@@shaspearman8647Drake is not capable of making conscious music due to a clear self absorption from his day one music, consciousness in music comes from the person's environment, in Hip Hop which is black music, it comes from how we're raised, the streets, the struggles, the wins, the Ls, that's why Eminem was able to stand out as a white rapper when he made songs like If I had, toy soldier which is almost the same as blacker the berry from Kendrick where they are both discussing how their environment shapes who they are, Eminem grew up similar to most black ppl and it's usually from harsh realities they faced, that then connects with people like me that endured similar shit, Drake grew up in a rich white family... That's why he's always smiling, as a kid I was charismatic an was capable of crazy code switching so I met kids like Drake with the same comfort smile, where their biggest problem is how uncomfortable a car ride is lol.. that's why he's always taking about himself, correct me if I'm wrong because I usually skip Drake but from what I've listened, when Drake says "girl I gotta watch my back, cause I'm not just anybody" and I've always said to myself, nigga ain't nobody looking for you lmao" the most u did was hurt a couple ppl feelings with your selfish ways.

Drake is one of the biggest reasons why music has deteriorated so much in the last 15 years. Some people actually think Drake can sing because he does it so often, yet no one would pay to go to a Drake concert with him just singing for over an hour. He also made it acceptable that all you need is a good beat for (young) people to like a song, no matter what the lyrics are. Something that back in the day wasn't the case, we had artists and group in allmusic genres experimenting with sounds that usually feel like time capsules. Most Drake beats and songs feel generic because most work is put in making and producing the beats and not in writing the lyrics or song structure to aim for it to become a timeless piece. Instead Drake's music feels like fast food music because it sounds like it's coming from an assembly line and in hindsight that's why probablyDrake's best album will always be Take Care because singer/songwriter The Weeknd wrote half of that album

this is further proof why Taylor Made Freestyle was and is the absolute dumbest thing Drake did in this beef. You need positive public perception in a beef and Drake divided that with the not clever or intuitive AI Tupac, and Drake painted himself AS THE VILLAIN IN THE BEEF. Drake for some dumb reason wanted to be the bad guy and played the heel. He even continues this in his other tracks. He never made himself look like the person to root for which is why Kendrick even calls him a Jabroni which is another name for a Jobber in wrestling. Drake also lost the 20v1 angle the second he released Taylor Made cause that song was solely for Kendrick to "Come outside" it was no longer a 20v1 at that point and Kendrick said "Bet". it was a 1v1 but Drake went at everyone again cause he has already made the song and video and didnt have enough on Kendrick

I don’t think it’s actually emphasized enough how Alright became a protest anthem. The song came out in 2015 and was an anthem for protests in 2020. It wasn’t just a hit song that people had in their heads at the time it resonated for years and became relevant to a movement. That is basically unheard of in modern times. I really don’t think people realize how impactful you have to be as an artist to get people to sing your song at protests where they are in an environment where their life is at risk, they can get tear-gassed, beaten, arrested etc.

Of all the accusations being thrown back and forth I think the most damming for Drake was when he was willing to use someone being SA'd as a child as ammunition against him. Sure Drake got it wrong to begin with but the low point you have to be at in order to use something like that against a person as if they are the one who should be shamed for it happening. Drake has always been a loser but that right there set him into a whole new class of loser.

Its crazy cause in the context of a rap battle there are really no rules and low blows are par for the course, but that was despicably low and he sounded like he was grasping at straws, struggling to squeeze all the juice out of any disrespectful angle he could use.

It's interesting that Drake is more known as the actor when Kendrick shows his acting chops through his music. He raps like a voice actor embodying the character, narrative, emotion, etc. His lyrics are pure poetry and the feeling behind that poetry comes out in the drama he put into his voice. In the beef you can hear moments where he's taunting Drake and others where he lets himself sound passive aggressive and then parts where he sounds like a pouty child talking to another kid on the playground ("you dont wanna work with me nomore okay." Almost bringing the idea of talking down to Drake as if he's the big 7 year old he acts like. That adds great texture in a rap.

Bruh, you brought truuuffff! Thank you! You know that of which you speak! Esperanza Spalding, "Cinnamon Tree," her bass work, the richness of her artistry is real. All Drake had to say she was "gettin all the praises." You saw Kendrick for his human connection and his respect for the richness of our roots. That's what Drake is missing, connection to his black lineage. So he uses others to write for him, to style for him, to choreo for him, and to siphon off a bit of their community clout for him. There's a mechanical, robotic, technical stroke from Drake's work; but from Kendrick you uncover a whole consideration, a full measure, a complete story, and a real connection. "Who give a f Michelle Obama put you on her playlist?" Drake says...like that's a diss on her. He just showed how little he knows and how much less he cares to know. He only dissed himself with that empty line! And that's why we all stood ten toes down behind Kendrick. The whole picture matters. The REAL family matters!
