#KendrickLamar #Drake #AppleMusic - Hudba
I’m glad Kendrick doesn’t drop “consistently” as the people keep saying, because all of his albums are works of art.
They are art but work of art is pushing it. Theres no consensus on the last 2 albums from Kendrick.
@@joelfantuzzi1039Damn is undeniably a classic. Mmbs is hip hop album of the decade so far with the Forever Story
Worker of art consistently work on their craft and create to make their art better. I feel Kendrick doesn't work often enough.
They all mid
@@voiceofalabama Michelangelo took four years on the Sistine Chapel, which was considered quick. Truly great art takes time.
"Those were some harsh words" - Drake after control 🤣 🤣
The only mf that been crying since that verse. 😂😂
And thats where i think kdot lost any type of respect for drake
Facts😭😂😂
Like bruh 😂
I thought you were just joking, but saw the interview with Angie Martinez and he really said that!!!!!! LOL. So Drake’s been holding a grudge off of this
Metro: “Yo, what’s up?”
Future: “You already know”
Kendrick: “Say less”
Metro: “Bet”
😂😂😂😂
Exactly 💯💯💯💯
For Big Sean's mental health, he should stay out of this. And I'm fr a Sean fan who think he's a highly skilled MC.
Talent wise he’s capable of competing but I agree with you mentally I don’t think he can keep up.
@@murdock9916 Talent wise i think he needs to dominate his weight class first, Jid puts alot of pressure on who deserves to move up before he can even try and operate in the realm of the big 3
@@carnelpatterson4101 agreed on that. Jid or denzel would be someone more on his level to diss
@@murdock9916 I agree to an extent, but JID & Denzel aren't part of his come-up era. I feel like mc's should really only be compared to their "peers" and that, unfortunately, places him at #4 or lower rn.
His mental health? 😂😂😂😂
Drake might release a diss track but 75% of the raps will be aimed at Future
Lol he can’t say nothing to Kendrick
Hes already throwing “subs” at nav and Ross like bruh just aim it where u supposed to aim it. And stop being so subliminal say it with ur chest
Drake ain’t gunna write $hit though so he already lost
@@User2637dsk where?
@@User2637dsk Why NAV, he ain't did Drake nothing unless he throwing shots at the whole X❤O 😂 which includes The Weeknd too...my G the gonna bury Drake
Drake saw this coming… this is why he aligned himself with Cole so he wouldn’t have to battle Kenny alone lol
Yeah, it seemed like a chess move by Drake, along being that they're actually cool with eachother, he had a price to pay with it as well, acknowledging J. Cole is a better rapper was the only way to align himself with him to this level it seems.
I wish we could confirm but definitely feel the same.
Drake and Cole been showing love for years lmao you’re living in your own world
Exactly
Facts because he just glazed him on stage after Kenny dissed them
“Okay, let’s get it up, it’s time for him to prove that he’s a problem” the tone towards J.Cole is still respect. He’s acknowledging that he’s ready to contend and should.
First person I see to recognize the same. I feel that way too.
big daddy kane said in his inteview that cole is a "problem" i think kendrick is referencing that...
@@shubhdangwal4190 that’s a crazy connection but he wouldn’t say it unless if it applied to somebody and it ain’t drake. He layers things too
@StayBlessed47 totally agree ... I dont see how all these so called podders and reaction guys are all missing that line. This is the first time I'm hearing anyone mentioning it. That line is clearly directed at Cole. "Lets see how good you really are". K ready for this
@@donlanky6388 plenty of people saying it. Also plenty of people saying he might be talking about himself. Gone for a while, not into this type of rap in his recent albums, but he now has to remind the community he is a problem type attitude.
Kendrick picked the perfect feature, delivered the perfect verse and a near flawless moment. It’ll be tough for a response record to be harder than “Like That” in my opinion.
😆😆🤣🤣🤣🤣 ya kdot fan the biggest goofies
He dissed on a song that’s going to be club hit, just like how drake does..
That verse was weak! To many Kendrick pony riders.
@@donjuan591in those 13 seconds a good 6 bars had quadruple entendres , but okay my boy 🤦🏾♂️
@@donjuan591stfu that verse is better than Drakes entire catalogue
It’s crazy how they think J Cole hasn’t been throwing subliminals too. The guy “What’s the Dirt” made a video about Kendrick vs Cole. It really opened my eyes
That was reaching at its finest. “Niggas too thirsty to put me in beef” couldn’t have made it any clearer.
bro everybody STEPPERS, well, fuck it, then everybody breakfast is crazy to miss
These guys don't sound like they actually listen to J. Cole. J. Cole, Mr. Subliminal, done dissed K-Dot in songs wayyy more than Drake.
@@Grandson37 exactly
@@BigTimSBG fax
Whats crazy is King Kunta came out before Meek exposed Drake for having a ghostwriter
Loll you lying
Clearly you don't do your research
@@coddy_macc7240he’s right actually
@@coddy_macc7240 TPAB came out in March of 2015, while Meeks tweet about ghostwriting didn't come until July 21 4 months later. Incidentally the music video for King Kunta dropped 3 days later on the 24th.
“I dont want you mmmfs sittin in my throne again” always knew he was talking about Drake lol
So that being said Drake pick and choose is battles
"F*ck the Big 3, it's only Big ME" how gon Drake and Cole respond to that without turning on each other, unless one of them agrees to take the number 2 spot 🤷♂🤷♂
They kinda did that on 1st person shooter. No conflict there. It's ok for then to both think they're the best
Did you not listen to first person shooter?
Cole literally said it twice he is the 1
Numero Uno
@@user-yn6tp2mc1pto me cole saying he number 1 on Drakes record comes off as Drake letting his lil bro hold the unplugged controller. Drake ALLOWED cole to say most likely thinkin he is not equal to Cole.
@@Ekim2F94 You like really believe that? If so, 😂😂😂😂
I think that both Drake and Kendrick identifying with Michael Jackson and Prince are quite interesting. Michael was a bigger artist and pretty much dropped consistently, like Drake, where as Prince cared more about artistry and only put out music when he felt like it, like Kendrick.
I don't think you know what you're talking about.
MJ dropped about 10 studio albums. Prince had 35+ studio albums (not including compilation albums of older songs) Prince was label hoping for minute. MJ was under contract and recorded recycled old music, at the end, when he was getting out from under Sony Records. Prince was always dropping records. MJ didn't need to because he was sitting back collecting royalties from the Beatles songs/masters he was holding on to. You had it backwards.
@@TubeWatcherYour comment has fewer likes, but it’s more accurate-the way of the world, I suppose.
@@TubeWatcher accurate, but I get dude's point of MJ being bigger commercially and more renown while Prince was the recluse/maverick. MJ in studio was genius, engineers and producers attest to it. Prince played multiple instruments and produced. That's probably what he meant. Imho the rappers don't compare to these two Pop legends. Drake is more pop now, K. Dot is still pure rap.
Prince still has music in a vault that is unreleased. Prince was and always will be the greatest of all time to me. As far as this competition I want to see them all go at it verbally.
I guess, but I took him at his actual words, I don't pretend to know what he thinks or meant. Sometimes people think what they want to think. Prince was ridiculous with the album releases. He had a studio album almost every year from 1978 to 2010 with two in 96, two in 99, two in 2003 and two in 2004. Not including the projects that were not studio albums. The man could write albums on top of albums. @@dominionsilas2227
2 are rappers, one is a pop artist
Yes and 2 are real lyricists
Doja cat is involved in this?
Perfectly EXPLAINED IYKYK LOLOL
I consider that as a compliment to be called a pop artist tho. But Drake ain't on Cole and Kendrick's level lyrically and artistically but Drake is needed in the music business. He broke barriers for many genres to be global.
🎯👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
Little did they know...
11:49 it actually wasn’t behind the scenes. Drake did an interview where he kinda said the control verse was just a moment in hip hop and nothing memorable. Basically underplayed the verse and called Kendrick soft for not standing on what he said after so there is evidence he was sensitive about it
Thank you and the football player Wiley said that he has the audio still where Drake went off on Kendrick…so let’s gooo
A moment in hip hop that is still remembered and talked about 11 yrs later. The same will happen with the Like That verse.
L for Drake he responded with a speech 😂
This is why kdot fans the worse. Ya just say anything for clout. You master taught you well
@@fas0288😢
W for Drake.. His name is being mentioned x10 more and he’s not featured on the song.
@@kickz4theculture997for wrong reasons
He does that lil speech after every concert…
That "kendrick takes 5 years" narrative has to die. Literally happend 1 time and before that he released 7 projects from 2011-2018. Then the WHOLE TDE took 5 years off lol and theyve all comeback stronger and with quality.
Similar how they did Nas back in the day
Their just mad he didn’t drop a Good Kid Maad City II coming off the five year hiatus.
Exactly they try to play with Kendrick because he's from the West Coast 🎯✅
Both Drake and Cole need to respond separately. I just wish Cole keep it friendly cuz I still want the Kdot collab album 😅
Don’t think it would matter bro
Nobody want that anymore
that album in the same vault with the cure for cancer.
@@86Sentra, I want it! Kendrick and Cole are my favorite rappers.
It ain’t happen bc cole would get smoked on every song & got in his feelings now he drake bff 🤣
Like That is Los Angeles all the way and perfect for Kendrick to do this diss. The Everlasting Bass and Eazy-Duz-It sample were PERFECT.
Hunnid percent.
It's a battle cry king, the way Metro put it together 👌🏿
Thank you Kendrick …. Future .. metro for this energy
That "Like That" Kendrick's verse is like the roman empire now. I think about it at least twice a day now lol
King kendrick lamar
Drake don’t want no smoke. He been tryna squash the beef with Kendrick for 10 years now.
Unsuccessfully 😂
Rap on Fire right now, I just love when emcees throw blows at each other. Just keep it rap on wax no real beef
We need timestamps
You only get them with Mob Radio!! 🎉🎉🎉
Bro it’s only 30 minute video all you had to do was wait 8 minutes. Tik tok kids era attention span is crazy.
I really appreciate Nadeska. She is so needed
sean isn’t on the same level, that’s a wild statement
Pusha t was bullying drake😂😂😂
Facts drake STILL HASN'T but they want him to respond to Kendrick 🤣😂
& rightly so!
Cole and Kendrick been exchanging sneak disses for years lol, everybody is in the ring rn it's wrestlemania baby 😂
😂😂😂😂 love it!!!! Can you smellllllllllllll…….. 🤣🤣🤣
Think for your self and stop having people thinking for you.
Drake basically gotta drop the rumored Pusha T diss and live with the consequences. Clear the hard drives and do a clean wipe. Kendrick even dissed Drake on the Beyonce America has a problem remix. The fight he puts up is more important than winning at this point.
“Even AI has to practice cloning Kendrick” around the time Drake AI was dropping
"His carrer din't come whith no life insurences, hope his Day one fans got some facs on him
So Kendrick keeps throwing shots at Drake and Drake doesn’t respond seems like a one sided beef lol Kendrick corny af
@@Swishemthru Drake throws shots back, im not sure what you on about. He's just afraid of being direct, which Kendrick isn't
I'm with you. He gotta just drop the record.. I know it exists don't ask how
Drake and Kendrick not even in the same weight class, I don't know how people can think or believe that. Kendrick and Cole is the same weight class, theyvare really the only battle we want and need to see. When Drake can fight his own battle and not bring people into it and really put pen to paper for these response then we will talk and include him in this conversation
You’re nobody to dictate that lol, if Kendrick didn’t feel drake was worthy he would’ve never dissed him, this whole metro album is an attempt at drake & it’s taken multiple guys. Quit the drake hate just cause it’s popular cause ik for a fact you bump him
@@cristianalexander8861It's crazy. Putting out an album just to feature all artists who kinda got beef with another artist?
They end up giving him more clout and want his spot. None of these guys (even combined) can ever overtake Drake.
@@cristianalexander8861 nobody bumps drake except white children its the only way to be a pop star..niccas aint riding to drake 😂
@@Capro-B EXACTLY. Idk what these other guys (haters) are talking about like it’s not in-front of their eyes
@@cristianalexander8861how can a real person talk like that
They didn't even talk about the whole album, just the Kendrick verse. Not the rest of the song, not the other songs, not the rest of the features, not the production, nothing. I feel like it's kinda overshadowing it, not saying the verse ain't good, but once again Kendrick is taking the spotlight from everything and everyone. So it's kind of a good and bad thing.
This only happens because he’s mentioning Drake… Sad..
I've watched almost 100 different reaction videos of people listening to the song, and a majority of the people give props to Future, Metro, & Kendrick for all doing their thing on the track and making it solid the whole way through.
So even though the convo surrounding it is focusing on Kendrick, I don't feel like he's necessarily taking the spotlight- it's just hard to have any kind of in-depth convo about future's verse and saying "DAMN Metro snapped on this beat with those samples!"
@@kickz4theculture997What the f*** are you talking about??? Kendrick overshadow everyone when he drops.
@@kickz4theculture997 Kanye, Pusha, Pharell, Metro, Future, Travis, The weekend, now kdot. Damn It's a whole gang against Drake 😭😂
They literally read Future lyrics and discussed how the song in general is mostly about Drake
Imagine they drop a song called “Third Person Shooter” dissing Kdot.
And he slaughters them both… 😂
Waited for this!
Nas is the best MC ever
Black Thought has something to say
Great Eminem take Nadeska 6:15
ebro basically just dissed drake lol " we know Kendrick aint gonna call the big homie to bail him out"
it was more than cole’s lines on FPS that made him respond tbh. I think it was also the evil ways feature.
This video aged well
Big Sean DOES NOT belong in this 😂 that hook in his new song is cringe af lol
“puuuu puuuu aye”😭
He ruined it with the hook it's a shame because everything else is good
Fr i couldn't finish it
Thank you ! Lol ruined it for me
As a big Sean fan myself I agree. The freestyle was way better
Majority of Drakes fans are not actual hip hop fans. Theyre Drake fans which is different. Its kinda the dame problem with Eminems fanbase.
Yes, but Em’s base is closer to the hip hop fanbase than Drake’s. Drake is an R&B artist too.
Low key same for Kendrick. I went to his Big Steppers tour and was in disbelief at the demographic of the audience to say the least
@Original_jataro his demo is a VERY interesting one for sure. Even 10 years ago in college it was a bunch of UT kids fawning over him
Drake and Eminem are in my top 5 but I also have biggie Nas and Jay z in there I also listen to mobb deep jadakiss kool g rap big pun Scarface Wu tang Griselda OutKast fabolous and ugk
Y’all missed the “scraping the plate” bar from Coke on First Person Shooter. That was a direct shot at Kenny from J Cole
i dont get it
No it's not. He said Steppers before Mr morale album came out. Go listen to the music and stop watching videos that think for you think for yourself.
@@patrickramsay2631it was after the album came out. It was a diss
@@young2486it wasn’t go back and review timelines and comeback
@@patrickramsay2631what are you talkin about? Mr mid came out in 2022. For all the dogs came out in 2023.
At this point please make a whole separate video where y’all discuss and breakdown the sneak disses/rap beefs and a separate video discussing albums and production and verses on the tracks.
I think Pluto put his name in the conversation.. not lyrically… but hits and song making 🦅🦅
I agree with Nadeska on the Eminem critique
Pusha T had a line on his (2022) song "Dreaming Of The Past" where he says 'you see the Top 5, I see the Top Me' - if Kendrick's Big 3 line is an allusion to Push's line (easily could have just been coincidence), that would mean he in some way shouts out E40, Andre 3K, Eminem/Melly Mel, AND Pusha T (all great MC's) in a verse called 'Like that" where thematically Future and Kendrick are saying Drake (and J. Cole) are not Like that. This is similar to First person Shooter where only two of the Big 3 are present- so it's grouping by exclusion. Pure diabolical. So many layers to this song. Side-note, if Cole wants to ever be considered the GOAT- he has to go after Drake and Kendrick which makes it strategically and lyrically difficult.
Episodes like this is why I love this show lmao 🔥
i live for conversations like this. hip hop heads talking about hip hop and being excited about it
I don’t know I feel like Joyner Lucas has to be rated amongst the so called big 3. If Big Sean is considered Joyner should be as well. Dude is mad underrated, amazing story teller and his catalogue is brilliant.
Drizzy acting like he actually got bullied on Degrassi lol also if you go back and listen to the last few Cole tracks you can pretty easily pick up the subliminals he was dropping on Kdot. Plus, its kinda been out there that Cole has felt a little shiesty about being considered number three, especially behind Kdot.
This is my first time being here, and seeing Nadeska here, made me very happy, definitely a great example for my lil' siblings.
Loved that wwe reference Ebro😂
This is a good platform that actually knows how to talk about hiphop
Dapper Dan x Gap hoodie 🔥🔥🔥😤😤😤
Sean just cleared some of the noise with that 🔥 Tiny Desk… he certainly reminded us he’s a part of the convo!!
Srry but he’s not 😭 back in the day probably tho
I wasn't reminded of anything unfortunately
Drake was openly soft about the control verse he had interviews about it. That's why Kendrick came back at him
If Cole spit a response at Dreamville Festival next month this will really get crazy 🔥🔥🔥
This week.
😂😂😂😂😂
Big Sean on the 4 headed monster is astronomically flabbergasting
Yes deska. Ya whole point 🙏🏾
Yall the only ones who made this whole beef make sense!!
If the Ghost writing rumors are true. In my opinion, this eliminates Drake.
It's true he admitted it but lied too. He said he only got help on a couple of verses but you have to multiply that by 20😂
I know a famous South African song that's verbatim on More life album 🇿🇦
Dam I ain’t seen Nadeska since Everyday Struggle. Glad to see she still doing her thing.
Dope Content As Always
This is a Kendrick and Cole battle. This is not a Drake Friendly battle. Kendrick and Cole levels above and are the best rappers.
Yall are forgetting the steppers line by Cole in 1st person shooter
Exactly ppl are just skipping over that
11:35 good conversation guys! but i think ya need me on the show!
Even drakes ghost writers don’t want to go at k dot 😂
Bro Jcole has been begging somone to try him on those Might Delete Later volumes so he may be ready to shoot back
yall need to let the girl finish her sentences more.
btw, kendrick and cole been beefing subliminally for a few years now
Facts they had a L take on that
💯💯💯
Thank you for really looking talking about Future bars. Those bars are just as tough. The whole album is a masterpiece. Kendrick was the cherry on top. Metro boom beats are so great on this.
Rigid or loose we cant decide. Unnecessary pressure for something that comes naturally
6:30 thanks so much for this comment Nadeska, we all think the same, eminem is so bothered trying to be technical that he became boring.
J cole did say “if everybody steppers than everybody breakfast” which could be a shot at Kendrick
Could? Lol
Lol anytime I see Nadeska on a panel I'm gonna get Everyday Struggle vibes. Glad somebody was having the discussion we wanted to hear though.
Love the WWE reference 😂😂😂
Shout out Tyla 🫶🏻🇿🇦🫡
What if Kendrick has another verse on the next album?
I didn’t think of that. All jokes aside they could have a cold feature on the next album.
KDOT on his Kratos arc and im absolutely here for it!
Big Sean in big 3 conversations in 2024 is CRAZY
absolutely nuts🤣🤣🤣
I’d rather quality over quantity with music…
How’s Nadeska a fan of JCOLE and didn’t mention the subs he’s been sending at Kendrick throughout the years lol😂
grammys, pulitzers, classic albums...
the west and south are gonna form the great avengers
Drake diss Kendrick in first person shooter too .. he name all the dogs in the video women names .. and in the verse he said “if your pug was up for sale I buy the whole thang !! “ also “ will they every give me flowers” “ they don’t want to talk about it cause it’s a sore spot” “I use a Grammy as a door stop” he said 1 away from mike like he is the GOAT and told him to beat it !
😂😂😂😂
@@user-vg9kv3xd8o you laughing .. but I bet Kendrick know what I’m talkin about .. and that’s why he addressed it

Kendrick just responded, Drake don’t want no smoke. He’s just gonna keep on sneak dissin KDot to death lol. Check out Drake last album Away From Home. Clearly his diss Kendrick on that Michelle Obama verse. And when Drake did that interview with Rap Radar couple yrs ago. He diss Kendrick again lol.
