it's not about "too scared" or anything like that - y'all gotta stop viewing this as just a rap battle where two honorable rappers go at each other just for the love for the craft lol
this is all about achieving results at all costs, brute-forcing them with all means throughout multiple major entities. calling him a pedo was the entire point of this s***, the other tracks are whatever
I still think it was a matter of escalation.
Euphoria is a diss but still not anything too personally heavy. 6:16 the same thing. Family Matters drops then Meet the Grahams. I don't think MTG or NLU drop without Family Matters.
Lets call a spade a spade, Drake tried to smear Kendrick's reputation as well.
lemme get the timeline straight
2011-2012: Drake & Kendrick are cool, even tour together
2013: Kendrick drops Control, calling out a dozen rappers, and Drake takes it more personally than anyone else involved
2014-2023: tons of subliminals back & forth, mostly from Drake
2024:
This is crazy biased and revisionist lmao
Not a lawsuit at all, petition

so, in your mind, people should be punished for voicing that they dislike Drake?
do you even hear yourself rn lol
you really can't read, jeez
you know damn well y'all let some wild s*** fly on here, including weirdo ass troll threads
take it on the chin
so why is he showing up on their playlists lmao
even if that was true where the playlist was purposely placed there, no one is clicking that in the gospel section to boost streams regardless, especially finesse, prob one of the least favorited swing on that album
Drakes problem is that his label helped orchestrate a hit on his image in order to lower his deal… he’s not going after Kendrick for saying it, he’s going after his label for backstabbing him, why is that so hard to understand

finesse is a certified classic
Except being called a pedophile then I’ll see you in court buddy
bruh, dont play holier than thou about semantics and s*** in one post then not in the other
nothing about this filing is him saying its wrong for kendrick to call him a pedo
As for the Drake asked for this is ridiculous from the fact of inviting Kendrick on FPS to Taylor Made
Talk about him liking young girls that's a gift from me, is what we call Battle Rap, he called out an angle via bait cause he had a rebuttal angle THP6
Drake didn't consider that no one actually cares about rapping back and forth or reality or looking into his angles despite there actually being a person who was at work when Kendrick beat a women who spoke on it plus media take out who posted it in 2014 flat out stating a crisis team reached out to take it down then so they reposted. Or What's The Dirt proving same.
Drake miscalculated, sure.
Drake asking for this 11 year back and forth or to be called a pedo is ridiculous and honestly just depressing I'm stuck on planet with y'all looking at the world this way as it burns
Apathy for all.

this makes sense if your only exposure to battle rap ever is from watching 8 Mile
finesse is a certified classic
To the casual listener bro
because nobody mentioned any family members until Push Ups bro c'mon.
Whitney has been publicly linked to Kendrick for a decade. He literally said her name in alluding to DV allegations. Which make Kendrick look bad, not Whitney. Kendrick has every right to feel a way but it wasn't some I f***ed your b**** you fat mother f***er line.
Burden of proof is on you to prove that Drake was behind that

Nothing in this article says Drake did it, specially says Spotify
corporations don’t do things for free lmao
corporations don’t do things for free lmao
Who said it was free lmao, Spotify was tryna gain favor back with Drake, ofc it’s transactional, doesn’t mean he asked for it
It really isn't, the licensing fee reduction, the payola, the push during negotiations are the core issues.
NLU was a tool in that scheme.
The harm comes from the inflation due to the above in an effort to lower value.
If true.
And some people believe he was planning on suing UMG before the beef happened. I think it lines up with lyrics from certain songs like Red Button.
We'll never know now.

If a number 1 song calling Drake a pedo never existed would we still have both lawsuits?

Nah let’s not forget ppl were saying he was in bed w Lucian, Kanye’s dumbass saying “where’s Lucian serve your master”
you really can't read, jeez

take it on the chin
only one of us is taking something on the chin rn and it’s not me
If a number 1 song calling Drake a pedo never existed would we still have both lawsuits?
if there was another song that umg pushed to purposefully devalue drakes brand in an attempt to lower his contract value (if the accusations end up being true), then yes i think we'd still see the lawsuit
Kendrick said they sent FPS to him like they were cool, so clearly Drake had been tryna act like there was nothing going on behind the scenes when that wasn’t the case
he did the exact same thing with The Weeknd as well
Kendrick isn’t like The Weeknd
Before 2024’
Nothing serious even happened between those two that a conversation couldn’t solve
It was just some little stuff in 2013.
Kendrick is soy
Weeknd situation a girl is Involved which I can understand a little more
Whitney has been publicly linked to Kendrick for a decade. He literally said her name in alluding to DV allegations. Which make Kendrick look bad, not Whitney. Kendrick has every right to feel a way but it wasn't some I f***ed your b**** you fat mother f***er line.
hence why drake stans and jared (who drake knows) commenced to harass and bother her to the point she had to start blocking people right?
Whitney has no rap experience and thus nothing to do with a rap battle, you can keep it to bars which was all Kendrick did on Like That verse.
why is it ok for drake to throw in family into rap beef first but then it's not ok for the other person to do it back to him?
did you keep this same energy when pusha mentioned 40? (someone actually involved in drake's rapper career)
Kendrick said they sent FPS to him like they were cool, so clearly Drake had been tryna act like there was nothing going on behind the scenes when that wasn’t the case
he did the exact same thing with The Weeknd as well
proof FPS was sent? Need the actual paperwork
if there was another song that umg pushed to purposefully devalue drakes brand in an attempt to lower his contract value (if the accusations end up being true), then yes i think we'd still see the lawsuit
This exactly read the petition
