the gap between NLU and drake’s biggest is bigger than the gap between NLU and kendrick 2nd biggest

The beef made Kendrick reach his commercial peak and NLU is and will always be the biggest hit of his career, which isn't too good for him because everyone associates the song with Drake, just like everyone remembers his SB performance for being centered around the beef and Drake

I will remember him for more than the beef, but the general public will see this as the defining moment for him. Won't be a great thing for him in the long run even though it might be sweet right now

Lmaooo the gif

Of course winning the biggest beef ever in rap will be remembered and he will be remembered as the victor. It should never been forgotten and it never will.

Just like Nas Jay Pac and Big, their beefs are a consistent topic but they are much larger than the beef.

The gap between Drake and Kendrick's July Spotify streams is an entire Future or Tyler the Creator sized career

Y’all tryna belittle and diminish the significance of the outcome of this beef because your guy lost is insane. This was gonna be be the defining moment of either guy’s career if they won, regardless of which one it was (Cole included if he never bowed out).

Especially Drake, he never would have let us forget if he beat Kendrick in a battle, that nigga would’ve referenced it on every single studio album for the rest of his career. It would’ve unequivocally crowned him as the greatest of all time, in my opinion

I feel like this is one of those things ppl say because they want it to be true rather than how it actually is. like, yeah it’s going to be the kendrick moment when it’s all said and done, a la kanye w/ the taylor stuff into MBDTF

ppl saying this ignore how this is drake’s defining moment too. it’s just far worse for him because he was the butt of the joke

This battle was literally the decider on who the greatest rapper of this generation is

Drake will always be remembered for losing it
Kendrick will always be remembered for winning it

And Drake is still the greatest rapper of his generation because it takes more than one battle to do that

Hov or Nas the biggest?

Greatest rapper of his generation according to who

He was never that. Kendrick the one competing with Nas and Jays.

Nas being a better rapper than Drake isn’t some unpopular take

You’re right. It takes a legendary career on top of whoever won this beef. Both guys have the first part, but only one of them won.

Both have classic albums
Both have worldwide hit records
Both have Diamond songs
Both have millions upon millions of sales
Both have classic verses
Both have numerous sold out tours
Both inspired the next generation in various ways
Only one of them won the battle last year

We talking greatest

You think avatar the greatest movie of all time?

He genuinely might

Hov and Nas careers aren’t comparable in any way imaginable though, so the beef wasn’t enough to give him that title. Kendrick and Drake have reached similar heights, regardless of if y’all want to admit it or not

Example: if Cole engaged and somehow came out on top, it wouldn’t have been enough alone to give him an argument in greatest of all time talks. Greatest of his generation, possibly, but his career hasn’t reached anywhere near Kendrick or Drake’s

Damn 2x diamond

The chart isn't everything

My bad I meant Humble... but my point stands

Sales... I have also mentioned, but you skipped that one

Ah yes
Leaving out the countless amount of cultural relevance Drake accrued over Kendrick

Saying Kendrick Lamar wasn’t culturally relevant before 2024 might be the dumbest thing anyone’s ever said on this website

Artist of the Decade is not a Kendrick height

You know, the ones number and not opinions back up

That's..... not what I said

The beef being Kendrick's cultural peak will be the reason he hasn't had the same career as Drake
