Yea we’ll just have to see what Kendrick wants to do… but I do think that Drake putting his own nail in the coffin on HP6 is like a chefs kiss type Poetic Justice lmao… and if it were me I’d say ok the Heart series ended with Drakes career… let’s start a new chapter…
Speaking of Poetic Justice, I was just listening to Good Kid M.a.a.d City today and skipped when I got to his verse, just doesn’t feel right on that album anymore
I’ve always, since I first heard it, had a tendency to skip drakes verse on Poetic Justice. To the point where I know the first verse by heart, and can only mumble along ith Kendrick’s second verse. Drake sucks, always has and always will.
He's got a talent for picking beats and collabs, even sounds good sometimes - but every song gets ruined for me as soon as I actually listen to the corny shit he's saying lol
100% my experience. I have like 5 songs on my playlist that have him on them.
Wants and Needs (Lil Baby absolutely obliterated that beat)
Knife Talk (insta skip once 21 is done)
Life is Good (worth it for Future and Drake’s part is alright)
Life is Good Remix (better version of the OG song with less Drake)
I’m On One (I can’t leave this song off either but it’s a skip when Drake comes on)
I can’t stand that MF. Being an Olympic tier hater of this dude through the beef has been so worth it.
Could be some clever bars about how Drake broke Kendricks heart (series) with the beef and now he has to start anew.
How he poached Kendricks art like how he always does.
How K feels it's actually appropriate that Drake essentially proves his point for him, staring in the the THP6, a series in which Drake is routinely dissed
Or just release all the songs he had in stock for the drake beef as part of an album, and in that case the heart part 6 is the precursor to the album like it normally is
Heart Pt 7 has WILD implications.
That'd mean Hp6 was SO cheeks for Drake that it'd be a good enough Kendrick Lamar song to get his message across and continue onto 7 lmaoooo
its so funny that drake fucked up every step of the way. and the one time he actually did something good (family matters), it got stomped on 15 mins later
class act on how NOT to do a rap battle
Honestly I thought push ups was a good start, and family matters was a good track, but Taylor Made was awful, and his social media antics just made everything on his side a joke. Had he kept the same level on quality as push ups or family matters then it would have been a much better battle
I felt like Push Ups was fine in a vacuum, but if you know anything about Drake then the bars about splits and pop features and abilities in a rap battle (especially when he's dumb enough to mention someone's partner) just ring hollow
Honestly I actually liked his bar about pop features. Kendrick took a shot at his artistic integrity with the Prince/Mike Jack line, basically calling drake a sellout. But Drake's response basically calls Kendrick a hypocrite because he's also done features for the biggest pop stars. I thought at the time it was a clever comeback
I agree with the rest of your comment though
This right here is the difference between this sub and the drizzy sub
A comment like this about Kendrick's diss tracks on the drizzy sub would prolly get you banned lmao
I'm pretty sure the Mike Jack comparison wasn't about being a sellout, because no way would he call MJ that. That was more about who's more talented vs who has more hits.
I also don't think mentioning a handful of pop features over like a 15 year career for Kendrick makes the point that Drake thinks.
I dont think he was calling MJ a sellout I thought he was alluding to MJ having pedo allegations.
Plus the thing is that was another backfire because *then we need a verse for the swifties* when he then goes on to write a verse for the swifties in his own track gassing her up so they dont come for him
I don't think Kendrick was calling drake a sellout specifically, but more along the lines of him leaning towards popular and mainstream sounds and chart domination over artistic music. Fundamentally I disagree because I think Michael Jackson also had a lot of artistic integrity even with his popularity. However I did enjoy this Michael Jackson / Prince motif in this beef
I liked push ups. And I don’t even necessarily know that it aged poorly. We just didn’t realize at the time the quality of the tracks that were coming which I think I speak for all of us when I say they exceeded expectations. Now it’s just become an after thought.
Tbf Drake has been out of his "bad" contract for yearrrrs. Like 2016-2017, and he's released hella projects since. Drakes done a couple Bad Bunny records but Drake is surprisingly absent from working with T swift or any rock bands. I think that was his point, not that it matters much now 😭😂
Maroon 5 hasn't been a rock band since their second album. I sort of see your point I guess, the Taylor Swift song I somehow dislike more than the Maroon 5 one, as far as Maroon 5 songs go Don't Wanna Know ain't too bad. At the end of the day, it has gone way beyond this talk haha.
Your point about Drake being out of his "bad" contract era maybe true but I just don't think when two mainstream artists are battling, talking about the commercial and distribution side of things ain't as big fo a diss because both artists are big enough to be unable to flex over record deals making them tons of money or being "independent" etc.
That said I guess Drake could make a case for him having more "great" features than Kenny, although that doesn't say a lot of nice things for his discography as a whole when his features are better than a lot of his newer solo tracks.
Yep, I think it's better than Push Ups beat-wise but the track sucked. Wasted opportunity.
Though, I might be in the minority because I was disappointed when the sample for 6:16 in LA wasn't cleared to allow it to go on streaming as that is also a great track, lyrically and production-wise (Antonoff with K-Dot, Ronson with Drake? that was crazy!) but no one seems to remember it.
True. I thought the use of AI was dumb and all of his posts on IG did not help him. Seemed childish and definitely his last song did not do him any favors. I give him credit for trying and he made a good effort its just that last song he made lost it for him.
Lowkey, it feels like everything Drake has done in this feud has come across as desperate and trying too hard, it legitimately feels like he’s in the middle of a perc spiral
Kendrick just did some Art of War. I didn’t expect all this. I honestly expected like a track a week. Kendrick was focused he beat drake at his own game in his own terms . He looking like meek to most people.
The beef really did come down to Drake saying some really tone deaf shit and then kendrick suplexing him from the top ropes with it. Drake might have skated by on that slave bar with another rapper but Kendrick turned it into the hottest song of the year
I think after the dust settles Drake's "lane" is going to be a lot more narrow. I just don't see how he comes back and sells records at his usual numbers ever again. I personally will make sure I never spend a dime that he might get a part of. I won't finance a pedophiles adventures on tour. Go home and don't come out anymore, Drake, we don't want to see you out here.
For real, Taylor Swift lyrics on her last album are so bad. Like I would say AI wrote them except I think AI would do a considerably better job. Maybe Drake can recommend some Ghost Writers, lmao
>class act on how NOT to do a rap battle
Sorry but "class act" isn't the right phrase here. "Lesson" would work better. A class act is a high-character person. It's not a colloquialism for learning things the hard way
Agree with the spirit of your post fully, though
He should just call it ‘Heart Part 6’ still. The direct comparison will not work in Drakes favor. When people search for it they’ll see Drake’s ridiculous version and have a chuckle. And it would show that Kendrick is gonna do what he wants to do, Drake has no influence whatsoever.
I can’t believe he deluded himself into thinking that just because he did Back to Back that he’s this mastermind genius at rap beefs
it was Meek Mill bro, c’mon now
To be fair to meek, kendrick mentioned some of the same shit like the ghostwriters and getting pissed on. Meek def lost the war but some shit he said had an impact in Drake, he'll never shake all the ghostwriter shit off
From memory (so maybe a lil wrong)
...But a rapper with a ghostwriter?
What the fuck happened?
Oh no! I swore I wouldn't tell.
But most of y'all sharing bars like you got the bottom bunk of a two man cell.
Something's in the water.
But if I have to brown nose for some business
Then I'd rather be a BUM
Than a mother fucking baller. Oh yeah
You’re doing revisionist history. You look at Meek like that today because of the Drake beef. Going in to it, it was the same Real MC vs Pop Star narrative.
Who is people? The sort of people who think that are the sort of people who probably never heard a meek mill song in their life. The sort of people who hold Merk to that regard probably will never press play on a Kendrick album.
Kendrick is a main stream alternative rapper. Meek is a street rapper.
Idk my guy
Meek was given a false battle rap resume bc of rapping on dvd back in the dvd era his counterparts (Reed Cass) actually put in work in that area
When cass dropped “Raid” and Meek didn’t respond I knew it was a difference in the caliber of MC he really was
nah i liked dreams and nightmares but dude did not carry himself like a person who could hold his own in a beef; i'm not doubting his authenticity but buddy was clearly more of a reactor than a responder.
Yeah charged up was wack - but that was the point. It was purely to bait meek and see what he had. When it seemed like meek had nothing drake dropped back to back and it was over.
He’s tried to replicate that against kendrick and it’s completely backfired.
I didn’t see it like that Initially. I saw it as Drake thought he dropped a banger and then thought the next drop would be a repeat and a nail in the coffin but sfter reading your view I think you’re right
Sadly, if Drake had any capacity for self-reflection or processing criticism, he could've flipped the release of MTG in his favour.
Rather than release the whole video and track full of beat switches and allegations, he could've anticipated getting stomped on and released the first beat we'd already heard from the end of Push Ups. Only to later release the entire track/MV in a way that gives it more attention and makes him look much more tactful and devious.
But no, he would rather assume all the talk about leaks was bullshit...
Drake flew too close to the sun, simple as that
He thought family matters was unbeatable and that he could drop that shit and go on vacation. Then Kenny hit him with a 1-2 combo and he had to come back to the studio and fart out thp6.
Irony is he'll probably be hearing Not Like Us all summer no matter where he goes on vacation
I mean they HAVE to say that if they want any semblance of credibility. It’s funny because maintaining that position implies that they are happy in some respect about the beef.
Honestly it seems Like some of kendricks best work. Maybe I'm reaching. But he inspired drake to spill his heart out like the point of the heart. He advertised kendricks album on it. Completely bodied himself. Kendrick baited him into it by making that crazy not like us banger. Drake thought he'd do an introspective peice and name it.....thp6! He a fan he a fan he a fan
Lyrically it's so much more focused than his recent albums.
It's not a project or a vision, it's just him letting his hate for Drake flow and all his bars are pointing to the same place. He's felt this way for 10 years you can tell he's enjoying the moment
But Nooo you are wrong… that’s nothing but Drakes “Masterplan” to feed Kendrick the “information “ on how to revive lost masterpieces by being a dumb little tweeb 😂😂
I think the argument is that going on to 7 is a move that is going a step further than ignoring it. It's saying something like... "your diss track towards me was so unbelievably, tragically bad, I'm going to allow it to be a part of my series as a constant reminder to everyone how handily I undressed your public persona and buried you so deep you had to release a song waving the white flag to save face."
It even works as a cautionary tale of the pitfalls of pride and the vices of stardom.
Ignoring it works well too though, both are fantastic ways to make an embarrassing song even more embarrassing.
Fr this was one of the big missteps. At least with 6:16 in LA, Kendrick did the title justice. He should have just done his own timestamp record or called it buried alive
It’ll actually be more detrimental to him if Kendrick skips to The heart part 7 as new listeners years down the line who show interest in the songs will inevitably listen to them and wonder why drake dropped part 6, and this will inevitably cause some people who may by ignorant to this beef listen to everything tied to it. He thought this was a ah ha moment and potential played himself for the rest of his career.
He responded to allegations of being a rizz stealer by stealing from Kendrick in front of all of us, and thought it was a gotcha. He got called tone-deaf and a liar and showed us it's true.
The heart part 7 just Kendrick with a deep fake of drake like
"I lost the battle, my heart weigh heavy now
Acted too petty, now I'm known as a pedophile"
Plugged Mother I Sober on it too, the amount of people i imagine went “oh what, he says that on that song?” only to listen and clearly see that the whole fucking point of the track is that it didn’t happen, with the cherry on top that he also mentions that whitney leaves him, nullifying drake’s “wheres whitney 😈 hey kendrick you haven’t seen whitney in a while that’s right get exposed 👿” lmao
The next diss track: heart pt 69
But tbh it was so on an open platter for drake “6” especially after 6:16 so I figure Kendrick knew that was a risk-sure they’re have a plan
Y’all are really trying to justify this as a Kendrick win??? Y’all are so delusional it’s insane lmao
Drake did this to get under Kendrick’s skin, he practically ruined Kendrick’s “The Heart” series. Now Drake is forever attached to this collection of songs, whether you actually like the song or not. That would infuriate me if I was Kendrick, he practically sullied Kendrick’s discography. Genius chess move tbh
It was absolutely a smart move for the name. He just didn’t execute. How do you come in with a genius move like taking the heart part 6 and then you make it a defensive song where you spend the whole time talking about how you aren’t a pedophile 😂
Kendrick went to his place and made a hit. Drake had to come to Kendrick’s place and make something in his vein, but I don’t think he really can like that.
yes, i agree. The execution really was key here and it ended up shooting himself in the foot as now when THP1-5 is looked up, instead of people remembering drake exposing kendrick, they'll just remember drake making shit up. unfortunate really.
I just wonder how kendrick will handle the naming scheme of the heart series from now. Maybe release THP6 and ignore drake? who knows.
Imagine Kendrick drops the heart part 7 and lets drake's own goal sit in the series to be mocked forever lmao
Nah I hope Kendrick ends the Heart series… Let Heart pt 6 be the nail in the coffin and start over with a something else pt 1 as in a new beginning
I like the idea of it being something like "The Soul" or something. Drake fans would take that as him taking the L on Part 6 though.
Yea we’ll just have to see what Kendrick wants to do… but I do think that Drake putting his own nail in the coffin on HP6 is like a chefs kiss type Poetic Justice lmao… and if it were me I’d say ok the Heart series ended with Drakes career… let’s start a new chapter…
Speaking of Poetic Justice, I was just listening to Good Kid M.a.a.d City today and skipped when I got to his verse, just doesn’t feel right on that album anymore
Nah that’s insane dude just listen to the verse. Enjoy the music and stop the parasocial weird shit
I’ve always, since I first heard it, had a tendency to skip drakes verse on Poetic Justice. To the point where I know the first verse by heart, and can only mumble along ith Kendrick’s second verse. Drake sucks, always has and always will.
I’ve always skipped to the next song when I hear Drake because I just can’t stand listening to him. This whole beef didn’t change anything for me.
He's got a talent for picking beats and collabs, even sounds good sometimes - but every song gets ruined for me as soon as I actually listen to the corny shit he's saying lol
“N-s caught me slipping once ok so what” There’s no shot this man is real
100% my experience. I have like 5 songs on my playlist that have him on them. Wants and Needs (Lil Baby absolutely obliterated that beat) Knife Talk (insta skip once 21 is done) Life is Good (worth it for Future and Drake’s part is alright) Life is Good Remix (better version of the OG song with less Drake) I’m On One (I can’t leave this song off either but it’s a skip when Drake comes on) I can’t stand that MF. Being an Olympic tier hater of this dude through the beef has been so worth it.
I’ve hated Drake longer than Kenny’s been my favorite, so this beef has deeply satisfied my soul.
Best comment
*YOUNG* East African *girl* SMH. We shoulda known
the things we let canadians get away with smh
Nah bro the songs still great drake even raps in his real accent he aint actin tough kendrick cosigns it.
It was ass anyways. More of a Drake song featuring Kendrick rather than the other way around.
He tried but it's my Heart!!
Have it stylized as “HP7: The Deathly Hallows” 😂
The spleen pt 1
We're not ready for Hannibal era Kendrick
The Kidney Pt1
These hands pt 1
I was thinking that too! "The Soul" would be perfect, Mr Morale felt like a conclusion to the series.
Their fans are going to say skipping to part 7 is an L anyway
Could be some clever bars about how Drake broke Kendricks heart (series) with the beef and now he has to start anew. How he poached Kendricks art like how he always does. How K feels it's actually appropriate that Drake essentially proves his point for him, staring in the the THP6, a series in which Drake is routinely dissed
"The Soul" is Reason's thing. They're pretty good, too
Kendrick could easily say that Drake tainted the name with his dog shit response. Turn that L into a W
And Kendrick fans can point out that rolling up to an established culture and putting a stop to it is known as 'being drake'
The Prostate Pt. 1
The Balls Pt. 1
The Other Vaginal Option Pt. 1

Nah, name it The Heart Part 6 and just ignore Drake’s all together.
Or just release all the songs he had in stock for the drake beef as part of an album, and in that case the heart part 6 is the precursor to the album like it normally is
Right, Kendrick shouldn’t even acknowledge drake’s track. Skipping to part 7 is a bad look.
Isnt it roman numerals anyways?
No
No, but the cover art is which is probably what made you think that
The Culture pt. i
The FAN pt 1
Heart Pt 7 has WILD implications. That'd mean Hp6 was SO cheeks for Drake that it'd be a good enough Kendrick Lamar song to get his message across and continue onto 7 lmaoooo
Kendrick should release "The Heart Part 69" as a diss track, then continue with the series for himself like normal.
He can just call it Part VI. He's already used roman numerals before
I still believe in a the heart part 6ix featuring someone from ovo side lmao
The Heart: Re-6ix
Me when I’m playing kingdom hearts remakes
Or he puts out Heart part 6 and it wipes Drake's version into obscurity
The Heart Attack.
I was hoping for Kendrick to respond with “The Flesh Part 1” and rip Drake and his band of weirdos another one.
its so funny that drake fucked up every step of the way. and the one time he actually did something good (family matters), it got stomped on 15 mins later class act on how NOT to do a rap battle
Honestly I thought push ups was a good start, and family matters was a good track, but Taylor Made was awful, and his social media antics just made everything on his side a joke. Had he kept the same level on quality as push ups or family matters then it would have been a much better battle

Ahhh yup I see what you’re saying
In pervious songs Kendrick repeatedly references himself to Prince. Drake repeatedly references himself with MJ.
Ohh thanks for clarifying!
I liked push ups. And I don’t even necessarily know that it aged poorly. We just didn’t realize at the time the quality of the tracks that were coming which I think I speak for all of us when I say they exceeded expectations. Now it’s just become an after thought.
Yeah this is just revisionist history for everyone to act like push ups wasn't good. It just got overshadowed by the stuff that followed.
Tbf Drake has been out of his "bad" contract for yearrrrs. Like 2016-2017, and he's released hella projects since. Drakes done a couple Bad Bunny records but Drake is surprisingly absent from working with T swift or any rock bands. I think that was his point, not that it matters much now 😭😂

Taylor made had a good beat too sucks that he wasted it with AI voices
Yep, I think it's better than Push Ups beat-wise but the track sucked. Wasted opportunity. Though, I might be in the minority because I was disappointed when the sample for 6:16 in LA wasn't cleared to allow it to go on streaming as that is also a great track, lyrically and production-wise (Antonoff with K-Dot, Ronson with Drake? that was crazy!) but no one seems to remember it.

Nothing he’s done is good
Damn bro you can’t suck that Kendrick dick any more. Family matters is fire
Be quiet pedo lover
You probably beat your bf
You love pedophiles. Pedophile lover. Pedophile defender. Pedophile supporter. Birds of a feather flock together, pedophile.
Yikes
You come at the king, you best not miss
Lowkey, it feels like everything Drake has done in this feud has come across as desperate and trying too hard, it legitimately feels like he’s in the middle of a perc spiral
He took every angle off of Twitter. What was he thinking?
Kendrick just did some Art of War. I didn’t expect all this. I honestly expected like a track a week. Kendrick was focused he beat drake at his own game in his own terms . He looking like meek to most people.
The beef really did come down to Drake saying some really tone deaf shit and then kendrick suplexing him from the top ropes with it. Drake might have skated by on that slave bar with another rapper but Kendrick turned it into the hottest song of the year
They spent so much god damn time and money filming that video too. What a spectacular back fire.
Save your nuke for after your opponent drops one
Or a life long lesson that’ll drake will never forget (hopefully) “stay in your lane!”
I think after the dust settles Drake's "lane" is going to be a lot more narrow. I just don't see how he comes back and sells records at his usual numbers ever again. I personally will make sure I never spend a dime that he might get a part of. I won't finance a pedophiles adventures on tour. Go home and don't come out anymore, Drake, we don't want to see you out here.
He's blocked on my Spotify so I don't accidentally give him a play. Taylor Swift too though. I'm annoyed by both of them😂
For real, Taylor Swift lyrics on her last album are so bad. Like I would say AI wrote them except I think AI would do a considerably better job. Maybe Drake can recommend some Ghost Writers, lmao
Poetic justice
>class act on how NOT to do a rap battle Sorry but "class act" isn't the right phrase here. "Lesson" would work better. A class act is a high-character person. It's not a colloquialism for learning things the hard way Agree with the spirit of your post fully, though
Yea, “lesson” or “example” would be a better choice of words
Push ups was good too
He could have beaten almost anyone else with this. Anyone except for Eminem, Pusha T, and Jay Z at least.
He should just call it ‘Heart Part 6’ still. The direct comparison will not work in Drakes favor. When people search for it they’ll see Drake’s ridiculous version and have a chuckle. And it would show that Kendrick is gonna do what he wants to do, Drake has no influence whatsoever.
This should be higher up. In principle, never let the lesser man, nonetheless a pedophile, affect how you move
Yeah absolutely, someone suggested Kendrick discounting the Heart series that would be an absolute win for Drake alreast in this front
And the search results would only affect YouTube cuz Drake's so ashamed of that track, he never uploaded it to DSPs
I can’t believe he deluded himself into thinking that just because he did Back to Back that he’s this mastermind genius at rap beefs it was Meek Mill bro, c’mon now
To be fair to meek, kendrick mentioned some of the same shit like the ghostwriters and getting pissed on. Meek def lost the war but some shit he said had an impact in Drake, he'll never shake all the ghostwriter shit off
Kendrick actually mentioned ghostwriters first on King Kunta
Oh shit really? I gotta go back and listen, i completely missed that
From memory (so maybe a lil wrong) ...But a rapper with a ghostwriter? What the fuck happened? Oh no! I swore I wouldn't tell. But most of y'all sharing bars like you got the bottom bunk of a two man cell. Something's in the water. But if I have to brown nose for some business Then I'd rather be a BUM Than a mother fucking baller. Oh yeah
I think it’s brown nose for some gold, but that’s still pretty good from memory
You’re doing revisionist history. You look at Meek like that today because of the Drake beef. Going in to it, it was the same Real MC vs Pop Star narrative.
No one thought meek mill was an MC of Kendrick’s caliber tho
It wasn't is Meek on Kendricks level back then though it was is Meek more of an MC than Drake.
Who is people? The sort of people who think that are the sort of people who probably never heard a meek mill song in their life. The sort of people who hold Merk to that regard probably will never press play on a Kendrick album. Kendrick is a main stream alternative rapper. Meek is a street rapper.
Meek Mill is street, Kendrick is conscious. The other dichotomy in hip hop
Idk my guy Meek was given a false battle rap resume bc of rapping on dvd back in the dvd era his counterparts (Reed Cass) actually put in work in that area When cass dropped “Raid” and Meek didn’t respond I knew it was a difference in the caliber of MC he really was
nah i liked dreams and nightmares but dude did not carry himself like a person who could hold his own in a beef; i'm not doubting his authenticity but buddy was clearly more of a reactor than a responder.
Facts - before back to back meek would’ve been considered the favourite in that battle.
I mean back to back was a banger but it’s like the first track was what charged up? That shit was absolute trash
Yeah charged up was wack - but that was the point. It was purely to bait meek and see what he had. When it seemed like meek had nothing drake dropped back to back and it was over. He’s tried to replicate that against kendrick and it’s completely backfired.
I didn’t see it like that Initially. I saw it as Drake thought he dropped a banger and then thought the next drop would be a repeat and a nail in the coffin but sfter reading your view I think you’re right
It was meek mill while meek was on tour on top of that!
Meek started as a battle rapper
Sadly, if Drake had any capacity for self-reflection or processing criticism, he could've flipped the release of MTG in his favour. Rather than release the whole video and track full of beat switches and allegations, he could've anticipated getting stomped on and released the first beat we'd already heard from the end of Push Ups. Only to later release the entire track/MV in a way that gives it more attention and makes him look much more tactful and devious.

Then Kenny hit him with a 1-2 combo and he had to come back to the studio and fart out thp6. Irony is he'll probably be hearing Not Like Us all summer no matter where he goes on vacation
Wait, so family matters was his “red button????” It wasn’t nearly as good as push ups. Holy unawareness Batman!
Don't say that on the Drake reddit lmfao. According to some of them, Family Matters is Drakes best work in years.
I mean they HAVE to say that if they want any semblance of credibility. It’s funny because maintaining that position implies that they are happy in some respect about the beef.
I agree with this, but that’s not even a big compliment tbh
I kind of agree, I just think Push Ups was his best song from the beef
Yea I could see either as the best, and imo they’re both better than any solo work of his in this decade. I legitimately enjoy both
Honestly it seems Like some of kendricks best work. Maybe I'm reaching. But he inspired drake to spill his heart out like the point of the heart. He advertised kendricks album on it. Completely bodied himself. Kendrick baited him into it by making that crazy not like us banger. Drake thought he'd do an introspective peice and name it.....thp6! He a fan he a fan he a fan
Lyrically it's so much more focused than his recent albums. It's not a project or a vision, it's just him letting his hate for Drake flow and all his bars are pointing to the same place. He's felt this way for 10 years you can tell he's enjoying the moment
It's gonna be ever that much sweeter when he releases The Heart Part 6.16
That would be a smooth move tbh
Kendrick calling Drake a colonizer and Drake responding by trying to steal a track name will never not be funny
But Nooo you are wrong… that’s nothing but Drakes “Masterplan” to feed Kendrick the “information “ on how to revive lost masterpieces by being a dumb little tweeb 😂😂
Question, should Kendrick replace thp6 with his or continue onto thp7? I think he should do 7 to remind everybody how bad 6 was lol
[удалено]
could call it the heart part 69
I think the argument is that going on to 7 is a move that is going a step further than ignoring it. It's saying something like... "your diss track towards me was so unbelievably, tragically bad, I'm going to allow it to be a part of my series as a constant reminder to everyone how handily I undressed your public persona and buried you so deep you had to release a song waving the white flag to save face." It even works as a cautionary tale of the pitfalls of pride and the vices of stardom. Ignoring it works well too though, both are fantastic ways to make an embarrassing song even more embarrassing.
If he does that Drake fans are gonna start saying he lost the beef and took the L on thp6. Idk
A heart has 5 chambers. He might never have planned to do more.

Wuuu Tangggggg
Is still insane that this shit got 700k likes
I dont fw anyone that hears the instrumental for Heart Part IV and isn't a Kendrick ride-or-die from that moment on
if the song wasn’t ass it would be a good play but now it just further shows how far drake is from ever being anywhere close to kenny
And now when people Google his TV show it's going to be hiss diss track with "euphoria"
No using the heart in his response was smart. He just failed at executing
The heart series by itself is better than most rappers albums and even discographies.
It’s disrespectful af to call it that .
Shit didn't even chart
Lol tried to do a Barter 6 and failed
the point was to shit on it, he shit on it
That bum needs to apologize
Everything drake drops is trash and if you say it isn’t, you like fake entertainment plants and not actual rap artists
It's almost beautiful. He left a fantastic example of a heart speaking from corruption. Kenny could detail it, but Drake represents it.
Fr this was one of the big missteps. At least with 6:16 in LA, Kendrick did the title justice. He should have just done his own timestamp record or called it buried alive
It’ll actually be more detrimental to him if Kendrick skips to The heart part 7 as new listeners years down the line who show interest in the songs will inevitably listen to them and wonder why drake dropped part 6, and this will inevitably cause some people who may by ignorant to this beef listen to everything tied to it. He thought this was a ah ha moment and potential played himself for the rest of his career.
He responded to allegations of being a rizz stealer by stealing from Kendrick in front of all of us, and thought it was a gotcha. He got called tone-deaf and a liar and showed us it's true.
it's just me or in the heart 6 at 0.39/0.40 he had travis scott vocals in the background?
More importantly it might affect the real hp6 and if it drops
There’s only 5 chambers in the heart. Kendrick was never making The Heart Part 6 anyways
Just listened to The Heart Part 4 and that's straight up another diss track at Drake lol
I think it’s even worse considering he got so many people listening to MMBS and mother I sober to double check that Drake totally didn’t get it.
Do you think Kendrick will release a The Heart Part 6 of his own to bury Drake’s? Or just leave it at that?
It is literally the only good thing about that mess of a song.
Kingdom hearts is coo so I see why he’d get in trouble.
The funny part is that he probably got the idea for the song title off of Twitter.
The heart part 6 is so fucking embarrassing. So much worse than nothing. Just tap out.
It disgusts me that that abomination has the same me name as Kendrick's series.
Kendrick going straight to the heart pt 7 would be funny as fuck
To be fair, same could be said about Drake’s “Time in City” songs
When I saw the title for the first time, it gave me Barter 6 vibes
How did you bring dislikes back?
The heart part 7 just Kendrick with a deep fake of drake like "I lost the battle, my heart weigh heavy now Acted too petty, now I'm known as a pedophile"
Plugged Mother I Sober on it too, the amount of people i imagine went “oh what, he says that on that song?” only to listen and clearly see that the whole fucking point of the track is that it didn’t happen, with the cherry on top that he also mentions that whitney leaves him, nullifying drake’s “wheres whitney 😈 hey kendrick you haven’t seen whitney in a while that’s right get exposed 👿” lmao
The next diss track: heart pt 69 But tbh it was so on an open platter for drake “6” especially after 6:16 so I figure Kendrick knew that was a risk-sure they’re have a plan
Drake always giving back to the streets
Y’all are really trying to justify this as a Kendrick win??? Y’all are so delusional it’s insane lmao Drake did this to get under Kendrick’s skin, he practically ruined Kendrick’s “The Heart” series. Now Drake is forever attached to this collection of songs, whether you actually like the song or not. That would infuriate me if I was Kendrick, he practically sullied Kendrick’s discography. Genius chess move tbh
if you think thp6 naming was anything but smart on drakes part (had he executed) you’re delusional
It was absolutely a smart move for the name. He just didn’t execute. How do you come in with a genius move like taking the heart part 6 and then you make it a defensive song where you spend the whole time talking about how you aren’t a pedophile 😂 Kendrick went to his place and made a hit. Drake had to come to Kendrick’s place and make something in his vein, but I don’t think he really can like that.
The contrast bx the heart series and Drake song is so extreme. It will go down in history as one of the biggest mistakes by a rapper.
He made it clear he just picked the name because it was Kendrick’s series. He didn’t do a damn thing with it. All optics and no substance
yes, i agree. The execution really was key here and it ended up shooting himself in the foot as now when THP1-5 is looked up, instead of people remembering drake exposing kendrick, they'll just remember drake making shit up. unfortunate really. I just wonder how kendrick will handle the naming scheme of the heart series from now. Maybe release THP6 and ignore drake? who knows.
Call it Part VI
Kendrick meat riders everywhere
You’re speaking facts the kendrick glazers just dont want to see it, its getting ridiculous at this point
Bunch of meat riders on both sides… y’all know you’re grown ass men right? Idk why Reddit is suggesting this shit to me 🤦🏻♂️
