If we put all bias aside, top 5 really is all kendrick songs...thats not even stanning, thats just objectivity lol.Top 5 are all Kendrick songs?Just sit this one out.
Family Matters sucked because Drake sucks. Period.
His best performance in the battle was chalk full of easily refutable lies, obvious ghost-written bars, corny one-liners, tired cliches, and the few good lines were reserved for MC’s no one cared about. Even the ONE quotable he managed to land “Kendrick just opened his mouth/somebody go give him a Grammy right now” has been turned against him as its all but guaranteed that the most popular diss track of the last ten years WILL indeed receive several Grammy nominations.

It's definitely not, MTG is an objectively bad record. It's not even close.
Lol MTG is one of the best records of all time
You're a clone. It's even insulting to even pretend drake had a song that came close.
Even when we look further than this beef. Drake has never crafted a song as epic as MTG
(but hey, no surprise you're in the minority and against a strong consensus)
Not Like Us being the massive hit that it is obviously takes all the shine, but if anyone told me Meet The Grahams was #1, and the best diss track they ever heard, I'd be fine with that. That's how good, well written, effective and vicious it was.

1. "Really, really tryna keep it PG" wasn't the slam dunk he thought it was and lowkey backfired tremendously
2. YG responded and said keep my name out ya mouth ya weird ass nikka
3. "Ain't getting shyt shot" line got Drake's house and bodyguard shot up
4. Dave Free and Whitney mentions went absolutely nowhere
5. Pharrell diss wasn't the slam dunk he thought it was, you can't diss somebody for having possession of their jewelry when you paid millions to purchase the shyt
6. Sexy Red quoted bars were cringeworthy at best and lowkey added validity to the "2 bad bytches" line
7. Dissing someone for receiving too many Grammys and awards is a weird flex and a reach
8. Rick Ross and ASAP Rocky got dissed the hardest and neither of them gave a fukk
9. Mentioning having a "Big D" then mentioning kids playing at the park right after was self-ether
10. The whole MJ/Prince switch up felt desperate and lame considering he's the one that was talking rah rah about that initially on First Person Shooter
11. He admitted he got "slimed for his AP" which ain't appropriate on a diss record
12. "Slaves freed" line was horrible optics for a mixed dude that has public blackface pictures blasted everywhere
13. "Head to Delilah with all of my ice" he sounded soft as hell when he said this with that high pitched ass singing voice shyt
14. All the short jokes were absolute misses
15. Insinuating Keem wrote for him is baseless as hell
i could keep going but i'ma leave it at thosei don't wanna hear no talk on here about that song being good ever again
I like the beats and the flow, but the lyrics are just too corny I often end up switching to another song.
Drake from Canada trying to chastise Kendrick about not banging a set, while bigging up Chris Brown for being a celebrity gang member...if those lines weren't in there as well as a few others I'd enjoy the song a whole lot more.
Labeling his girl "a mixed queen" as a knock to Kendrick's perception as being pro black is just dumb as hell. He fukked the song up with these braindead lines.

I doubt Kendrick would've been THAT prepared or methodical If Drake didn't announce when FN dropped.
If so Kendrick is damn near a prophet if he did that, especially how quick he dropped MTG.
