminem). She was also brought up under the Tommy the Clown dance academy when she was younger.
Thanks for this. ❤
Curtis King on YT started that rumor she is not related to El Debarge. He spoke about it in a live. She corrected him.
@@BrittneysBlessed thanks for the info! I was wondering who she was!
🫡
Nice Info
He also filmed the crowd that specific way because Drake did something very similar in God’s Plan and made it seem like he was really giving back to the community. So he filmed the same way to expose him and all his pretending. “God plan is to show ya the liar.” Genius Kendrick, genius.
Thought about God's plan too.
Next level
yes thank you
That scene with Whitney was *chef’s kiss*
The highlight of the video.
No words needed. Drake’s disses now hold absolutely no weight
Facts
Whitney feels like she's pissed about what Drake said about her and she's like, "Baby, put me on." 😂😂😂
Tupac : "Fuck Bad boy!"
Kendrick Lamar : "Fuck Ovho!"
"Put the wrong label on me, I'ma get 'em dropped, ayy"
this reminds of when NLU first came out and someone did an ai edit with tupac's voice on some of the NLU bars.
Sweet chin music and i wont pass the AUX AYYY!
2Pac - Hit 'Em Up "Any of you niggas from New York that wanna bring it, bring it but we ain't singin', we bringin' drama, f*ck you and your motherf**kin' momma"
Kendrick Lamar - Not Like Us "The industry can hate me, f*ck 'em all and they momma"
2Pac - Hit 'Em Up "Any of you n**gas from New York that wanna bring it, bring it but we ain't singin', we bringin' drama, f**k you and your motherf**kin' momma"
Kendrick Lamar - Not Like Us "The industry can hate me, f**k 'em all and they momma"
Sweet chin music…..
Girl passing the Bible to Dot. Rocking the blue & Red flag, tied together was hella symbolic
I noticed that almost all of the dancers in that part had the tied flags around the waist. Plus, the letters making up "Not Like Us" on their outfits were half red and half blue.
The symbolism of what Tommy the Clown (& the song itself) represents - unity in LA - is really powerful.
DeRoze was there AND dressed like Debo from Friday. And Whitney was wearing a wife-beater. Next level diabolical!!!! Drake better go be big in Japan or somewhere...
even japan dissin him w the bbl drizzy beat 😭
@@cocoochwada9371 I seen multiple comments saying Japan had it on in their clubs
"Deebo, any rap 🥷 he a free throw"
Japan was clowning Drake too. He's only got China left now lmfao
I BEEN LOOKING FOR SOMEONE ELSE TO SAY DeROZ WAS DRESSED LIKE DEEBO&THE WIFE BEATER ON HIS LADY!🙋🏾♀️🎯💯💯🤌🏾👏🏾
Kendrick dug this man up, spit on his corpse, reburied him, and had the culture dance on his grave AGAIN😂😂😂😂😂 DIABOLICAL
Nobody's said anything about Kendrick being in the crowd like Where's Waldo 😅😅😅🔥🔥🔥
He blended in so well cause he is the culture✊🏽✊🏽
Notice I said ‘WE’ I’m what the culture feelin
Say it with ya chest KDot we luv you! We ridin til the wheels fall off big homie
It’s KDot for life! Periodttt
Shipping Containers and Kendrick is dressed like an investigator
🔎🚸🔍
I couldn't figure out why he was suited up by them containers 🤯
If he put girls dancing in there it would've been obvious 🤭 gotta make the "pacified" think metaphors a bit🤭🤭🤭
I didn't catch that 😂😂
That gave me vibes too. Kendrick never wears a suit. And those containers look sus. Trafficking maybe?
My take was…He in a suit= serious business, he is not playing around with allegations
12:46 also, Whitney is wearing a wife beater. If this was anyone else’s music video I would call it a coincidence but it’s Kendricks so it’s definitely not a coincidence
It absolutely isn't a coincidence. This was planned to the second.
Also did you notice how many push ups he did at the start and where he stopped at
@@ThefessLess than 18...😅
What's a wife beater? Sorry English isn't my first language
THANK you for catching that ; literally EVERYONE misses that ...........including Knox ; He a Fan he a fan he a Fan
1. Owls are predators. (We hate predators) - 17 pushups - girls under 18 years old, Drake's prey.
2. Owls are nocturnal. Believe it or not 69% are active at night out of 250 species. (69 God, prey at night percentage)
3. Owls will feed on each other. (Ovo people have given KDot info)
4. Owls attack prey mostly at night when prey are at their weakest. (Ovo preying on young guys like Diddy and RKelly+ more)
5. The Northern Sotted Owl is endangered in British Columbia. (KDot is showing how Drake is fading away)
6. Owls caught in the daytime are easy to tame. (KDot brought things to light for us)
The last shot of the owl reminds me of Taylor Swift's video "Look What You Made Me Do" when he stole the keys to her castle and locked her out. Is this a shout out to TSwift? Pac's ring!
Predators need to caged/jailed/tamed.
Kendrick Lamar in that last frame shot of that owl in a cage is an entire essay on how to bury your enemy within seconds.
what a breakdown
Miiiiiiight be a little bit of a reach but who even knows at this point
Kendrick puts entendres in everything
Great breakdown.
The amount of bread crumbs KDot put into this video is crazyyyyy!!
I'm a KDot stan and i think this is a reach but I enjoyed reading it 😂
LA-specific disses
- filmed in locations from Superbowl 22 set
- ❤️💙 theme
- TDE in front of Nickerson Gardens project, site of famous truce
- F-A-N chant in front of COURTHOUSE
11:55 she KILLED IT. With the most genuine and beautiful smile on her face. In his grandmother’s living room. Just hanging out with her man and the kids. ❤
It was checkmate when Kendrick called Drake a colonizer and dropped the video on July 4th 😂 - Independence Day
Talk about perfect timing😂
Album may drop emancipation day .
Not to mention the pop up show happening on Juneteenth! Kendrick brought all the smoke and Gemini energy! 😅😂
That was disrespectful asf 😂
@@theculturedgentleman3699 fr tho 😂😂 he really don't fck with Drake😂
@@JT-The1 😂😂 this guy really is fucked up
From the owls perspective it’s not in the cage but from Kendrick’s perspective it’s locked up and vulnerable
Ooooh…good observation 😊
I interrupted it similar but different. At the end of the video, (bcuz Kendrick is very deep and symbolic) I took this as Maya Angelou's book, I know why the caged bird sings! Kendrick looking at the owl (Drake) caged referencing to sing..but not rap
@@Epicurious_Me- I don’t know - that owl had a cage all around it and certainly looked defeated.
🔥🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯💯
also the owl is sitting on golden bar but is trapped inside a black cage
Whitney getting her diss bars off by dancing to that specific part of the song is CRAZY WORK!!!!!!!!!
Wearing a wife beater 😂😂😂
bro. no way you copied a comment word by fucking word.
@@Lxthargy the plagiarism is CRAZY WORK!!!!!!!!!!
My favourite symbolism from the video is how the dancers at the beginning were all wearing belts made up of red and blue bandanas tied together. It's such a big indicator of the impact both Kendrick's side of the beef and specifically the Pop Out concert have had.
Kendrick is The Goat because he never responded “outside” of rap on social media, he used his concert and video was his VISUAL(verbal) response!!! And, the fans are piecing it together so he’s keeping us ENGAGED🔥🔥🔥
"Show, don't tell" for his rebuttal, and The Art of War, played out across the medium of a rap beef
"Tell me your cheesin fam, we can do this right now on the camera crodie"
He said he doesn't know how to grab apps😂😂😂
Diabolical genius KDot the mastermind playin chess not checkers
#Checkmate
Interesting how the owl doesn't see the cage but see Kendrick. Then from Kendrick 's perspective, the owl is caged 😂
You are the winner.
Bird thinks it’s free to attack but not actually
it's also a light colored owl sitting on a golden bar in a black cage
@@BuDDaH1977 that's deep brother!
I’ve watched so many videos and this is the first mentioned I’ve seen of this and such a good call out! Kendrick is brilliant
The ending was the final nail in the coffin, the owl caged up was mad disrespectful and I'm here for it!
Not only was it caged up, it looked scared of Kendrick, like it was kneeling.. animal cruelty 😂☠️
Sad and look frail!! Ozempic Very Own
A predator behind bars
White owl caged behind black bars. Yup, that extra layer
It really was😂😂😂😂😂
As someone who has worked in costumes, it's a chef's kiss that they have the Blue Jay's logo in the video (because of the trademark, they have to get permission prior).
I love the use of the piñata. I can't help but feel that's a nod to his Cali Latino brethren.
The hat he's wearing with the leather jacket was made by our brown kin folks. Look it up. Kendrick is a real one fr fr
The owl in the cage is also saying Drake's trapped by his choices and limited his life. Kendrick is on the outside of all that.
@@NatJo1 Yes, and that he's trapped by Kendrick's BARS!
i think kendrick was saying is that predators should be locked up, cuz owls are predators, then that's why he locked the owl, shit was funnt asf 😂
I agree but I also took it as Kendrick telling Drake that he owns him.
only thing a bird does in a cage is sing, low-key another shot at drake
Facts, so many layers with the owl. It's also a light brown one instead of any random which are mostly dark or normal brown@@jupiterjesus
Leave these quiet family men alone, man. Lesson learned.
I don't know who you are, I don't know what you want. If you are looking for ransom, I can tell you I don't have money, but what I do have are a very particular set of skills, skills I have acquired over a very long career, skills that make me a nightmare for people like you
Listen, Whitney was the one he disrespected. No man will stand for that…and Kendrick went ALL in
@@whoiam06 w reference
@@syxph3r It's from the movie Taken starring Liam Neeson. @whoami06 Great f**king reference! This fits the vibe of the song so perfectly. Like, "you mess with my family, with those I love, and I will absolutely destroy you and everything you ever thought you stood for." Same level of thoroughness in dismantling an enemy.
@@whoiam06Taken...omg a video made in that manner would've been epic ! 😅
Knox - when you asked about the containers, what is drake hiding. Then you made the connection to human trafficking. My mouth dropped. (If you honestly know, then you know)
You are paying close attention. And I appreciate that so damn much.
LIGHT BULB MOMENT💡 Tupac did an interview saying, "I MAY NOT CHANGE THE WORLD, BUT I GUARANTEE I'LL SPARK THE BRAIN THAT DOES" LET'S GOOOOOO KDOT!!!! ❤❤❤
“Devil is a lie” as he daps up Dave free goes crazyyyy
The fact Not Like Us is played at sporting events still gets me dying
My 12 year old travel baseball team took the field in their last tournament last week and ran out to Not Like Us, the other parents were shook 😂😂😂
@@CoachBurkhalter😭🤣
The Kendrick and family scene solidified the difference between him and Drake:
Kendrick loves his family, Drake buries them away.
And sings about women like they’re trash
Yeah but Kendrick forgot that his black ass is not native to America, he better be humble and sit down with that colonizer shit 😂
Or parades them for cookie points smh
His dad should ask for more paper 👀
@@v.v.9.9.and MORE paper
also a reference to when drake said that he's a wife beater, so there you go, whitney wearing a wife beater/tank top, and also smiling while dancing with kdot
The owl being free when shown it's zoomed in perspective, then shown that it was actually caged when switch to KDot's wide shot perspective is such a cool detail.
Agreed I said this on another reaction vid.
From the owls perspective his naively THINKS he is free
But from KDots perspective he is a predator and is right where he SHOULD be which is locked up! Diabolical ah KDot the genius that you are ‼️💯🎯
“ drake is gonna be banned from playgrounds after this “ CRAZY BUT SO TRUE IM DYING
Also the silence of the owl in the cage is like Drake being alone in a mansion with material things but without real relationships or culture. And then it cuts back to Kendrick in a sea of people in the neighborhood he’s from. Juxtaposition is powerful.
Man that’s a great catch!
That's dope
FACTSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
When you first see the owl there is no cage, then the camera turns to Kendrick's point of view and there's the cage. So the owl cannot see the bars. Both that Drake cannot see the cage he's in, and he can't even see (understand) the bars Kendrick is putting down.
@@s.d.schultz169 wow true!!
The Hop Scotch at A-Minor, and Whitney in a wife beater...then hittin the F**k out of the C-Walk took me down. Just diabolical.
It was a b walk. But she was going stupid.
B walk
BLood walk *
17 push-ups and stopping at 18 is crazy work
When he stopped & did one more Its almost as if he was signaling "MAYBE 18"... 🤣😭😭
Yooooo that’s crazy!!!! Bro! The thought involved to set everything up is crazy
He did 17 push ups (and a half) because ole BBl Drizzy don’t rock with nothin over 18 it’s 17 & under for Ozempic’s Very Own
1:32 *someone said on his jacket there’s a date August 8, 2024. Maybe that’s a hint and it would explain why he’s wearing leather in the middle of freaking summer in Los Angeles! He also featured a lot of clothing from local designers. The white outfit is made by a Latino man who lives in between Los Angeles and Oakland, and then there’s a distressed black hat that he wears as he’s walking back-and-forth with a crowd behind him a small business, Latino family in LA gave him that hat and they could not believe that he was wearing it in the video*
It was f'n dope to be apart of the video. K-Dot resurrected drake just to kill him again. 😂🔥🔥
I was watching an interview with DJ Mustard, and he says that wearing the Blue Jay's hat was completely accidental. Kendrick noticed it as soon as Mustard got to the set and thought it was brilliant. So they kept it. lmao
What's extra great about this is that the Blue Jays would have had to give permission to be in the video due to it being trademarked.
@@pestobeeare you sure about that? Pretty sure that isnt the case
@@MichaelRosasco Yes, I'm sure. I've worked in costuming in the past. This is a massive thing in regards to brand names and trademarks. Take a look at any movie antagonist and ask yourself if you see any logos or brands, vs the protagonists. You likely won't see any on the villain because they have to be pre-approved, and most brands don't want to be associated with negative connotations. Given all the allegations back and forth between Kendrick and Drake, regardless of if they are true, Kendrick/the production could have had legal trouble if the Blue Jays hadn't approved it.
@@pestobeecap af
@@pestobeethe hat is free promotion, blue jays dgaf
Did Kendrick just call Drake a colonizer on freaking 4th July ???? Yes sir!!!!!!!

“freaking 4th July???”

@@BrandonLawrence so?
@@BrandonLawrence 💀💀
People thought not like us was Kendrick dancing on drakes grave but this is Kendrick full on emoting on all of drakes achievements
This is like the fam watching home movies of the funeral where they danced on Drake’s grave - and reliving the good times!
@@jeffreyhanc1711 omg that’s such a good analogy lol drake ain’t ever coming back from this one, even listening to him don’t hit the same
@@ManasMunirajuYesterday driving with my grandkids in the car to get fireworks and Sexy Red comes on the radio. They dancing and singing and I’m like yall like sexy red yeah. They all singing. Well then Drake parts come and they ALL YELL TURN THE PEDO OFF GRANDMA. I was like WHOOOOOOAAAAAA. I said yall don’t like Drake. My 11yr old grand daughter 10yr old grandson said NO he likes kids in a unhealthy way granny. I said oh shhhhh. It’s over
@@RONJAE212003 it's wild to think that literal children are rejecting his music yet we got grown ass men still dickriding Drake
That speaks volumes
@@Anonymys43 ABSOLUTELY, I guess it's bc kids say things how it is... They are truly unbiased and they're able to identify the real danger discussed in the whole conversation (Drake being a predator and probably trafficking women).
Besides they're not feeling like a deep part of their identity (a.k.s Drake's music) is being taken away, because they're too young to have formed a connection with his music/theme yet.
Seeing Kendrick dancing with his family made me smile! I hear this song everywhere.
Lock them owls up!!!
“I’m teaching my kids to dance on your grave” is so outa pocket I love it lol
The fact he has a mass of people shout „not like us“ now is diabolical and I love it. Especailly after performing it 6 times in a row live already. No mercy for drake rn XD
Is it only me or does the A-minor sound like kids singing it?
If you haven’t seen it yet look up ‘Drake you are like us’
Did you notice the dancing girls had blood and crip flags tied together showing unity
There we loads of bloods and crips there - ua-cam.com/video/blVWjRTwy0M/v-deo.html
The women in this video ATE THE FUCK UP!!!! They look so good and dance so fluid.
Which one
I think Scru Face Jean said something about how Not Like Us could become the anthem of Juneteenth, the same way Alright became an anthem of hope against police brutality and oppression.
Like, by linking this to big summer days like Juneteenth and Independence Day, Kendrick's making it hard for Drake to do the big summer pop tracks subsequent years as well; because people are going to remember this.
Music video has been live for a little over 24 hours. 20mil views. K-dot callin him a colonizer on independence day goes crazy
Whitney in the white wife beater is a chef kiss.
Whitney dancing while wearing a wife beater is just diabolically genius level trolling
The containers are a reference to “The Wire” scene that had the girls in the container … crazy
I said the same thing under another reaction and KDot in the suit is an investigator of the trafficking and exposing it
I am a white dude in his mid 30s with no dancing ability, but this song is such a bop everytime I hear it I feel like I have to start dancing..haha, I can't believe man made such a good song and a killer diss at the same time, that's gotta make it hurt so much more.
The juxtaposition of all these west coast moves and the Drake-imitating dance moves that Kendrick did when he was wearing the gray suit is mindblowing. Such a huge contrast in terms of style and another way that Kendrick shows that he's "not like us".
This right here, ladies and gentlemen, is the difference between an artist and a musician
Not even a musician, just a singer.
@@isaipineda8028Not even a singer, an ACTOR.
@@aqustksC'mon now! Acting is art...😅
Prince was a musician, Michael was an artist - Drake is neither. He is, however, talented, and we can't take that away from him as he's been entertaining us for over a decade.
Not even an Actor, a Plagiarist.
“no ovhoes were harmed during the making of this video” is my favorite part of the whole video lmao
2 other reactors have already used that joke.
@@MrDeadmanwalking44 What point are you making? It literally says it at the bottom of the video where Kdot was beating the Owl Piñata so of course other reactors are going to mention it. Are you dense?
@@drjonesey5 a little
@eeveeblazelol well, kdot definitely lied on that cause after this character assassination ovhoes were differently harmed and hurt LMAAOOQJDJWKSJ
@@muuusii Technically he was right. No ovhoes were harmed in the making of this video but all of the ovhoes were harmed BECAUSE he made the video.
Whitney hitting that dance in a wifebeater is crazy🔥
"Atomic Dog" (Parliament Funkadelic) reference with the dog breathing at the beginning of the video. Parliament Funkadelic is one of the 4 fathers of West Coast Music as whole. Kendrick is getting to the true foundation...to the roots! Good to see and hear. This is where I think Detroit (the origin of Parliament) and West Coast Music are intertwined.
I saw another UA-camr say that all of the words used in the intro were titles of albums/songs of other artists that Drake stole from.
The last scene of the crowd brings back to mind that line from euphoria
“I make music that electrifies them” 😁😁😁😁
I don't know what it is, but Kendrick looks really good in this. He looks really healthy...I don't know why that stood out to me so much.
We noticed it at the pop out! We spoke about it again after watching the video. Dot looks amazing!! Victory is good for the skin, apparently.
@@MsSandyAGo He lives a low-key and healthy lifestyle. He's been working out a lot and eating nutritiously.
@@buddhaparadox I figured as much. He truly is looking quite beautiful these days. It's great to see him look so well.
Compare that to Drake's pic in the "All-White" party. Man looked like he aged 20 years
@@nikkoa.3639 I'm glad I'm not the only one who thinks that. Drake is AGING, you can see it all in his face, skin getting loose around the jaw. If he didn't have the cornrows, you'd think the man is 10 years older.
My favorite small detail I read about this video: the owl piñata is empty. When it comes down to it, there's no actual substance in there.
I absolutely adore how you’re so in-tuned with the cultural, great vid.
2:36
"Shave and a haircut, 2 bits!"
There's history associated with this tune:
"An early occurrence of the tune is from an 1899 Charles Hale minstrel song, At a Darktown Cakewalk."
Everyone should research this! It's fascinating 😊
That hop scotch was clean asf too 😂 I've never seen it done like that befoe
Love it!
17 push ups.
Drakes girls below 18
Kdot 17 Grammys
Those shipping containers in the video weren’t in it randomly. There’s a hint to Drake. We know what shipping containers are legally used for sometimes.
Yeah I agree
Especially when you see what Kendrick is wearing (suit, quite formal like a lawyer) and also the handshake he does with the unnamed person is kinda like the one Drake does in the Family Matters video
If that was Drake showing he put money in the streets to unveil info maybe this is Kdot’s clap-back to be like this is him getting actual info on these containers are what I have on you😮
We still got lots to feast on this beef fo sho🍿🍿🍿🍿🙏🏾💗🙌🏾
@@popcultchic4318the unnamed person he shook hands with is Dave Free which makes it even worse 😭😭
Notice it was a climate controlled container. AC units in the back.
@@BR-qq2gb Not all of us know what they're legally used for sometimes, please do tell.
@@StillWaters101S(x trafficking.
Knox got the reference to the shipping containers faster than any other reaction video.
Also picking up on Kendrick's dismissive smirks in the car, which a lot of reactions missed.
I noticed a few things I haven't heard people mention with Kendrick trolling is Canadians do say "Ay" at the end of a their sentences and he has a few bars in there where he says that at end of his bars. Also during the push-up cell block 1 portion when he puts his fingers up and does that little L finger dance that's a troll from Drake and a young girl doing a dance like that. Also when Kendrick is around all the shipping boxes and he takes his hand by his eye and does that little dance move that's a Drake troll as well cuz Drake did that too. The subtle trolls are amazing as well as the screaming ones.. It's so meticulous and so wild how he just put everything into this song made it a hit it's a summer hit the video is amazing and just the details I mean it's crazy... and the song doesn't get old even if you're like no I don't feel like hearing that again the minute you hear it you're back in it sucks you're back in it's so good.
I’m 50, so I’ve seen every rap beef. This was the most beautiful rebuttal/checkmate of all time. To have Whitney dancing in the video, and to make sure everyone knows Dave Free directed it. Just the ultimate slap in the face rebuttal. You tried to cause rifts with my family and friends, and it didn’t work!! In your face.
@@lh8956 same here!! This takes me back to how Hip Hop & Rap felt in the '90's as a teen/young adult, right before the shift. I was also thinking of how seeing the level of unity in this video reminds me of the video"We're All In The Same Gang".
The snippet at the beginning was FIYAH!!
Can’t wait for the new album
Is that one of the tracks off his new album? It's dope!
slapped ong
@@KnoxHillAs you were looking around reciting the "1,3,3,4,5 PLUS 5" lyrics, Dave free was in shades, dapping up Kendrick. ;)
@@KnoxHill u neither
1:29
Knox: "That's new Kendrick! He's leaking! He's Previewing!"
Kendrick: "I AM."
I saw it 😹
I didn't notice that the first time I watched this video hahahaha
Whitney wearing a wife beater is Savage Kenny stood up at 17 push-ups. Drake doesn't want anything over 18. 😊😅😂
Kendrick, on a level that people really need to understand. That door knocked. There's a reason behind that knock. Pure genius , this video dropped right when they had the all white party. When he's hitting the owl, he had white on. Precision
5:32 I love how even tho the "wop wop wop wop wop" ends, Kendrick still throws one more hit for good measure 😂 nice little symbolic meaning
The biggest Drake Stan argument was that Kendrick wasn't addressing the shots at him.
This was the big reveal that the hero was bullet proof all along.
And pulling the slide at the start to show he was still loaded. Drake threatened a nuclear power with a box cutter.
African child threatening the North Korean Government
not Whitney killin that c-walk in a wifebeater tank top too lmao😂🤣😂 they take the W for champion trollin couple of the year hands down😂
😂😂😂 you right
@@memyselfandi3288 and she's laughing while she does it. I can't imagine how that must have felt for Drake
@@joshbruns7403Drake fr be tweaking cause his allegations against kdot got thrown down and burned to ashes lol
Drake saying those one those kids aren’t Kendrick’s is crazy. Those ears are literally identical
Same thing I said 😂😂😂. I literally looked at them kids and went out of all things to take from your dad, you guys decided to just photocopy his ears 😂😂😂
Mustard didn't even mean to wear the hat. He just put it on without thinking, according to Mustard himself.
"I unconsciously knew what to do" is fuckin wild.

What’s the hat say I couldn’t really see
@@michaeldufour388It's the title of his new album Faith of a Mustard Seed...he talks about it on Big Boy Tv
@@michaeldufour388 it’s a Toronto Bluejays hat
10:18 I love how the video simplifies for the history lesson 💯 excellent representation of the power of integrity in art. 🤘💗
The way he answered everything Drake tried to use against Kendrick had a response... Video of the Year
The blue and red flags tied on the dancers is perfect 😊
Besides the Bible did anyone else notice the bandanas?United we stand🔥
🔵🔴
14:40 Dave Free was in the video at the shipping container scene.
Awesome news about Secret Garden Party with Ren! Wish I could make it but looking forward to the replay. Congrats! ❤🎉🤩
Finally...! Someone to go full on a explain the symbolism in the entire video.
"Who needs genius when you've got Knox.?"🔥🔥💯
Many of y'all missed the car trolling.
@@dejongrant27 i legit didn't get it.
Please explain.
@@dennieblhartley The 1st song I heard from drake, was ransom with lil wayne. Drake says him and Wayne , are like a mouth full of hot peppers. Black Ferrari with red seats, I call it playing checkers. Kendrick and mustard, riding in a black Ferrari with read seats.
@@dejongrant27 tf...?
Damn how y'all get all that
The scene with his family dancing on Drake's grave is the best moment of the entire video
Whitney killin that C-walk in a wifebeater tank top is the ULTIMATE TROLLIN of drake lmao 😂🤣😂
Not a c walk
I saw this comment in the original video but noticed how many time Kendrick did the push up. If i counted correctly he did exactly 17 push ups before stopping and standing up
🎯🎯🎯
I love how you break things down. So informed and intelligent. Had to come here because I knew you would catch most of the hidden messages.❤
5:09 he also has a picture on the floor. This is a direct blow to Drake saying I know my pictures on the wall when y’all cook up so the speaker is there. The picture is there while he’s spitting the bars like no your picture is not on the wall when I hook up it’s on the floor.
There are so many direct messages in this video connected to Kendrick’s lyrics and what Drake has even said. And the subliminals are INSANE.
This is why I come to Knox Hill for the breakdowns!
Whitney and family dancing was the diabolical part for sure. Remember, Drake is getting therapy for abandonment issues and is unable to hold a relationship for long enough to ever start a family. Kendrick's family dancing on him must really hurt.
Yeah it's sad when you put it that way.
😂😂😂😂😂
@Nabychodonozord Drake is unable to keep a long relationship cause once they turn 18 he’s gotta let them go they too old for him then.
