People “love” you only as so much as they can get what they want from you. Kendrick has already told us over the course of an entire DOUBLE ALBUM that he’s not the messiah or savior for anyone or anybody. And he wasn’t cryptic about it. He literally said “I am NOT your savior” and for some reason nikkas STILL put that stamp on him. If I was Kendrick I wouldn’t pop out anymore than I already did. He gave Mustard his first hit in YEARS and people are saying he’s wrong for not tweeting about an album he’s NOT on. Did a whole concert and gave unknowns time to shine and people acting like he should be promoting all their projects like he’s their A&R.

When it was battle time Kendrick went against Drake man to man. Most of these west coast artists waited until the battle swung permanently in Kendrick’s favor to say anything (which is their right) and then they all drew for Kendrick when NLU became the biggest hit of the year. Wack 100 was lowkey drawing for Drake until it was clear Kendrick body bagged him. Game crashed out for Drake. Lets not act like this west coast “unity” isn’t about the BUSINESS of getting names out there. Everyone who popped up in the NLU music video got a look. Everyone who performed at the Pop Out concert got a look (and a bag)

Kendrick is well aware of the power of his brand and wields it wisely. The fact he was able to do what he did against Drake, get most of the west coast on his side, and nobody’s complaining about any of his moves or supposed lack thereof should be a testament to the fact that he’s moving EXACTLY how he should be. The nikka didn’t survive growing up in Compton and becoming one of the biggest rappers of his generation falling for fake love and a messiah complex.
Messiah was the wrong word to use and I didn’t mean it like that. I meant more like if it’s just big me then let it be that, show up more on features, etc. Again he doesn’t have to do a damn thing more than he’s already doing, I say all this as a Kendrick fan who loves when he pops up on features. Like That was a moment for a reason not only because of the Drake shyt but he popped up on a Future and Metro album.

Breh Game and Ross got songs together. Ross was on one of Game’s biggest hits. Since WHEN has Game “always” hated Ross? Matter of fact wasn’t Ross on Game’s last album that anyone cared about?



This was literally less than two years ago. Game dissed Ross because Ross was going at Aubrey and Game wanted to get in on the action WITHOUT directly going at Kendrick because it would’ve made him look like a hater but he still wanted to draw for Drake. It is what it is but lets not rewrite history like Game and Ross EVER had any real issues or beef. Notice how now that the beef has died down Game ain’t said a goddamn thing about Ross, and we all know when its real problems that Game NEVER shuts up about an opponent.

Drake is an opportunist and always has been. Its why half the industry finally had enough and gave him a collective “fukk You” when he went to war with someone he couldn’t meme his way to victory or hide up under J Prince’s old ass. That and he has the rep for deliberately fukking everyone’s wife or girlfriend. Its been said over and over that Drake NEVER helped anyone out of the goodness of his heart or for the “love” of Hip Hop. He did it because it in turn helped HIM, which in itself isn’t a bad thing, this is a BUSINESS at the end of the day. But nikkas ain’t giving you props taking Asap Rocky and Kendrick on tour when any idiot could tell they were about to be the biggest things smoking. Kendrick was literally anointed on stage by Dr Dre and Snoop Dogg as the chosen one to revive the West Coast and Asap had one of the biggest buzzes a modern day New York artist has ever had (maybe THE biggest) Drake didn’t do a damn thing for their careers that wasn’t already on the horizon. Good Kid m.A.A.d City was going to be a classic whether Drake was on it or not. And Drake exposed his REAL feelings about both of them in due time. His bytch made crying over the Control verse was despicable. Dude literally said “Nobody’s going to work with Kendrick anymore” over a goddamn battle verse, then went on ESPN and crashed out and tried to clean it up threatening not to host the ESPY’s if they aired the interview.

Your running with this “Kendrick helps nobody” angle simply because he doesn’t dangle the help or assistance he gives to people over their heads the way Drake does. But again, NOBODY has ever complained about Kendrick not helping them or the moves he makes. Thats literally unheard of in Rap music, where everyone feels someone owes them something. Mustard has only expressed gratitude towards Kendrick. Every rapper at the Pop Out concert has only good things to say about him. The nikka LEFT Top Dawg entertainment and nobody on the label has even sent a subliminal shot his way, again this is unprecedented. So why exactly do people have such an issue with Drake, if he’s this saint who charitably bestows favors and sprinkles miracles over the careers of others and no smoke for Kendrick if he’s this selfish hoarding troll? It makes no sense.

Maybe its because one’s favors are tipped with poison. The Weeknd straight up told us what it was years ago. He wrote the majority of Take Care and in “return” Drake wanted him to sign a terrible deal with OVO and Weeknd told him to kiss his ass and went onto become one of the biggest artists on the planet. Quentin Miller wrote one of Drake’s biggest albums and in “return” got dropped like a hot tamale once it got exposed Drake was a fraud who couldn’t write his way out of a wet paper bag. NOBODY flourishes under Drake while Kendrick got Keem and Dave Free Grammys. He ghostwrote Jay Rock’s verse on Rock’s biggest song and got him a Grammy. He curated the Black Panther soundtrack and gave a bunch of west coast artists a HUGE look.

Mustard is going to eat for the rest of his life off Not Like Us. It went number 1 based off KENDRICK’s hype not Mustard’s. It has a great chance of garnering several grammy noms, including becoming the first diss song to be nominated for Record Of The Year. Mustard will get credit, royalties, and recognition for all of that. And he didn’t have to ghostwrite Kendrick’s verses or offer up his woman to get it. Go ask Majid Jordan or DVSN how much Drake tweeting their album releases are worth versus Kendrick’s involvement with several west coast artists without having to say a word.

What’s funny is around ‘14-15 Kendrick could have easily rode the Mustard wave when he was at his hottest for the GKMC follow up. Still put a bunch of CALI artists on TPAB only for people to call it free the slave music.

I knew Mustard had an album coming out the night it dropped. That’s a problem.

This is dap bait. Especially for Kendrick fans. But I been around for too long. U can flip the shyt how u want. Say what u want about Drake. But let's get it straight. Keem is Kendrick's family. Dave Free is his childhood best friend. So u aren't saying anything that I haven't already said. Kendrick looks out for himself and his family. All u just did right there is reiterated my shyt. Now if I flipped around and posted a bunch if people Drake helped and helped get Grammys u would try to dismiss it and twist it. Is Drake always on the up and up? NOPE. And u can't name an artist at his caliber that is. Not Jay, Not Eminem, not Wayne, not Nicki and the list goes on. But the FACT of the matter is this. Drake has helped more artists than Kendrick. NO DEBATING. nikka has literally gave hit songs away that I've heard his version first and to artists that aren't even signed or associated. He did it for Jamie Foxx. He did it for Alicia Keys. He did it for Rick Ross. He did it for Meek. He did it for Kendrick. And the list goes on. Kendrick ain't the type of nikka to do that and never has been.

Kendrick doesn't do shyt on social media besides post his own music. Even the last few years on TDE he wasn't promoting their shyt. That's how he moves, it's similar to how many big artists operate on social media, and if you're in the industry you understand that before working with him lol.

Given that Mustard is on record saying he told his label that Not Like Us was the biggest promo he could possibly get...he has no issue with this. His last album was on Interscope, had two hits, and only did 36k first week. This one is independent and did half that with no hits. I'd say that's not bad at all.

My question remains the same.

If Drake is this great benevolent god of gifting hit songs to others and Kendrick is this selfish, self-righteous, ebeneezer scrooge who only cares about himself then why did half the industry, not just c-list level artists but actual bonafide SUPERSTARS agreeing PUBLICLY with the notion that Drake is indeed a colonizing user and nobody has a bad thing to say about Kendrick? Nobody has a bad thing to say about him, in fact its the opposite. J.Cole fell all over himself apologizing to Kendrick and calling him a great man and artist. Kendrick left TDE and Punch continues to sing his praises to this day. Even Game, when he was lowkey trying to draw for Drake through battling Rick Ross, took time out to shoutout Kendrick and stress he has no problems with him.

Every bar Drake threw at Kendrick regarding his character, someone stepped up to squash it. Drake said Kendrick didn’t do anything for Compton and nikkas came out IMMEDIATELY with receipts to the contrary, Drake he’d get more love in LA than Kendrick and that CLEARLY didn’t happen. He claimed Kendrick beat his girl and his girl smiling and dancing up a storm with their kids in the music video.

Seems like everyone knows where they stand with Kendrick and respects that whereas nikkas got tired of Drake riding their waves and then fukking their girls on some weird shyt.

I never said Drake was the god of gifting songs. I said the nikka does more for other artists than Kendrick. Imma put it like this. nikkas will go out of their way to show love to Rakim. Rakim ain't never helped NOBODY. And that's fam. But that's real talk.

It's cap. It's just a bunch of social media dikkriders. Matter fact thats video of Young Thug saying the opposite. Saying Drake one for the few artists that come to ATL and reach down and help nikkas. Benny recently said the shyt in the last few months and social media rightfully focused on his fukked up hairline. Lol.

People “love” you only as so much as they can get what they want from you. Kendrick has already told us over the course of an entire DOUBLE ALBUM that he’s not the messiah or savior for anyone or anybody. And he wasn’t cryptic about it. He literally said “I am NOT your savior” and for some reason nikkas STILL put that stamp on him. If I was Kendrick I wouldn’t pop out anymore than I already did. He gave Mustard his first hit in YEARS and people are saying he’s wrong for not tweeting about an album he’s NOT on. Did a whole concert and gave unknowns time to shine and people acting like he should be promoting all their projects like he’s their A&R.

When it was battle time Kendrick went against Drake man to man. Most of these west coast artists waited until the battle swung permanently in Kendrick’s favor to say anything (which is their right) and then they all drew for Kendrick when NLU became the biggest hit of the year. Wack 100 was lowkey drawing for Drake until it was clear Kendrick body bagged him. Game crashed out for Drake. Lets not act like this west coast “unity” isn’t about the BUSINESS of getting names out there. Everyone who popped up in the NLU music video got a look. Everyone who performed at the Pop Out concert got a look (and a bag)

Kendrick is well aware of the power of his brand and wields it wisely. The fact he was able to do what he did against Drake, get most of the west coast on his side, and nobody’s complaining about any of his moves or supposed lack thereof should be a testament to the fact that he’s moving EXACTLY how he should be. The nikka didn’t survive growing up in Compton and becoming one of the biggest rappers of his generation falling for fake love and a messiah complex.
Kendrick fans can’t help but glaze . He’s tweeted projects before stop all these dissertations about this . Him and Drake are both free to do whatever they want with their time ( do nothing , tweet , do features etc ) however Kendrick fans want to attach a sinister motive to everything Drake does because you don’t like him . Thats it . We don’t need paragraphs. If this was me or @spliz you’d say we see glazing and Aubrey angels . It’s the music business not Music friend ship
