OnMyCoolJ Posted May 8 Posted May 8 Whoever merged all these tracks into one thread needs to unmerge it. Kendrick literally having a huge hit (actually 2) and here they are tucked away in some nonsense group thread. 13 1

The thing is Drake said he was going to take a break so it's not like he won't take time off to regroup anyways. Kendrick is about to launch a new era so this is going to benefit him even more in oncoming months. 2

Gesamtkunstwerk Posted May 8 Posted May 8 All in all, isn't Drake just a Diddy lite ? They go in the same circles, their labels clearly bribe the Grammys, Drake's daddy is Lucian Grainge, Diddy's daddy is Clive Davis, "allegedly" involved with minors, work for white music executives to access and extract money from hip hop, both going the rapper/business man path with multiple non-music ventures No idea if he as bad as Diddy, but their role in the industry is essentially the same

Quote 41. According to Mr. Jones, whenever Defendant Grainge visited Mr. Combs at his homes, it would be in the evening, and he and Mr. Combs would disappear for hours in Mr. Combs bedroom. Diddy is sleeping with Drakes label daddy ? We can connect the dots pretty easily

legendofthetour Posted May 8 Posted May 8 I'm so conflicted, the hip-hop head in me knows how insanely bad it would be for Drake to sue Kendrick for this, it would be image ruining for a rapper to sue another rapper for a diss record. However, Drake is way too corporate and big of a brand to let a song like Not Like Us potentially become a summer anthem, the song reeks of a slander & defamation lawsuit. 1

4RCH1M3D35 Posted May 8 Posted May 8 After being on social media during this rap beef I can now see how Drake got so famous. There are thousands of troll accounts telling me that I didn't hear what I heard and every track Drake dropped was superior to Dot's. It's very orchestrated and if I didn't stand on bidnizz I would think my ears were lying. 4

ATRL Moderator Samson Posted May 8 ATRL Moderator Posted May 8 Re: the last page… The only reason why numbers are even being discussed (asides from acknowledging how popular these songs are) is because Drake and his fans have constantly justified his place in hip-hop with numbers and not critical acclaim—which hasn't been great since 2015. Kendrick has received universal acclaim since Section 80. That Drake is by far the most commercially successful rapper but he still doesn't get universal acclaim like Kendrick eats away at him and his fans. His peers can smell it—remember in 2021 when he rescinded his nominations at the Grammys after he got nominated for the rap categories and none of the general categories (which effectively took away another rapper's chance at nomination)? Stunts like those probably entertained his fans but I bet you that his peers and some suits didn't appreciate that. Drake and his fans don't get to talk about how well he streams to justify his spot in the pantheon of hip-hop and then try to flip it against Kendrick when he starts breaking records. "Kendrick's biggest peak is a song talking about another man!!!" Then why isn't your commercial GOAT outstreaming him at his own game? His disses are on the same platforms as Kendrick's. He's the one who decided to take "Like That" to heart and tried to pull a "Back to Back" on Kendrick and then got his own strategy flipped against him. He's the one who thought he could "Story of Adidon" Kendrick and turn it into a gossip situation instead of keeping it a bar-for-bar situation. Is this your 69 God? 5 4
Specter Posted May 8 Posted May 8 One of the minor tangential mysteries from Drake's track (Family Matters) is his biggest accusation being that K is a woman beater...but then on the same song he shouts out Chris Brown? And then on TH6 he says whoever was feeding K info was a clown, but then later says HE was planting info?? Mcmcldmd Are these ghostwriters not talking to each other on that free to edit Google Doc or 1 13

Battle rappers slander and defame each other right to their faces

If Drake wants to win a defamation case, he probably shouldn't have claimed that he and his team gave Kendrick's team false information. 3 2 2

Drake and his team publicly alleged that they fed Kendrick's team information. Drake can't sue for defamation for information that he gave him Even if he claims he only leaked false info about a fake daughter he would need to prove that and that would open the door for him to have to prove ALL of the allegations are false. It's BADDD for OVO fans this summer omg 15 1
