Oh I def feel u. I hated the battle overall because it felt too corporate for me. But Drake is the one who introduced that aspect back when he battled Meek. And thats why I hated that battle as well. This is why I respect Pusha more than Kendrick during his beef with Drake because he stopped that nikka in his tracks without all the corporate bullshyt he nipped that shyt in the bud.
Don't forget they took the original Story of Adidon upload off youtube lol. The song had crazy views on Push channel. This the shyt Drake's camp was doing and now he suing nikkas. This is crazy

It's hilarious watching, in real time, Drake stans left dazed and confused at the one thing [popularity] their mans had over everyone else, only to have the floor vanish beneath them. They can't get their heads around the fact that Kendrick not only beat their mans in a battle, in its most primordial state, but managed to grab the public's attention with both hands and not let go.

Kendrick took center stage and told that Jew in Blackface to exit stage left.

If it was one thing that Drake stans could've rested their laurels on, is that the public would be playing and reciting his disses more, even if they weren't better, they could still be kingmakers of that, and they'd walk away convincing themselves they'd won. Except Kendrick came through and had the whole country singing his shyt like he was a popstar.

Even Drake is still having a hard time processing how he got beat at his own game.

And one was designed to be shocking and go viral, sucking attention away from the other thing, which it did.

I’m going to say it again you can literally look at the threads here to see how everyone gravitated towards the MTG thread once it dropped. The family matters thread turned into a MTG thread.

It was Meet the Grahms dropping the same night as Family Matters that truly made this beef crossover into the mainstream virality and get people that don’t even listen to rap to go what’s going on over there.

I understand the shock that MTG had and the controversy of Drake potentially hiding another kid. However, these threads aren't reflective of reality. The amount of hate Drake catches here versus how he streams in real life should tell you that.

We're enthusiasts. We are a niche when it comes to the entire population of people who consume music. Regular people aren't waiting around at 10PM ET on a Friday night for a diss song to drop, and then staying online for 45 minutes after that to be notified of a new Kendrick diss. And regular people aren't continuously spinning a Kendrick x Alchemist record at a rate where its rapidly outpacing a new Drake video in every metric from comments, likes to views. And not only that, but we saw FM get dislike bombed in real time. We're supposed to believe that was 100% human? C'mon fam.

And I'm not here to act like Drake doesn't play these same games. Every artist signed to a major is doing this shyt to some degree. Drake just got beat at his own game here.

I finally read it. Is he saying the label played games with the battle in Kendricks favor to gain leverage in a renegotiation he was trying to do with them? If so that's dirty af. Also I do feel Kendrick used bots during the battle but the least botted song the whole battle was Not Like Us. That shyt was a legit hit record. Drake gonna have to get over that shyt. Meet The Grahams I 100% feel was botted tho.
There is not a hit song that isn’t botted to a certain point. It’s apart of the formula. I’ve seen it with Uzi, French everyone. He suing now because it’s going against him now. Nothing out of the ordinary happened with not like us. Typical narc shyt. And he’s not winning this lawsuit lol

I don’t read that anywhere in the pre-action. You’re not wrong but he specifically cites bot usage on Spotify, payola at radio stations and having Siri recommend Not Like Us. He also talks about accounts being paid to promote.

Drake's arguments are already falling apart.

This is the guy referenced in the petition, about the Siri situation:



He said they misrepresented what he said, and left out key parts of his video. In his original video he explained Siri got confused due to Drake/Kendrick having similar lyrics. He also showed how Siri recognizes parts of lyrics.

None of that was mentioned in the petition, just "this guy proved Siri was playing Kendrick instead of Drake." Which was not even the point he was making.

The amount of people defending this is amazing, nobody else could do some bytch shyt like this and actually have people defending it.

I know y’all the type of nikkas that start a fight, get your wig split, then sue all because you got the shyt beat out of you.
