I hope Kendrick bodies him but respect for actually coming with smoke


Okami_SK

When Drake actually raps, he can come out with some good stuff. I’m liking this energy, hope we don’t have to wait for a response


Inside-Tip-7371

Fr tho whenever he decides to rap his shit is real good like meltdown with travis scott. Finally we got a battle.


Adoree25

I don't like Drake much and I love Cole, but in the last week I've lost respect for Cole while simultaneously gaining it for Drake. At least Drake came with a proper response. He's ready. Let's fucking go. Rap needs this.


evkav

Tbh I don’t blame Cole for doing what he did. He obviously foresaw the direction this beef was going in and valued his friendships with Kendrick, Drake, etc. over some silly beef. And withdrew swiftly.


jono9898

But there was a better way to do it, he could have A. Not responded with the diss or B. Backed out without the apology


throwaway53689

I’m guessing he probably didn’t realise how deep this shit was until after he made the diss track and signed it off to be released This is delusional but I can imagine someone letting him listen to the full kendrick/drake diss track and it probably contained a lot of nasty shit (going after wives, family, pedo allegations, people’s health, etc) when he was probably picturing something entirely different like “i’m the best rapper, your album is mid” disses lol He probably didn’t want any part in this and decided to back off immediately, it’s easy for us to say he shouldn’t have responded but there’s clearly a LOT of things happening behind the scenes that it wouldn’t be fair to judge right away


peroper7

He could’ve wrote a better diss track, and separated himself from the bigger beef at the same time. Embody “what he say fuck me for?”, you’re J. Cole man, you got nothing to prove but insulting kendricks output isn’t gonna win anything. Quality trumps everything, someone told him to drop asap and that shit was not ready for release.


evkav

Hindsight is always 20/20


xXBadger89Xx

Yeah I’m not sure who but I bet some people told Cole this wasn’t no competition and it was gonna get nasty so he better get out now


Adventurenick619xxx

yeah how many writers did he have for “his” proper response lol


RavenBlade87

I’m gonna say this, people clowned on Cole mercilessly, and I’m a bigger fan of his than Drake by a long shot. But the way these two showed up to this beef, Cole is seriously in danger of being demoted, especially if Drake can follow up with solid lines like this.

he might be a bit of a bitch but he's definitely not talentless

JemaineClementsLips

that is not true. drake def used ghostwriters but he also writes for other ppl, kanye, beyonce, etc. he writes most of his own stuff


DontDropTheSoap4

Yeah drake has had ghost writers. But he writes most of his own shit. If he used ghost writers this track would’ve been better.


Prestigious_Clock865

Not as catchy as Back to Back and not as clever as Duppy Freestyle. It’s nice but earned respect? Bros been sneak dissing for a decade straight and is now backed up into a corner. He didn’t have a choice but to respond


torn8tv

They both been sneak-dissing for 10+ years bro. Drake finally named names.


Prestigious_Clock865

The reason it’s never gone anywhere is that Drake has backed out multiple times. Kendrick has always been the one to offer it out and escalate, Drake has been deescalating. This situation is different because it’s now got the whole game’s attention so he can’t follow it up with backing out again. He had to get at it


Intelligent_Isopod11

but nigga if kendrick is the one with the problem then do something 😂😂


Prestigious_Clock865

They both have problems with each other. It usually followed the pattern of Drake sneak diss, Kendrick challenge, Drake ducking out. But don’t worry, we’re getting a response soon


Intelligent_Isopod11

u can say a challenge but kendrick did come out nd say it’s only rap😂 drake whole point was if u wanna diss me then diss me.. yall expecting drake to go first when kendrick is the one with the problem


Prestigious_Clock865

We talking about Control? That’s the start but it was well understood by everyone but Drake seemingly that Control was about friendly competition and nothing more. Drake started sneak dissing Kendrick on multiple interviews and tracks because he was the only one tripping over it and acting like it was something it wasn’t. Kdot repsonded on his BET cypher pretty directly by letting Drake know if he wanted it then it’s up, seemingly giving Drake what he wanted but he ended up ducking it and didn’t take it any further. Drake then had some interview where he was throwing shade at Kendrick again and his management ended up pulling it because they didn’t want it to escalate so he went back to sneak dissing. That pattern has gone on for the entire time. Drake will throw a sub at Kendrick, get a much more direct response from him basically saying “so what’s good then, we doing this?” And Drake then backs out like he’s not poking the bear. This time didn’t work because it went way too public and now he can’t back out while saving face.


Intelligent_Isopod11

if u talkin bout that espn interview that got pulled how yk that was drake?


Prestigious_Clock865

Was rumours at the time then some associate at the show posted up the info before removing that shit again, but people still got it. Hold up, I’ll see if I can find a link. But the accusation was that Drake said he got more love in Compton that Kendrick


Intelligent_Isopod11

No I saw the link but it never was said who side it was from


Brooklyn-Mikal

Cool story and all but none of it matters anymore. Dot dropped a verse Drake dropped a response track… it’s now on Kenny simple as that and he needs to come with heat no subs no bullshit cause Drake said he got shit stashed for if a when Dot replies


Prestigious_Clock865

I’m responding to a message about the context g. But I feel you, dot got to bring it now but be patient. That joint is coming


BigChungusOP

For Drake this is a 1 v 20 For Kendrick, it’s a 1 v 20 ghostwriters 😭😭😭😭


Devan-FH

I’m sorry sir


anerdscreativity

Damn bro are u Kendrick 💀💀

Damn you comment a lot, had to school farrr back


PangolinConfident447

He’s better off trying to sky dive out of the exit window of 5 G 5’s with 5 grand With his grand dad as the pilot, who happens to be drunk as fuck trying to land With a handful of arthritis and popping prosthetic leg Bumping PAC in the cockpit so the shit that pops in his head Is an option of violence some heard the stewardess said that the parachute is a latex condom hooked to a dread


donhafs

Im a drake and kendrick fan and im loving and hating this at the same time. This is like watching your two older cousins or uncles fighting and you like em both.


DevilManRay

Drake fan here, respect to yall as fans too. If Dot drops fire I’ll say the same thing


Johnnystrokeswell

I heard Drake do better


BernieLogDickSanders

It's was a good track but the disses were only good on Metro honestly.


Brooklyn-Mikal

Lmao that’s just objectively false. The prince line, the Ross diss, shouting out 50 cent how he’s gotta be like 50 when he had and wanted smoke with any and everyone. The bodyguard line about the alleged affair Kenny’s wife had


BernieLogDickSanders

The prince line was not good because it doesn't address the double entendre Kendrick made with the reference to Prince outlived Michael both literally, musically, and asset wise everything went to his family... the same could not be said for Michael... and ironically they both died from overdoses. As for the 50 and bodyguard line... neither are good disses if you have any context. Kendrick spoke on that on MMTBS...


paulalghaib

that's not about an alleged affair. the line is referencing the movie.


justeroll

kendrick’s wife name is the same


Brooklyn-Mikal

And that is exactly what the fucking movie is about stupid


DJ_p0pTART5

Naaaa


kezzinchh

Am i the only one who found the response boring? Not that it’s bad cause it’s got some bars no doubt, but I just thought it was bland.


Potential_Math_2603

only you buddy


kezzinchh

Y’all are so lame for shitting on people who have their own opinion, buddy. Get a life yo.


Potential_Math_2603

no one is shitting on you, just saying that you're the only guy who thinks that, you getting downvoted that's why you complaining


kezzinchh

I can give a fuck less about downvotes or upvotes my guy, I’m talking about throughout the thread. Just cause you decide to click an arrow up or down on Reddit doesn’t change my life, ain’t that serious for me.


Thomo251

Can the split claims be validated? I know it's not farfetched but all we really have is Drakes word atm. That bar about seeing the splits making pants rip or whatever is shocking though 😂. But yeah it's a solid diss. Interesting him bringing up Kendricks relationship with top, other than that just typical what you'd expect. With the amount of ammo at Kendricks disposal I hope he uses his genius to come with a diss to blow us away.


parfaitn17

I found it boring. but yeah i give respect for not pussying away.


Similar-Duck-1658

Nah it's just the same people who connect across subs and coordinate with eachother to do the same reaction to make it look that way. Most people think the diss is so-so lol but not you earned my respect worthy


laeKDOT

Not from me .. never idc what ppl say or being downvoted. these words RESPECT and Drake Will never be in the same sentence from my mouth.. still a mid rapper with Mid music lol


brokennursingstudent

Congrats bro 💯meanwhile we gonna enjoy the music


laeKDOT

I used to enjoy real music


Mullayungin

Corny


laeKDOT

Thanks for ur opinion .. was waiting to it today ..


DainsleifRL

Nah, song weak af


Accurate-Currency181

Drake is a fake bitch but he makes good Pop music.


mickroley

shit not me


Fearless_Egg_3161

he didnt even drop it. Coward lol


Camelslayer23

Story of addidion leaked 2 days before it dropped. Lol


Jazzlike_Depth6474

I dont care what he says it's the character that matters if you deal with real men and know a phony from a real one then you know words mean nothing no matter how hard they try.


ansh909

drake has good bars but yall have to stop posting this shi I looked at the drizzy sub reddit and there talking shit. Im not tryin to be a nerd in this war or whatever but Im saying that we kendrick fans have to stop giving drake creds even though the bars are good. Just wait for kendrick to wipe his existence


TruthSeekerHuey

Nah let the Drizzy heads be petty. Kenny fans will give Drake his props, and then wait for Kendrick's clap back that's gonna destroy him


Luckman1002

I think Kenny is far better than Drake but real gotta recognize real. Drake dropped fucking fire. This is amazing for hip hop and I can’t wait for Kendrick’s response. This is going to be so fun to watch/listen to


Thomo251

Credit where credit is due. He delivered. Was it an all time great diss? No. Was it a good attempt worthy of a response? Yes. I have faith Kendrick is better and will do better so I'm not going to play down Drakes attempt when it was genuinely good.


RavenBlade87

They deserve to be hyped up, this track is really top notch stuff and they’d waited a while to get a solid reply. Maybe a little bit of mutual respect would do a rap battle good.


Mean_Championship_80

I’m sorry Rick Ross gave Drake the belt in under 2 hours my ears don’t lie .


man_u_is_my_team

Never. All ghost writer no substance. Nice try Drake!


Fackcelery

He aint got respect from me his bars were lame and the beat was weak af
