How Kendrick Lamar Outplayed Drake (Where Drake Went Wrong)

The biggest rap beef of this generation was not just a battle of who made the better music. It was also a battle of strategy and IQ that played out on a worldwide stage that forever changed how both of these hiphop greats are looked at for the rest of time. #rap #drake #kendricklamar

Drake really thought he would win just cuz of how popular he is😂

[@m.o.5291]

Yeah that's it. For the hiphop culture he had a 0% chance to win. He taught he could use his mainstream influence en shenanigans to make the casual audience think he won. As an MC, a true mc, Drake can't even shine Kendricks shoes. Drake ain't even a real MC in the eyes of true hiphopheads

I think his personal problems though stem from not having a well-developed self yet an overly developed persona. It's not the persona who is whoring, drinking, popping percs, gambling and visiting the strip clubs since he's only got the one body. He isn't spending his downtime as Aubrey reading or gardening, etc. He has a child but not really a family life. He lives in a playboy mansion not designed for anyone else but that persona. Thirty-seven year old Aubrey should be about something but he's not. We're kind of just left with Drake.

Ding, ding, ding. He even renounced the “savior figure” people tried to push onto him. Drake tries to have everything at all times.

He seemingly wants the critical acclaim but puts out music constantly regardless of quality as a means of juicing his numbers. He wants to be the guy that you can play in front of your mom but also be this street dude with mob ties and “shooters” despite being a child actor who wouldn’t bust a grape in a fruit fight. He wants cultural cache but doesn’t engage with it beyond using it as a means of accruing capital.

Not only that but it's the fact that kendrick got help and changed his ways and point of views and admitted to it as brutally and plain as he could. Something drake still hasn't done and with the pedo ect claims is smt I don't think change can save. And also the main thing is drake doesn't understand Mr. Morale claims. He aims at it talking about how he though kendrick as a child got touched, how he beats his wife. Which was misinterpretation and a beating allegation that has no evidence or claim by kendrick to it. Which only makes drake look dumb and makes people go "woah?" Or "did he even listen to it?" And him also being on defense but making so said fun of the serious things he is accused of makes him a hypocrite. Drake can never understand kendrick until he changes, he can't understand art nor culture as he cant truly comprehend kdots words and he is proving kendricks point of that 95 percent. What kdot said about him pretty much everything has a digital footprint left by drake himself or family. His minor accusations are caught on camera, his so called fake hood life and cosplay was caught on camera, his prescriptions and receipts were on camera, his children's instragrams are on camera and they all met drake or been in a music video and look exactly like him unlike addonis almost everything kdot said about drake you can look it up and find video evidence

But you see, not everyone has listened to Mr Morale which developed his character in the way you say. But around his TPAB phase he really was about that. Drake was never going to win over a majority of hardcore rap fans who'd listened deeply to K Dot's discography. His win condition was to use his wider pop audience appeal, and those kinds of arguments about K dot being 'fake conscious" might have convinced a lot of people who didn't know better.

Drake was also pressed that the culture doesn't accept him, according to him because he's "biracial". But then he also attacked Kendrick's wife for being mixed, like it's a bad thing. He went after Kendrick potentially raising somebody else's child like that's a bad thing. Just imagine that same line addressed to Eminem, like him adopting three other kids on top of raising his daughter is somehow a bad thing to do. Imagine thinking it's OK to tell a little boy "your dad is not your biological father", and not realizing how below the belt it is. He went on talking about people who were abused and molested as children like it's a funny thing, while being accused of PDF filing and fully aware of how much of his inappropriate behavior with minors is on record, with MBB and Billie Eilish and kissing an underage girl on stage after she told him she's underage. That man's entire thought process is dissonant. It reminds me of how people with antisocial disorders can intellectually grasp ethics in abstract way, but can't internalize it and don't apply it to specific instances in real life.

He is completely at peace with that issue, and took five years to make a double album about it.

The problem with Drake making a point of Kendrick pretending to be a black messiah is the fact that Kendrick literally released an entire album dissecting this point. Also, Noname already tried to make that point already, and it backfired on her when reciepts of Kendrick protesting came out. Not only that, but Kendrick was never comfortable with people painting him as the spokesperson for all black folk, and this stems back to what he said on "Ab-Souls Outro". That was back in 2011. Kendrick can't help the fact that he's black and grew up in hood culture. He's going to see issues whether he comments on it or not. Drake literally is the antithesis of this, and that's why even with that angle, Drake can't win.

Another thing he had too many filler lines in Family Matters.

Nobody cared about some of the stuff Drake was talking about he loves to bring up his money or females that he’s sleeping with or kissing even in a diss song I’m glad he got bodied.

Family Matters has Drake rapping more than hes rapped in like 5 years, but it doesnt matter because how many minutes of that was about Kendrick?? why did he spend time to make a music video instead of writing a better song? because he had nothing to say and didnt even think about the possibility that his red button could be reduced to nothing

[@l.1586]

I'd actually say mentioning Whitney and the entirety of Taylor Made were his worst moves. Family Matters, in my opinion, was his best contribution to the beef. By a long shot. I still think it's a very, very solid song. The biggest issue with it to me is that his best bars aren't directed at Kendrick and it's very apparent he doesn't have much to say about Kendrick, who is the person most people care about him responding to. His strongest jabs at Kendrick are all allegations. Call me a glazer or whatever but, even if you remove the allegations Kendrick levels at Drake, I still think he ultimately comes out with the stronger jabs.

I hadn't thought about that either: that the "slaves freed" line is a double self-own for Drake, not only because everyone hated it, but ALSO because he just fucked up an angle that could have been fruitful if he HADN'T pissed off everybody in the execution. Which, that's pretty similar to the Tupac AI thing, actually. And in both cases a culture failure - which was one of Kendrick's main angles about him! Damn. Lost the fuck out of this.

[@MWTravesty]

Drake taking ownership of being an industry artist and calling out Kendrick for acting jealous would've been a good move, but Drake would never have done that. He's put so much work into trying to seem like he actually is part of the culture, there's no way he would turn around and own up to being an outsider. If he was capable of accepting that his role in the industry is to help more culturally relevant people find success, he wouldn't be who he is right now. We wouldn't be here.
