Dude used bots like a mf I know yall hate Drake down to his fiber and think he represents all that’s wrong with hip hop or whatever the fukk but it’s the truth
We couldn't trust organic numbers during the era of physical copies

Of course labels do shyt like this lol.

For me, it's actually sueing over it, know damn well your label plays them games for you too.

That and, read the room. He had to know the reaction to this would not be good.......

It's universally accepted that Kendrick won, to sue afterwards. Like c'mon man. Lol

I remember the diary entry he put out after Push dissed him. He should have remembered the public reaction.

I don't think his career is over, but nothing he has done during the aftermath of Not Like Us as get back has turned the tide for him. Just leave it alone and make music for your fans.

A 720 deal based on numbers, quotas and goals reachable for the biggest rapper in music, not a toxic celeb with a dying brand. That deal is a coffin right now.

He signed it.


All he had to do was learn from that ass whoppin Pusha T unleashed on him and be the Pop star he was always supposed to be and stop cosplaying as some kind of “rappers rapper”. Sending dummy shots at Kendrick like Kendrick hadn’t been WAITING to rip his head off wasn’t wise. Using A.I. to impersonate one of the most beloved figures in the genre wasn’t wise. NONE of his moves in the year 2024 were wise. This dude should’ve been dropping singles with Ariane Grande and Dua Lipa, not hopping in the ring with a nikka from Comptom whose been writing his own raps the entirety of his life.


Now this half a nikka wanna go up against the very record label who turned him into an international star. Ask the ghost of Michael Jackson how that went, and Michael had ACTUAL validated issues for going against his label. Ask Prince how going against his label went for him. Dude had to change his name to an unpronounceable symbol.

Take your L in silence and tranquility. You earned ALL of this the moment you decided not to walk the path that was laid out for you because you watched a few Smack rap battles and thought he was the second coming of Hitman Holla.

Drake never responded to "The Story Of Adidon" and instead J Prince went on a tour promoting his book and explaining why Drake would no longer engage in the rap battle.

I thought that was as bad as sh*t gets until the Cole thing. And now this.
