Still don't know what's happening, but now my (I assume these are personalized) TV/Movie feed on Youtube has Degrassi the Next Generation, followed by Family Matters and Euphoria as recommended picks...

I thought most of these songs were goofy but “Not Like Us” was a killer. That Atlanta verse 😮💨

hip hop does feel better when we have true hatred feuds, like ja rule and 50 cent. even better that we don't have to have ja rule and 50 cent!

Most of the previous hip hop beefs of the last few years getting talked about were just Nicki ranting about how she’s the one best female rapper on her radio show and SoundCloud idiots like Tekashi posting gross stuff online and trying to pick fights with random established stars. Kendrick and Drake actually feels like a heavyweight competition.

Drake had had an unbelievable career. But I feel like almost any time I see him being talked about, it’s someone saying how much he sucks. I mean, he must have a massive fan base. But damn does he have a lot of detractors. And being called a pedo, by the most widely acclaimed artist of the past decade, isn’t going to help.

So somethings have a that just occurred to me is Kendrick took until his about 4th song before he got to the grooming accusations, which are both the easiest and hardest shot he could have taken.
He was holding back.

Also, I'm glad the pendulum has swung all the way back to show LL Cool J on every level beat Canibus. It wasn't just "he has the major label machine behind him." As great as "Second Round K.O." was, "The Ripper Returns" was a line-for-line bar-for-bar rebuttal that took out Canibus and still left strong jabs in for Wyclef and Tyson. Very underrated in the grand scheme of things. Then Canibus' "Rip the Jacker" came out, and as cool and inventive as it was to hear Canibus rhyming over Cool J's "I'm B.A.D.," the lyrics were just absolutely *NOT* there. He flopped hard right on his face. Yeah LL definitely won. His response was so much better. Flipping 99% of your fans wear high heels to 99% of your fans don't exist alone was probably enough but the whole thing was great. I still think he was a bit of a bitch though for that whole thing starting in the first place. "Let me borrow that mic on your arm" was such an innocuous line from Canibus and if anything was paying tribute to LL. I've no idea why he took such great offense to it. Win, lose, or draw, even Drakes harshest critics now have no choice to admit one thing..He can actually spit bars when motivated It would be weird if people didn't already know this. He's shown many times over the years he can rap really well and has great flows. The thing is he's rarely motivated to do that. We saw it in 2015 v Meek Mill then a year later he dropped Views which was a bloated mess with barely a couple standout tracks. When he's in album mode he rarely hits that level and instead focuses on the numbers game. That will give you popularity in the moment but when people are talking greatest rappers you probably won't be mentioned if most of your albums are full of filler looking for Tik-Tok trends or Spotify hits. And there's nothing wrong with that. Except he seems to also want the respect of being the best actual rapper etc. Okay so make a better album than GKMC or TPAB then. You're not going to be considered the best with the odd fire verse here and there but most of your work is lifeless chart-bait. Drake I find similar to Cole in a way that when they're featured on someone else's track and that competitive edge is there they'll come through but when it comes time to put together an album that fire rarely comes through as much. They both arguably "only" have 1 classic each but on paper have the potential to have had more. Especially that ending part, I share the same perspective (as I do music as well). Albums are more for creativity and tryna do the Dusty Rhodes (have a body of work), while features are basically (especially ground level) free promotion back to you. So add that with the natural competitiveness of hip hop, and it’s definitely becomes more a “Show and Prove” scenario.

As a Drake hater and Kendrick fan this feud has been wonderful to witness. Drake had had an unbelievable career. But I feel like almost any time I see him being talked about, it’s someone saying how much he sucks. I mean, he must have a massive fan base. But damn does he have a lot of detractors. And being called a pedo, by the most widely acclaimed artist of the past decade, isn’t going to help. Chuck Klosterman had a quote about Chad Kroeger of Nickelback that I feel can be applied to Drake nowadays:

He's just not a lot of people's cup of tea. Drake on the other hand...

Oh absolutely, Chad's worst sin is being the frontman of a band that's the face of the whole early 2000's post-grunge/buttrock scene. Drake's worst sin is...well, take your pick.

So, somebody shot Drake's security guard? (I get my news about this beef from the most reputable source, RateYourMusic) Almost definitely part of an ongoing thing between the gangs that Drake and Weeknd are affiliated with, Weeknd's manager's house was shot up last week.

Without knowing ANY story about the fued(or listening to their diss tracks) and judging solely on the 2 or 3 songs I've heard from Kendrick and the many I've been subjected to from Drake, I'd say Kendrick would easily shit all over any of drake's output.
Honestly, the only good thing about Drake were the memes he's spawned.
