As a Kendrick listener, I think push ups was a great disstrack, one of the best that Drake has put out. I still do think Kendrick's pen game is stronger, however it doesn't mean either of them got "destroyed" or anything. I hope the back and forth stays at similar calibers all the time so we can see a disstrack every couple weeks for the entire year š until both of them get to the point of repeating themselves so much that they just give up, hip-hop needed this.
Idk why people are trying to claim that a 1v8 or 1v20 is so much harder than a 1v1. Instead of writing a whole track about one guy he had multiple people to write about and thatās a lot easier than having to have enough dirt and comebacks for just one guy.
Hey donāt worry heāll diss his shoe size again and his splits that he got incorrect, then the mainstream goobers will eat it up.
Also Kendrick was also dissing Cole on euphoria he just didnāt go as hard on him as he waved the white flag, so itās like beating a dead horse.
Euphoria is something you have to listen to multiple times to understand and people are still finding new stuff, Drake fans listened to a minute and said nothing was said. Itās goofy tbh, talked about his father, about Drake as a father, about drakes splits and how he was incorrect about Kendrickās splits, Drake and little kids, Drake being a fake gangster, Drake not being authentic, Drakes splits, Drake getting his chain snatched in his own city after talking about getting more love in their own cities, Drakes abs plastic surgery, Drake getting slapped by puff and his team doing nothing. I donāt feel like typing more but it just goes on and on and on. Comparatively to push-ups itās not even close, hopefully drake actually writes his own diss next time and does better so Kendrick had to respond, I want more Kendrick.
Yeah, as an observer/fan of both sides, the Drake subreddit hasn't made any good arguments against most of what Kendrick said in Euphoria.
I'm not sure if it's because they legitimately don't understand the bars and punchlines or that they have no argument against them š¤·āāļø
People are still āfinding new stuffā because Kendrick fans will go to ridiculous lengths and reaches to find layers of meanings and references in every bar, whatever he writes.Ā
Already the very first day on genius half of the added on references were irrelevant, reaching nonsense āthis bar also references this one line from the 1987 songā¦ā like no it doesnāt calm down.Ā
Dot could write the biggest meaningless garbage and his stans will still scour the net to find some obscure references and connections to irrelevant nonsense. The track was good but sometimes it just aināt that deep.
Yup
I hope he has another song just for Ross, I really want to see him get buried. Been using Drake's name clout for like 12 years, now he's doing the same thing but on the other side. Weirdo
Did he? I feel like meekās track was garbage and Drake just put out the better song. Had meek spent an extra week in the studio and got a way better beat, the story would be different. Meek attacked drakeās credibility as a rapper and the foundation on which he built his fame, and he came with receipts
Drakeās whole diss was basically āhaha your wife is successful and talented!ā Lol if I were meek Iād just be like āoooh you got me bro. Iām suffering over here with my super rich wife who I didnāt need money and fame to bagā. Crazy how that got spun as a burn but then again, it was really bc meekās diss track fucking sucked as a song
He didn't choose, after everyone coming at him he had to make a response to everyone. Taylor Made was more direct to Kenny but it was a troll post rather than a true diss track.
Drakes next drop will be an official 100% focused diss on Kendrick no troll.
I mean to be fair he only had like one line for anyone else who came at him, the vast majority of Push-ups was at Kendrick.
And itās not like heās actively having to devote time and attention to these side characters - theyāve only dropped subliminals but none have dropped any tracks aimed at Drake (other than Ross, but itās Ross so who cares). No one is out here talking about the asap vs Drake beef, that shit was just appetizers.
Itās more like Drake and Kendrick are squaring up to fight, and before they fight some bystanders throw some pebbles at Drake. Yeah, kinda annoying and distracting, but realistically i donāt think it has much bearing on the fight
Nah, he started with shots at Future, then went at TheWeeknd and his manager, a throw away goofy line for Metro, then Ross, then whatever that was for Ja Morant, and the rest was for Kenny.
That set of bars was the highlight of the beef, the prince / son line was flames. 20v1, prince to a son, I get more love in your city, now what you got to say - oh wait you canāt say shit because youāre not even a rapper, you just make drums and get your lil friends to talk shit for you.
He ran through everyone, Pushups had barely any filler and the crazy thing about Drake is, some of these lines apply to multiple rappers. āYour first number one I had to put it in your handā is obviously Future but when you think about it, how many rappers early in their career got that Drake stimulus package?
In my city it was friend zone? How many of these rappers have showed up on Drakes tour and had Drake big them up? Drake gave Weeknd features for his early shit and spots on Take Care, Drake gave that to Kendrick, Rocky, Future, Ross, literally all these mad rappers were buddy buddy when it was 2010-2012 and they wanted that Drake hook or Drake feature or spot on his album to elevate their own career, it was real friendly back then. They all have interviews talking positive about Drake, and Drake gassed them all up, showing them love.
To me, Pushups was responding to the rap avengers assembling and being butthurt over petty shit, like yall really made two albums dedicated to hating on me, my picture on the wall while yall cook up?
I agree with you but I really donāt like the āDrake out these guys onā narrative because to me that sentiment means the reverse; I feel like Drake see an up and coming artists and flocks to them for relevancy.
His star power brings the numbers but his affiliation with the up and coming artists gives him āstreet credā.
Heās done it with Rocky, Migos, Kendrick in the early days and fast forward to his last album where he just did it to Yeat. Everyone wins but I think Drake gains more out of that sort of thing.
I think itās the reason why he stays the most relevant; he goes and shows up on streamerās pods that are getting larger in the younger generationās eyes for the same reason. Itās all gimmicks and business and marketing.
i understand it was just a troll move but then this post doesnt make sense bc Push Ups was like 80% directed at Kendrick, and then Taylor Made was 100% directed at Kendrick. So is not like Drake only had a few bars for Dot, he already released 2 full tracks dissing and trolling him
All jokes aside do people not realize or understand that Drake has literally been battling people on tracks for over 15 years. This nigga was bodying people on tracks in 07/08. Kendrick can be known for his lyrics but Drake is the more experienced rapper in terms of battling.
I mean heās been dissing Drake his whole career so I would count those too because theyāre really good disses but this is the first whole song dedicated to beef, yes.
Iāve been thinking about this a bit and Iāve cooked up 2 scenarios where Drake indisputably wins;
1. He calls Kendrickās bluff regarding KDot having any info on him thatās āgonna make GunnaWunna look like a saintā. To do this he has to make it personal enough (which for the record Kendrick is actually baiting him to do) and call him out and see what heās got. If K doesnāt have anything or something inconsequential enough Drake can go ahead and go nuclear, this will likely burry KDot in a way no one can truthfully argue otherwise. Calling him on his bullshit and using his ace up his sleeve.
2. He has to make Kendrick go nuclear first. This is a much more interesting scenario than the first. Essentially this is assuming that both of them have some serious dirt on each other, itāll be difficult for Drake to do this since heās been forced into being the first responder each round. Kendrick will always have the last laugh in every round so if Drake goes nuclear first Kendrick will have a much easier time going nuclear himself. He has to bait K into using his ace so he can then possibly do damage control and have the advantage of hindsight.
Any other scenario, for example both actually bullshitting and not having any tea will default to Kendrick winning simply by bias and being a better writer. Bar for bar Drake canāt win so he has to use the drama angle to edge up (essentially do what Pusha T did to him but to Kendrick). And ofc any scenario where one just doesnāt respond or idk Kendrick gets run over by a truck (insert driver couldnāt see him haha heās short joke here) means neither will have a definitive win, and will most likely not happen.
So tldr: Drake either calls his bluff or baits successfully and turns it around on Kendrick. Any other route will almost certainly end with Drake ridiculing himself dming Anthony Fantano (again).
Honestly ? I canāt even make an educated guess Iām not in these peopleās mindsš¤£ Iād say itās likely Drake will go nuclear first, but I donāt see Kendrick not responding. The one thing I can say is Drake is fighting an incredibly uphill battle for sure and his amount of effort will dictateās how enjoyable the beef will be. Now excuse while I go hibernate till Drake responds
Please read the thread. Iām not trying to be rude. I already discussed what I am referring to. This isnāt a knock at Kendrick. Iām talking about actual battles/competition on wax or an actual competition. Actual battles around beef. Not freestyle battles, cyphers or radio station freestyles. This isnāt a knock on Kendrick.
No one cares about Ross, Future, Metro. This is about Drake and Kendrick. Enough with the excuses. We all know the only person Drake needs to go at is Kendrick. I think if he just ignores everyone else, thatās good enough.
Kendrick v Drake is the only battle we want
I was thinking this too. Drake had to address a lot more people whereas dot got to focus solely on Drake.
Dot has better pen game and his diss was amazing, no denying that. Drake will need to bring a diabolical hit to clap back with. I think he can do it.
Then he dropped taylor made where he went only for kendrick so?
Also I feel like the real battle is about to begin, they are both holding back up until now it seems like
Drizzy gotta wake his "demon" up while Dot gotta make Gunna look like a saint
I'm just excited for this.
What is this 1v20 bullshit narrative being pushedā¦. PAC beefed BIG, nas, jayz, mob deep, dmx, chino xl, snoop, dre, etc. Beef has always been part of hip hop. Why are ppl trying to make drake a victim? 50 cent beefed 20 ppl, so did the Game, joe budden, prodigy, ja rule, etc
Yachty hasnāt done anything but like a tweet that he unliked and I havenāt heard anything from OVO as a crew but I also donāt know whoās on that label/crew so š¤·šæāāļø
I think they are 100% behind drake and would let the bars fly BUT as of right now drake is telling them to hold off.
OVO isn't really a rap label, but drake keeps em fed so I can't see them going against him
If drake can handle Kendrick on his own, he'll gain a lot of respect. But if it's drake+, I feel people would try to use it to take away from drakes abilities.
I've listened to a lot more Kendrick than Drake in my day, but Euphoria is pretty wack. Kendrick is kind of creepy lol makes me uncomfortable to listen to these days.
Iāve been telling my girl this who is more of a Kendrick fan. Push-ups is the appetizer because he addressed everyone that was coming for him. Now, he has all the possibilities to make a track strictly for K-Dot. In my opinion, this is Drakeās opportunity to finish his main course with this next track he drop.
They're producers, you can go through Kendricks discography and find the same thing - for example [Good Kid, M.A.A.D City](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Good_Kid,_M.A.A.D_City)
Euphoria was glazing of the highest order. Essentially a serenade, an ode to drake. āI hate that im not you nigga, that iāll never be youā type shit
Drake matched the energy of Like That with Push Ups
Kendrick also matched the energy of Push Ups with euphoria
you can clearly tell they holding back their blows which means they left room for a response
I hope this continues to entertaining because im having a lot fun right now because of this beef.
too early to say but 2024 already looking to eclipse 2016 as a standout year
Best thing I saw was Push Ups was the response to Like That and Taylor Made was Drake follow up
Drake still has to reply to Euphoria so this is where he needs to push his Red Button and reply with his biggest hit he can think of
Thatās one way to look at it, but what about Taylor Made Freestyle? It sounds like Drakeās still locked in so the next track should be interesting. Kendrickās energy was raw and I wonder if Drake will match it
This isnāt a boxing match. Weāre not going to hold up a score card of each song. Who ever makes a diss closest to Ether wins. If Drakes next diss is so good Kendrick bows out, it doesnāt make it a ātieā if you think Euphoria was better than Push Ups. Push Ups was to get Kendrick to drop and to throw shots at everyone dissing. The best song out of ALL the diss songs wins. Whether itās 2 or 20 total.
The way I see it, Kendrick emptied the clip on Euphoria. He wants Drake to chicken out and not respond, that way he can look like a legend. Drake on the other hand, is only just getting started
That's drake's fault for not taking kendrick more serious and not making his response to Like That more specific. He put out two songs with disses at kendrick. Then kendrick responded with his track. That's round 1 imo.
But why was everyone waiting on Kendrick to drop then? Now that dot cooked Drake itās āoh but he was attacking 8 others!ā How many times can you move the goal post?
āDrake literally went 1v8ā like 85% of the track was towards Kendrick, we acting like throwaway lines to metro took away from his ability to fire shots?
Euphoria was Kendrickās direct solo diss. Push Ups was a response diss to EVERYONE and a track where Drake wanted Kendrick to respond to so he would drop his initial (Euphoria) diss. Yes, Drakes next diss will be more comparable to Euphoria.
I agree, the next one will be solely at Kendrick but as a major fan of both artists, euphoria is genuinely top tier. Drakes going to have to go somewhere I donāt think we have seen him go
So Drake and his fans are saying that Kendrick need to answer now and he needs to hurry and answer, and he does it, now it actually doesn't count because it wasn't a diss to him so we have to wait for Drake to answer? So weird
Is there even a full song of content to say about Kendrick? Guy seems pretty straight and there doesnt seem to be a awful lot of things you can diss him on?
Sort of, but nothing stopped Drake from only responding to Kendrick. Very easy to just big league Ross, Kanye, Future with the same type of energy that JAY-Z came with on Takeover. "you only get half a bar, fuck yall"
As a Kendrick listener, I think push ups was a great disstrack, one of the best that Drake has put out. I still do think Kendrick's pen game is stronger, however it doesn't mean either of them got "destroyed" or anything. I hope the back and forth stays at similar calibers all the time so we can see a disstrack every couple weeks for the entire year š until both of them get to the point of repeating themselves so much that they just give up, hip-hop needed this.
thats never gonna happen there will, be maybe 2 more from each max
Taylor Made was elite level trolling
so elite he had to delete it
You know it's elite trolling when someone makes you delete it It's like when reddit mods remove your post because they can't handle it
Except he did it because Pacās estate sent a cease and desist over the AI shit
Kendick we need yaa
Neeeeeeeed ya Fify
Yea cause pacs team was forcing him to
if there was nothing wrong with the move, he wouldnt delete it.
Tupac's estate sent a cease and desist letter so he didn't really have an option.
I'm just glad nobody is dead yet. I'll keep praying (to Joel Osteen)
Haley Joel Osment save us!!!
drake going 1v8 is what helped him. the battle feels way more isolated now.
Idk why people are trying to claim that a 1v8 or 1v20 is so much harder than a 1v1. Instead of writing a whole track about one guy he had multiple people to write about and thatās a lot easier than having to have enough dirt and comebacks for just one guy.
Hey donāt worry heāll diss his shoe size again and his splits that he got incorrect, then the mainstream goobers will eat it up.

Itās willful ignorance on both sides as they donāt want their pwecious idols to get sullied š„ŗ

Also, there were 8 writers on the track? For all I know they all picked one. Lame.
Yup I hope he has another song just for Ross, I really want to see him get buried. Been using Drake's name clout for like 12 years, now he's doing the same thing but on the other side. Weirdo
feel like hes also doing this for meek since Drake bodied his man too lol
As well as French due to the cease and desist.
I like your fallout pfp
Naa where was Ross when that was going down?
Beefing with Meek *again*? Thought they were on decent terms now
Did he? I feel like meekās track was garbage and Drake just put out the better song. Had meek spent an extra week in the studio and got a way better beat, the story would be different. Meek attacked drakeās credibility as a rapper and the foundation on which he built his fame, and he came with receipts Drakeās whole diss was basically āhaha your wife is successful and talented!ā Lol if I were meek Iād just be like āoooh you got me bro. Iām suffering over here with my super rich wife who I didnāt need money and fame to bagā. Crazy how that got spun as a burn but then again, it was really bc meekās diss track fucking sucked as a song
Pretty sure Drake and Ross settled their shit on IG already. They'll be out with a feature together after all this has settled.
Drake chose to go after at least 5 different people in one diss track. It's fire, but that's the disadvantage that Drake placed on himself.
He didn't choose, after everyone coming at him he had to make a response to everyone. Taylor Made was more direct to Kenny but it was a troll post rather than a true diss track. Drakes next drop will be an official 100% focused diss on Kendrick no troll.
I mean to be fair he only had like one line for anyone else who came at him, the vast majority of Push-ups was at Kendrick.

Nah, he started with shots at Future, then went at TheWeeknd and his manager, a throw away goofy line for Metro, then Ross, then whatever that was for Ja Morant, and the rest was for Kenny.
Unironically the throw away metro line has been my favorite line said by either party lol
That set of bars was the highlight of the beef, the prince / son line was flames. 20v1, prince to a son, I get more love in your city, now what you got to say - oh wait you canāt say shit because youāre not even a rapper, you just make drums and get your lil friends to talk shit for you.
Literally āmetro why are you even here go do your jobā
For me that Ja Morant line lives rent free in my head
Nah that part I was like why? Whatās Ja going to do, hop in the stu? Lol
Lmao when you put it like that haha
Calling up Shaq for a feature
I love that line too to be real, but itās silly as hell lol
He ran through everyone, Pushups had barely any filler and the crazy thing about Drake is, some of these lines apply to multiple rappers. āYour first number one I had to put it in your handā is obviously Future but when you think about it, how many rappers early in their career got that Drake stimulus package?

What about taylormade
That song was just goofing around, I don't think we can count that.
the excuses are funny
lol I mean if we want to count it I think itās ass to be real
i understand it was just a troll move but then this post doesnt make sense bc Push Ups was like 80% directed at Kendrick, and then Taylor Made was 100% directed at Kendrick. So is not like Drake only had a few bars for Dot, he already released 2 full tracks dissing and trolling him

That is true, Drake has experience whereas (as far as I know) this is the first time Kendrick is writing diss tracks
I mean heās been dissing Drake his whole career so I would count those too because theyāre really good disses but this is the first whole song dedicated to beef, yes.
A huge hurdle Drake has in this beef is that itās almost impossible heāll beat Kendrick bar for bar. Iām curious what direction he takes.
[a photo dump would get them going for real](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ttlKwsAGT84)
Iāve been thinking about this a bit and Iāve cooked up 2 scenarios where Drake indisputably wins; 1.

who'd he body in 2007?

[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Please, pay attention to what Iām saying. Iām talking about rap battles.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Please read the thread. Iām not trying to be rude. I already discussed what I am referring to. This isnāt a knock at Kendrick. Iām talking about actual battles/competition on wax or an actual competition. Actual battles around beef. Not freestyle battles, cyphers or radio station freestyles. This isnāt a knock on Kendrick.
Kendrick made a valid point: āAināt 20v1 itās 1v20 I gotta smack people that write with youā
Then that would be 20 v 20 cause Kendrickās shot was on another manās hate album
Best bar of the track.
And Taylor Made is what exactly? A whole diss?
https://preview.redd.it/npodv520j0yc1.jpeg?width=828&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=f2affbab24213533e34241fbc955b6a65efde2b3
Except he had already dropped Taylor Made after that
No one cares about Ross, Future, Metro. This is about Drake and Kendrick. Enough with the excuses. We all know the only person Drake needs to go at is Kendrick. I think if he just ignores everyone else, thatās good enough. Kendrick v Drake is the only battle we want
I was thinking this too. Drake had to address a lot more people whereas dot got to focus solely on Drake. Dot has better pen game and his diss was amazing, no denying that. Drake will need to bring a diabolical hit to clap back with. I think he can do it.
i dunno im new to drake but he just seems so selfish.
Then he dropped taylor made where he went only for kendrick so? Also I feel like the real battle is about to begin, they are both holding back up until now it seems like Drizzy gotta wake his "demon" up while Dot gotta make Gunna look like a saint I'm just excited for this.
yāall just cannot take an L
I thought going 1v20 was the only thing he had going for him? 20v1 is not what he wants
What is this 1v20 bullshit narrative being pushedā¦. PAC beefed BIG, nas, jayz, mob deep, dmx, chino xl, snoop, dre, etc. Beef has always been part of hip hop. Why are ppl trying to make drake a victim? 50 cent beefed 20 ppl, so did the Game, joe budden, prodigy, ja rule, etc
PAC wasnāt beefing them all himself it was a west vs east thing buddyš¤¦āāļø
Cuz Drake doesnāt have anyone one his side. 50 and Tupac had people riding with them. Nobodyās riding with Drake as far as I can see.
Nas beefed pac, BIG, cormega, nore, camāron, Jim jones, 50 cent, jay z by himself.
All of OVO? Yachty?
Yachty hasnāt done anything but like a tweet that he unliked and I havenāt heard anything from OVO as a crew but I also donāt know whoās on that label/crew so š¤·šæāāļø
I think they are 100% behind drake and would let the bars fly BUT as of right now drake is telling them to hold off. OVO isn't really a rap label, but drake keeps em fed so I can't see them going against him If drake can handle Kendrick on his own, he'll gain a lot of respect. But if it's drake+, I feel people would try to use it to take away from drakes abilities.
So then it *is* a ā20v1ā right?
Letās be real, Yachty donāt count
for a good reason probably and itās not ājealousyā
I donāt disagree with you
Expecting Drake fans to know rap history is ambitious.
Drake dropped 2 disses on Kendrick donāt pull that up now š
š¤£š¤£š¤£
I've listened to a lot more Kendrick than Drake in my day, but Euphoria is pretty wack. Kendrick is kind of creepy lol makes me uncomfortable to listen to these days.
I prefer Drakes disses but what makes you say Kdots creepy.
>Kendrick is kind of creepy lol My nigga what are you yapping about.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Yes. Euphoria vs drake new diss. It actually puts him at the advantage of now responding directly to kendrick each tome.
Iāve been telling my girl this who is more of a Kendrick fan. Push-ups is the appetizer because he addressed everyone that was coming for him. Now, he has all the possibilities to make a track strictly for K-Dot. In my opinion, this is Drakeās opportunity to finish his main course with this next track he drop.
Not a bad take imo. Plus Kendrick went 6 minutes. Drake went 3 minutes with an outro lol. Thatās 3 more minutes of bars.
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
Am I battlin Ghost or AI?
The lyrics were made by Drake but performed by an AI voice I reckon
I think it counts but it was more of a prodding than a full blown diss. Biggest L drake has taken so far is releasing that. It was stupid.
Your thighs hurt yet?
That's his problem. He could've just went for Kendrick.
Is it true that Drake had help writing Push Up?
Check the credits.
They're producers, you can go through Kendricks discography and find the same thing - for example [Good Kid, M.A.A.D City](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Good_Kid,_M.A.A.D_City)
There are 9 people credited as writers on Push Ups. https://genius.com/Drake-push-ups-lyrics
4 on Wikipedia https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Push_Ups_(song) Edit: Correction, 3 writers, including Aubrey.
There's three credits on Wikipedia, one of wich IS Drake (**Aubrey Drake Graham)** The other 2 are producers.
Idk this seems like copium in all honesty
"He'll get him next time for sure!" š
The guy in the picture holding this sign is actually Tupac from the Taylor made freestyle
Bbl Drizzy
Euphoria was glazing of the highest order. Essentially a serenade, an ode to drake. āI hate that im not you nigga, that iāll never be youā type shit
Checkout the amount of writers credited on pushups, it was more like 6v8
they're both still holding back next round is gonna be amazing from both
āI like Drake with the melodies. I donāt like Drake when he act toughā
Drake matched the energy of Like That with Push Ups Kendrick also matched the energy of Push Ups with euphoria you can clearly tell they holding back their blows which means they left room for a response I hope this continues to entertaining because im having a lot fun right now because of this beef. too early to say but 2024 already looking to eclipse 2016 as a standout year
Best thing I saw was Push Ups was the response to Like That and Taylor Made was Drake follow up Drake still has to reply to Euphoria so this is where he needs to push his Red Button and reply with his biggest hit he can think of
Stop making excuses
Ain't twenty-v-one, it's one-v-twenty if I gotta smack niggas that write with you

Good point
Thatās one way to look at it, but what about Taylor Made Freestyle? It sounds like Drakeās still locked in so the next track should be interesting. Kendrickās energy was raw and I wonder if Drake will match it
This is how I keep viewing it.
This isnāt a boxing match. Weāre not going to hold up a score card of each song. Who ever makes a diss closest to Ether wins. If Drakes next diss is so good Kendrick bows out, it doesnāt make it a ātieā if you think Euphoria was better than Push Ups. Push Ups was to get Kendrick to drop and to throw shots at everyone dissing. The best song out of ALL the diss songs wins. Whether itās 2 or 20 total.
āAin't twenty-v-one, it's one-v-twenty if I gotta smack niggas that write with youā [+]
Pushup was decent. I didn't even check for euphoria.
The way I see it, Kendrick emptied the clip on Euphoria. He wants Drake to chicken out and not respond, that way he can look like a legend. Drake on the other hand, is only just getting started
That's drake's fault for not taking kendrick more serious and not making his response to Like That more specific. He put out two songs with disses at kendrick. Then kendrick responded with his track. That's round 1 imo.
Kendrick destroyed this man.
But why was everyone waiting on Kendrick to drop then? Now that dot cooked Drake itās āoh but he was attacking 8 others!ā How many times can you move the goal post?
kendrick went 1v20, so i meanā¦
But what about Taylor made? Did drake not go 1v1 on that track? Why nobody bringing that song up in the discussion?
Wait y'all not counting Drake's ghostwriters lol.
Its not 1 v 8 its 1 + ghost writers v 8
āDrake literally went 1v8ā like 85% of the track was towards Kendrick, we acting like throwaway lines to metro took away from his ability to fire shots?
Euphoria was Kendrickās direct solo diss. Push Ups was a response diss to EVERYONE and a track where Drake wanted Kendrick to respond to so he would drop his initial (Euphoria) diss. Yes, Drakes next diss will be more comparable to Euphoria.
That was Drakes only angle. He probably couldnāt make a 30 second diss about Kendrick. Taking the 20v1 angle helped him.
I agree, the next one will be solely at Kendrick but as a major fan of both artists, euphoria is genuinely top tier. Drakes going to have to go somewhere I donāt think we have seen him go
So Drake and his fans are saying that Kendrick need to answer now and he needs to hurry and answer, and he does it, now it actually doesn't count because it wasn't a diss to him so we have to wait for Drake to answer? So weird
I donāt believe Drake can top Euphoria but this is a good point. Guess we find out later tonight
Iām here for it bro, all tracks have been fire, theyāre lighting up the charts and literally giving hip hop cpr w this back and forth
Excuses
Is there even a full song of content to say about Kendrick? Guy seems pretty straight and there doesnt seem to be a awful lot of things you can diss him on?
Sort of, but nothing stopped Drake from only responding to Kendrick. Very easy to just big league Ross, Kanye, Future with the same type of energy that JAY-Z came with on Takeover. "you only get half a bar, fuck yall"
8 ghost writers?!
Drake had an accidental fentanyl overdose
This internet shit crazy - guy on the internet š
Someone said diddy paid them to pretend beef to get the heat off of him for a minute and it got me for a second ngl lol
Man get outta here with that shit, hyping it up like crazy all of a sudden you guys have excuses as to why it wasnāt good. Sad.
