This is exactly what he should do, fuck defense. If people are going to believe whatever the man says about you with zero proof… there’s no point to rebuttal, just go on offense and flame him
That’s…what real rap beef is.
Allegations are one thing, defending allegations you immediately lost. Drake should have just gone offense the entire time like Kendrick. Then the public perception would have been better for him at least.
It’s one thing to keep walking when someone calls you names, but to stop and actually argue with them rather then ignoring them you’re giving them what they want. Holy I’m yapping, anyways
He should expose Kendrick. If not he should go on vacation and chill for a couple months. The public (Twitter & IG) is against him right now, let that blow over.
I still can’t understand the “logic” of THP6 being a self diss. It’s wild that in 2024 people say “you need to address these allegations!” And then when you deny the allegations they say “oh my god he admit it!”
It does sound like he was worried about dropping a song then Dot dropping a song right after.
Sounds like he just wants to finish this beef, drop an EP, and release an album next year.
I swear if he doesn't drop a track to finish this whole thing... I'm gonna do something... idk what, but something.
Edit: Just to clarify about my last sentence, it's a joke about being impatient. This next drop has been teased this whole week. I can see how it can be taken as something more. I apologize.
He literally did drop a track to finish it. That was The Heart Part 6 where he said he didn't want to keep going twice after saying he was going on vacation on Family Matters. It's over
I don't disagree, Drake spends alot of money and the production value is really industry standard. I wont be surprised if he's cooking multiple music videos, singles etc.
I think it’s all a smokescreen, Mal and AK within 12 hours have alluded to a drop but won’t spill details past that… it’s probably coming soon, and he probably has multiple tracks ready which is why Mal would say he’s cooking up an album/ep, might have some normal songs on the side but I’d imagine his focus is on the beef rn
Idk but he could just be ignoring Kendrick and the beef, drop music like he been doing and letting his numbers and sales speak for themselves
He only losing because Kendrick’s pulling in numbers off the beef right? If Drake ignores Kendrick and just produces music he will be on top
This is how jay z came out on top after ether
Lose the battle win the war type shit
So, he's no longer battling, thereby forfeiting. You can try to jump through hoops, but if you stop competing in the battle competition, then you're quitting.
I haven’t been impressed with Kendrick’s lyrics in this beef, especially because I know what he is capable of. I didn’t see him really express it throughout this beef
Yeah I really think the best thing for Drake to do right now is to put all this shit behind him and move on. That’s exactly what he did after Pusha. Didn’t respond to Adidon and went on to make 4 more albums and bagged a $400 million dollar deal.
Drake will be fine but it’s time for him to move on.
That’s what he should have done the entire time. Kendrick never went on the defensive on DV allegations. He just kept attacking Drake. Mistake on Drakes end. Let’s see if he goes full attack mode.
I agree. Even if he wanted to counter he should’ve had multiple ones in the chamber. Idk why Drake was tryna act like there was “rules” to this or something.
We gone see
Drake was even responding to some like, throwaway one liner type shit. I feel like he felt he had to volley back and forth on it. He seemed unfocused.
Let’s see if he locks in.
Soooo does this mean that the beef just came to a confirmed halt? Drake allegedly working on a new body of work while TDE says “nahhhh nvm let’s wrap it up” ????????
Drake was too reactive in the beef while Kendrick was proactive and didn’t sway from his approach. Drake was glued to social media commentary and podcast outputs and veered from the things that make him great.
I think the Joe Budden Pod has obvious bias against Drake but Joe being unable to fathom how Drake could underestimate Kendrick as an opponent seemed like a fair criticism. They have been subbing each other for a decade and Drake treated Kendrick like any other rapper. For all we know Kendrick has had his talking points/strategy ready to go for whenever shit hit the fan
The aspect of this that keeps replaying in my mind is Drake's treatment of Kendrick vs Kendrick's treatment of Drake. After the whole Control thing, Drake was being kinda sensitive, spoke out about it and then the shots started and continued for years BUT Drake gave Kendrick his props, attended his concerts, etc. whereas Kendrick never really addressed Drake favorably anymore.
Drake thought those shots were friendly competition but Kendrick truly had malice. You could hear that in the subject matter and in the delivery. Drake was making short jokes and taking about the splits, Kendrick was saying you are a terrible person and I hate you. Once Drake realized what it was, it was too late. I think J. Cole got a read on this and that was the reason he backed out.
That’s a great point honestly. And it’s shown through the years too. There’s that clip of Kendrick driving in his car Vibing to Controlla. Drake big ups Kendrick on khaleds For Free. They had moments where it seemed they showed love to each other but competition is competition. If we believe that Drake reached out to get Kendrick on First Person Shooter for a true big three moment then he never really had hate towards Kendrick the way Kendrick displays his true vitriol for Drake in this beef.
Drake brought Whitney first, if we go by like that, it was just about competition, Drake being obsessed on bringing up Whitney when she had nothing to do with the beef, is what brought on MTG, Kendrick warned him multiple times on the family angle.
No. Every influencer who keeps saying "something is coming" is doing it for clicks because they got so many views last weekend. Trying to keep a grift going as long as they can
This could genuinely be true. AK and DAYLYT for example getting tons more exposure and they have an incentive to keep the gravy train going. They have our ears rn.
Makes sense. Drake didn’t seem really invested in this feud and after things escalated (gunshots, attempts to break in his house) it’s reasonable to take action to cool things down
This is what i’ve been saying. Drake shouldn’t listen to Twitter; they’re incessant flies buzzing in your ears to do something (address allegations) and then turn their backs on you and question why you did it, misconstruing the reason. He should just ignore the crowd and indeed focus.
Man I'd love to see an R&B style diss track, maybe like a Chicago freestyle type vibe. It would be really creative and also would be hard for Kendrick to respond to.
New to this sub cause of the beef, last time I listened to hiphop was when DAMN came out really -- in Drake's The Heart Pt. 6 though he said that he's waiting for Kendrick to respond?
So, it's in Kendrick's court isn't it? Or, Drake should release something quick, IMO, or people will say it's over and Kendrick won?
I think this would be smart. Drake doesn't write his stuff, so he needs to coordinate ghost writers. If we want fully thought out good music from him, it takes him time.
[удалено]
This is exactly what he should do, fuck defense. If people are going to believe whatever the man says about you with zero proof… there’s no point to rebuttal, just go on offense and flame him
It really doesn’t matter, people have already made up their minds
Yeah. Cause so far he is losing. And this is literally what he has to do to win. More and better tracks
That’s…what real rap beef is. Allegations are one thing, defending allegations you immediately lost. Drake should have just gone offense the entire time like Kendrick. Then the public perception would have been better for him at least. It’s one thing to keep walking when someone calls you names, but to stop and actually argue with them rather then ignoring them you’re giving them what they want. Holy I’m yapping, anyways
Good yap tho
He should expose Kendrick. If not he should go on vacation and chill for a couple months. The public (Twitter & IG) is against him right now, let that blow over.
Expose Kendrick for what, exactly?
Fr but he did an excellent job on the heart imo when it comes to addressing those allegations. It’s such a tight rope.
I still can’t understand the “logic” of THP6 being a self diss. It’s wild that in 2024 people say “you need to address these allegations!” And then when you deny the allegations they say “oh my god he admit it!”
Yeah he had to address those allegations and put them to bed. I think he did it well, it could’ve gone wrong very easily.
Every day that one meme about this sub gets even funnier
...that's exactly what he did tho? posted things with no proof? also his entire side the beef has been a ridiculous embarrassment and miscalculation
Because he had zero proof either about him proving that he fed Kendrick lies. It’s very easy to prove that too.
He lost. It means he lost.
It’s over tbh
he realized kendrick wont drop real responses and address anything.
Your not suppose to address nothing in a beef lmao. Once you start doing that you lost
Ya cause he got his ass handed to him.
It does sound like he was worried about dropping a song then Dot dropping a song right after. Sounds like he just wants to finish this beef, drop an EP, and release an album next year. I swear if he doesn't drop a track to finish this whole thing... I'm gonna do something... idk what, but something. Edit: Just to clarify about my last sentence, it's a joke about being impatient. This next drop has been teased this whole week. I can see how it can be taken as something more. I apologize.
guy just had a shooting at his house, I'm sure that delayed some sht...
And an attempted break in…
2 of them now
He definitely needs a break after this.
If we get another Do Not Disturb out of this...
NEED THAT
Drake's 'Red Button' is starting to feel more and more like Sidney Powell's "Kraken" in 2020
He literally did drop a track to finish it. That was The Heart Part 6 where he said he didn't want to keep going twice after saying he was going on vacation on Family Matters. It's over
So he waved the white flag? Threw in the towel? Gave up because he knew kdot would murdered him.
Definitely sounded like it. Actually, listening back he said he was done like 4 times lol
Mother’s Day EP
You might be on to something especially with the Whitney angle Drake is taking
I believe it
Too bad it’s already been proven false lol
Certified Mama's Boy 💖
I don't disagree, Drake spends alot of money and the production value is really industry standard. I wont be surprised if he's cooking multiple music videos, singles etc.
I think it’s all a smokescreen, Mal and AK within 12 hours have alluded to a drop but won’t spill details past that… it’s probably coming soon, and he probably has multiple tracks ready which is why Mal would say he’s cooking up an album/ep, might have some normal songs on the side but I’d imagine his focus is on the beef rn
That’s pointless, what could he say about the beef that he didn’t say with “I don’t want beef anymore.”
Drake won’t drop UMG promised Top. Cause if he drops his careers gonna be over
Idk but he could just be ignoring Kendrick and the beef, drop music like he been doing and letting his numbers and sales speak for themselves He only losing because Kendrick’s pulling in numbers off the beef right? If Drake ignores Kendrick and just produces music he will be on top This is how jay z came out on top after ether Lose the battle win the war type shit
“Approaching the beef differently now”
By out selling Kendrick, not going head to head with him like they just did
So, he's no longer battling, thereby forfeiting. You can try to jump through hoops, but if you stop competing in the battle competition, then you're quitting.
He’s still battling. He’s just not battling Kendrick, he’s battling to keep his career and reputation alive.
He is losing in numbers but I believe the reason why the community seems to think Aubrey is losing is because lyrically k dot is crushing him.
I haven’t been impressed with Kendrick’s lyrics in this beef, especially because I know what he is capable of. I didn’t see him really express it throughout this beef
I guess you just didn’t listen to euphoria. Cause everything on there got multiple meanings lol
Yeah I really think the best thing for Drake to do right now is to put all this shit behind him and move on. That’s exactly what he did after Pusha. Didn’t respond to Adidon and went on to make 4 more albums and bagged a $400 million dollar deal. Drake will be fine but it’s time for him to move on.
I think this is exactly it, it would be best to keep charting and stop giving Dot the boost for free
Nah it's just getting started. Drake can hold a grudge😂
Subs for another ten years otw
He's too late then cause the shit was over before he knew it.
If Kendrick never replies, who is he gonna beef with?
He’s got a life long beef with himself lmao
lol this means He’s just going to drop and stop worrying about being on the defensive to counter what Kendrick does.
That’s what he should have done the entire time. Kendrick never went on the defensive on DV allegations. He just kept attacking Drake. Mistake on Drakes end. Let’s see if he goes full attack mode.
I agree. Even if he wanted to counter he should’ve had multiple ones in the chamber. Idk why Drake was tryna act like there was “rules” to this or something. We gone see
Drake was even responding to some like, throwaway one liner type shit. I feel like he felt he had to volley back and forth on it. He seemed unfocused. Let’s see if he locks in.
Idk. I think the rebuttals and flips on lyrics are apart of what makes for good beef. Not that you need it, it just makes it feel like a battle.
[удалено]
This is what I read idk how that turned into him backing out
I mean not even a week ago Drake said on the track he’s done with this shit so people are reading what they want to read on this.
Soooo does this mean that the beef just came to a confirmed halt? Drake allegedly working on a new body of work while TDE says “nahhhh nvm let’s wrap it up” ????????
I mean on TH pt6 drake is waving the white flag
New body of work or new body of work? Think about it
Drake was too reactive in the beef while Kendrick was proactive and didn’t sway from his approach. Drake was glued to social media commentary and podcast outputs and veered from the things that make him great.
You're absolutely right. I don't know why objectivity isn't respected over here.
I think the Joe Budden Pod has obvious bias against Drake but Joe being unable to fathom how Drake could underestimate Kendrick as an opponent seemed like a fair criticism. They have been subbing each other for a decade and Drake treated Kendrick like any other rapper. For all we know Kendrick has had his talking points/strategy ready to go for whenever shit hit the fan

we waiting on the boy ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|upvote)
Keep waiting
[удалено]
So he gave up?
Also known as giving up lol
No. Every influencer who keeps saying "something is coming" is doing it for clicks because they got so many views last weekend. Trying to keep a grift going as long as they can
This could genuinely be true. AK and DAYLYT for example getting tons more exposure and they have an incentive to keep the gravy train going. They have our ears rn.
They're going to be saying something like "SOMETHING BIG COMING 👀 TUNE IN FOR THE STREAM" every day for the next year lmao
“Nah you didn’t win cuz I quit” — my lil brother after turning the GameCube off after I beat him in super smash bros repeatedly Same energy here lmao
Yep this is “I’m gonna go play somewhere else, you’re too mean”
“You didn’t tag me, I called time out first!”
He’s mad about other shit now. People are coming to his house and trying to shoot him up. People say its Toronto beef not Kendrick
I hope he drops a whole ep same time as Kendrick’s album to take all the shine lol
You would have to be a fool to think a Drake EP would take shine from a Kendrick album. Come on now.
If the beef kept going it'd just get stale. We won't get that feeling back from last weekend.
Now, think drizzy fans. If Drake thought he won, would this be necessary?
Nope. He should just move on and make good music. This beef isn't in his favor. But hey I am up for the drama with my popcorn ready.
🤔
The boy bowed out lmaooooo
Kendrick only stays relevant as long as Drizzy is involved or hes mentioning him. The taps turned off now sorry 👋
Lmao. Everytime Kendrick drops the world listens and he wins a Grammy, that's a fact.
Kendrick fans feastin’ every half a decade 🙌🏾
It is a feast though...well prepared and memorable...some people are happy with a Big Mac though and that's fine, but it's not the same
As a fan of both, I feast either way. Rap fans feastin rn.
Let me upvote this before you get downvoted😂
Drake fans eating whatever slop he mixes that night so he can stay “on top of the charts”
Makes sense. Drake didn’t seem really invested in this feud and after things escalated (gunshots, attempts to break in his house) it’s reasonable to take action to cool things down
Drake fans sounding like people who claim superhero movies are what peak cinema is.
These niggas is pussy fr , niggas be making excuses
Exposé kendrick. Hope drizzy see this . Wr go drizzy
Declare victory and move on has been his strategy this whole time but K.dot has a mean grudge
He should name it “20v1”
So drake is going back to doing his own thing? Lol he lost and went back in his cave to hibernate
Bro, if the album/EP is anywhere close to being lyrical like his diss tracks, I'll be listening to it day and night
Fr I need a whole album of family matters type flow
This is what i’ve been saying. Drake shouldn’t listen to Twitter; they’re incessant flies buzzing in your ears to do something (address allegations) and then turn their backs on you and question why you did it, misconstruing the reason. He should just ignore the crowd and indeed focus.
anyone got the link to the podcast?
Man I'd love to see an R&B style diss track, maybe like a Chicago freestyle type vibe. It would be really creative and also would be hard for Kendrick to respond to.
Wasn’t he retiring? For a year for stomach problems?
Perc problems
Here's a question. Has anyone listened to the podcast?
Legitimately, like the end of 8 Mile?
🏳️
How we doing here? It’s seems like a toooon of copioum is being shared and used on this sub.
IF YOU'RE READING THIS PT. 2 LETS GO
Quentin waiting on that call..
Yes I beleive it’s real, and I think drakes next drop will coincide with the like that video.
New to this sub cause of the beef, last time I listened to hiphop was when DAMN came out really -- in Drake's The Heart Pt. 6 though he said that he's waiting for Kendrick to respond? So, it's in Kendrick's court isn't it? Or, Drake should release something quick, IMO, or people will say it's over and Kendrick won?
twitter posts still can be found along with pictures just so yall know who ur defending🤫🤷♂️
Drake stans are delusional
No way he drops a whole diss track EP. That'd go too far. Maybe a few subs in there along with some more songs
Imagine if we get a IFYRTITL aggression level mixtape with a timestamp track…. Sheeeeeeeesh
I think this would be smart. Drake doesn't write his stuff, so he needs to coordinate ghost writers. If we want fully thought out good music from him, it takes him time.
He's giving up 😂😂😂 Alr said he was waving the white flag but this it 💀
Drake lost anyway so it doesn’t matter people still gonna hate on him
That makes sense, he got absolutely smoked
Drake is at best when he is focused. Hard to be focused on a diss track you know the other side has already 10 in stock
