[@noiburg8866]

One of the biggest misconceptions in hip hop is that Kendrick’s Control verse is a diss. There is always competition between artists in the rap industry, he was just highlighting that in his verse.

[@igweifeanyi5326]

slow, hope you get ahead in life with this mentality

[@NETBases]

​@@igweifeanyi5326He's not wrong, Big K.R.I.T.'s response, MT. OLYMPUS highlighted the fact that while Kendrick called out a lot of rappers, he didn't even say anything bad about them. In that response instead of going at Kendrick he attacks the rap industry for taking an open invite and trying to turn it into the news of the week, that the rap industry doesn't really care about who is lyrical, they just want to have something to talk shit about. I recommend it, the track both Original and Reprise go hard and it's an example of a measured response that saw the whole situation for what it was.

[@isaacs.9383]

It’s funny how Drakes critics of Kendrick have transferred on to his own career, 10 years later. The transition from a phase of adult productivity to a more trend-centric approach raises questions about the longevity of this strategy. While Drake's success with hit singles is undeniable, there's a valid concern about the sustainability of relying solely on short-term trends. As audiences evolve, the desire for substantial, cohesive bodies of work may resurface, emphasizing the importance of balancing instant gratification with enduring artistic depth for long-term relevance.

[@XandrewXchapmanX]

Kendrick tried to bring competition back to rap with out real beef. The best records in hip hop come from ppl taking shots but back then it was over real shit that could lead to real violence. Take Tupac vs Biggie, Dre vs easy, cube vs nwa,50 vs everyone lol Imo if there was real beef with Kendrick and any other rapper Kendrick would cook them in a battle of songs

[@Professorxrh17]

@xandrewxchapmanx When it comes to rap Drake is better than kendrick at 1. Songwriting / hitmaking (86 #1’s) 2. Double/ triple entendres 3. Word associations/ word flips 4. Schemes 5. Quotables 6. Punchlines 7. Gun bars 8. Sports bars 9. Hooks 10. features 11. Luxury rap (omertà) 12. Trap music 13. Club/ party music 14. Drill 15. Rap beef 16. Melodic rap (girls love Beyoncé, how bout now, laugh now cry later) 17. Rap beef (meek, common, Pusha . Kendrick is better at storytelling. So with that being said, Kendrick is NOT battle tested in rap so we don’t know how he would do should a beef occur. So we can’t give him an edge over any battle tested rapper.

So you're going to just over look Drake not just down playing Kendrick in interviews but then turning around and shooting subliminal shots at him? If we are going to keep all the way a buck. Drake's beef is deeper than that control verse all the blatant subliminal shots Dot sent back at him. Drake is the dude that desperately wants the approval of hip hop but committed cardinal sins that bar him from getting the flowers he feels he deserves. Its clear, just look at the people he goes back and forth with. Kendrick represent that position in hip hop he wanted. He wanted to be hip hops champion. Which Ironically makes him look like a goof because in my opinion he is top 3 of his generation but ego is a drug that will make you play yourself.

Its so funny how Karma works 😂😂😂 Drake talking about how Control was a moment but now his albums are basically moments ppl remember. Kendrick albums are works of art that transcends music 🎶 MMATBS is art. FATD is a moment

FATD is definitely not a moment. There are some classics on there.

[@MaLii3WaLii3]

I got love for them all. That control verse set the bar and all of them exceeded it in their own way. I think this society is too fixated on putting great artists against one another because the "Beef" era was profitable. But look how it turned out. How many great artists lost their lives. Like I'm happy that this generation of Hip Hop and Rap has people like Kendrick, Cole and Drake. Because they matured and fathering this newer generation of artists the same way as their forefathers of Hip Hop and Rap did.

It’s strange to say you wanna murder someone then say why is the media pinning me against this guy. Bro faker then some yeezys😂

[@bigbankbria]

that interview didn't age well for Drake because I think we can all say that his best album was Nothing Was The Same and since then has been taking a complete fall compared to Kendrick channeling his inner beast and doing exactly what he said in that verse on how he wanted to body everyone.

Kendrick came in the game like 50 did u gotta come for the big dawgs head and go hard drake was just mad because he knew Kendrick was more lyrical and had the potential to be bigger than him thats why he tried ta downplay the situation like he wasn't bother but if ur not bothered u wouldn't speak on it drake a puccy😂😂

reason why kenny hasn't is because drake didn't directly diss kendrick, or name dropping him. the candy man line was a warning to not call kenny out by name or drake is cooked

[@samsoniteman]

Drake is the most successful rap artist ever. Basically, the Lebron of rap and it's crazy how much he still hates on Kendrick after his guest spot on Take Care and after GKMC because he gets one thing that Drake never really can obtain he so desperately wants - genuine love, respect, and admiration from the hip hop community and Black culture in general. Drake sold out for it years ago and Kendrick changed the culture (like Drake did too) without losing himself. You can hear the jealousy all in his remarks about Kendrick. Sad for real.

[@anutoldlegend89]

But that's the sad part, people think that relevance and fame always equate to the same thing. Drake hasn't had that type of relevance for over a decade now. He chases relevance with the youth more than being memorable. His greatest trick is making everyone forget that he's pushing 40.

I think pumping out albums too soon is what set the bar low, so the 3-4-5 years is valid to have a quality album. I know we want new music constantly, but classic albums take time

[@javierameh8848]

Drake talking about consistency. Ironic and funny enough the control verse of Kendrick will always be talked about for years. Also, kendrick has more classic albums and replay values than Drake. I feel like Drake underrated Kendrick but Kendrick has grown in craft than Drake. Also, Kendrick till today never really talks about Drake or wants to chop anything up, but Drake had been trying to kiss Kendrick a$$. He was vibing to kendrick music on tour and many more

[@HELLO-ln2oc]

Kendrick has more replay value then Drake pimp a butter fly & mmdtbt has more replay value then Drake album

[@Professorxrh17]

@javierameh8848 When it comes to rap, drake is better than Kendrick at 1. Songwriting / hitmaking (86 #1’s) 2. Double/ triple entendres 3. Word associations/ word flips 4. Schemes 5. Quotables 6. Punchlines 7. Gun bars 8. Sports bars 9. Hooks 10. features 11. Luxury rap (omertà) 12. Trap music 13. Club/ party music 14. Drill 15. Rap beef 16. Melodic rap (girls love Beyoncé, how bout now, laugh now cry later) 17. Rap beef (meek, common, Pusha) . Drake has 4 classic albums (take care, nothing was the same, views and WATTBA) and and 3 classic mixtapes (comeback season , so far gone, and IYRTITL) That’s 7 classics lol. What classics does Kendrick have in your opinion?

Correction about the King Kunta song. King Kunta was released in March of 2015 a few months before Meek Mill sent his tweet in July of 2015 saying Drake doesn't write his raps. Kendrick couldn't have responded to a beef that hadn't even started yet, but it probably was about Drake lol
