Kendrick sucks ass bro anyone who listens to his s*** seriously is a loser in real life 100%. Now can we stop talking about that alien voice torture music creep and lock in… ICEMAN NEXT WEEK
Kendrick got some bops
what do you think Not Like Us even means? you talked about media literacy but can’t see how the entire beef was attacking his character as someone who grew up with a white mom and grew up outside of the states.
so openly trying to separate an us vs them to make him seem not legitimate in the space and culture he operates in
Not Like Us as a phrase has numerous meanings on the song.
The first: attacking his character and morals when it comes to women and the people he chooses to keep around himself. He alleges that he is predatory with younger women and also associates with people who are predators, and mentions how he did Cole dirty in the beef and also f***ed his mentor's girl while he was locked up.
The second: arguing that he doesn't value hip-hop the same way Kendrick does. He brings up Drake's use of recreating Pac's voice with AI as an act of almost sacrilege.
The third: saying that he poaches from prominent rap scenes in the culture. He asserts that Drake only uses Atlanta artists for financial and cultural benefit, and that he uses these artists and throws them out when he has no further use for them.
There is absolutely nothing on the song that suggests anything about the color of Drake's skin having to do with why Kendrick believes these things about him
No one said saved. I said helped? would’ve certainly helped more than the division caused by the beef.
these aren’t controversial takes in the slightest. I don’t know how you in exchange think that the beef helped hip hop at all
helped vs saved sounds pedantic. but sure, let me re-ask, how would've a Big 3 collab HELPED hip hop to be in a better place than it is now? Cole and Drake still collabed and I don't think it really helped anyone outside of those 2.
the beef helped hip hop because it objectively made "hip hop had a massive culturally relevant moment in 2024" a true statement. Without it people could argue hip hop fell off years ago. You guys are trying to erase that.
It's not the Big 3's fault s*** is dying. At some point people gotta realize labels + streaming have created an unsustainable environment.
Shaleirose will never change his dumbass opinion. These arguments every day are deadass pointless.
Until Jay-Z beef gets brought up
my brother who's in his late 30's says he thought the beef was over when supa ugly dropped and stands by jay winning even if the consensus was different it was interesting to hear

You’re right brother.
We can cook those kbots some more tomorrow. They always come back for attention
You’re a Kendrick d***rider taking about “conversations” lol. Go to his sxn then
you cannot rage bait me :)

It’s the fault of the new gen artists for not wanting to carry the torch. They’re cool in existing in their lil bubbles and making money off of rap. They’re don’t love it
Why are kendrick stans camped in this thread every single day and using it as a chat thread
You’re right brother.

They swear he’s soooo great and its crickets in his threads. No one actually listens to that bullshit. Not even them, they say they like it to not be “normie.”
Then stop coping for him
I was just describing how the situation will probably play out when the Iceman sales drop. You are just being hypersensitive to anything that even could be perceived as a slight to Drake when its not
Until Jay-Z beef gets brought up
Nas has made better recent music so people don’t really think of beef
Why are kendrick stans camped in this thread every single day and using it as a chat thread
Its so annoying bro
Why are kendrick stans camped in this thread every single day and using it as a chat thread
This the new beef thread for them that’s why lol
Let me sum this up for you since you can’t (or refuse) to understand what happened
Kendrick questioned another mans place in the culture because of his actions. It has absolutely nothing to do with skin color
Do you think “They Not Like Us” means they’re not black?
You (as a white person) then took that and started trying to weaponize race against Kendrick to delegitimize his character
yeah this could be true but you are simultaneously ignoring all of his attacks on Drakes status as a mixed man who isn’t from the U.S.
I think “they not like us” perfectly encapsulates what dot and his fans think
you can’t be in the culture if you don’t have this moral high ground and self sucking over intelligent perception of self. you can’t be not american and you definitely cant be mixed because that invalidates his entire experience and legitimacy.
but i didn’t make this observation solely myself. One of my favourite accounts in this space Django went way more in depth
No one here genuinely dislikes Kendrick’s music. Just rational people who saw him make 3 classics and then devolve into this garbage.
Damn is one of my favourite albums of all time
"favourite"

exactly. it's bigger than this stan s*** but that's exactly what certain users itt are trying to turn it into to.
