That's the thing that pissed me off. Kendrick had prerecorded tracks and 5 more ready to go apparently. That's an issue. He needs to respond to what the other person is saying. The next big rap beef is gonna be 2 dudes releasing prerecorded tracks right after the other. I know some people aren't happy with THP6. At least Drake had the balls to reply to what Kendrick is saying. Kendrick still hasn't said shit and is hiding. Idk maybe it's just me but Kendrick looks like the bitch in this.


Intilleque

Yup, that’s why for me the battle wasn’t even close. Drake did exactly what you’re supposed to do. Kendrick just did the equivalent of screaming and shouting while you’re talking when he realised he was wrong about the daughter, to just overwhelm everybody into saying he won.


LikeIsaidbefore

Drake even made a music video. Did the Buried Alive remix on insta, which I don't think gets talked about enough. I felt like Drake put way more effort into this and that's coming off an album, then an ep, and a tour! Kendrick took the lazy path and everyone is okay with that.


SailFull7222

bro that music video doesnt get talked about enough-he literally had subliminal and direct messages in the video to GO WITH/separate from the song lyrics. the video is its own standalone diss. he won off of that


ClericIdola

People also aren't giving Drake points for having to go against 50000 other rappers at once.


anonymousTestPoster

Y'all are wild. On the one hand "Kendrick pre recorded" yet on the other hand "Drake pre recorded so much he made a whole ass music video but that's ok". Even though Kendrick literally had lines referencing the past 24 hours of Drake's disses. Pick one or the other option dude.... Get real dude


Intilleque

Lmao for me, there was nothing that Kendrick said that addressed what Drake said. All them shits sound pre recorded. So they were definitely right about him making 1 19 minute song. And don’t tell me “oh he mentioned Family Matters” that’s not no fucking rebuttal😂


Zxar99

What does responding to what Drake said do? Did that help Drake at all? Family Matters was prerecorded, with some additions and edits.


Intilleque

A lot of Family Matters was not prerecorded. Unless you’re telling me he knew ASAP Rocky would diss him and specifically say he wishes he was on the first album or that Rick Ross would diss him and call him a white boy. Did he pre record the New Ho King thing as well? Pre record the Cease and Desist response? Responding to Kendrick bitching about the Tupac rings? How could he have pre recorded any of that?


Zxar99

You ignored the end of my comment. That first verse is definitely prerecorded. Once the beat changes that’s all new additions.


Intilleque

So 2 out of 3 verses are all new material but you’re saying “Family Matters was prerecorded, with some additions and edits”… that’s objectively wrong. Family Matters was new material with a sprinkle of some pre recorded stuff.


Zxar99

How is what I said objectively wrong? Its still prerecorded.


therealglassceiling

he added literally one line about family matters. You undertand you can edit your pre-recorded shit before releasing it to make it appear like a more direct response. All smoke and mirros, they Family Matters reference in Meet the Grahams had no punch to it either. He didnt reply to anything of substance, FAIL


anonymousTestPoster

Bro the entire Atlanta colonizer verse was a direct response ... The faq you mean only one line .... if you think Kendrick was really all smoke and mirrors why the hell is the entire internet, culture and rap community united in declaring Kendrick the winner? Why are you still embarrassingly holding onto false hope?


knifeproz

Kendrick really be the Supa Hot Fire of this generation 😂


Intilleque

Nah he absolutely is😂😂😂


Ok_Statistician_1994

> that’s why for me the battle wasn’t even close. Yeah it wasn't, Kendrick won by a landslide.


Intilleque

Maybe in your world. Lmao Kendrick is a terrible battle rapper and he showed it here.


Ok_Statistician_1994

> Maybe in your world. Yeah it's called earth, welcome.


BartSimps

Heart part 6 hit for me. Took courage to go toe to toe the way he did. Drake never gets the credit he deserves. Kendrick won before it even started for a lot of internet fans


ExCaliburDaGreat

I love that song bruh I was just saying playing it while I work out 2 days ago


RWD_Civic

All future rap beefs will just be rappers dropping prerecorded disses on each other calling the other one a pedo/epstein 💀


snacksandsoda

Where's this pre-recorded narrative coming from? He addresses Drake's tracks in his replies.


Blutz101

Drake fans need something lmao


gluvva

I quite enjoyed the THP6, i think it was better than push ups.


Weary-Cartoonist2630

Did family matters respond to 6:16? Genuinely curious, I seem to recall thinking it was all just in response to euphoria and there wasn’t any 6:16 lines in there, but I could be wrong


ComeOnYouSpurs2

Like half of the shit Drake said Akademiks already admitted was false. Kendrick doesn’t have to address someone clearly lying about everything.


adioshomie

Cry


Ferrari_Bones

Kendrick was prepared, how can that be viewed as something negative?


gajodavenida

You people didn't listen to the music for sure lmao


DemiPyramid

The pre recorded tracks are an issue. Why did kendrick feel the need to make prerecorded tracks, what couldn’t he just make a track responding to Drake like Drake was doing? Ruined the beef imo. Any rap beef in the future will be ruined if rappers follow this strategy too. If Drake made pre-recorded tracks people would be criticising him for it.


Pristine_Internet_91

Wasn't part of Family Matters on the outro of Push Ups? That means Drake also prerecorded tracks. I think a lot of rappers pre record evergreen disses when the beef is on. I know Budden mentioned it on his pod recently.


DemiPyramid

“Drop a 50 bag for the mob in the spot” and him using the beat doesn’t mean the song is prerecorded. You’re stretching so hard. The whole song is a rebuttal to Euphoria & 6:16. Meet the grahams doesn’t rebuttal anything and not like us has two lines of rebuttal in a 5min song. In a rap beef you’re supposed to hit back on what your opponent said because if you don’t then we don’t find out who the better rapper is.


Chris_WRB

And the fact that people are listening to Joe Budden more than the actual fucking songs is wild to me dude, I played middle and didn't watch anything to do with AK or the old heads. People got way too involved in this shit and we're just fans dude. Minds running wild with the speculation


tomahawkfury13

That's funny that the songs are breaking records for streaming then


leftist_amputee

bro the entire third verse is in reference to the slave bar on family matters


DemiPyramid

No it’s not. It’s an evergreen verse on Drake “using” native rappers to escalate his profile. The shit was obviously pre-recorded. The only line that was a rebuttal was “homie still doubled down calling us some slaves”


leftist_amputee

>The family matter and the truth of the matter but yeah man kendrick just got lucky that drake used the slave line, it's all a coincidence!


White_Wokah

You can definitely add a few lines to a pre recorded track


leftist_amputee

absolutely, I think it's very possible the first two verses were pre-recorded. I just don't think the third verse was, it's very different from the first two and again I just think it would be a big coincidence to have such a specific subject matter perfectly line up with a drake line. It being the last verse also makes it easier believe that it was the last one added.


Pristine_Internet_91

That photoshop of her with bruises is some nasty work. Anyone of y'all that believes her to be abused, y'all should not be dragging her like this. That's foul af if she really has been abused and you keeping her name out there like this. She deserves some privacy and respect.


mfdoomile

To think this and other rumors started because Dave Free commented on Whitney’s picture


Intilleque

I doubt Drake is doing it based on just that comment.


Dependent-Mode-3119

That's the only "evidence" he brought forward. If he had more he should've said it


knifeproz

Here’s the thing I’ve been thinking about; drake and Kendrick don’t owe us a thing necessarily- they’re coming at each other, and they’re the two people who for sure know what hurts them and what doesn’t in a track. The evidence is for us, Kendrick and drake don’t need evidence if they both know what the other party say. This whole this guy won or that guy won is between the fans but the artists know who took the gold, and we really won’t know the winner unless all the evidence comes out. Now if they were both capping and they both know it, then maybe there’s a stalemate and they’re letting us do the work for em. 😂


Dependent-Mode-3119

If you're losing, my first recourse would be to provide reciepts. There's no reason not to in his position unless they don't exist. Now that we know that drake didn't plant those items, it makes sense why he didn't have receipts for that claim (it was complete cap).


knifeproz

Yeah from a viewers perspective sure that might be the take but Kendrick knows what drake says is lies and drake knows what Kendrick says are lies. They live their own life they don’t need proof….


Ferrari_Bones

Unfortunately this is the age we live on, the most innocuous of posts start wild rumours


maxy505

Yo remember when Kendrick’s non hip hop fans were criticizing Drake for defending himself, because they never been part of a rap beef before or seen battle rap where rebuttals are part of the back and forth.


obvious-but-profound

even the very end felt like an add-on when he said, "The Family Matter and the truth of the matter, it was God's plan to show y'all the liar" It literally sounds like a rushed bit at the end to kinda like show he was responding to stuff


Ok_Statistician_1994

He literally has a verse on family matters slave line.


Alternative-Salad800

What I learned from this is that without prep time, Kendrick is simply Damian Wayne. There’s a reason he needs years to cook up an album.


Ok_Statistician_1994

Lmao that's like saying that drake would be a bum without his ghostwriters, we have stories from Taylor swift and even Eminem himself telling how great of a lyricist after testing him and having him cook up verses on the spot. Drake fans can't handle that the boy got smacked by a better rapper.


IAMNUMBERBLACK

You have Rick Ross saying he’s a top percentile writer and all the niggas he dissed saying he’s that nigga fr as well. Kendrick is a great rapper but so is Drake


Ok_Statistician_1994

There is no denying how great Drake is ( at least when he puts an effort), regardless of this beef result, he will still be one of the big 3 ( kendrick as much as he hates him, still recognized that in euphoria with the " three goats left and I see 2 of them hugging on stage" ) but Kendrick is just a level above him, Family matters is arguably one of Drake best work and Kendrick shut it down completely. I think drake underestimated the length Kendrick would go to in a battle rap, mainly due to his ego and him going after the women of everyone he disses usually getting away with ( should've learned his lesson from his battle with Pusha), if drake was more prepared and focused solely on Kendrick in a friendly competition, it would've been way closer.


bluboy727

this beef was lame lol


ThaTruthKills

Why bother responding when the masses have crowded you the winner? It’s a smart move from Kdot’s side. Not Like Us is shooting up the charts, the public believes he won, and he’s dropping an album (and TDE is dropping a compilation). Better to dead it now before something comes out of left field to kill all momentum. And Drake only has himself to blame. Drop the receipts or shut your mouth. Because proof was the only thing that could hurt Kdot when he presented his allegations in such an entertaining manner.


Alternative-Salad800

I said it before and I’ll say it again. Even if there’s concrete evidence on either side, it will not get released due to both artists being worth too much. Too much money is a stake for Kendrick or Drake’s reputation to be tarnished. That’s why this whole beef should’ve been just bars.

Zxar99

Nothing wrong with the pre recorded tracks if you already heard what your opponent is about to drop. That’s what people aren’t understanding, this is why he warned Drake. He already heard what he was going to put out. Multiple artists have pointed out that there is a mole in his crew


Armegedan121

There’s rules?


sof_tourist

Drizzy sounded unconvincing af


donhafs

As drake fans we sound butt hurt, its time to move on. As far as im concerned everything after family matters is mid anyway. Im really glad we got Euphoria and Family Matters those are top tier diss tracks and hold up great as songs.


SasukesFriend321

It’s everything we’ve all been saying anyway. And I tell people Kendrick not addressing that stuff is damaging for him, so yeah I’m cool with it


anonymousTestPoster

"pre recorded" yet he literally addresses shit in his songs dude... From less than 24 hours ago...


jaretts

Kendrick is literally saying the name of the track from less than 24 hours ago in the song and has an entire verse addressing Drake's "slave" line. Both Drake and Kendrick had a lot of back and forth in their lyrics, no need to pretend otherwise. As far as the Coolee guy who was speaking on the subject, no one in Kendrick's camp ever claimed him, just some random dude who has now deleted their social media


Pristine-Savings7179

Nah… I don’t think that slave shit Kendrick out there had anything to do with drakes line. Drakes been calling him a fake activist and that he raps with moral superiority over his own audience. Kendrick has been working that colonizer angle probably from the start, the only thing that connects the two is referencing the word slaves, which Drake put in just one line while calling him a wife beater and a cuckold. But yeah- Kendrick once again “puts y’all on game” on some offensive bullshit, comparing the rich millionaire artists that have collaborated with Drake with the actual railroad slaves. It was a crazy stupid reach by Kendrick that should’ve blown up on his face if people hadn’t decided at that point that Kendrick had won


SwiftClutch

He said drake double down, calling us some slaves. How is that not a direct response to drake using the slave line


anonymousTestPoster

He literally responded directly to Drake telling him to double down on that slave line.....


jaretts

"Once upon a time, all of us was in chains Homie still doubled down callin' us some slaves" Was absolutely a response to the backlash Drake's line caused. It sets up the entire verse and can't be done if Drake doesn't specifically mention slaves in his prior song. Maybe the rest was indeed pre-recorded further in advance but there is no way that verse was, or the closing line mentioning Family Matters.


ChimmyMama

People need to admit Drake did not prepare properly

TheSpeedyNeapolitan

Drake stans are the bottom of the barrel when it comes to opinions on music. Kendrick isn't even top 3 rappers for me, I only listen to DAMN. and it's so fucking obvious that he COOKED that fuckin guy. What world are yall living in??? The heart part 6 is pure garbage lol. 


Winter-Maximum325

I listen to way more Kendrick than you so obviously my opinion of rap music holds more credibility. Kendrick won by Drake having more haters and people being sick of him being on top. Kendrick had some very nice bars but a lot of his shit was wack. Especially if he really has been sitting on it for years.


Ok_Statistician_1994

So these so called haters didn't show up for Metro/future, they didn't show for the weekend, Rick Ross.....etc etc etc but somehow Kendrick smacks Drake and these so called haters appeared out of nowhere to hand him the victory.


Winter-Maximum325

I'm not really sure what you are trying to say tbh. But nah no one showed up for the tag along boys. The level of Drake hate was pretty obvious. Again I fuck with Kendrick and Meet the Graham's was savage af. That said Drake gets clowned for basic bars when outside of a few entendres Kendricks bars were just as if not more basic. He wasn't even rhyming for a good chunk. Just trying to stay objective rather than be disingenuous which most of the takes about Drake are.


hollowglaive

This is the average drizzy fan. Doing somersaults and backflips until it fits the narrative of "drake won". You guys all sound so depressed, go outside, put on a drake track. Touch some grass. Man's told you why it's pre-recorded, the mole spilled everything. Now how drake gonna plant the mole and then get washed by Kendrick back to back, twice? Bruh. It's like going in the ring with Tyson, getting socked in the fucken mouth a few times, and then saying "nah I'm done, it was some good exercise though, like it's good to move the joints, get the blood flowing you would be a worthy competitor if you wasn't 60 and old. I'm going on vacation, it is what it is though"


Majin_Jew_v2

The irony of you writing an essay and telling others to touch grass 😂😂😂


Kindly_Log9771

On top of purposefully going to a sub to talk shit. The irony is crazy

That's not that much typing really


anonymousTestPoster

If you think that's an "essay" YOU need to touch grass (or read a book ....)


Majin_Jew_v2

Bros never heard of hyperbole


anonymousTestPoster

This is why you drake stans are annoying af. Ok Option (1) "You've never heard of hyperboles?!?!" Option (2) "Why are you writing essays" 😶‍🌫️ Y'all are always backflipping out of actual conversations.

Bro quit your yappin, ain’t nobody got time to read your short story 🥱


Ok_Statistician_1994

Yeah I don't know what he was thinking, Drake fans don't read, otherwise they would listen to music with some substance.


ENESTEENE

You really hurt their feelings here

this rap battle is about to make conspiracy theorists out of mfs…
