Drake just released a 7 minute banger but I really cannot wait for Kendrick’s response holy shit Drake is gonna get fucking bodied so hard

https://youtu.be/ZkXG3ZrXlbc?si=VW9q0asclqF9t7w6 Drake’s response cw: mentions of domestic violence

I think crushing the GKMC truck is kinda corny and too on the nose, but props to Drake for putting out a response so quickly, this is probably the hardest I’ve ever heard Drake go honestly who knows if it was ghost written or AI but it’s genuinely impressive coming from him. Drake also claims Kendrick abused his wife? This isn’t good, but he needs to show receipts because he could just be talking shit, the same way he claims one of his kids is someone else’s which, who cares but he’s releasing really sensitive info which may or may not hold weight. Kendrick’s response will be so fucking powerful after these claims though, he already dropped two perfect diss tracks, the second he released today which was pulling his punches, but after this it’s straight up warfare

Edit: Kendrick responded an hour later I need time to process this response

Hopefully it will end with Drake being shot for being a pedofile

[–] Rojo27@hexbear.net 23 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I never really listened to Drake much so I don't really care much for the beef itself, but Kendrick's diss tracks are justchefs-kiss

Wake me up when one of them murders the other. This is lab-grown beef, aka, cooked up by beef scientists in the advertising beef lab.

[–] CrackBurger@hexbear.net 29 points 1 year ago (4 children)

Kendrick exposing inner workings of an alleged OVO grooming circle is kinda dangerous ngl lol, I fear for his safety just a bit, like 2/10 paranoid something might happen

Not all beef has to be industry drum up. Some people just got volatile ego. Gibbs got jumped by griselda cause he and benny had some petty exchanges.

[–] bbnh69420@hexbear.net 13 points 1 year ago

Ah yes, call me and my crew pedophiles, that’s definitely what my career needs at this point in time

Listening to Meet the Grahams was stomach churning. It legitimately felt like watching a horror movie, the stuff revealed about Drake in that song should get him thrown into a wood chipper if true. Also, I might be wrong but from what I understood the only source on the Kendrick DV allegations was one post on a random person’s blog from like 2014

[–] peppersky@hexbear.net 20 points 1 year ago (5 children)

kendrick vs drake is like a grown ass man taking candy from a child. has there been a single second in drake's career where he has been anything other than a laughing stock? if you care about this in any way you are a fucking tool

[–] btbt@hexbear.net 22 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Ok but what if it’s a situation where the baby who’s getting their candy stolen deserves it

[–] peppersky@hexbear.net 9 points 1 year ago (3 children)

hey if this kills drake's career i'm not going to complain about it, but until it does it's literally just marketing for both of them

[–] EmoThugInMyPhase@hexbear.net 12 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (2 children)

Marketing? Marketing is if they kept calling each other bums and comparing themselves to Michael Jackson lol. They’re accusing each other domestic abuse and sex trafficking and abandoning children. That’s not marketing lol

Kendrick see Drake as a clown and evil person. Neither of them really care about each other’s music.

Yeah all Drake has is commerical success. Which no one who takes music seriously cares about in determining the quality of someone's work. Many mediocre artists are commercially successful. Taylor Swift is the most commercially successful artist right now, despite her latest album having some pretty horrific lyrics. Beyoncé is commercially successful because she has a whole team behind her to engineer her music, like most pop stars. Drake is the most commercially successful rapper even though most of his shit sounds like fake tough guy poser talk and is very clearly ghostwritten.

No one really cares about that. Abbey Road by the Beatles is remembered as one of the best albums ever made, even though it did not win the Grammy that year. No one alive today is going to say that whatever album that won the Grammy in 1970 is better than Abbey Road.

The fact that so many books still name the Beatles as "the greatest or most significant or most influential" rock band ever only tells you how far rock music still is from becoming a serious art. Jazz critics have long recognized that the greatest jazz musicians of all time are Duke Ellington and John Coltrane, who were not the most famous or richest or best sellers of their times, let alone of all time. Classical critics rank the highly controversial Beethoven over classical musicians who were highly popular in courts around Europe. Rock critics, instead, are still blinded by commercial success. The Beatles sold more than anyone else (not true, by the way), therefore they must have been the greatest. Jazz critics grow up listening to a lot of jazz music of the past, classical critics grow up listening to a lot of classical music of the past. Rock critics are often totally ignorant of the rock music of the past, they barely know the best sellers.

has there been a single second in drake's career where he has been anything other than a laughing stock?

This is such a bizarre out of touch comment lol. He’s a sleazy pedophile who steals from other artists, but that really doesn’t matter because he is consistently in the top charts with millions of fans and hundred million dollar contracts. He’s a laughing stock with his lyrics, sure, but you’re acting like his image is a universal one

Kendrick's response: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2QiFl9Dc7D0

Did he already had this track done knowing Drake would release the diss track lol

[–] eight@hexbear.net 27 points 1 year ago (1 children)

he's responding to lines from this diss and has a picture of ozempic in it.

100% someone on drake's team already leaked the diss to him so he could respond this fast

[–] Rojo27@hexbear.net 23 points 1 year ago

Also does the whole talking directly to Drake's family members, which seems like a pretty direct response to the "Family Matters" theme Drake was going for. God fucking damndata-laughing

Imagine looking at the at the image attached to meet the grahams and still thinking drake has any chance in hell.

[–] Moonworm@hexbear.net 12 points 1 year ago

I don't really listen to either, but Kendrick seemed to be really cooking Drake.

Apparently, Kendrick's crew robbed Drake's dad, which is how he got the prescription medicine. Zero clue about whether this is true or not:

[–] CrackBurger@hexbear.net 22 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) (3 children)

people theorizing OVO has moles and have been feeding Kendrick info, it would be weird of Kendrick’s people robbed his dads house idk seems kinda far fetched lol. I think it would make more sense if there really was someone at OVO who leaked Drakes diss but also provided Kendrick with the pills and other shit, but who tf knows. Literal fog of war rn

Either way this kills drake imo to know Kendrick was right on 6:16 with OVO having people that genuinely dislike him, it makes him more paranoid and redirects his egotistical rage from Kendrick to OVO itself, it’s just too much for someone as weak as him to recover from and I doubt we’d see a response like the one he came out with today, he’ll be too upset and in his feelings and too paranoid especially since there’s bottles of his own Ozempic in the cover along with other psychologically damaging items. I was legitimately expecting a response in a week or so but Kendrick just dropped it an hour later, giving Drake no time at all to feel good about his diss, Kendrick wiped the floor with him and his whole family and even outed more grooming allegations involving him and OVO.

Two separate albums dissin' I just did the Kim to it, n***a skim through it

kitsuragi-dance

[–] EmoThugInMyPhase@hexbear.net 7 points 1 year ago

Crushing the van is corny, but if it’s the original van then it’s pretty insulting. A symbolic attack on what the van represents and also Drake was featured on the same album, so it comes in full circle.

[–] PaulSmackage@hexbear.net 7 points 1 year ago

Just like Jimmy Brooks, Drake doesn't have a leg to stand on god damn
