Bruh that fucking beat is a PROBLEM!

I didn't think it got any better, but Ye actually put some sauce on it......

Drake doesn't have the bars or production to match this fucking clinic of a damn diss song.
Ye always remixing somebody else artwork/beats. He did the same to chop. If somebody did that to him he’d throw a hissy fit. I hate when he do that shit TBH

Like that is just 1,000,000xs better than anything else out now in every way so Kenny don’t gotta do SHIT. Especially as long as that shit sit on the top as #1 on the charts. Niggas diss song is #1 lmao

Fam.... cmon now stop it.
He has the access, it chose to us AI Tupac and Snoop on the weakest most trash fake dr Dre la beat of all time. I literally the whole track was AI including Aubrey’s weak ass verse yo until like yesterday or the day before. It is so fuckin trash and them “push ups” wasn’t even close to like that and was also just mid for mid sakes. He can’t reproduce another “B2B” at least not with Kenny, or he hasn’t

Kendrick fans using Takeover and ether to litigate 29 days for Dot to respond

They against AI or any mems or social media

So basically if Drake doesn't use a #2 pencil on a legal pad and sit on the floor of the studio to craft his response and record in ONE take with no punch ins on reel to reel?

he a whole b*tch.

That’s not true at all. Kendrick said EVERYBODY’s name out the gate on control. It couldn’t be more clear what his intentions were on control. That was 10 yrs ago
Control wasnt a diss. And Mac Miller, Pusha, Meek, Krit, etc recognized it for what it was, a challenge to his homies to stop bullshitting. Aubrey felt a way. They've been going back and forth since.

All jokes aside this is nasty!!

there shouldn't be ANY jokes at all

this is SERIOUS.

Imagine if Drake actually took this and did it?

LIVE with an actual BAND and directed it at Kendrick?

Would we hear all this AI complaining?

Or be too busy actually dancing for once and begging him to do an entire album like this and go on tour with the roots?

Everything true except the back and forth part…

Drake brings Kendrick on tour.
Drake and Kendrick exchange verses on projects.

2013
  • Kendrick drops CONTROL
  • No one mentioned on CONTROL feels a way except Drake
  • Drake goes on HOT 97 and essentially says Control was a bitch move despite Angie Martinez trying to explain to him that it wasn't a diss. He then said in multiple interviews that the verse wasn't inspiring, it wasn't impressive, it was for clout, and that no one will remember it.
  • Drake goes on ESPN, and according to Marcellus Wiley, he went off on Kendrick on air, dissing him publicly. According to Wiley, Drake's people had that portion of the interview removed from the air.
Drake drops THE LANGUAGE and takes, what many people considered, some stabs at Kendrick
I don't know why they've been lying but your shit is not that inspiring
Bank account statements just look like I'm ready for early retirement
Fuck any nigga that's talkin' that shit just to get a reaction
Fuck going platinum, I looked at my wrist and it's already platinum
I am the kid with the motor mouth
I am the one that you should worry about

Kendrick spits the BET CYPHER verse taking shots at Drake
You either corny or an opportunist
I let you eat, now go back to church and steal crackers at communion
What are we doing? I'm 'bout to crack the da Vinci Code
Yeah, and nothing been the same since they dropped "Control"
And tucked a sensitive rapper back in his pajama clothes
Haha, joke's on you
High-five, {*smack!*}, I'm bulletproof
Your shots'll never penetrate
Pin a tail on the donkey, boy, you been a fake

Drake pops back with SHIT REMIX
Took niggas out the hood like I'm from there
So you know it's all good when I come there
I hear you talk about your city like you run that
And I brought my tour to your city, you my son there, nigga

  • A few days after the VIBE MAGAZINE article drops and Drake discusses how CONTROL messed up his album rollout.

2014
  • Macklemore beats Kendridk for the Grammy and posts the screenshot of the text he sent Kendrick saying he thought GKMC should've won. Drake responded in Rolling Stone, "To name just Kendrick? That shit made me feel funny."

Kendrick drops bars about Drake on Jay Rock's song, "Pay For It"
I tell 'em all to hail King Kendrick, resurrectin' my vengeance
Been dissectin' your motormouth, 'til I break down the engine
This ain't no warnin' shot, this a relevant henchman
See my opponent, then — cease your existence
Endin' our friendship, baby, I'd rather die alone
Your diaphragm is dietary, what you eatin' on?

  • Kendrick gets asked on The Breakfast Club and Shade45 if he and Drake would have an all-out battle and he says he couldn't see it since they're two different types of artists motivated by different things -- lots of people heard that as shade.

2015
Drake drops IF YOU'RE READING THIS IT'S TOO LATE and takes shots at Kendrick on USED TO
They gon’ say your name on them airwaves
They gon’ hit you up right after like it’s only rap.
And 6PM IN NEW YORK with a "Money Trees" reference

Kendrick drops TO PIMP A BUTTERFLY with obvious and not-so-obvious jabs at Drake on King Kunta:
I can dig rappin', but a rapper with a ghostwriter?
What the fuck happened? (Oh no!)
I swore I wouldn't tell, but most of y'all sharing bars
Like you got the bottom bunk in a two-man cell (A two-man cell)

  • Of note, this was released before Meek went on his tirade about Drake having ghostwriters (TPAB dropped in March, Meek crashed out in July).

A lot of people (myself included) also thought YOU AINT GOTTA LIE had shots at Drake as well
I could spot you a mile away
I could see your insecurities written all on your face
So predictable your words, I know what you gonna say
Who you foolin'? Oh, you assuming you can just come and hang
With the homies but your level of realness ain't the same
Circus acts only attract those that entertain
Small talk, we know that it's all talk
We live in the Laugh Factory every time they mention your name
And the world don't respect you
And the culture don't accept you
But you think it's all love
And the girls gon' neglect you once your parody is done
Reputation can't protect you if you never had one

  • If you look at both Meg's and Ross' shots at Drake, they essentially said the same things a decade later about how it's known that Drake is a poser who dickeats other sets, hoods, and tries to be cool with the hood.

Drake has more subs to Kendrick on The Game's track 100:
I would have all of your fans
If I didn't go pop and I stayed on some conscious shit

Kendrick throws shots back on Dre's album:
But still, I got enemies giving me energy
I wanna fight now
Subliminal, sending me all of this hate
I thought I was holding the mic down
A clear reference to the titles/hooks of Drake tracks from IYRTITL

And:
They liable to bury him, they nominated six to carry him
They worry him to death, but he no vegetarian
The beef is on his breath, inheriting the drama better than
A great white, nigga, this is life in my aquarium

  • The Six of course being a double entendre of Toronto having the nickname of The Six and Six being the number of pallbearers who carry caskets. The Great White line is also now a bit funnier since Ross been calling Drake "white boy."

2016
  • Things die down a bit and it even seems like Drake may have been trying to squash things by referencing "This Dick Aint Free" on VIEWS

2017
  • Drake drops MORE LIFE.
A week later, Kendrick drops a surprise track, The Heart Pt. 4, and takes shots at Drake:
My fans can't wait for me to son ya punk-ass
And crush ya whole lil' shit
I'll Big Pun ya punk-ass, you a scared lil' bitch
Tiptoein' around my name, nigga, you lame
And when I get at you, homie
Don't you just tell me you was just playin'
"Oh, I was just playin', K-Dot
C'mon, you know a nigga rock witchu, bro
"

And:
Ho, JAY-Z Hall of Fame, sit yo' punk-ass down!
(Sit yo punk-ass down)

  • A response to Drake's SUMMER SIXTEEN when he said he used to wanna be in Rocafella then he turned into Jay. Hov and Drake had a little go back and forth too.
  • Kendrick drops DAMN the following month and there are minor subs on there but nothing too scathing.

He does take shots on the Mask Off remix though in direct response to Drake's 100 subs:
Platinum, platinum, platinum
Gotta look at self and ask, "What happened?"
How y'all let a conscious nigga go commercial
While only makin' conscious albums?


2018
  • Drake congratulates Kendrick for DAMN outselling MORE LIFE.
Kendrick slaps away the olive branch though on the track with SZA:
Tell me what you gon' do to me (Do to me)
Confrontation ain't nothin' new to me (New to me)
You can bring a bullet, bring a sword, bring a morgue
But you can't bring the truth to me (Truth to me)
Fuck you and all your expectations (Expectations)
I don't even want your congratulations (Congratulations)
Of note, some folks say this wasn't a response to Drake, just a coincidence.

Drake drops immediately after:
They try to compare us, but
Like a job straight outta high school there's no you and I
I taught you everything you know, now you got student pride
A reminder that Drake put Kendrick on his first tour. The "You and I" line was masterful as well, a triple entendre. You and I regularly, U-N-I as in Uni, the shortening of university, AND U and I, two tracks from TO PIMP A BUTTERFLY.

  • Drake shares old DMs between Kendrick and himself. Some people took this as him extending an olive branch reminding folks how cool they used to be.
Others took it as Drake throwing it back in Kendrick's face that he's the one who put K.Dot on his biggest stages since Drake threw subs again on SCORPION:
Bury me and I'll be born again
I walk in godly form amongst the MORTAL MEN
Another reference to a TPAB song.

2019
  • Kendrick goes on hiatus
  • Drake, on a rare interview (Rap Radar), says he respects Kendrick (speaking of both Cole and K.Dot).

2020
  • Kendrick still on sabbatical.
  • Drake tearing the charts up.

2021
Kendrick comes back from a self imposed exile (his words -- "SIE") on a track with Baby Keem and takes what many perceived as a shot at Drake:
Smokin' on your top five tonight, tonight
Yeah, I'm smokin' on your, what's his name, tonight, tonight
Folks speculated it was in response to Drake on VIEWS: "Top five no debating... Top five, top five, top five..."

Add in folks were saying Drake slid in Keem's girl's DM which seemed to have been confirmed by Keem:
Smokin' on top fives
Stop playin', I'm that guy

Number two DM'ing my bitch
That's cool, I don't ask why

Drake responds:
Fuck debatin' who the GOAT
Bet not make this shit about the numbers all I know
Bet not make this shit about the summer all I know
Better find you someone else to hit with all that smoke, nigga
Some folks said this is about Kanye though. Could be another two birds, one stone situation though.

He also dropped FORGOT I WAS FAMOUS with Lil Uzi and took shots at Kendrick:
Fake woke, niggas fake deep
You ain't know fame before me
Gave yo' ass a lil' sneak peek, yeah
Now you gotta take a back seat
More of the "I put you on" framing and the reference to another Kendrick track, Backseat Freestyle

2022
Kendrick drops Mr. Morale and Father Time had this:
When Kanye got back with Drake, I was slightly confused
Guess I'm not mature as I think, got some healin' to do

  • Drake drops HONESTY, NEVERMIND on Kendrick's birthday. Coincidence?
  • Drake goes on stage and talks about artists who take "three, four, five years off."

2023
  • Relatively quiet

2024
  • All hell breaks loose
