Nah Drake got the point

This whole "this hip hop the game " is bullsht

When u ever hear rappers back in the 90's or 80s drop a name in a negative context then not translate it in disrespect

This is hip hop

Its basically an unwritten rule that when u name drop in such a way its disrespect

Its only in this soft ass "hip hop is a friendly competition" era thatwe're trying to change that sht

Basically Kdot pulled a fck nikka publicity stunt disregarding all genuine relationships all for the sake of attention

Simple as that

Drake has a point though.

If you rap with him then you always have to focus on the bullshyt of "oh who got who" etc.

You dont think nikkas do that already. nikkas always talk about who out shined who.

Just in regards to some of the comments in the thread:

For those saying Kendrick owes Drake for puttin him on, well yeah he had Kendrick open for his tour which did help get him exposure, but it ain't like Kendrick was some random unknown, "Hiiipower Power" was getting a major response and K.Dot already had the Dr Dre co-sign. By the time the tour started Kendrick was already one of the most talked about by CouponDropDown">new artist. Plus he gave Drake a spot on his own album so what more do y'all want him to do? Correct

For those saying "how is he salty, he didn't bring it up, he's just answering the question", well he is salty in the way he answers the question. First he tries to downplay it on some "came and gone" shyt (even though they still asking about it so obviously it hasn't quite gone yet). Then he tries to deflect on some "don't expect features from none of the named artists" instead of just speaking his own mind about how he personally feels about it (the other artist didn't seem to take if to heart). Correct, he did slip up . . he justified and redirected, overtly transparent but it likely goes over most listeners heads so he slides on here, he didn't stumble or start stuttering.

The fact that he took it so personally that he won't work with dude no more shows how salty he is. All this "well I coulda did that but I don't wanna hurt my friendships" shyt is weak. Drake is the only one who took it that way. Dude is overly sensitive. Plus ain't this the same guy talking bout "no new friends". It ain't like he grew up with Kendrick. He coulda said "fukk Kendrick, I took him on tour, put him on my album, gave him exposure and this the thanks I get". Yeah he still would be taking it personal but at least then he would be responding like he got a little bit of testosterone. False, you're starting to sound like you're braindead

If it really came and went why is he taking it so personal. (+1) It wasn't even really a dis like that. And even if he takes it as a dis, his only response is "I wouldn't have did that, friendship is more important". It seems to me that Drake knows he doesn't really have that much of a claim in hip hop and he scared to get his pass revoked by getting into it with a real MC. And Kendrick is a Compton Blood who gets respect from both street rappers and backpackers, so he about as real as it gets. He can't play the "he old and irrelevant" card this time, Kendrick is younger than Drake. And he don't wanna take it as "it's hip hop it's about competition" because he scared to compete with a real rapper. So instead he just take it personal and is just gonna leave it at that. Smh

Edit: damn just looked at how long my response is, I feel like a fukking lame

In the post, up in here successfully calls out the flaw in Drake's logic.Makes light of the obvious interview school 101 reframing/redirecting

*cracks knuckles*

Now ltets get some destruction started shall we

Now what was exactly salty about the way he answered the question?? Sold post intro

Lemme sum up the answer he gave Give it to em

He basically said Control came and went which is evident by the stop in Control responses Wrong response
He said taking that "Im against everyone in this sht" approach so early in ya career may hurt him cuz the people will then have an unreasonable expectation of u being this "anti" guy and if not ppl will turn their back on u Bang, +1
He even said Kdot is good enough that he'll recover from that tho
And the comment bout ppl not workin with him after that is based on how it'll look if ur collabin with a dude who ur supposed to be "murdering" career wise when colabs are a "help me and i help u" situation fair point, but misappropriated

What in this is salty?? ()

Everything Drake said in response to the question is accurate and honest ( true)

Now lemme tackle these assumptions bout Drake being scared??

Drake has had more battles on wax than Kdot so what sense does that make??
Drake also made note that he expected Kdot to be on some Live rara confrontational sht when they met in the vmas but he was still his humble self
Drake responding to such a desperate attention cry only further legitimizes kdot and his claims if drake were to call kdot worth of a namedrop

Drake has the same right kdot has to basically dismiss that sht with a "Gotta try harder"

And that IS what he did

Drake knows kdot's game and recognizes all those publicity stunts and antics dnt give u longevity

Drake studied the game and he's passin in this sht
Kdot still got alot to learn

Entertaining post rhetoric, supportive but fact based although at times blackslash leaves the logically in-tune reader grasping at straws




round 1 - interpretation of Drake's initial response goes to up in here, more clarescent and reality based
round 2 - grasping of the overall message, although slightly flawed in logic this one goes to blackslash

this leaves us at a tie going into a third round of sudden death

Drake is right

It did come and go and it was mainly being fuelled by the media

 

[ECA]

yall begged for drake to mention him by name, now that he does hes a bytch for it?

How about he does it in a song

 

[emoney]

Dudes really sensitive over that verse. It wasn't even a fukking diss

I'd figure you'd want to get on a record and try to smash him at least

if it's not a diss then why were stans crying out for responses from the people mentioned in the song?

some of yall keep flip flopping on whether it was a diss or not

I said when it dropped that I didn't understand why people kept acting like it was a diss. He gave props to his boys and then declared he was approaching this rap shyt competitively.

People just overreact when they hear a name being dropped on the record, because we are all so use to subliminals.

Its always been this way in hip hop tho

Never been a time in hip hop where nikkaz was cool with u namedrppin in a negative context

Its only in this soft ass era that nikkaz talkin all this "hurrh durr hip hop friendly competition" and rappers being all cool wit it n sht

i guess my point is I didn't see it in a negative context. I viewed it more as Kendrick acknowledging who he considered to be his only worthy peers (so giving them props) but then saying "I want the throne though and I'm going hard for it." I actually viewed it as a compliment in a twisted way. I might even be more annoyed if I wasn't mentioned.

Anyway, that's my opinion. Everyone is entitled to his / her own.

 

[Red Maverick II]

nikka named Drake should have never said: "Diss me you'll never hear a reply for it" way back when.

Not like he can hold his own in a battle to begin with, but still

 

[Still Benefited]

Exactly.

Dude said "I've had moments when i thought I could just go at everybody but then I thought...ah...well where does it really get me? Then what? Everytime I rap people will expect me to be confrontational, then when I'm not then its not entertaining."

I thought he didn't spend time worrying about what dudes on the internet was thinking though...so why he suddenly worried about what people will want or will not find entertaining?



And he can think it wuz twitter talk for 5 minutes...but the media still asking him and just about every rapper they have interviews with how they felt about the line...shined a light back on Papoose....reenergized a whole coast momentarily...had potential to start a east vs west rivalry u never thought ud see again but cooler heads prevailed.

He can downplay the impact,but that shyt really happened...and he seemed to take it pretty bad and is more agitated each time he is asked about and has to respond to this "5 min twitter talk"

Drake trynna say KDot is a here today gone tmrw type of nugga dude sounds hurt
