Kendrick alone is one of the biggest cultural events in hip-hop history, in his 12th year in the game :wow:

This is too much, unfortunately the album was his weakest album. But if he fukks around takes mad Grammys too, that string of W’s will be crazy

I bet Drake wishes he could go back in time and not catch feelings over the Control verse :mjlol:

It's funny to actually go back and revisit post "Control" because even then, you can see Drake was going to be bodied.

"Yeah, and nothing been the same since they dropped "Control"
And tucked a sensitive rapper back in his pajama clothes
Haha, joke's on you
High-five, I'm bulletproof
Your shots'll never penetrate
Pin a tail on the donkey, boy, you been a fake"

Drake interview with Billboard in August 2013
On any of the numerous occasions when another rapper tries to goad him into a public contest, he’s trying to let it roll off his shoulders. After hearing West Coast peer Kendrick Lamar’s instantly incendiary verse on Big Sean’s recent single “Control,” in which Lamar goes for the jugular of every rapper he deems a threat, including Drake, the latter says he “went about my day, went and got dinner and kept it moving.”

“I didn’t really have anything to say about it,” Drake says of the verse, which has so far inspired responses from A$AP Rocky, Joey Bada$$, former Los Angeles Lakers coach Phil Jackson and too many others to count. “It just sounded like an ambitious thought to me. That’s all it was. I know good and well that Kendrick’s not murdering me, at all, in any platform. So when that day presents itself, I guess we can revisit the topic.”

Well, we sure as hell revisited the topic in 2024.

It's critically acclaimed, fans are putting it in his top 3 and more and more publications claim its kendricks best work. Maybe a west coast sound wasn't for you, but its not his weakest at all.

On Metacritic it's far behind TBAP, GKMC, and DAMN. Fractionally above Mr. Morale. I would put it fractionally below.

Weakest ≠ weak

Weakest = least dope
