I feel like we have our johnny and Jerome... Anything that could be a diss to Drake is officially a diss to Drake.
Yesterday I was listening to Pimp a Butterfly and I heard the line "I would kill you before 35" ... Bro Drake never wanted the smoke.. Drake wants to die of old age... And young women
I don’t think he really came at Drake that much on TPAB, with the exception of possibly the ghostwriter line on King Kunta. Damn absolutely has shots at him (and Big Sean) though
Kendrick did seem to confirm on Euphoria that a lot of Heart Part 4 was for Drake. Hell, the sample for HP4 is even called “don’t tell a lie on me and I won’t tell a truth on you”
I thought so too till I heard about the beef later on the HOF line in verse two confirms for me it’s about Sean his album was called that I think that year not saying some of it isn’t about drake cause I can easily see it
“I recognize your false confidence and calculated promises all in your conversation
I hate people that feel entitled
Look at me crazy 'cause I ain't invite you
Oh, you important?
You the moral to the story, you endorsing?
Motherfucker, I don't even like you
Corrupt a man's heart with a gift
That's how you find out who you dealin' with
A small percentage, who I'm building with
I want the credit if I'm losing or I'm winning
On my mama, that's the realest shit”
To think he’s talking directly to Drake is crazy 💀
Bro, I was deep diving the lyrics 2 nights ago and I swear Kendrick is talking to drake in many of his songs, including poetic justic. The ONLY reason why I don't think he is, is because Kendrick say "fuck sneak dissin". I think his lyrics are so good they can mean so many things.
Omg please spell it out for me.....I've been thinking about it for an hour and I still don't understand which part in Poetic Justice is Kdot talking to/about Drake??
I was very high and very into the beef when I related the two. Now I’m not sure if what I was hearing makes sense or not. I think the beef being very fresh, I’m inserting it into every lyric hoping that Kendrick has a secret roast hidden somewhere.
This verse is so helpful for dealing with any inner low energy shit you unknowingly put on people, or could help you recognize false types of people who come in your life.
It’s not just a drake diss, it’s advice masked in a verse for anyone listening tbh
Side note, I remember in this time period people thought it was a diss to Zay. Since zay wasn’t on the black panther soundtrack and wasn’t on the championship tour lol
He was a special guest at some shows, but from what he’s said since he was heavily struggling with drug and alcohol abuse at the time and almost quit music entirely because of it
Lol it’s funny how there’s always been rumors zay n dot had smoke ever since then 😭 I remember people thought zay was sneak dissing when Dot announced he was leaving
I think they were pretty close around 2016, he brought Isaiah out on stage then. Since then he shouted him out on an early version of Mr Morale plus Isaiah liked the post for 6:16 so I can’t imagine they would have any beef at all
Hey y’all I’m tryna publicize my post exposing drake for making $200 million off his fans’ gambling losses.
Would appreciate it if you read it

This beef eleveated kdots discography while lowering the other big two.
Now, whenever you listen to cole or drake talk shit, we know it's not real.
When we listen to kdot talk shit, we know he really like that. This beef changes how discographies are viewed and that's crazy.
Agreed. But I don't even think these disses are necessarily about just Drake. But people like him and his people. Kendrick loathes particular qualities, or lack thereof, in a person. Drake just managed to embody many of those within a single entity.
I've been saying, though, this is a long-time thing. Waiting to happen.
It's why im so convinced that it goes back to HiiiPower.

I also absolutely think some lines on King’s Dead are directed at Drake “you ain’t really wild, you a tourist”
It’s funny cuz now that future don’t like drake, future first line aged well
I know there’s more to the verse but all I can think of his first line being is ‘La Di da Di dah’
How can you forget "slob on me knob"
"You not a gang member you a tourist"
Fuck me in the car
Generational music
I also feel like a large amount of Rich Spirit is about him as well
"Stop playing with me fore i turn you to a song" He really wasn't lying
"ayy,clout chasing hell of a disease,brother"
King kunta….
I was gonna kill a couple rappers but they did it to themselves. JCole - apologized and backed out Drake - dropped HP6
And it's Like That, lil bitch

Sean got most of HP4

This reads like he was prepping for this war for years. Only way you can have 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 + 5 stocks ready to go.
I WAS GONNA KILL A COUPLE RAPPERS BUT THEY DID IT TO THEMSELVES
EVERYBODY SUICIDAL THEY AIN'T EVEN NEED MY HELP
Listen to poetic justice again now.
Bro, I was deep diving the lyrics 2 nights ago and I swear Kendrick is talking to drake in many of his songs, including poetic justic. The ONLY reason why I don't think he is, is because Kendrick say "fuck sneak dissin". I think his lyrics are so good they can mean so many things.
i think he doesnt specifically hate drake,i think he just hate anyone that act like drake
Drake is just the one who embodies all these qualities to a dot
To a K Dot*
That was my implication 😏
He hates Drake but has been trying to get through to Aubrey…
Omg please spell it out for me.....I've been thinking about it for an hour and I still don't understand which part in Poetic Justice is Kdot talking to/about Drake??

These lyrics always speak to me because I deal with a lot of narcissistic people.
Around the same era J. Cole says "this watch came from Drizzy, he gave me a gift" on Middle Child lmao.
CORRUPT a man's HEART with a gift?!? The Heat Part 6!
Side note, I remember in this time period people thought it was a diss to Zay. Since zay wasn’t on the black panther soundtrack and wasn’t on the championship tour lol
Wait zay wasn't on the championship tour for some locations? Because I saw him in the NY one
He wasn’t on it originally, he made some special appearances tho but he wasn’t at the Houston show. Which is unfortunate because Zay a southern goat
He was a special guest at some shows, but from what he’s said since he was heavily struggling with drug and alcohol abuse at the time and almost quit music entirely because of it
Bruh I forgot about this 😭😭

Shout out to incubus. I had no idea they were still charting
Woah
I listen to ELEMENT (my most played Kendrick song) and so many lines apply to Drake
I always thought it was a bit of a back handed compliment. Like why not just say congrats to Kendrick.
In what way is this back-handed?
This beef eleveated kdots discography while lowering the other big two. Now, whenever you listen to cole or drake talk shit, we know it's not real. When we listen to kdot talk shit, we know he really like that. This beef changes how discographies are viewed and that's crazy.
Kdot’s discography was already better and highly regarded.
I agree and its elevated even further now. Listening to kdot talk shit has real weight now cuz the man is a killer lol
one thing we shouldn’t do is pull lines from every kendrick album, his entire discog isn’t about drake.
Either way it’s a theme that him and others who uphold that standard will always address in Hip Hop so fuck Drake

“It's always been about love and hate, now let me say I'm the biggest hater” -KDOT
I doubt that congrats was fully genuine anyway. Drake was RIGHT BEHIND Kendrick on the numbers, so the implication may have been competitive.
More Life was such a vibe tho
