But it also had to be amazing

If the formula was just “make a diss song and go number 1” then Drake would’ve had at least ONE during the beef

Kendrick’s songs were so undeniable that he blocked HIMSELF from having 3 number 1s during the battle

Like That
NLU
euphoria (blocked by NLU)

Drake is a prime example why Popularity + Diss song doesn’t always equal a Hit

That would be disappointing af

a snowball in hell has better chances than little simz being made the face of anything massive in hip hop

Wanting one person fo be the face of rap is lame

ill be honest i do not doubt that 'that one' young feller sikkx93dsjfn is 'the one' rn i just need all of these funny name dudes to make ONE album with direction and good songs. if all there is to them is funny sounding singles and random music vids then kendrick is here to stay

Incredibly

You can tell they dont listen to much else if its not OVO affiliated

thats how you become an era defining artist i guess. i dont care for 'just let artists be artists' hippie bullshit thats not what we're talking about

I think to be era-defining you have to stand out in an era full of standouts

Which I think Kendrick has already done, its just becoming more obvious to see in hindsight especially in rap

In pop or whatever you can make whatever streaming number arguments you want

Nobody is going to agree on who the face of the genre in 2025 is besides stans anyway

Why would I care about that

True Kendrick did go for hit diss records.

I guess the only one Drake wanted to be a hit was Push Ups but that didnt do much

To be fair Push ups did leak, probably would've been bigger if the release wasn't sloppy

and I think he did want FM to be a hit, there a clean version, a music video, it just got stepped on, and was probably a little too long

I just can’t ever imagine having my musical feelings and opinions be determined by the actions of other people

Kendrick is great but yeah I feel OP

Drake made fire and desires and teenage fever so I thought he could make a great rnb album. I was wrong. I know

feel u op. such a stale convo

nigga said feature terrorism like that whole album isn’t carti being an audio terrorist

womp womp

hilarious that so many people feel this way

how you so uninspiring that people get tired of you winning after12 months lmao

thats what happens when you power your success off hate instead of love

Kendrick features on Music weren’t even bad though. Good Credit is tough and always has been.

This ain’t a Goosebumps case

Goosebumps feature wasn’t bad?

Trippin

music sxn so ass now how did this stupid ass thread get 11 pages

I don’t believe in the feature narrative against Kendrick for the most part though

he inspired you. what would you post about/make threads about if the kendrick drake beef didn’t happen?
