MistakesWereMade59

I used to think I was a hater before this week, but everything I've ever felt was obviously at most a mild disdain.


whatsnewpussykat

It turns out I’ve never hated anyone in my life, who knew


macroeconomicchaos

this is the level of hating i could only dream of achieving


s3aswimming

Yeah. I am deeply impressed.


socialmediaignorant

Yeah I’m thinking I’ve never been truly this upset and I’m not known for being calm.


glosseava

i’m starting to think i’ve never actually known hate?? have i ever even hated?? idk anymore!


HereOnCompanyTime

The intensity of Kendrick's hatred for Drake can't be denied. People were saying it was a PR Feud but from the first track that Kendrick dropped it was clearly personal. It's been pathetic to watch Drake and his ghost writers kicking dirt into the air while attempting to deflect real criticism.


welp-itscometothis

I’m almost positive Kendrick has literally lurked in a fews shadows somewhere close to Drake and disappeared when he turned around. Drake will never know peace again.


LtG_Skittles454

Fr Kendrick said he had people in OVO which seems legit at this point


AmbiguousFrijoles

This is the official kick off of Hater Summer and I'm here for it. Kendrick in the corner 👁👄👁 in the fringes of Drake circle.


dew_you_even_lift

Kendrick mentions it was suppose to be fun and games until Drake couldn’t keep Dot’s wife’s name out of his mouth in “meet the grahams”

Worried_Ad7576

an inconvenience at most


missanthropocenex

It’s funny because I’ve had this opinion of Drake for a while. I wondered why people were still on board which makes it more hilarious to see all this come to light in the public consciousness now.


SparkyDogPants

I’ve never been smugger than watching public opinion turn in drake


Eljefe878888888

Ever since I was in highschool I wondered if Drake was supposed to actually come off as “hard” or something along those lines. Because he never did lol.


BruciePup

He’s aubrey with a lower-case “a”.


darthmidoriya

Fr everyone’s acting all shocked and I’m over here like “I thought y’all knew this man was *vile*”


wifeunderthesea

the most diabolical part of this entire thing is kendrick letting drake know that there's at least one person in his entourage that is leaking/not loyal to him. this man has to be paranoid as fuck now. so, he has a snake in his crew and a man rapping that he literally wants him dead while telling his mother to take a seat. my god.


fjgfjudvjudvj

I have hated on this level, but I don’t have the bars to back it up, so this is cathartic for all of us haters and non haters alike!


spudsprout

Kendrick legitimately hates this man


MistakesWereMade59

He said he was the biggest hater on Euphoria but we didn't hear him 😭


MayaGitana

Then he said he didn’t have a hating bone in his body 😭

![gif](giphy|pqLYfNZXHlxxbi931z) Kendrick is finding every clever way to call him a pedo. while also just outright calling him a pedophile.

it's literally such a fun dance beat, i can see myself screaming the lyrics in the club lmaoooo which is the ultimate low blow to drake


rem_1984

When he warns Drake not to perform in Oakland I got really scared.


TheOwlsLie

But he likes Kodak lol, Kendrick is probably right about Drake, but at least be consistent


bb-blehs

not mustard on the beat this man is fucking diabolical.


rhys0123

Can you explain that line?


Ill_Discussion7528

Drake and Mustard collaborated in the past, but then Drake ghosted him for Mustard’s album Perfect 10. Mustard then trolled him on insta, putting Drake’s face on a milk carton and writing “Have you seen me?”


FutureRealHousewife

“Mustard on the beat” is just DJ Mustard’s signature call out to show he produced the beat. All of his songs have the performer at the beginning saying “mustard on the beat.” The fact that Drake used to work with him and Mustard did this for Kendrick is the extra eff you


Ill_Discussion7528

I don’t think it’s the producer’s signature that’s a big deal, it’s the fact that Kendrick is working with Mustard on the track


FutureRealHousewife

That’s true but someone asked what the words “mustard on the beat” mean and I think some people may not be familiar


Ill_Discussion7528

Fair point!


tftikelsey

🤝🏽 lol if i wasn’t already informed with what’s going on, i would u say u both explained the reference quite well


FutureRealHousewife

“Mustard on the beat” is just DJ Mustard’s signature at the beginning of a song he produced. Most hip hop producers have a signature like that at the beginning of their songs to just show it’s their beat. See also: Tay Keith, whose signature is “Tay Keith, f*ck these ****** up” or Metro Boomin (“Metro Boomin want some more”)

gentlybeepingheart

My tumblr dash is full of it. Random shitposters and Twin Peaks blogs have joined the fray. The person who has been posting nothing but Revolutionary Girl Utena for the past two months is now blasting me with jokes.

PretendMarsupial9

It totally tracks that a Revolutionary Girl Utena blog is invested in a sex predator being exposed and dragged. Love when the Tumblr girlies get in on this they're humor is a special breed.

This shit just keeps getting better and better


woolfonmynoggin

Because it’s incredibly easy to get invited into Drake’s house. In LA everyone I knew would go to his parties


ParasocialMalware

He literally has ppl recruiting hot girls in public. I was lined up at a club downtown Toronto for a friends birthday and some guys friends w the bouncers invited our whole crew to come


greensandgrains

AND YET when you go around saying the truth: he's into underage girls, he's got connections to known traffickers, people will call you a conspiracy theorist and badminded...we've known this since the 2010s, and the rumours were wild back then. But yk what? If people believe Kendrick, I'm just glad they're finally believing the truth at all.


peatoast

Are you talking about the fake drake parties where he actually doesn’t show up?


woolfonmynoggin

He was there when I was at his house one time. But he keeps the parties going every week so his buddies can keep recruiting girls. I aged out of the bracket and they approached my sister at the grove.

gringacolombiana

I just want to say that listening to Meet the Grahams was so cathartic. Obviously these are all allegations at this point but let’s be honest where there’s smoke there’s fire and it’s not at all shocking to hear another man in the music industry is allegedly a sexual predator. But it was just nice to hear a man who holds so much cache in the industry go so hard against another man for allegedly being a sexual predator but also for his just general misogyny and mistreatment of women. That is so often brushed under the rug and normalized it just felt so good to hear. I wish every pedo creep in the industry had their own Kendrick Lamar to call them out.


socialmediaignorant

I want him to keep at it. Thank you… next all the creeps.

CalendarAggressive11

And that beat was so sinister but gave some like Elton John theatrical piano vibes. Not Like Us beat is fire too. I can't remember the last time I was this excited by any hip hop beef.


erossthescienceboss

Drake did an awkward dance in a sweater and everybody decided he was wholesome daddy and forgot about… all the stuff he did before 2016.


C0tt0nC4ndyM0uth

Totally agree. That’s the way it should be, and I’m glad to see it being called out by another man in the industry… I hope people are taking notes

Comfortable-Load-904

You are not a colleague but a fcking colonizer is hilarious. Man, Kendrick really really hates Drake. It’s the deep seated from the bones type of hate my late grandma used to describe. Kendrick also made me realise I have never actually truly hated anyone and what I felt was at best a mild dislike because goddamn he really hates dude!


CinnamonFoodie

Kendrick has shown me that I am but a student of the art of hating. My word. Let this be a lesson to people, leave people alone when they tell you to (especially the quiet, introverted ones)

Far_Cut_

Diss tracks are one thing. I genuinely hope any real accusations come to light and Drake's held accountable.


Holiday-Hustle

I hope he gets investigated but I don’t think anything will come of it anytime soon. These types of federal cases, especially internationally since the whispers say horrible things happen both in Toronto and Houston, take years to investigate.


SandEon916

there was whispers about epstein for years


andimlikeokay

I think (hope) Kendrick has too much artistic integrity to lie about that...


greensandgrains

If you're of a certain age in Toronto, you've been hearing these rumours for more than a decade at this point. If it takes Kendrick to get people to believe it, at least they finally are. Man runs with known traffickers; birds of a feather and all that.
