kdot got the whole world crip walking! No matter what anybody says... the world loves a good ass beat!
Diddy is the real winner! I bet he is wanting them to drop more and more to keep the heat off him.

I knew this would boil over into some street shit. Beef needs to end now. These Kendrick fans are crazy. Vandalizing stores, etc.
I wouldn't be surprised if it was some wild Kendrick fan who shot Drakes security either.
Looking at the Reeeeee thread on this, they are fucking cult-ish. Absolute insanity.

So did it end? Or still ongoing?

I agree that the above is too far.
The shooter being a Kendrick fan needs confirmation first.
Why bring a website that no one likes into this topic of conversation as proof of anything? They are who they are and Gaf is Gaf. How many years must people here care and be upset over the purple guys? 5 years? 10 years? 20?
I don’t know how people aren’t tired at this point from looking over in their direction. It sort of gives merit to the fact that a lot of people online just go around looking for stuff to piss themselves off.

Unconfirmed. If nothing happens after 3 weeks I consider this over. Messy, but over.

Last week someone in Toronto shot one of The Weeknd's security guards. This is probably related to that, either payback because Drake's crew was involved or just someone trying to rob them both (Drake has had armed robberies at his place before).The Rap Beef might be getting real

Kendrick isn't putting out international hits on people. It's possible it's just a sympathizer taking shit too seriously but I doubt it.

Finally someone with sense and not influenced by social media hot takes. This was a clear body for drake. I don't know how anyone can say Kendrick won, with a bunch of fake ass info about some made up girl lol. His diss tracks were pure lies.
People are only saying he won because he... responded quickly.
If we're being real, he didnt even respond.
He didn't respond to any of the allegations drake made.
Drake dropped Family Matters, and then kendrick ignored, it and called him a pedo. Without actually responding to the shit drake said in his track. People thought it was funny and delcared him the winner.
Bar for bar, drake cooked him.
Factual bars, better songs, better beats, no gimmicks.
Drake won. Enough of the bullshit.

No one can say ‘factual bars’ when neither side has posted any actual receipts other than rapping ‘you did this’ and the other person saying ‘nuh uh, no I didn’t I planned it all!’ in a poetic way.

if it makes you feel better, we will go against public opinion and say that Drake won…so now what?
There’s still a gigantic pile of trash in front of us, and people are digging through that trash finding more and more evidence and anti-evidence on both sides. Why does Kendrick’s fiance’s brother follow and rooted for Kendrick during this battle(on twitter) when Drake claims Kendrick is beating his sister? Why does Drake keep finding himself over the years in these situations where he is speaking with random girls who are strangers to him, between the ages of 13 and 17?
It is contradictory stuff like this that makes everything so messy. It’s why people online are either ignoring it or going down deep rabbit holes to try and defend their side.

Those same guys said MGK beat Eminem.
Kendrick and Ems bars go over their head for some reason.
Kendrick didn't ignore family matters but the general public largely did after MTG and especially NLU.
Winning rap beefs aren't about defending yourself with lines about being too famous to do sick things which the vast majority of people see the logical fallacy in.
I hope that drake actually comes hard with another track so we can get the 5 Kenny has in stock instead of leaving us on the whimper of TH6
Edit: so it's looking like future is about to make this messy again with a mixtape on the 10th lol
Megan is also dropping that same day. The breakfast club did say Kendrick is about to feature with someone but I'm doubtful

No one thinks Drake won outside of you and this guy you’re posting. Big surprise you found this on /r/Drizzy, and then trying to say he’s unbiased lol.
Kendrick has a summer hit that's got everyone singing along to calling Drake a paedophile. Drake came back with, "Hey man I knew you were gonna call me a sex trafficker and a paedophile, the guys that set that shit up and fed you the information are clowns, also, that guy was me, 4D chess, I'm a clown and I got the world calling me a paedophile on a massive hit, you lose bro."

I also think Drake win this by a mile.
Kendrick rehashed old twitter talking points mixed with made up shit and the personal hatred was so palpable.
Drake was a lot more to the point, the diss actually had rhythm and the song was just better, also the disses were more shocking because it was stuff we never heard off.

Yeah I was mainly talking about Family Matters, that shit was fire.
Kendrick can go ahead and enjoy the current public opinion which is pure garbage, it was like that for Jay Z too when Nas destroyed him back in the day.. the masses are a bunch of idiots.
History will favor Drake on this.

If you think rap battles are just supposed to be TMZ scoops, then I question if you are really a hip hop fan.
Like yes, if true, the revelation that Kendrick hit his wife would be more of an upset to Kendrick's public image, but "everyone already knew Drake was a predator, sex, criminal, culture vulture, deadbeat dad who lives his life doing a fake accent" isn't really the point for Drake that you think it is.
If anything, it's why Kendrick won, he's saying things that everyone already believes. It resonates and gives voice to stuff a lot of people have been saying for years.
Drake had one good shot in this battle, Family Matters, where he tried to imitate Kendrick with some multi-part song and some of the most proficient rapping he's done for a while, and a slick produced video. And that might have tipped the scales but we all know what happened next.
Kendrick deflected it with a devastating, slow burner that dropped thirty minutes later, and then he did what no one expected and out-did Drake at his own game, by putting out a summer anthem dance-rap banger. And that's a masterful play.

I didn't say that everyone already knew Drake was any of these things, the twitter mob and react videos you watched probably did.
I said Kendrick rehashed some twitter talking points mixed with made up shit.
There are many twitter talking points about celebrities, so what? 99% of it is nonsense.

Without a response fans are turning on Kendrick. Even Millie Bobbie brown and Bella Harris coming after kendrick fans.
Drake got this for now.

Again, you seem really hung up with this idea that there needs to be some "new" dirt, and not stuff that people have been saying for years and is widely believed by at least a good chunk of the audience.
That doesn't work, especially if you have no receipts. It's really the opposite. Drake isn't getting cooked because he might have abandoned two kids and not one, he's getting cooked because he's a Canadian child actor who puts on a fake American black accent and has a long established pattern of being creepy to underage and barely legal girls.

Nothing but FACTS.
Said it much more eloquently than I ever could.
But his fans will just deny and ignore, that's what they do.
Place him on the biggest pedestal, he can do no wrong, doesn't have to answer to anything. Lol.
As time passes, over the years, when the hype of that little song dies down, and people actually LISTEN to each song... Drake will be declared the winner. I put money on it.

Megan's "Hiss" dis track for a few months back was both a banger and genius... "You're not mad at me, you're mad at Megan's Law"... That ETHER'D Nicki Minaj...
Drake hasn't put anything THAT clever out in years! Certainly not recently. Kendrick is on a whole other level with being a battle rapper and now more mainstream but still lyrically dominant.

Drake's never going to win a battle on bars alone, that's not what he's good at and there are really only a handful of people out there who can write like Kendrick. Maybe if J. Cole stayed in this.
What Drake can do is write a song that gets the whole club moving and singing along, and there's a real power in that. That's how he won against Meek Mill.
But instead he tried to meet Kendrick on his turf, Family Matters was 100% him trying to do a Kendrick-style track with all the beat switches and flow changes. And it was better than most people give Drake credit for but still fell short of Euphoria.
And then Kendrick flipped it on him by putting out Not Like Us, which is just this sing-along anthem that is obviously gonna go to #1.

People only remember the finishing blows. People remember Ether, they remember Back to Back, they remember Story of Adidon, they remember No Vaseline.
And they'll remember Not Like Us. That's it, man. The rest of the drama no one is gonna sit there and go over, let alone reevaluate.
