Kendrick Lamar will kill your favorite rapper for money

Trying to decide if the Joel Osteen thing is a joke or he just didn't bother to google the name.

makes it funnier, honestly. like he was so mad he didn't even bother double-checking

god is it funny

the hates of delirium

thick as a ‘drick

and a Jackson all in my house

is this ... an Art Ensemble of Chicago reference?

The other minutes is just Kendrick rating all of Drake’s songs

It works as a trailer for future (and hopefully better) diss tracks

the hates of delirium

I loled

another track dropped, this one with an Al Green sample

These are both wonderful, reminding me of why I fell in love with Kendrick to begin with (“Rigamortis” and the Cypher appearance)

omg my favourite Al Green song thank you based Kendrick

Now THIS is strong

first half of this is the most enjoyable music he's made in quite a while

I'm excited by the idea that Kendrick has people in Drake's inner circle. I've heard a lot of dirt on Drake for a long time so if it's all true it could be devastating

"YOU USED A LINT ROLLER ON LIVE TV"
"YOU LOVE MY SUSHI ROLL, HOTTER THAN WASABI"
"YOU GOT SHOT"

Ha and Jack Antonoff confirmed he’s a co-producer on it

Wish this is one was 6 minutes long instead of “euphoria”, its so good

I just like stuff like "you must be a terrible person."

Yeah when he gets blunt it's so funny. Like when he quotes that DMX interview in Euphoria (the "I hate" bars)

Joycean footnotes for this one on Genius, just for the opening line alone.

something about antonoff co-producing this latest one is really funny

people are thinking that's because the diss record Drake did was called Taylor Made

lmao

ok I just read the Genius page for this it's absolutely bonkers l love it

He got called a rapist, pedophile, and sex trafficker and he only addressed the hiding a daughter allegations lmaoo https://t.co/FkOSvY6tZr

Brutal. Also intrigued that he zoomed out the picture and yet it still looks cropped. I wonder if there is more to see.

Putting aside the whole tabloidy aspect of this, Drake is just obviously punching out of his weight class, the sadboi social media singer going against the guy most people agree is the best rapper of his generation. It's like if "My Prerogative"-era Bobby Brown tried to take out Cool J.

J Cole absolutely had the right idea to gracefully bow out and you have to respect the decision

drake is doing us all a service tbh 🫡

Oh my god the new one. Jesus Christ

Kendrick dropped a hydrogen bomb on a coughing baby with this one. How on earth is drake even supposed to respond to this

He tried and failed - only tried to deny the stuff about a daughter and ignored the far worse allegations here

the video drake put up is very funny. like why are you conferring menacingly with a sons of anarchy extra biker dude? every impulse the guy has is embarrassing

was this one produced by john carpenter?

Listening again just now, it struck me that the "Dear baby girl" verse is vague in a way that has to be deliberate, and stops well short of making any actual father-daughter connection between the addressee and Drake. I think Kendrick could plausibly be writing not to a child of Drake's, but to a child of one of the people around Drake who is being drawn into an adult world of exploitation by her father's actions ("He don't commit to much but his music" applying just as much to clout chasers and promoters as actual superstars)

And when I say "a child" I doubt he means a specific child, although he could.

I also question the existence of literal pedophile rings (pending Diddy trial revelations) but we know that Drake likes em young, and I think Kendrick might just be using that as a springboard, to address any young Black women or girls whose family let predators and groomers come around them.

agreed. beef of this calibre in 2024 is cringe. i thought kendrick moved past all this with big steppers. he had nothing to prove, but did it anyway... and he's clearly making drake look like a fool. but this is like lebron crossing up a high schooler and then flashing on them. yeah, good move but i'd be actually impressed with some mercy and maturity.

(ultimately kendrick is right and we never have liked drake; just kinda tolerated him this whole time)

I remember he was conflicted

holy shit just listened to meet the grahams

Drake's really finding it hard because his sort of royal arrogance requires him to sound smug and unbothered and talking about how you have more money, more shooters, etc just doesn't really hit when faced with whatever this is that Kendrick is doing

What if Kendrick’s next track is just a beat for beat description of how Drake reacted during the hour or three immediately after “Meet The Grahams”

ie things only a Drake factorum could know

He'll receive a cassette tape and play it and it'll be about the breakfast he just made, Lost Highway/Cache-style.

counterpoint: kendrick lamar is short

i mean show's over, drake, you win this one.

It feels like Kendrick consulted Nardwuar for his latest Drake diss track.
