Nah, Kendrick running a PsyOp on this dude. The single best line to me from ‘euphoria’ is still ‘It’s not just me, I’m what the culture feelin’’. So he’s telling Drake all your industry ‘friends’ don’t fukk with you like that. They’re using you. You have no real love here.
NOW, he’s telling him his ‘real’ friends don’t fukk with him like that. Aubrey gonna be seeing distrust and hate no matter where he turns, whether it’s real or not.
I feel like he (Dot) knows exactly what he’s doing, and these songs are serving his purpose in spades. Drake in a tough spot for real. Think we may be hearing from that dude in Texas soon.
The thing about pursuing fame is that you make enemies on the way.
Drake has had to burn bridges to get this far. He has very few "real" friends left. Just like a lot of other people with a lot of influence and power in their field.
I suspect Drake will respond with album and tour sales, revenue, #1 hits, and imply Kendrick wife cheated on him.
But if I can predict thats how he’s going to respond, K. Likely has something ready for that too. He's calling Drake out as a rapper. He's accusing this man of being an actor who is still reading lines someone else wrote and pretending to be a character.
K. Is asking "who IS this man?" Push forced him to be a father. Drake is going to force this man to be a real rapper. Get in the studio, write your own response and respond lyrically and with depth. People are tired of the fake shyt. They want to hear something real.
Ball's in your court Aubrey. Will you respond like a man, or will you respond like a brand?
