Can a case be made that Kendrick Lamar prevented future and metro's "like that" from being a super smash hit?

Hear me out.

Pluto was in his bag, and if he wouldve had another verse..or maybe a verse from baby and the song would've been a summer anthem still..Future usually good at these

but Kendrick took the attention all to himself, and called out drake for the sake of his album rollout (good business strategy for his individual career)..which then turned into the drake/kendrick month that followed..and it basically buried "like that" shortly after

did kendrick low key sabotage this song from reaching it's full potential? Yea it got attention, but for the wrong reasons..it could've been way bigger as a single without the beef aspect
Still can't believe they didn't do a video for this one. I wanted to see his energy on that verse.

I did stop hearing “like that” once “They not like us” came out but there’s no telling if like that would have even been as big as it was without the Drake diss in the first place :manny:

:scust: Gen Z different bro. Smelling a fine ass woman’s seat is one thing. But smelling a hairy balls ass man’s seat is certified deviant fakkitry in my book.

I have no don’t in my mind OP would want a whiff of Drakes culo.

Like That was AND still is a smash hit.
Kendrick and Future been had bangers before. It wasn't just about dissing Drake.
