Kendrick didn’t diss drake, he made him into a childhood story about picking enemies wisely
@pillowvibes
Ай бұрын
I think that’s why kendrick said ‘keep it friendly, don’t push me’ and ‘keep making me dance, waving my hand, and there won’t be no threat’ on euphoria despite having every intention to release meet the grahams and not like us during the beef. if drake had backed off, im pretty sure kendrick would’ve just came at him again lmao kendrick might’ve been secretly trying to encourage drake to bring up his family again when he dropped 6:16 in LA (which has a LOT of references to his weirdo behavior with teens) so he could make an example out of him. even some of his older songs are him daring drake to start beef with him.

@@tonym4953 @mamajayde and even in a tap context, a bar is just a line of kyrics that gits within a measurement or a section of a beat. Most “bars” are showing two measurements worth of lyrics.

That’s an odd comment to make. Statistically most black people don’t live in the ‘hood’, and have nothing to do with street culture and have never lived or experienced it.

The sad part is the people really didn't start clowning Drake until he started trying to act tough. He as perfectly fine being pretty boy Drake from Toronto, there's nothing wrong with not being "tough" or from the hood as a black person. It's the desperation to prove your blackness instead of just being black. You know why people don't make fun on Lil Nas X for being a gay man in a genre that regularly makes fun of gay people? Because Lil Nas X doesn't try to act straight, he doesn't pretend to be who he's not. When Drake was singing and talking about broken relationships, it was amazing. Now it's just kind of sad

Drake will always sing about a broken heart because he is a broken, entitled, and toxic man, who can't maintain a stable or healthy relationship. However, instead of him questioning himself what he could be doing wrong which is impossible for him to do due to his egotistical and immature mindset, he attacks the women even if it is years later.

Drake’s problem isn’t just that he’s trying to fit in with a gang culture he knows nothing about, it’s also that he’s lost what made him authentically him by forgetting where he came from. When he speaks about not fitting in with his friends, or supporting his mom, there’s a measure of understanding there because even though he grew up in a good neighborhood he still had issues, & that was part of what allowed him to reach such a broad audience. Wayne told him that, but success & complacency changed him and he lost touch with his roots, & in his pursuit to appeal to everyone he wound up being no one at all.

Kendrick is up for a friendly fade. What Drake did that spiral this beef out of control was him telling his wife's name then disrespects his son on Family Matters. People would say that Kdot did the child disrespecting first, but that line on Euphoria is directly to Drake to tell him he is a better father and focuses more on his kids instead if stressing on this beef like a child/Drake. Not the "He is not your son because it's your friends baby" and "Let's have our kids play on the park since both of them are light skinned and not full black like you." See, Drake has a problem. He don't listen. And if he does, he don't understand. Which is why There's a line on Meet the Grahams saying "Metaphors doesn't reach you"

The door knock at the start of the video originated from At a Dark Town Cake Walk. A cakewalk party is where slaves were forced to dance for a cake prize, and they tended to sort of mock their masters with the dances, to the applause of their masters. “Shave and a haircut, two bits” is another name for it.

@dancegod1691 The longer version is this 👉🏾The tune for "Shave and a Haircut, Two Bits" originated in 1899 from Charles Hale's minstrel song "At a DARK TOWN Cakewalk". The rhythm from the song was often used at the end of a piece of music for comedic effect and has become a recognizable rhythm in North America. The phrase "shave and a haircut" is often accompanied by the words "two bits" or "five cents" and is used as a musical riff at the end of a piece. ALSO 👉🏾 Darktown was an African-American neighborhood in Atlanta Georgia. Darktown was characterized as a hell hole of squalor, degradation, sickness, crime & misery. The term Darktown was also used generically in Atlanta and the rest of the South to refer to African-American districts. Currier and Ives produced a series of popular racist- caricature lithographs under the title, Darktown Comics. 👀 Kendrick is knowledgeable beyond imagination 🤯

A quote from Kendrick "you can't immitate this violence" is so true. People world wide often miss how f!@#ed America is on so many levels. I have heard people from other countries romanticize America and say all Americans are rich with spirts cars and houses, eating out or grilling daily. Most Americans are in a lot of daily pain because we cannot afford going to a doctor. A single exam will fully bankrupt most Americans. Under all possible measurements (wealth, safety, education, food security, ect), the worst parts of Canada are better than most of America. Furthermore Drake was not even from the worst parts. He grew up with an entire basement to himself, in an already big house and was a childhood actor. If you have read this far, I hope you have a great day. Thank you and goodnight.

So what? What is it with you black Americans, always with this envy of blacks that didn't grow up poor? I know blacks that are almost ashamed of telling others they weren't poor growing up for fear of having their blackness called into question. News flash, most blacks are not poor, you are disproportionately poor-- which is not the same statement. Always acting like a black person like my wife is not a 'real' black person because she grew up upper-middle and everyone in her fam in a two parent household? Who are you to define anything? Interesting, you complain when blacks don't have anything, and complain even louder when blacks found a way to get some things. Make up your damn minds! No one from any damn inner-city is more black than my wife and kids because they have never been poor--No One!

When I saw the video I instantly thought about that People say "he's dancing on the grave" and yeah but not in the sense of winning over Drake, but in the sense of showing people how they are all more similar than they think. This whole video I loved because it is a look into Kendrick's mind, into his culture and how he grew up, and how to him everything is indeed blessed. This wasn't about superiority, but about somebody trying to rip his connections and him saying "we're not together just because of money, like the people that you treat like friends" I remember you was conflicted

I know you said, "Kinda." But I just wanna add a note, he invented Clowning, which is an offshoot of Krumping. Tight Eyez created Krumping. Edit: Krumping is an offshoot of Clowning. The comment below has respectfully corrected me. My apologies. 🙂

Thank you for mentioning this!!! A lot of people get this confused. Also, it is Krumpin’ that is an offshoot of Clownin’. Tight Eyez was one of Tommy’s students. One more reason why the inclusion of him in this historical moment is so paramount. Krumping blew the eff up, but nobody gave Tommy the nod he deserves for his influence on the style…till now! Which is actually another “Not Like Us” reference within itself. The movie Rize documents both dance styles and how one is definitely not the other 🤭😂

The first time I ever or seen heard of Tommy the Clown was in a 2005 film called Rize. Tommy's dancing, showmanship and positive energy would attract people of all backgrounds to the street to dance, creating a movement primarily on his own, self made. Watching Kendrick's video and seeing Tommy was like a flashback, almost like a sequel to the 2005 film. Just happy to see Tommy doing well for himself, far from where he started but still there. p.s. many of the kids that took up clowning, krumping became famous dancers and choreographers in their own right.
