      @@thepoweraboveall because there’s also no proof of the domestic abuse. The only time Kendrick has ever been associated with alleged domestic abuse, ever, was in a Vegas incident. And Whitney wasn’t even the one who was allegedly beat in that case, it was some random white woman. And there’s still nothing suggesting he did beat anyone aside from a single staff member that even tabloids didn’t find too credible and evidence that he was in the building. When people are revealed as domestic abusers, there tends to be a visible track record of them being aggressive or there being mysterious bruises on their spouse, stuff like that. Kendrick doesn’t have any of that. I mean hell, Drake’s wording made it clear he doesn’t even know if it’s true. “IF you hit her….”

      Crazy thing about that deal is that it's worth "as much as $400m", which means the 400 was a hard cap on his potential earnings. Hence why K Dot asked what his percentages were. I guarantee they duped Aubrey into putting his percentages on sliding scale. 😂 No way he sees 400 off that now.

    The planning and execution on this was perfect. Kendrick found a lot of dirt on Drake, had a mole to feed him info on Family Matters, he knew Drake's plans for the beef, and went in prepared. The timing and precision of these releases was surgical, and he still kept it surface-level at first and fired several warning shots. 6.16 was like an emotional and spiritual perparation for what he knew was going to be a brutal, ugly war that he felt conflicted about, but both FM and MTG were ready to drop at that point. He was waiting for Drake's move, the arrogant celebrity boy took it there, and just as promised KDot ripped his fake persona apart. Drake was given more chances than he deserved and he ignored all of them

    I don’t think Drake’s career is “over” but his reputation is permanently damaged for sure. He still has Stans who won’t admit that he was bodied by Kendrick and a lot of Drake’s fans don’t really listen to hip-hop so they probably didn’t follow the back and forth of the diss tracks.
    It seems like day by day the accusations Drake threw at Kendrick are falling apart as well; while the riddler is on twitter showing that Drake didn’t “set up” fake intel for Kendrick, pretty certain Drake is hiding a daughter too. He should def be forced to take a paternity test because he denied having a son at first too.
    The idea that Drake fed Kendrick damaging information without having any proof or receipts whatsoever, it’s laughable and the fact that Kendrick had Meet the Grahams ready as a response to Family Matters makes it pretty clear that OVO had/has a leaker who at the very least, let Kendrick know the angle Drake was coming from in his track, allowing Kendrick to drop Meet the Grahams immediately after with lines directly addressing what Drake said.

    I think you missed about like that, Your best work a "Lytpack"
    For all his dogs getting buried
    Theres a K with all those 9s
    He gonna see pet semetery
    I mean he really went in on drake on like that, everyone paid attention to the big 3 thing because Jcole responded first. I think it shows that kendrick WANTED this to happen, he has been waiting a decade for this moment and didnt waste his chance.

    Drake rapped his ass off sadly it was a battle he was never gonna win.

      His rapping was weak bro. "You rapping like trying to get slaves free" drake exposed his limited skills even more on heart part 6, listen to some actual lyricist during battles, drake was awful

      ​@@77_ACE.I've heard worse. Didn't hold a candle to KDot's lyrics anyways (even with all the ghostwriters). It was inconsistent: for every half decent bar, he'd say something corny or cliche.

      ​@@ebnest123 nah, he's right. this battle gave us the best rapping that Drake has ever done. i don't think i've heard Drake rap the way he rapped ever. but this being his best saying something considering Kendrick's talent w/ his pen.

    Aubrey never stood a chance. Kendrick can write lyrics for fuck sake.

    Drake could have a longer career if he could simply accept that he was never going to be the king.

    Thank you so much for this video, super informative!
    Short question for accessibility: Could you write the lyrics on screen when you play the snippet of the song? I don't have a good ear for rap lyrics as a non-English native speaker. Thank you! 🙏

    Nobody wants to hear j.cole say he's #1. Backed down from competition regardless of situation. Hip-hop at its absolute core, is competition.
