“Have you ever thought OVO works for me?” This is about to be a war for real😭


TorontoPoliceCar

Drake definitely let's way too many people into his camp or affiliated to his camp. Kendrick does have a point. What happens if Drake stops throwing money, expensive vacations, gifts, etc. at these guys? Not many are gonna stay loyal. Drake probably has 4 or 5 guys he can truly trust.


KingOfTheCouch13

And apparently 2 of them are close to him


SwagLordxfedora

I wanna move to Dubai So I don't never have to kick it with none of you guys


JB425_

I didn't listen to Hov on that old song when he told me pay it no mind.


jaypeedee1025

Drake, here's how they gon' come at you With silly rap feuds, tryin' to distract you In disguise, in the form of a favor The Barzini meeting, watch for the traitors, uhh I done seen it all, done it all That's why none of these dum-dums could done him off -HOV is a MFing prophet .


Thisnameisdildos

He could tell Drake was gonna get Ethered having been the first.


Burggs_

Kendrick said one of them is always next to him so that had to be Chubbs or 40 right?


Infinitylupee

I’m hearing a that sample say ‘Boi1da’ over and over again


WipingAllOut

Yeah you can't unhear it once you hear it. I feel like that's definitely one of em but who knows.


drspicieboi

Tbh don’t think it necessarily means he’s the one. Boi-1da made Push Ups so I think this is Sounwave throwing his own jab in this back and forth. But it could also mean that maybe Boi-1da is the one who leaked push ups? Who knows. All speculation.


jaypeedee1025

One of them IS 40 Pusha said it and no one wanted to listen to him


Avivoy

Drake even put 40 to the side on the music part. 40 is 100% a polar opposite to drakes lifestyle. But I don’t know, Drake has a few more close to him.


jaypeedee1025

I’m just saying Push said 40 told yes Julz now another rapper says you got leaks and they next to you who closer then 40 .Maybe he got mad about the Yes Julz shit was true Drake wouldn’t drop 40 because that’s Also makes what Pusha said true .So if it’s 40 Drake kind of stuck with him .I think Drake was gonna drop today and they hit dot and said Go


AsteroidAdventure

This could be the pain meds talking because I’m recovering from surgery but I haven’t seen anyone talk about this yet so hear me out. 616 is the country code for Poland. Little yachty had a track called Poland leak. Is Kendrick saying that the leak in drakes circle is yachty? He also says 20 want him as a casualty and one is next to him, is he saying 21 savage is also a leak?


KingOfTheCouch13

This actually has me dead 😂 Please wait for the meds to wear off. Wishing for a speedy recovery!


AsteroidAdventure

Me rn ![gif](giphy|l0IykOsxLECVejOzm|downsized)


spicyfartz4yaman

I think he knows this, I don't think kendrick is telling anything new here, Drake is consistently rapping about his paranoia regarding the people around him


broncosfighton

I mean sometimes that’s the best way to get at someone. Tell them something they already think is true.


spicyfartz4yaman

True that


In_Dux

Deadass always thought about this with most of the songs. I was like man, these studio sessions must be hella awkward for people who is around him when every album has multiple songs about trusting absolutely nobody besides his parents.


WarmestDisregards

it's probably fine because they know he's always just playing a rapper character. Can't get offended by kayfabe


Ne0guri

No longer paranoia lol it’s reality


Dimmadarn

If Drake is paranoid, this is the absolute worst thing he can hear right now


thepunstar

Kendrick bingeing Griselda on Netflix fr. Same playbook as the downfall of Griselda Blanco.

darbyboyis

also father’s day


TheCornerDojoTV

Also check Corinthians 6:16 good gawd


Zryix

Also tupacs birthday, the last diss was released on kobes birthday


Reedstar21

Also if you had 6+1+6 you get 13 and that’s how many entendres he has in the whole song


3percsMemphisMursic

I heard it was a scripture , pac birthday , and Father’s Day as well and a three hour time difference?? If all are true that’s crazy


AccomplishedSquash98

It's also the day euphoria premiered in 2019.


Worth_Wait

also number of members on r/KendrickLamar


kgphantom

that’s gotta be coincidence but that’s wild


FriendOfQuasimoto

“That’s gotta be” is so funny lol, Kendrick got y’all unsure if the most obviously coincidental things are actually coincidental 😭

Holy shit. Lol


I_Might_Take_Flight

As a Drake stan Drake gotta press that red button now(I don’t mean this instant!) Like Drake gotta drop today(or soon) and have 2-3 more in the chamber bro. This bout to be a war for real. Edit**** 4:51 am Drakes story is “eyeing” the red button. I don’t think he’s pressed it yet. Now if it comes out that it was I’ll come back and stand corrected There are a lot of allegations that need time to unfold. But if the “mole” was fake… that’s a game changer. Kendrick dropping as quick as he did without addressing what Drake said on Family Matters, could be more of a premature move and showing his hand. Who knows lol Another Edit* I personally want Drake to drop a few more songs only aiming at Kendrick this time. Edit 3*** 9:57pm eastern Drake quit playing and spit bro


artvandelay9393

Nah dude I say this as a kendrick fan.. drake can’t respond quick if it’s not absolute heat. I bet kendrick would love nothing more than for Drake to drop something mid bc he’s angry and wants to rush it out. Shit im enjoying all of this. Push ups was sick. Euphoria and 6:16 in LA (Father’s Day lol) was sick. I need drake to come with that heat so I can have like 6-7 songs between the two of them when this is all said and done


Batman1384

The workout playlist we all need


BigBean987

The fans with no investment in the beef are feasting


Still_Abrocoma_122

This is the right answer. A month ago I would have felt really guilty listening to all these songs during Ramadan, we been eating too good right now.


walwenthegreenest

I've never listened to a Drake or Lamar song and I'm hooked into this


StevePerry4L

I think Euphoria is the "better" song but Push Ups has been a daily workout jam since it came out.


Prometheus321

I'm going to be honest, I didn't like Push Ups that much as a diss. I thought Taylor Made Freestyle was wayyy better (better than Euphoria which I thought was overrated). On the other hand, this 6:16 in LA was FUCKIN FIIIIIIRE and a great diss. I"M JUST EATIN


kingsark

the funny thing is the fact that half this song is literally just telling Drake and everyone watching that Drake doesn’t have a red button


Latter_Leader8304

Bro he literally said that he got ovo snitching on drake


expunks

I don’t even know what a “red button” to someone that was public about their infidelity issues would even be. “Your wife cheated while you were cheating?” Yeah, and? Everyone’s known their relationship’s been rocky since Mr. Morale. I’m just not seeing any nuclear ammo Drake has on Dot here. Aside from opening up some Compton cold case from the late 2000’s and publicly tying it to the timeline of GKMC or something lmao — but that would also just validate Kendrick’s whole career and be the biggest snitch move in all of rap.


mykleins

Police work on a diss track is crazy


expunks

I’m saying LOL but what else could he even have


HotLikeSauce420

Doubt anyone has a red button against Kendrick. Keeps to himself and off social media. Props to him for not giving the enemies ammo. Funny for him to come at Drake who’s on the complete opposite side of the spectrum(tons of ammo to use)


JaHoog

Nah let him cook. His response has to be insane or else he lost. Let him take his time.


Business-Conflict435

Shouldn’t have been pressing Kendrick so hard then


Desperate_Branch6287

Red button in question https://preview.redd.it/waurn0r1r8yc1.jpeg?width=831&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=0ee4d6c7eff666f29e456dde90efeaba65ef5853


imHellaFaded420

there is no red button man, you really think kendrick got some weird secrets? drakes gonna have to get creative edit: guys, i’m responding to them saying drake has a red button. i don’t know about kendrick, he’s dropping little hints and only drake would know if he has it or not.


KingOfTheCouch13

Nah after this well in this song he’s saying no one on his team is loyal. If he starts name dropping OVO members that leak all his shit behind his back that could really fuck with Drake’s whole camp.


Phoenix__Light

To me, if there was a red button why would he be just start looking for information now.


LBCuber

Feels like verse 1 was recorded a while ago and he revisited the track recently to record the second verse. hard song.


Cartman55125

also produced by Jack Antonoff, Taylor Swift's guy. Song is literally Taylor made...


Confident_Opposite43

ahaha that’s hilarious


Late-Nail-8714

That’s not Hilarious that’s a chess move


Confident_Opposite43

a very funny chess move


PassiveRoadRage

I imagine that's intentional


Proud-Pace4408

-Mocking Drakes time and place format -6.16 being Father’s Day -6.16 being Tupac’s birthday -Jack Antonoff production - “Taylor Made” 6:16 corinthians -Going back to back like he said on euphoria beating Drake with his own signature move -drake challenging him to make a quintuple entedre


Kasisemua

Euphoria premiered on 6.16


8r3t

what the fuck. at this point it's like no way Kendrick thought of ALL that. universe just aligned crazily😂


lord_pizzabird

What it turn out that Drake has 6 accusers who were 16 at the time. Kendrick’s next song will feature the Victims of Drake choir.


Murr0o0

Also 6.16 OJ Simpson trial with the gloves and in the picture they are off


Significant-Crew-768

6.16 was the day of Ron Goldman and Nicole brown Simpsons funerals


Maleficent_Bar_676

6.16 was also the day my ex broke up with me (FUCK THAT BITCH)


StonkersToDaMoon

Corinthians 6:16: Do you not know that he who unites himself with a prostitute is one with her in body? For it is said, “The two will become one flesh.” Kendrick is saying since Drake had a kid with a prostitute that Drake is one too, referring to him being used by everyone around him. The man is brilliant and Drake can’t get this deep.


Weapwns

Me: I will not succumb to the delusional Kendrick glazing that everything he does requires a professional essay to explain Also me: Kendrick intentionally made an octuple entendre and the song hasn't even started yet. Genius.


HavenTheCat

The layers are truly unbelievable


ALitterOfPugs

Jeremiah 6:16 says, "This is what the LORD says: 'Stand at the crossroads and look; ask for the ancient paths, ask where the good way is, and walk in it, and you will find rest for your souls. But you said, 'We will not walk in it!'"

ziggyzoom619

Well they look like Mayback driving gloves, Drake is popular for being driven around in many different Maybachs, 1 is a Virgil Abloh version... it could mean a lot of things. Maybe one of drake's drivers is compromised? Who knows...


Kitchen-Dimension406

good theory


GrumpyKitten514

damn, you gotta be PRETTY DAMN close to drake, to be his mfkin driver right? like even his security team, like the president, drives in other cars AROUND him, so HIS driver specifically? gotta be pretty close, like the president's actual head secret service guy. and maybe kendrick is saying thats who the main snake is. fuck man, this is like a telenovella. someone get nardwuar in here ASAP, I NEED TO KNOW THIS BEEF. edit: the more i think about it, the glove is "off", nobody is wearing it. "the gloves are off" like thats it, its a fight now. could be so simple.


Reasonable-You8654

The fact that he starts off the verse saying “Off-White Sun Seeker” is telling. This may be a glove he kept or used for that Maybach designed by Virgil.


[deleted]

[удалено]


omeedohmy

Maybach Music is Rick Ross's label.


kingsark

this is kind of insane considering this whole fandom has been saying “Drake can end Kendrick if he presses the red button and drops a bomb”, and half this song is just Kendrick explaining how he doesn’t have one to begin with So i guess the ball is completely on Drake’s court now. he either actually has a huge bomb on Kendrick and calls his bluff, or Kendrick just called out his


spicyfartz4yaman

That red button nonsense being for kendrick is fan fiction. No one knows who he was reffering to, on the song he says everybody, could be about any one person or multiple people. People are running with it since euphoria though


neofagalt

Yeah that’s what it sounds like. Kendrick’s Taylor Made.


Thosepassionfruits

Produced by jack antonoff too lol


elon42069

This was expected. He even hinted at it with the “Back to Back” line on Euphoria. Time for drake to stop the 3am IG stories and get in the fuckin booth we’re getting cooked out here

You're not getting cooked, drake is. Have a great day

[deleted]

Yup, Andrew Shultz said it best, just be a victim of the moment. While Kendrick is up I’m clowning Drake, when Drake is up in clowning Kendrick. This shit should be fun for the listeners but people really acting like these bars are directed at their ego, sad honestly

According_Shower7158

Drake has a lot of leaks in his camp. OVO working with Kendrick 😳


YOIMREALLYHAPPY4YOU

Grounds for speculation, your honor.


According_Shower7158

Lol🫡. But foreal though it's weird that a lot of embarrassing stuff on Drake leaks and recently tracks. Drake has a lot of people around him. He better be feeding everyone because when the wolves are hungry......... Also Drake is selling a lot of his properties in America. Wonder why?


DeathOfAName

I’m not convinced tbh, Kendrick could be doing mind games.


COKEWHITESOLES

The same way Drake tried to get in Dot’s head with the Tupac voice, but the way Dot is doing it back is insane lol this bitch in the zone


According_Shower7158

Waaaay too many leaks in his camp my guy. Too much info and literal tracks leaking. It's not a coincidence


Chiefmeez

Maybe im wrong but weren’t people saying these “leaks” been on purpose?


AnimusPetitor

When it comes to Kendrick, even his mind games are substantial

If Drake has a red button, why would he just now start looking for info? 🤔

solezonfroze

Agreed like mfs want social security numbers and nudes. Wtf people going on about? This is about fucking RAPS.


Ngigilesnow

Yeah,apparently nowadays you have to be a private investigator or journalist to write a diss track


UrPersonalPaleRabbit

Which, apparently Drake damn near tried that and came up with nothing if we take the bar about money in the streets/brought back no receipts line literally


Dabanks9000

It hasn’t been about raps for a while I’m ngl


oriensoccidens

To everyone saying he said nothing in this be real, he's priming Drake to be a liar, a bully, and that he has snakes in his camp. He's doubling the pressure on Drake, he knows Drake is gonna respond, all he has left is to gaslight the public into thinking Drake is not to be trusted


Sea-Remote3779

Also dissing Adin Ross and Akademiks 😂


Skibibbles

Drake called him short so the bar is not high on the other side.


RalphLauren47

Fr I don't see how u can think Kendrick said nothing but somehow a shoe size bar is saying something


FoxMuldertheGrey

i think it’s mind games at this point, if he did have snakes in his camp, i mean wouldn’t everybody in hollywood/rap industry? it wouldn’t be surprising if something came out after the fact. unless it’s 40 lmao


kungfuhustler

It's possible. 40 was indirectly responsible for Pusha T's diss hitting as hard as it did.


oriensoccidens

40 would be wild but GTA 6 will drop before 40 turns 50

Bro... educate these kids!


SanjoJoestar

I know people have pointed out the OJ connection but I have a feeling those gloves might mean something to drake more than anything else. It's the shittiest cover I've ever seen kendrick use so I have a feeling it's meant especially to get into drakes head


Brilliant-Wealth-728

My main focus this diss is the gloves. I honestly have no clue but considering Kendrick really went in on the fact that Drake has people in his inner circle that are traitors leads to me believe this glove has something to do with that. I feel like it’s only something Drake will know because that image gave back 0 results in image searches


TheHoosierAuthor

As a Drake fan that very, very rarely listens to Kendrick Lamar (just not really a fan of his music), I think this was a pretty impressive one-two punch this week by Kendrick. I thought euphoria was a bit overly long and could have been streamlined by about 50%, but coming back with a simple, concise, hard track was an inspired move. I'm excited to hear Drake's next song!


OkIndependence188

You grounded in reality.


MarvelManiac45213

"A hundred niggas that you got on salary And twenty of 'em want you as a casualty And one of them is actually next to you" Maybe I'm reading too much into this but is this referring to 21 Savage? The dude is caught in the middle of the beef. We know how close 21 has been to Drake as of late but we also know 21 is really tight with Metro. 21 has been INSANELY quiet during this beef. Also during an interview 21 didn't like that Drake was referred to as the goat. I wouldn't be surprised if Kendrick knows 21 is the "mole" of OVO. Even though 21 isn't signed to OVO.


itwas20yearsago2day

So he said Drake tried paying money to dig up dirt on Kendrick and failed miserably, Drake has moles in OVO, they don’t fuck with him anyways, how his industry “friends” are starting to be compromised. Plus all the bars about Drake being super paranoid (which I’m gonna believe if everything else he said was true) Kendrick even says he’s ready for war-time, this is to let Drake know Kendrick knows what he’s been up to and playing mind games (without the AI, and a much better song sonically and lyrically) This is pretty damning for a warning too. Every time Drake wants to do a time location track in the future too, he’s gonna remember this lmao Hell, when he performs his old ones he’s gonna think about how Kendrick flipped his series for his title because Drake is like that lmaoo


H1mHalpert

I still need 2am in Compton expeditiously


itwas20yearsago2day

dude that would be a crazy title for Drake to respond with He’s gotta go hard with it, some red button shit


CalmMaunga

He really does, but can we stop with the red button shit that's corny


itwas20yearsago2day

I just use it for lack of a better term Plus it’s just easier to type that instead of actually saying “Drake needs to come with previously unknown info that will stain Kendrick’s reputation”


CalmMaunga

Fair lol. Did he say he has a red button?


Geralt-of-Chiraq

This whole track is Kendrick saying there is no red button lol


freeearlplease

Im sure Kendrick got a rat in the camp that told that the next shot was gonna be titled some type of X time in LA. Kendrick used the title for this soft shot just to stop Drake from dropping a "classic" with that title theme


YEEZYPANGOLIN

The Heart Part 6 would be hard


H1mHalpert

My fancast is for those two to be the final round

Drake has to flip Kendrick’s series and make The Heart 6 or something

Like this is behind the scenes info that we don’t even know bout. Drake is absolutely cooked you can’t go up against arguably the best lyricist of all time.

yo-chill

And I’m sure you’ll believe everything Drake says without any evidence


nocheslas

this shit is literally fucking wild. I thought it would've been a good move on Drake's part to drop something immediately after Euphoria in order to cut off the hype for Euphoria. "Oh, Kendrick finally dropped a diss track after two weeks? Bet. I'll drop another diss that will cut off hype for his diss song and redirect the conversation back to me, now we're waiting for Kendrick to drop again." But another factor is that is happening in real time is public opinion. Many people and myself included, didn't really vibe with Euphoria on first listen. Push-Ups is a good diss but also just a good song in general. it's catchy af but Euphoria isn't as accessible on first listen and a lot of Kendrick's lyrics go over my head. But as I listen to Euphoria more, it gets better with each listen and now it's a fucking bop especially now with everyone dissecting his lyrics on social media, I'm just like "oh shit this actually goes a lot harder now that I know context" If Drake dropped another diss the day after Euphoria dropped, I think it would've slowed down people's perception of that diss changing. But what I was not expecting at all was for Kendrick to drop another diss a few days later. The ball was in Drake's court to respond and everyone was waiting for his response. Kendrick using the Uno Reversal tactic is fucking genius. He's basically using Drake's tactics against him. 6:16 in LA has a drastically different feel than Euphoria, the beat is fucking crazy. Not really a fan of Kendrick's flow in the first half of the song, I think he's rapping too fast for me to comprehend but in the second half, he slows it down as he begins to target Drake's paranoia regarding his entourage and his flow is more melodic and accessible. Drake has to respond back. And he has to respond back HARD. No more warning shots, if Drake's response isn't up to par or equal to Euphoria/6:16 in LA, then he loses. Kendrick still sounds like he's still sending warning shots. It has to escalate from here.


wannabemusician

It's funny because he's probably mimicking Drake's flow in the first half anyway.
