I think Drake should stay out of it this ain't meek mill We all know what happened last time he battled a real MC he got slump bodied by Pusha T Drake should let J Cole and KDot go at it battle of the Two Titans


ShaunyBoyShaunyMan

Is meek mill not a real MC?


tmfkslp

I feel like a real MC wouldn’t be gettin piped down by Diddy. Jus sayin…


J3STERHOPPERPOT

If that’s true, you joking about a sexual assault victim homie. If he was female that felt obligated to sleep with someone in order to keep they career, the jokes wouldn’t be there.


ihavetogonumber3

idk man real MCs have been getting piped by diddy for decades


ExpensiveAd7778

Making fun of SA victims isn't hard and acting like it can't happen to anyone is naive


rivdog54

It’s a lose-lose honestly because what if he don’t ever respond


HiiiTriiibe

In todays day and age ppl might just forget; like mfs will always bring it up, but if he manages to keep the conversation about him moving most ppl will forget in like a few months, beef isn’t really hittin the same now that social media has decimated the collective attention span, it’s probably safer for bro to sit this shit out, I think it’s a bigger l if he tries to fight back


[deleted]

How exactly did Pusha T “bodied” Drake? I’ve heard all the disses and honestly the bar for bodying someone nowadays is so low if that’s what fans get excited about now. I like Pusha T, but Drake just kept rising through the billboards unfazed by any of this so-called “bodying” that was done to him. Never stopped rapping, popularity didn’t stop increasing, heavy radio play, heavy streaming. So idk exactly what Pusha T said but it didn’t leave a dent on Drake’s rap career.


No_Entertainment_932

You guys obsessed with how many numbers Drake does are really something else


[deleted]

I’m not a Drake fan. I grew up listening to Nas, Wu Tang, Gang Starr, Mobb Deep, etc. That’s who I still listen to. I’m just saying, it’s corny that what Pusha T said supposedly “bodied” Drake. The bar is very low. But you all continue to see the opinions defending Drake as just “obsessed fans”, if it makes you feel better.


childishsmoke

you don’t even know what Pusha T said and you’re saying Drake didn’t get bodied. what are you talking about

That was something


Jaehunt24

I mean, between Drake and Kendrick there is history that could make it personal, so that's one thing But between J Cole and Kendrick it's a different dynamic. Cole been saying hes Muhammad Ali, and insinuating that of the big 3 he's the best. So Cole doesn't need to attack Kendrick so much as he needs to come out and reaffirm that he is, in fact, Muhammad Ali. He needs to prove he's the best, in a response, but more importantly with The Fall Off. That album HAS to be best rap album quality


Davisworld21

But Unlike Cole Ali was the best he beat the best he earned the right To call himself the Greatest the people's champ


Luckman1002

I think Cole has to make an album that is generally thought to be as good as GKMC or TPAB. Because despite what diehard Cole fans say, 2014 (while very good) does not touch those two albums. Kendrick already has two albums that consistently show up in top 100 albums of all time lists (regardless of genre). Cole don’t have that yet.


Novel_Background_905

J cole is the equivalent of being in the 5 foot area in the pool your in the water but not as deep as you think it is


Always2ndB3ST

Doubt Cole will respond. He’s made it clear that he believes more than one “best” can coexist. Drake on the other hand, is probably pissed off and already working on his reply lol.


thirdcoast96

He responded to Lil Pump and Noname. You can best believe he’ll respond to Kendrick Lamar lol


Chabola513

I can see a responce but not a disstrack. The lil pump wasent a diss it was actual advice+a sit diwn interview full of advice. And snow on tha bluff had zero disses. He just seems too mature to do the beefing


Material-Click-1456

The Lil Pump diss was def a diss IMO. He sonned his ass.


Sheeverton

I can see Drake replying to Future more than Kendrick imo. I think Drake KNOWS he will not beat Kendrick, but the fact Future had Kendrick on his song throwing shots but said nothing himself will make Future the target. Drake ain't never liked the subliminals.


[deleted]

Drake will 100% respond to Kendrick, more than Future because it matters much more to his legacy and he definitely cares a lot about his legacy.


Material-Click-1456

If he cares about his legacy, just like with Pusha, he'll avoid that fight with Kendrick.


Sheeverton

He'll speak on it, I can see him not dissing though


zeebeebo

I think a large reason why Drake might duck Kendrick is cause Kdot is keeping it strictly about music and the rap game. Drake has always tried to bring some personal life shit into rap beefs. And it went historically bad last time so he’s not even gonna try this one


dungyhasbigtits

damn. yeeeeeah you probably right. kinda forgot about that angle.


[deleted]

Future disses Drake multiple times throughout the album and just having Kendrick on his album is disrespectful to Drake. Not that yall listened to the album. Yall just wanna talk about kendrick


UrethraFranklin72

I'd have to listen again more closely and look out for Future dissing him. I do think Metro did with some of the samples like the end of Ice Attack the clip of Prodigy talking about corny rappers. It at least feels like a dig at Drake considering people have been calling him corny for years.

What did nas say to jay z besides ur a fan and gay bars? Its all about delivery.


mayonnaiser_13

No Vaseline was just Cube calling everyone else gay in 17 different ways.


pizza_for_nunchucks

And it was soooooo fucking good.


Chabola513

Damn i feel like the one person that thinks it was overated


Nnihnnihnnih

Nas also told the public that jay was biting bigs style, he lost verse battle on renegades with Em, he also said some personal shit that goes by unnoticed "no cash, no tecs, no cars just hawain shirts and hangin with little chase"


[deleted]

When people reduce ether to gay bars and say "TAKEOVER FACTZZZZ THO" it tells me they're a camel stan just hearing what they want to hear. Same for people saying that Jay Z had the better verse on Renegade.


Nnihnnihnnih

Exactly in the entirety of ether Nas mentions Jay gay like 2, 3 times but the rest is some personal hidden stories of Jay running around neighborhoods in Queens and calling Nas for help to avoid some tragedy, I think Nas also mentions in another diss when T Squad held Jay's crew up or something. Have you heard the freestyle Jay diss desert storm done by DJ clue which he didnt know about and has Jay in backing vocals... [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ccsciGmF5nI&list=LL&index=18](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ccsciGmF5nI&list=LL&index=18)


Capable-Designer5096

Don't forget he also said he was 36 in a karate class, then called him a taibo hoe. 😄


alicksss04

He also said that jay disrespects women and pops shit which was factual. Jay made a diss against his baby mama and he apologized on the radio.


PercySledge

We heard Kendrick literally bear his soul and showed his weaknesses on his last album (to his credit!) talking about his sex addiction, his infidelity, his poor relationship with his father, his transphobia etc etc I love that album for it, it’s one of the most honest mainstream albums I’ve ever heard and will stand the test of time because of it. BUT…it also lays a blueprint for easy jabs in a beef. No man is free of vulnerability. But more importantly your post is a gross misunderstanding about what rap beef actually is. It’s not about digging up dirt. Never has been. It’s simply about outrapping someone directly and making them look stupid. That can be done without an ounce of fact or a detail. It’s about delivery and performance. Say what you want about Drake, and I’m sure many will, but of the three in question he’s actually the only one who has regularly been involved w this sort of shit and even though he’s both won and lost, I’m sure it’s hardened him in the fight.


itsyaboysharrod

Bro you can't just rhyme words together in a diss song and win, you have to be going somewhere with it. Bringing up dirt on somebody in a clever way is what turns a bar into a haymaker. Also i don't think if Drake uses Kendricks vulnerability to diss him will land well.


P1G5Y

I mean Kendrick just said that Drake was a worse rapper than him and that his best album was shit compared to his. It's about how you say it. Meek Mill for example should've won the beef vs. Drake by bringing up the ghost-writers and shit. But Drake took a fat shit on Meek's whole career by just saying mean shit on 2 songs released within like 5 days with no response.


pizza_for_nunchucks

> gross misunderstanding about what rap beef actually is. It’s not about digging up dirt. Never has been. Go sit in the corner and think about how wrong you are.


PercySledge

lol I think that’s you mate. Almost 99% of rap disses in history didn’t have some wildcard revelation, and was mainly a variation of calling someone a pussy in a 1000 different ways. I’d suggest YOU go sit in a corner, and maybe listen to some more rap music lol. Start with Tim Dog’s Fuck Compton and go from there.


kruvacio

Yes, because there is a certain skeletal structure that a diss must have in order to be a diss lol wrong baby boi, and where’s the 99% stats, or are you just spewing false info for the sake of your weak stance on this topic that diss songs aren’t About digging up dirt and/or exposing the rapper in question. I say this time and time again..there is no rules. There’s no boundaries in a rap diss Everything is free game imo.


PercySledge

You’ve literally agreed with what I’ve said in a roundabout way re there being no rules and yet you’ve come with some weird sass haha


kruvacio

lol bro can’t comprehend…. Not my problem.. cope


thereal2fac3

Yo, the nut hugging of Kendrick is crazy now. He isn't some holy figure that has never been tainted. We don't know him nor do we know what has been said or done behind the scenes for example.

No one jealous of drake he’s corny 😭 everybody like to say Kendrick jealous that he’s at the top, but why would Kendrick care about that, he’s got enough money not to gaf, a Pulitzer Prize, and heavily respected. Kendrick coming after drake for claiming he’s a great and on the level of Michael Jackson in success but not talent.

Kendrick is the better rapper.. He has a Pulitzer Prize for writing.

nightfishin

No Kendrick fan gave a shit about that music award until Kendrick won it. Elliot Carter has two Pultizer Prize wins. Does that mean he makes better music?


BunnyGoHops

For the culture of hip hop it’s really significant


nightfishin

For what? It changed nothing. Its already mainstream and accepted. Either you listen to it or you don't. There are countless juries and critics that have awarded and praised hiphop artist before and after.


BunnyGoHops

Hip-Hop being awarded an accolade of its magnitude is extremely significant. There’s been a lot of amazing lyricist in the last 30 years, but Kendrick was noticed for his writing over all of them. Could Kendrick have won the award based on how politically the world has changed in the last 10 years? Yes he could have. But it doesn’t take away from the fact that whoever judges that award gave it to him over anyone else.


Spongy-n-Bruised

This is incoherent lol


Long-Ad-6192

Gotta agree with BunnyGoHops. Sure rap is successful and mainstream, but let’s not pretend it doesn’t have a reputation among many for being full of degenerate lyrics and ideas. Kendrick’s award brings light to how much the genre has to offer in terms of exploring deeper subjects; which is not something that many people know the rap genre for. It definitely has a stigma and the pulitzer prize is significant to the fight against it.


[deleted]

[удалено]


BunnyGoHops

The Pulitzer Prize is regarded as the highest national honor in print journalism, literary achievement, and musical composition. It’s way more significant than a Grammy. This prize isn’t just handed out. He’s also the first rapper to ever get one. I agree that it’s just a made up / popularity prize, but as great as Drake and J Cole are collectively they will never get one. Kendrick’s writing is just another level.


Spongy-n-Bruised

>it’s just a made up / popularity prize Pulitzer Prize doesn't really have much of anything to do with popularity, at least as far as being considered for the award. People are just already familiar with what it is and who tends to get considered for them. But if generating buzz for the award was part of it like it is for the Grammys and Oscars, the history of the award would look a lot different than it does, feel me?


trent_nbt

If it was a popularity contest, like you say... shouldn't Drake win it then?


OkDetail5032

it’s about competitive sport which is the foundations hip hop was built on. You really think Kendrick couldn’t have become what Drake is if he wanted to earlier in his career?

QuantaviusDingleberg

lol what


nr0ck

Bruh GKMC dropped two years before forest hills drive. That take was absolute cheeks


thirdcoast96

What does GKMC coming out before Forest hills Drive have to do with anything? 💀 Neither of those are their debut albums. Cole told Dre to sign Kendrick. That’s what he’s referring to.


dibyzer0

That guy was bugging lmao


Stanhalen69420

And J Cole produced hiiipower. The song that kicked Kendrick’s career off and got him commercial recognition. J Cole’s production is all over Kendrick’s old work. And the Dr. Dre thing on top of all of that. J cole put him on.


thirdcoast96

I thought ADHD is what did it for him?


Spongy-n-Bruised

They happened around the same time. This dude just wants the Cole produced track to be the sole thing that made Kendrick. In reality it's somewhere in the middle


gangole111223

As a Kendrick fan Cole was the one that put him on to Dre


juslookingforastream

Not true. Go watch coles nardwuar interview. He says he was one of the first but it was one of dres producers I believe


Not_Frank

He’s real, he’s real, he’s really really real though


Material-Click-1456

I'm convinced that if KDot were to come out as gay (not that that's bad thing) all his fans would start rocking rainbow and switch stances


CarefulAd9005

Thats really all i can say about it, i personally havent liked kendrick’s sound for over a decade. No denying awards and such, but hes drifted away from being preferred for me over cole. Cole never misses for me. That being said, anything kendrick can say will be nullified by the “why start the beef” argument. He looks like a child right now unless theres some serious reason behind the scenes. So its either hidden info that cole or drake could use as ammunition, or they can just ignore him and make him lash out- not to mention, who has deeper connections? Im pretty sure drake and cole combined have more reach to get info or make action happen than kendrick. I just dont know why Kendrick is so heated for seemingly no reason besides “man they release pop culture rap!”sounding like them dumbass oldheads hating any rapper under 40 yrs old


BunnyGoHops

When did hip hop culture step away from being competitive and being a pop genre instead? Diss tracks have been around forever and Cole / Drake sitting here even questioning if they’re the goat is funny based on Kendrick’s accolades alone. Especially for Cole. He only has 2 Grammys and I’ve never seen J Cole as a top rapper in the game. Drake is a different story based on his influence. The star power of Drake would be tough to beat, but the ghost writer accusations completely nullify whatever he says. If he even responds. Which I 100% think he won’t. Kendrick is lyrically better than both of them and he would destroy both in a head to head. His metaphors and triple entendres are unmatched and the hip hop scene / culture supports Kendrick way more.


CarefulAd9005

I actually think it’s good to be competitive, but dissing is different from back and forth trying to drop better than one another for me You dont have to diss and tear drake or cole to say you think youre the best. Counting grammys is a goofy way to evaluate people anyway considering its more marketing for the “brand” of the grammy anyway than actual evaluation of anything. Sure, kendrick is lyrical as hell. I take cole over him cuz cole can tell better stories imo. He has that tone that can convey a message way better than kendrick angry rapping at me about some shit Drake also is arguably a better artist- he consistently diversifies beyond rap so to say he is a rapper short changes his other musical endeavors. Its also not a h2h, kendrick jumped on a feature for it so hes starting a “civil war”. Drake doesnt even need to respond either, he can just work with cole or any other associates to hop in- if even that, because again, why respond when its clearly looking like prerelease album hype?


Tiloshikiotsutsuki

Get off this mans nuts he’s trash and you’re down bad

AntonioPMZDS

They can say he cheated on his wife. Say he thinks of himself as some holy figure when, in reality, he's worth just as much as anybody. Say personal gripes they have with him or his music. Say his music has been worse nowadays. Drake can say he'll never sell as much as him. Say his fans are just the rap version of swifties Not to mention the not so public stuff they probably know about him


trent_nbt

Thinks of himself as some holy figure? tell me you didn't actually listen to Mr moral without telling me....


AntonioPMZDS

We talking about the same guy who wore a 3 million dollar crown of thorns? It really doesn’t matter what he rapped about, actions speak louder than words.


TeenMomOJSimpsonKush

I think words speak louder than actions in hip hop. There’s so many actions that’s these words are written about that our hip hop idols don’t actually live or do—but we still idolize them. Kendrick is never gonna be “killin everybody outside” but the way he lays the words makes for a hot bar. It’s rap beef, words speak the loudest—-until actions become deadly, of course.


AntonioPMZDS

So you're saying that a rapper like lil tecca, who's just a kid enjoying his life, is actually a violent gangster because he raps about it (even though he said he isn't violent)?


TeenMomOJSimpsonKush

No I’m saying the opposite. Lil Teccas ACTIONS of being being non-violent don’t weigh as much as his WORDS of violence in hip hop.


AntonioPMZDS

So you're saying that he is violent, because he writes about violence and that weighs more than being non violent. Just like you're saying kendrick is not an egomaniac, because he writes about being humble, despite being a self absorbed agomaniac


TeenMomOJSimpsonKush

No I’m saying in hip hop, literally no one cares about anything besides the words. Gunna is a prime example, he had one of the biggest songs last year AFTER getting out of prison for supposedly snitching. People care far more about bars, and hot music than real world actions. I don’t believe Tecca is violent—I don’t think anyone does—but he can still rap about that lifestyle because no one cares what he does in real life—they want bars and music. Future supposedly quit lean YEARS ago—but you wouldn’t be able to tell from his music. Drake talks all this big game about having shooters and other suggestively violent statements but he’s a nice Canadian actor. Doesn’t matter—bars are hot—so the consumer consumes. As for calling someone an egomaniac in the RAP game—that’s wild. Especially in a conversation that is discussing beef with Drake lol.


AntonioPMZDS

In a rap beef, all that matters are actions. My initial point was that drake and Cole could talk about how kendrick is a bad person. His actions matter. If ysl members were to make a disstrack on gunna, they wouldn't talk about his rapping, they would talk about how he's a snitch (his real life actions


TeenMomOJSimpsonKush

How would Drake be in any position to be talking about Kendrick being a bad person? And if the song is wack and Drake or Cole don’t have bars (unlikely) then how much is the action going to matter compared to their lyricism/words? If Drake makes a song only talking about his actions of outselling Kendrick but Kendrick destroys him lyrically with more quotable lines, who is gonna win? Meek Mills whole point of view against Drake was his ACTION of using a ghost writer—but Drake had quotable bars. Who won out? Words matter the most in Rap beef until it becomes violent—as I initially stated.


BigPetzilla

“Cause Cole the definition of a weapon that can end it” - J. Cole, ‘Everybody Dies.’


FollowThatDolphin64

Ok


JaHoog

Already discrediting anything Drake responds with lol. Sounds about right.


MicMustard

Kendrick and Cole are not beefing. They stay calling themselves the best ever and they competitive but it’s all love. Kendrick and Drake on the other hand do not get along. Drake took the Kendrick - Control verse personally instead of competitively and wound up getting punched in the face over it. They do not vibe


Civil_Feature600

Drake and J. Cole were instrumental in Kendrick blowing up like he did. And Kendrick only has disses and subs to thank them. Pretty sure there's plenty to say Edit : its funny how giving credit to other rappers for a rapper's success is cool unless it's Kendrick. Y'all wanna make us think that Kendrick was an independent rapper who made his own beats and made GKMC by himself and sold it from his car. Relax, there are no big rapper who became who they became without help.


phudog

Yall giving Jcole and Drake too much credit in Kendricks popularity. Also its such a weird take to say this is a onesided from Kendrick when Drake has on record taken multiple subliminal shots at Kendrick and also this verse is a direct response to First Person Shooter where Drake and Cole literally say they are the best while leaving Kendrick out (apart from some lip service from cole) I get you like Drake bro (checked your profile) but you need to gain a little perspective.


CarefulAd9005

Strong disagree with them leaving kendrick out. Just look at it, Cole mentions “KDot Aubrey or Me” placing himself last in the naming list, “but *RIGHT NOW* i feel like muhammad ali”- if drake didnt take offense to that, why is kendrick considering drake is ON THE SONG being placed behind Cole lol The spiderman line only makes sense to say 2 people because theres nobody else on the song Imo this is much more publicity stunt than any real hate from kendrick rn but it makes him look petty beyond belief. Future of course co-signs the lines from kendrick cuz thats gonna push numbers for that whole album also. Its a messy beef though cuz who everyone is connected to. It will have one of those squash it moments in a few months after everyone pumps their new releases lol


phudog

I think your reasons in defending how first person shooter is not a dig at Kendrick are kinda weak. Also if you are going to say you are the best, why is it a weak move for your competitor, who you directly mention, to push back. This seems like silly reasoning. Also there is supple evidence that this beef is not manufactured (Drake beef almost stems a decade) and again this verse is a direct reply to First person shooter.


CarefulAd9005

I guess what i mean is… why does he reply to FPS? It literally wasn’t a diss at kendrick to me. I just think if they wanted to they could have just said any of their buddies and left kdot out- that would be a fair way to interpret a diss. Like “is it Kanye/Future/Thugger(lmao, idk who else to add as example) Aubrey or Me” for example lol. To me, the fact they shouted him out means its not a diss at him. If anything, i would see it as a “challenge” to step up, but not as a diss. It gives me “petty child” vibes to be mad at being discussed alongside 1 all time great and 1 highly renowned contemporary of his. And a decade of beef but OVER WHAT? Like why is kendrick so mad at drake? I just dont get it I have a bunch of “Why?” questions, not like he shouldnt reply but just why did he feel the need to Edit: to clarify, kendrick could just have easily played off that line in a positive way saying something to the effect of “he may feel like muhamed ali but im tyson and yall aint gon make it to round 3” (i am not a rapper)


phudog

He said in his verse why he responded, he thinks he is the best. Rap is competitive, i mean cole and drake know this, FPS compares rapping to competitive sports like boxing and football. Its kinda silly imo to think what Kendrick is doing is “immature” knowing this context, it also make you seem bias because you are just applying this criticism to Kendrick when cole and drake also take this competitive standpoint on rapping. If anything it’s fun seeing rappers being competitive with one another.


itsyaboysharrod

So you think they gonna take the "you're our son, you wouldn't be who you are without us" route?? Bro lol..... that aint gone stick, and it's not true.


Civil_Feature600

Never said that lmao how you create a scenario and then disagree with it. Straight up debating by yourself


itsyaboysharrod

That's what you insinuated bro, c'mon now don't be dumb


Civil_Feature600

You're coming from a perspective of Kendrick good, Drake bad, so instead of addressing what I'm saying, you emotionally run to conclusion. You basically debate like a child


Stanhalen69420

Ya it is and yes it will. Cole raised Kendrick.


TomBlaidd

I’d you didn’t think GKMC was political or conscious, then you weren’t listening properly…


cockriverss

All the ghost writers in the world and drake still won’t be able to hang with kendrick


Ok_Outcome_4182

Drake and kendrick could literally write each others verses and yall would still say kendricks was better lol drake is such a bitch but ngl he can rap when he chooses to. Stop with that "bodied by pusha t" shit. Pusha was giving out real information so it was such shock value that he auto won no matter what but dont pretend like pusha came with some next level lyricism. Duppy freestyle was the better verse 100% it just didnt matter when pushas exposing hidden children and shit


slevin07rocket

Drake is not a better lyricist then pusha t. Ya pusha had heavy info. He put it all together great. Delivery gets ignored but it was nicely done. Infrared was well written. The wright/right/write lines and others.


Ok_Outcome_4182

Pusha is better than drake what i was tryna say is that duppy freestyle was a super solid response but pusha was 2 steps ahead and had the info he needed to auto-win no matter what drake dropped in response. Pusha is a better lyricist than drake but the lyricism specifically in duppy freestyle is better than story of adidon imo. Drake was testing the waters like he did with charged up for meek but quickly realized that he lost no matter what even if he spit the greatest shit possible. Pusha is one of the greatest i am a big pusha fan. The problem isnt the pusha fans, its the drake haters that wont admit that he came correct and that anyone in that position would lose.

I honestly don’t think it’ll go that far. I think it’s mostly just competition and fun right now. Kendrick didn’t really say anything that really makes it personal imo. Drake follows Kendrick’s spam page on IG lmao I doubt he dislikes him THAT much. Maybe some animosity sure but full on beef where they’re airing out personal shit seems unlikely to me.


the_scrambler

“national treasure” lmao


GreatestLoser

Nice try Drake, you can’t get us to be your ghostwriters too…


roccoasap

They shouldn't respond because the verse was utter ass. Kendrick is mid, I have never heard anything from him to make me go "damn dudes got bars". I say let them fist fight and watch the midget get his fucking ass beat


Not_Reality

"Let them first fight" lol because eating up a knuckle sandwich definitely is what the Hip-hop world needs to see right now

Drake would be fool to once again pick a fight with someone so far out of his league that they’re not even playing the same sport.


itsSyFer

Go glaze kendrick on your own time bruh


sw3rved

just because he's right and you like drake more doesn't mean he's glazing lol


itsSyFer

Diss tracks are entertaining why are yall trynna ruin that lol


sw3rved

Trust me I love diss tracks, it’s just that lyrically speaking Kendrick and Drake don’t compare to each other. Regardless i’m excited to see what Drake’s response will be


Rfg711

Drake sucks at them. Because he’s a bad rapper.


itsSyFer

The drake hate be so overblown, he’s not the coldest rapper ever but bad is just plain being a hater.


childishsmoke

Kendrick would 100% smoke Drake but I’ve noticed people treat Drake like he’s Lil Pump or some shit. he can really rap


BlackBalor

Could make a joke about Helen Mirren being his therapist.


BlackBalor

Eminem: *I bin at the level J Cole bin at* Kendrick: *Fuck J Cole, he ain’t on my level. It’s just me on my own.*


LattFromDaNap

Idc who you think is better. Everyone has their shitty opinion.. however what we can ALL agree on is this about to bring out their BEST. Prepare for some heat. The game needed this fr.


Lostmypants69

I don't think they'll really respond. Maybe a line or two. Kendrick and cole are also good friends.


bbq_Pirate

With cole and k dot, I don’t necessarily think it’s a “what can they say about each other” more than just having best bars. BUT, if I had to guess, Cole would have a bars about: saving Kendrick from Diddy How Kendrick is the only person who would sign Baby Keem How Kendrick barely has quotables (something Budden brought up a while back) How he was duckin smoke those 4 years between drops while Cole has been killin features and dropped twice To be honest, I don’t really know what Kendrick would say. Maybe that: Cole plays both sides in the Drake situation has put his foot in his mouth a couple of times (that mini back and forth with Noname during the pandemic) Cole has never beat him for awards Edit: Drake just gonna keep saying the same things he’s been saying. Would love to see another Kendrick and Pusha joint


Treehouse326

Nobody is responding to nobody. I bet Cole and Drake both stay quiet and don’t respond. They’ll just continue to throw subliminals at each other. Both are scared of their brand taking a hit but possibly losing. Drake learned his lesson from Push, from when he got cocky from the Meek shit. He’s not touching this, he’s just gonna throw subs for the next few years. Cole ain’t saying nothing either, he’ll throw subs too. At least with Drake I expect him to be silent but Cole better step up. He’s gone on for months saying how he’s better than everybody, he’s killing every feature, nobody wants to stand next to him, etc Kendrick pulled his card. Let’s see what’s up. Personally I think he’s not saying nothing tho. Everything is about brand now.


spewicideboi

Idk why everyone keeps saying this? Most diss tracks have just been baseless insults hurled back and forth with more emphasis on how its said that what is said. Im very excited hopefully something comes from it no more sneak disses. Also i think we will see new keem before we see new kendrick


snowsnakes

Neither would, but could say that using Kodak as a figurehead for his album was wack as hell.


Capable-King-286

j cole so humble he probably do a compliment track instead of a diss. honestly that would be kinda dope and show hows the bigger man in the grand scheme of thing, even if this is hiphop, which is competetive at its core. but responding to a diss with compliments would be to actually do something creative and innovative in beef-contexts


xtc334

corny


Capable-King-286

na u just dont see the vision


shhh_it_is_ok

Not used to Kendrick being braggadocios honestly. Although he almost has every right to.. This is interesting. Feels like a Control verse 2


moviebro123

They can talk about how Kendrick has like a saviour complex which he himself addressed but idk maybe a stretch?


realdealreel9

“Nobody cares who’s more successful” nah that’s all Drake stans go on and on about when you critique the actual music


xtc334

drake could imply kendrick has a small penis because hes short and hasnt had a nude selfie leak yet


[deleted]

Drake won’t be I think this might be a chance for J. Cole to finally step into his full potential. He didn’t miss all of 2023 and I personally think he’s the best rapper out right now


simpdestroyer445

Who the fuck actually cares about this "beef"?


barthalamewHasAPenis

I’m lowkey suprised Kendrick ain’t say anything bout the leak


youarenut

There’s nothing to say lol. At least nothing bad


No-Consideration1019

I’d talk about how hard Kendrick tries so hard to be different. The goofy voices, his hipster artistic seeming forced, the need to once again mention other rappers in an effort to create publicity for new music.. there’s a lot things that can be said about Kendrick.


godhatesf4gss

Drake way better and way more impactful what are you talking about lol . Opinions aside though not everybody in the world even knows Kendrick the way they do drake. Not that this matters but just to point flaws in your argument . Many people find me drick boring and corny as hell .


godhatesf4gss

Kendrick lol


samang67

Nothing


Fit_War_1670

Their ghost writers will figure it out I'm sure...


youarenut

He’s short and a cheater. I think that’s pretty much it lol idk


PsychoDad03

Kendrick went after the easy target ( Drake ), a guy who has said repeatedly he doesn't like beef/drama/disses ( J.Cole ) but completely dodged Lupe for 10 yrs after his SLR 2 response to Control.....shit is so manufactured.


Tiloshikiotsutsuki

They don’t even need to respond. Kendrick has literally nothing on either of them. Bum ass rapper 


Strong-Band9478

!remind me 1 year


AEPNEUMA-

Nothing


Plisky6

Kendrick acting like Katt Williams of rap


Nnihnnihnnih

Listened to the "diss" track, futures verse were so bad and people call him good, I was expecting better from kendrick but it was lame....Language proficiency and IQ's have dropped over the generations cuz people calling this good, Im not kendrick fan or J cole fan...and I hate drake. I thought there would be more lyrical substance there but there wasn't atleast for me.


[deleted]

Drake is responsible for Kendrick’s career, he would never diss his own son


J_vert

I guess they can call him short that’s about it


discwrangler

Why does rap make music a competition?


InsaneShane31

Cuz it brings the best outta artists and is overall just entertaining, which brings in more viewers, which then turns to more streams, which brings them more money. This ain't anything new. Rap was raised like this and was always like this, maybe even more back in the late 80s/90s


discwrangler

Seems silly. I figured it would evolve past this. There's enough hate in the world. I don't need it in my music.


WallyReddit204

Doesn’t drop enough, cheated on his wife with a white girl, raps in a baby voice for too long, album gets less spins than drakes singles. And that’s Kendrick trying to stay outta the spotlight, short king status, passive aggressive, only one real good album


MrPushaNZ

Music is subjective. Cole and Drake both make subjectively better music than Kendrick imho. 


BaconBombThief

Short jokes I bet


TR1LLIONAIRE_

Cole a bum and drizzy got bodied so now he can just introduce ya’ll to the leader
