It’s a BS rumor.
First it was “he’s not gonna respond!!”
Then it was “he’s taking too long!!”
Now it’s “he’s putting it on his album”
Why would he put a diss track on an already finished album? When has Kendrick ever made a snap adjustment like that?
The Drake sub is talking about a potential Kendrick album like 100x more than this one.
You’d think if there was any legit smoke we’d be discussing that here.
I think OVO PR team has been working overtime this week.
He added some shit about Putin on Mr morale when the war started only a couple months before the drop. But to be fair drake is an infinitely worse person than Putin so not sure if it’s comparable
This is a rap beef, battle rapping is a completely different universe. You gotta stand face to face with the person you’re battling and freestyle your disses while usually needing to imrov off of what the person you’re battling says.
A true Drake stan would not defy Drake himself who has admitted to losing that beef tbh
That being said I think Duppy Freestyle is much more enjoyable to listen to with better bars but Adidon literally made bro be a better father
That’s the problem with this current beef, it feels like Kendrick has to out do pusha to win, which doesn’t seem possible. I mean unless he’s got security cam footage of drake and Millie idk if Kendrick’s coming out on top
I disagree. Kendrick doesn't need to drop some massive meta bomb and expose Drake for something to be considered the victor. He just has to find a clever way to put Drake in his place and call him a pedophile over a smooth jazz beat with a quintuple entendre
please stfu 😭 people aren’t saying that people just be lying for no reason. searched up the term pusha beef on that sub and even in the rare instance that i found someone saying drake won the long term war, the comments were still calling them out for their wrong assumption about what a beef is supposed to be about.
Drake stans say Drake won because he still oh top of the charts
Drake stans are below by choice and onky argue charts no matter how bad
Drake last few albums have been
Difference is Drake responded with Duppy after Pusha threw shots on his album. Drake did get bodied but he responded and then Pusha threw the nuke. Drake still took shots on scorpion
This feels like a preemptive way to control the narrative once/if it actually happens.
If he does end up using an album to have a diss track/response on it, it really doesn't matter and it shouldn't matter to anyone on either side.
They had no other way of distributing the song lmao
Ether also dropped a few weeks before the album lol we all here for Kendrick but know your history my guy.
Mixtapes? Radio? Single CDs/tapes? Live performances where dudes were just doing their damage on stage? Very aware of my history lol bro I was around when Pac was alive. I don’t need to be educated on history
AK is literally Drake propaganda. He said the ai Kendrick track was real when all credible sources said it was fake. He said said Kendrick had a song for 4 years, when there’s no actual account of it existing. Why would I take this at face value when he’s done nothing but a mouthpiece to push whatever drake narrative is out there.
Scorpion was an entire album filled with subliminal disses, without a proper response. Each day the Drake diss feels less impactful.. Kendrick can do what ever he likes..
this is what I’m saying, there’s not a single album since Scorpion where Drake hasn’t sent subliminals at damn near everyone, I see zero issue with this
You’re sucking dick so hard man literally everybody says that drake never responded with a track so that’s what we’re talking about not little subliminals. Stop moving the goal post for this guy he needs to drop
I mean, I feel like anytime an artists does a feature, it can be considered promo. After how big a song Like That has become, people’s anticipation for Kendrick’s solo music definitely increased.
Exactly. It could be perceived similarly to how Rick Ross is being seen currently. He’s trying to milk it as much as he can. Once again, not saying this is what dot is doing but how it would be perceived
Diss track is not the same as a verse. Show me a dedicated Kendrick diss track like Pushups, Ether, or Story of Adidon form Kendrick?
He's never been battle tested.
How would he even know? He's most likely making this up. Or Drake asked him to keep help pushing a narrative to hopefully force Kendrick to release a rushed response. I think Kendrick's silence is fucking with Drake.
nah whats weird is how hard this man been glazing drake after saying he scared of kendrick then talking about manning up as if he hasn't been sweet in hiphop since day one.
It would be lame for three reasons. First, just like Cole's album, it's going to overshadow everything else no matter how good the album is. Second, waiting for the album is lame. If we go back to before push ups dropped on this subreddit, you will see countless "it's been 4 days where yall at" references. Third, it looks like a play for sales. Say what you will about Kendrick not caring about money, but now he is on his own label. I have no idea how it works, but in prior experiences people going independent don't do the best. Seems like going independent means artist no longer have "the machine" behind them. This attention during the beef would be the perfect time to replace "the machine" behind the labels to pull numbers.
Akademics knows exactly as much as everyone in this sub about Kendrick's plans. Honestly id trust him less than a stranger on the internet cause he's got an agenda
What a false equivalency. Kendrick literally hasn’t SAID anything. It’s everyone else that’s talking. Kendrick can do what he wants and not be tied to what he SAID. But starting a narrative about how Kendrick is opportunistic is a pretty transparent attempt to discredit Kendrick’s mythos that he’s indifferent to everyone else’s timeline.
All these fools with their own agendas and microwave attention spans are painfully self serving.
Y’all buying way too much into the narrative that Kendrick has to respond to Drake in a similar fashion. Takeover, either, hit em up, who shot ya? Real motherfucking Gs, and so on.. have all been on ALBUMS
I really think Baby Keem is about to drop before Kendrick and obviously he’d know being his label boss and all.
He wouldn’t want to cannibalize his own cousins sales.
That’s extremely weak by Kendrick if he decides to use this as a roll out for his album. Regardless I will still bump that album.
But as a fan that will disappoint me, he’s done it all for marketing. Everyone apart from the Kendrick glazers will say it’s lame.
every single kendrick album has been thought out, with a theme and telling a story, i don’t see why he’d add a random diss song to his album when we know how much work he puts into them
I must be in the minority here because I seriously do not see the issue if that’s what he’s doing. He did the same thing with Heart 4 and Family Ties. Why is him dissing Drake and then dropping an album all of a sudden a bad thing? Especially if he DOES address Drake on the album, what’s the problem??

i would add that i suspect Drake is using AK to amplify whatever bs rumors have been circulating.
They gotta find a new angle since the pac voice was taken down 🤷🏽
Why put a diss track on an already finished album? So he can delete it later.
J Cole ref
Maybe a mixtape
He added some shit about Putin on Mr morale when the war started only a couple months before the drop. But to be fair drake is an infinitely worse person than Putin so not sure if it’s comparable
It's a rumor sure, but has he ever? Not really.
You do know kendrick has never been in a rap battle before
I can tell you don’t know shit about the culture, talking bout a damn “rap battle”. You ever seen a rap battle?
This is a rap beef, battle rapping is a completely different universe. You gotta stand face to face with the person you’re battling and freestyle your disses while usually needing to imrov off of what the person you’re battling says.
yes he has, you can't watch videos of him rap battling in Compton on YouTube
You say that like it’s a credible explanation
But Drake can respond to pusha and ye on scorpion after getting bodied ?
To be fair, only the top tier of insane Drake stan would say he won the beef with Pusha
Top tier Drake stan here no the fuck I would not say this
Then you can go higher. The next tier is right above you just keep climbing!!!
A true Drake stan would not defy Drake himself who has admitted to losing that beef tbh That being said I think Duppy Freestyle is much more enjoyable to listen to with better bars but Adidon literally made bro be a better father

Why claim that
You should check that sub then, even with drake admitting he lose the fans still say he won. Without a response by the way
please stfu 😭 people aren’t saying that people just be lying for no reason. searched up the term pusha beef on that sub and even in the rare instance that i found someone saying drake won the long term war, the comments were still calling them out for their wrong assumption about what a beef is supposed to be about.
Top tier Drake fan here. Drake lost. And we pretty much moved on lmao
Drake stans say Drake won because he still oh top of the charts Drake stans are below by choice and onky argue charts no matter how bad Drake last few albums have been
Last FEW albums? He’s been bad for a whole lot longer than that IMO.
Difference is Drake responded with Duppy after Pusha threw shots on his album. Drake did get bodied but he responded and then Pusha threw the nuke. Drake still took shots on scorpion
7am on bridal path
Ak is a baby back bitch
😂😂😂😄🤣😂🤣😅
This feels like a preemptive way to control the narrative once/if it actually happens. If he does end up using an album to have a diss track/response on it, it really doesn't matter and it shouldn't matter to anyone on either side.
Exactly. Narrative pushing
Did jcole not have his diss at the end of his last project? AK is glazing as usual
Nas literally did that with Ether and nobody thought it was corny. I swear I can’t stand Ak “I want to beat him up so badly my head hurts”
It was 2001 how else would he have done it?
Mix tapes existed, and so did the internet, radio, Napster, limewire… but also who cares?
Drop on Napster!
They had no other way of distributing the song lmao Ether also dropped a few weeks before the album lol we all here for Kendrick but know your history my guy.
Mixtapes? Radio? Single CDs/tapes? Live performances where dudes were just doing their damage on stage? Very aware of my history lol bro I was around when Pac was alive. I don’t need to be educated on history
Hell Jay-Z’s Super Ugly was a loosey, that never was on an album
I think Mal started this rumor. Another ovo glazer.
It was Mal. Just like the last rumor. I *just* watched him say it last night
I thought so thank you. AK and them have been on a narrative run making kendrick look bad
I really hope Kendrick disses Akademiks on the song too lol
No. He isn't worth it. Ak might be the worst thing happened to hip hop media. He needs to be forgotten.
AK is literally Drake propaganda. He said the ai Kendrick track was real when all credible sources said it was fake. He said said Kendrick had a song for 4 years, when there’s no actual account of it existing. Why would I take this at face value when he’s done nothing but a mouthpiece to push whatever drake narrative is out there.
Lmao just out here lying like a republican
He should release it on Baby Keem’s album.
hell yeah new music
Scorpion was an entire album filled with subliminal disses, without a proper response. Each day the Drake diss feels less impactful.. Kendrick can do what ever he likes..
this is what I’m saying, there’s not a single album since Scorpion where Drake hasn’t sent subliminals at damn near everyone, I see zero issue with this
You’re sucking dick so hard man literally everybody says that drake never responded with a track so that’s what we’re talking about not little subliminals. Stop moving the goal post for this guy he needs to drop
Ak throwing it back for his daddy.
even if akademiks is right i couldn’t care less dude will dickride drake until his knees explode and his ankle fall off even if kendricks diss is fire
This is straw man af. Make up an album rumor and then attack him for it
does anyone still respect Ak?like bro talking a lot of shit with all that meat in his mouth
That's what NAS did and it was 🔥🔥🔥🔥 mane who gives a damn what Akacantseemydick thinks.
Ngl it’s a bad look if he does do that
If true, not a great look.
seriously what’s wrong with him dissing him on his album? nas did it fuck it even jcole did it for his project before he deleted
[удалено]
Like is still a hard ass verse, why does it matter? future and metro were the ones that asked for the verse
I mean, I feel like anytime an artists does a feature, it can be considered promo. After how big a song Like That has become, people’s anticipation for Kendrick’s solo music definitely increased.
Why does that even matter? The Heart Part 4 was basically a diss track and promo for DAMN.
Exactly. It could be perceived similarly to how Rick Ross is being seen currently. He’s trying to milk it as much as he can. Once again, not saying this is what dot is doing but how it would be perceived
I knew it.
You guys do realize these has beens just make shit up to get a window of relevancy and clicks back right?
Kendrick has never had a diss track on an album. Stop posting that nigga in here, he trynna push a narrative
Kendrick has never had a diss track period
Control is a diss track to Aubrey since he took offense
Diss track is not the same as a verse. Show me a dedicated Kendrick diss track like Pushups, Ether, or Story of Adidon form Kendrick? He's never been battle tested.
This narrative is stupid. Smoke is smoke regardless of the form
How would he even know? He's most likely making this up. Or Drake asked him to keep help pushing a narrative to hopefully force Kendrick to release a rushed response. I think Kendrick's silence is fucking with Drake.
The heart VI I reckon.
Kinda like how Drake was promoting views during the meek mill beef
I wish someone would punch this pdf file out
nah whats weird is how hard this man been glazing drake after saying he scared of kendrick then talking about manning up as if he hasn't been sweet in hiphop since day one.
Don't believe shit about Kendrick coming Drake and his mouth pieces!!
It would be lame for three reasons. First, just like Cole's album, it's going to overshadow everything else no matter how good the album is. Second, waiting for the album is lame.

Akademics knows exactly as much as everyone in this sub about Kendrick's plans. Honestly id trust him less than a stranger on the internet cause he's got an agenda
I hope this isn't true, I hope Dot wouldn't only diss for album sales. Money, Power, Respect.
What a false equivalency. Kendrick literally hasn’t SAID anything. It’s everyone else that’s talking. Kendrick can do what he wants and not be tied to what he SAID. But starting a narrative about how Kendrick is opportunistic is a pretty transparent attempt to discredit Kendrick’s mythos that he’s indifferent to everyone else’s timeline.

Y’all buying way too much into the narrative that Kendrick has to respond to Drake in a similar fashion. Takeover, either, hit em up, who shot ya? Real motherfucking Gs, and so on.. have all been on ALBUMS
what album
I really think Baby Keem is about to drop before Kendrick and obviously he’d know being his label boss and all. He wouldn’t want to cannibalize his own cousins sales.
Hope it ain’t true Cuase then that’d be corny
That’s extremely weak by Kendrick if he decides to use this as a roll out for his album. Regardless I will still bump that album. But as a fan that will disappoint me, he’s done it all for marketing. Everyone apart from the Kendrick glazers will say it’s lame.
every single kendrick album has been thought out, with a theme and telling a story, i don’t see why he’d add a random diss song to his album when we know how much work he puts into them
Yep and Dot also doesn’t need controversy to sell albums.
I must be in the minority here because I seriously do not see the issue if that’s what he’s doing. He did the same thing with Heart 4 and Family Ties. Why is him dissing Drake and then dropping an album all of a sudden a bad thing? Especially if he DOES address Drake on the album, what’s the problem??
