It's pretty obvious what he's doing with the song lol it's the same theme as the other tracks. Execution could have been better for sure

Drake stans don't like to think too hard should just let them be tbh

I choose Peace I’m sorry

Don't let the beef end like that lol (matrix reference)

I agree that TPAB is definitely more subtle with some of the messages on their compared to Mr morale but I don't understand why that's critic bait, it just means he didn't execute it as well. TPAB is more critically acclaimed that Mr Morale.

If I can’t play it around the hoes, it’s for white people

Your side not contributing

Aubrey Tate stans and harassing women
Name a better duo

Anyone who doesn’t see that his output is intentionally geared towards critic and Grammy validation is just being intentionally obtuse

Are you trans? What separates you from the rest of these opinions because I'd argue you gotta be trans to critique this and opinions FROM Trans people was fairly divided on this, people that are actually impacted by all this

“don’t even see trans people as people” nice gargantuan reach

Drake stans are disgusting man, it's beyond just rivalry, niggas act like the man knows them

Nah you wouldn’t do anything cause it’s the internet

I called you a hoe so call me a hoe back or I dunno respond to what I quoted you on you obviously wanted attention so what makes me media illiterate?

But sure man you’re just gonna go back to posting on KTT your not gonna do anything to me so chill

So tell us how it is geared towards those things

Yeah. Like some other people said, I sometimes worry that people claim Kendrick is critic bait because of his subject matter inherently, which would be rough, because it has some negative implications about what rap is “allowed” to be about, without being critic bait.
But I try to be optimistic, so I’ll assume the best and that that isn’t what’s going on

After S80 & GKMC

I can’t blame someone for believing Kendrick discography is hard to get through

Not cause the musics bad, it just gets more dense from there

My fault I confused n95 with savior for your hello crackers comment lol

But how would u take songs like Father Time and mother I sober as virtue signaling. How can u do that when speaking about your own life experiences.

Not even a Drake fan thing

Just the average music listener in general doesn’t want to think at all when they listen to music

Living vicariously through celebrities and inserting yourself into stuff that has nothing to do with like harassing people gotta be some of the most pathetic s*** you can do. Miserable people.

Drake is radio bait by that logic

Background music bait
Drunk music bait

Even critics are difficult to please because they rush to judge something rather than truly sit with it especially in content age they want to be first to react . Instant gratification. Some deeper things later but shocking moments or lines that turn into tabloid articles which garner website revenue

You don’t have to make socially concisous political music to say more or connect or relate to an audience . There is only so much anyone can hear of highly poitical or I’m so rich I f*** all the b****es I own all the nice clothes my life is perfect

Both serve their purpose but both Kendrick and Drake subject matter wise have exhausted at least to their given limits and weaknesses their given topics

/s

nigga tryna call people transphobic because niggas saying you didn’t understand the song

half of y’all single out Auntie Diaries and constantly quote it out of 15+ songs on the album to make fun of it, but yeah, it’s everyone else that’s transphobic

Regardless of what Kendrick does it's gonna be considered critic bait because of how the media treats him. I don't see anyone telling Kendrick to go deeper into his songs

And he sounds a little too Eminem-y at times, so I think that helps him a lot. Whether it be actual pandering or him creating what he believes to be a bop. A lot of his bop records for me have a vocal performance that I generally don't want to hear

They not beating the loser allegations

I’m not trans but does that make my critique of the song illegitimate if it’s basic understanding that people don’t like to be misgendered?

What was the point of the part at the end? Who even calls women who turn into men the f word?
