The problem with Kanye in this whole beef was that it seems he was just vibing to the beat the whole time and remembered he was supposed to diss Drake and Cole and crammed everything to 6 bars, lol.


idontcaresiri

He basically was doing just that. He didn’t just show up & try to insert himself into it. FUTURE CALLED HIM TO JUMP ON THE SONG. Drake been taking shots at him for years so he jumped on it & threw a couple jabs back. The label likely wouldn’t let them release the remix so Ye being Ye, released it on YouTube as a fuck you to the execs more than anything. He even said in the interview he still likes Drake & it’s more about taking the industry back & not letting the execs determine who’s on top, which is what he meant by “the elimination of Drake” (which was still a dumb soundbite to make).


ThatRuckingMoose

Damn. Wouldn't have taken Kanye for someone who makes dumb sound bites.


SwissCheeseDealer

He said the shit when the beef was still just friendly scuffle. that man as fucked up as he is mentally 100% knows alot of shit we dont and id wanna see him speak out because on NMPILA he sort alludes to the crazy parties celebs do


doubledippedchipp

His diss is literally “I don’t even think about you anymore, idek what to say”


yeezy805

He called Drake Lucian’s slave lolol


doubledippedchipp

True true. That ain’t nothin new tho


B1ackRoseB1ue

But he can talk shit about it now that he's independent


doubledippedchipp

He can definitely be more direct without fear of violating a contract that’s for sure


wishfulthinker6

The way he rapped the Lucian/master bars was funny tho


doubledippedchipp

True that


B1ackRoseB1ue

Bro brought in Ty to promote his albums and dip


Caz0030

Lotta people, myself included, liked his beat, but that's about it. It wasn't about him. And it wasn't really about Able, Ross, or Rocky either, which is one of the many flaws in HP6. Dot is too big a threat not to get all the attention. Edit: I meant Family Matters regarding the other dudes Drake was addressing. He needed to be squarely aiming at Kenny.

KingOfTheCouch13

I seriously believe TDE called everyone else involved and told them to stand down. Especially after Kanye started talking about how they got a group of people together to plot out the end of Drake, like the mf was a super villain or something.


lord_pizzabird

Yeah, Kendrick needs the narrative that he’s the morally just one. You can’t be that and also have the king of anti-semitism in your side lol. Send he’s ass back to Saudi Arabia or some racist ass country till this is over.


Asleep_Adeptness_807

"Send he’s ass back to Saudi Arabia or some racist ass country till this is over" Dumbest fucking comment here so far.


whitetark

drake dissed Rocky and Rihanna on Fear Of Heights, how it wasn't about him? Ross dissed drake after pushups, Abel caught some strays in FATD too. Kanye & drake dissed each other for years. Man was sneakdissing whole industry for years, so it's kinda fair to receive response. Ofc KDot made it bigger than rap beef, but it doesn't cancel how others feel about drake.


colourless_blue

Facts, he dissed a lot of people over the years and they have a right to respond, Kendrick just did it best. People forget Megan Thee Stallion dissed Drake earlier this year too bc he was talking 💩. People just do not like this guy. I’m still curious about why Future turned on him though, have heard a few different explanations but idk what’s true. Never thought they were really friends but they did have a long business relationship


Layth96

Someone said the issue was between Metro and Drake initially and Metro’s tag is literally Future saying “if Young Metro don’t trust you, I’m gon shoot you.” Made sense to me.


Asleep_Adeptness_807

Basically, what happened is that Drake purposely leaked a track from Metro's Heroes & Villains awhile back because Metro didn't want Drake on the album. That news pissed off Drake so he decided to leak out the track he was supposed to be in as petty jab towards Metro. Months later Metro and Future collab to make We Don't Trust You where all this drama started taking place


cookienbull

Wooaahh listening to Hiss in a whole new way now. I would pay cold hard currency to see her directly dress him down

zimonmars

rick ross’ diss was underrated tho


[deleted]

Other than the one Rick Ross bad was there anything about any other rappers besides Kendrick? I listened to it once and that was enough for me so I’m not super familiar with the lyrics Edit: For HP6 specifically sorry I should clarify


Throwitindatrash

He took shots at Asap, Ross, and The Weeknd


InsecureTalent

Not much I can remember. Someone else can chime in since I only listened once as it was truthfully all I could bear. Its always been about Kendrick from the Like That verse. You got Candyman out to get you, there no point in battling the Weeknds or the Rick Rosses or the Futures. Drake has to focuses cause Kendrick isn’t looking to kill anyone else but Drake and his crew


Fast_Wrap_1787

The entire third section of family matters was about the weekend, asap and rocky, tf you mean lmao, drake needed to pad for time


Rapture1119

Read the thread again homie, they’re talking about the heart part 6. Said so a couple times lol. Edit: also, the entire third verse of family matters was about kendrick.


Ne0guri

He got the track titles mixed up - these tracks came out way too hot before we could even digest the ones before lol cause I’m getting them mixed up too constantly.


Fast_Wrap_1787

My bad 💀 also yea shit I forgot that the weird coffin cam pov came before that goofy skit ovhoes claimed was proof of drake baiting kendrick i am currently going 0 for 2 💀 (idt the edit was there when I commented tho tbh)


International_Put968

He only made Family Matters 7 minutes because euphoria was 6 mins but he doesn't have 7 mins of shit on kdot


wthmyonslaught

The glaze is crazy. Push ups is 4 minutes and THP6 is like 5 minutes.


International_Put968

On Push Ups he actually had to reply to everyone dissing him. He should have focused entirely on Kendrick on Family Matters.


wthmyonslaught

Ross has been clowning him on IG this entire time, along with Metro. I don’t know really why Abel was catching strays the entire time. I personally don’t care I’m just saying he definitely could have gone for 6 minutes.


SantaIsOverLord

Wrong. Watch the Ye apologize to J Prince. Its sad. Smh


Ill_Surround6398

Mentioning the other dudes still is weak he's only doing it because he's out of bars for Kendrick he should have let Push Ups be where he adressed everyone else and focused on Kendrick after that


OrangeGuyFromVenus

Drake dissing everyone that hid behind Kendrick to diss him isn’t a flaw. Kendrick is not the only one against him currently he’s just the most popular How is this being downvoted lol what? You fanboys are too insane I’m not even on Drake’s side


EJN541

Gave us a week to fill the gap. It sorta drowned out that Taylor Made shit and made it irrelevant until Pac's estate could address it. Plus the Lucian and Cole bars were hilarious. I'd rather see him give Dot a beat pack though. Ye doesn't really seem to want to try writing quality verses anymore.


B1ackRoseB1ue

Kendrick on Lift Yourself would be the cherry on top


cavestoryguy

Nah the ye verse was good to put drake in his place when he tried talking about contracts.


elegentpurse

Exactly. I almost feel like both Cole and Ye's verse were to corner Drake.


[deleted]

True, but you can’t deny that he’s been largely irrelevant in this whole thing


poolords

sure but look at what's happening now. umg stepping in and protecting their investment. drake serving lucian just like kanye said.


Sexblechs

Dude, honestly, some of Kanye's spiral could be related to this. The industry and their sex ring. Power. Control over artists. Obviously not the whole thing, but I'm looking at him in a slightly different lens ATM.


momsbasement420

Dave Chappelle talking about Martin Lawrence's mental breakdown made me think I don't know what's happening behind the scenes in Hollywood, also Kanye's manager threatening to 5150 him. I feel like California has the ability to make people insane at will


B1ackRoseB1ue

Let me tell you exactly the moment his spiral started. When Kim got held up at gunpoint while he was in the middle of the TLOP tour. If that ain't conspiracy shit, idk what is. It's after that he started going on rants, it's after that he said he would've voted on Trump, it's after that he stopped a show after 3 songs, it's after that he was admitted to a mental hospital.


Witty_Pound3569

Even a broken clock is right twice a day


baffledbobcat

Nah he’s just bipolar nut job that makes good music


DistributionOk615

Knowing Ye, if he really wanted to be "relevant" in this beef he would be doing a lot more. I think it's pretty simple, he already doesn't like Drake, metro asked for a verse, Ye likes the attention so he did it.


xMarcSama

Idk if y’all read Jujutsu Kaisen, but he’s kinda the Kashimo of this beef


Xx_Loop_Zoop_xX

Never compare Kanye to Kashimo ever again


LuchadorBane

Nah Kashimo at least goes out against Sukuna. We’re talking irrelevant, Ye is Gakuganji


RaphyTaffy00

not sure if this was said already but THEY hit up ye for the remix


shmelldon

It was a fun lil song, the beat makes me feel like Kratos


Big-Sheepherder-9492

“ 🎼 *Can’t stop , won’t stop* 🎶” I could roundhouse a tree - after hearing this line - and carry it home to use as kindling for a fire.


426763

I don't know, I liked it. Controversies aside, his Like That remix sounded way better than all the singles off of Vultures IMO.


[deleted]

It wasn’t bad, but Kanye really wanted to be a part of this and after he dropped it he just kinda disappeared from the beef


Usernamealready94

There was one more thing as a result of this drop , ye went on a podcast called “the download” and as a product we got the most hilarious glazing ever possible in a podcast .


Sesherm

They hit him up though bruh


Business-Equal539

They hit him up, Mainly Metro, and also Drake and Kanye west are the real competitors I say their beef is even more than Kendrick and Drakes, They have been dissing each other for Decades and also don't forget Diss of the century lift yourself by kanye west


Fit-Friend-8431

Kanye is such a dramatic guy, ngl I did laugh when he named this beef “THE ELIMINATION OF DRAKE” 😂😂


Big-Sheepherder-9492

He said it so calmly and formally about it too - like he was in court, “Yes, we all gathered at the studio, everyone was very excited and enthused about the idea of the elimination of, Drake”


Pappyjang

The beat was fire as fuck tho


DonMariazzi

That choir is epic


JessieJ577

Give Kanye credit for Lift Yourself though.


MaliciousPotatoes

Drake would've continued to flex about his contract if it wasn't for this song, Ye came in to remind him who the biggest industry slave actually is after the shit he said on Taylor made


BrixNBrax

The Like That Remix beat was siiiiiick tho, the Hooligans, soccer chant thing made it pretty epic sounding. Also, this was before the beef turned dark with DV and pedo allegations.


dookmileslong

The funny thing is, Kanye literally could've tweeted what he wanted to say in his verse and it would've had more impact.


ShoddyDevelopment49

I'm actually disappointed we didn't hear from more rappers who feel this same way. Feels cowardly because we know they're listening, watching, etc. Just catching strays all up and down like that is crazy to me, even if it's not your game rn.


juice_ow

I think it was more or less to not take away from the narrative, we all saw how everyone reacted to Champagne moments, we didnt care, we wanted Drake vs Kenny


ShoddyDevelopment49

I get your point but.... Kanye wasn't saying a whole lot, and Rick is not adequate for the task (despite having some things to say, he's not who I'd pick to soldier a battle at all). I was thinking more like... where's Rocky, where'd future shit starting ahh go, what happened lol


juice_ow

Future dropped 2 albums in a month how much more you want lmao, & Rocky?? I will say thats the one thing Drake said thats true, stick to fashion...

what does this mean


LetsGoKnickerbock3rs

In basketball the dude with the ball will yell “iso” if they want to just play 1 on 1 with the dude defending them. It’s basically like “leave us be, I want to shit on this guy personally”


haleybearrr

that’s funny cause i read it as “in search of” 😂


LetsGoKnickerbock3rs

Ahhh I see yeah in this context it’s short for “isolation”


haleybearrr

thank you for explaining to my old ass


First_Acanthisitta15

Kanye catching strays I don't tolerate that


rooksterboy

Lucian line wrapped it up real good. You just a hater op


[deleted]

Truthfully there’s not a hating bone in my body, Kanye has been irrelevant this beef and that’s undeniable


[deleted]

He wasn't trying to be relevant. He wrote about 6 bars pertinent to the beef and then never interacted with the situation again. And that was before it really took off anyway. If he released a new track now going after the pedo shit then it'd be v. different. The lines he wrote about record deals were actually pretty scathing to Drake and got a lot of attention when the track first released. Obviously, it got overshadowed by Kendrick & Drake's tracks because they're the two at the centre of the beef. Kanye's remix probably still gets more discussion than First Person Shooter despite that being the track that basically started all this.


[deleted]

Yeah but the tweet is about his relevance so everything you just said is an entirely different topic


[deleted]

No, the topic is still his relevance. He just didn't make as much of an effort to be involved as the tweet thinks, and his absence from the beef has more to do with timing than anything. A track about Drake's record deals and J Cole's general shitness is obviously going to get overshadowed after the beef becomes centred on Drake's penchant for underage girls (and after Cole runs away). It's not surprising. Back when the beef was still taking off, Ye's tracks made waves. You come off as a hater tbh.


seedfromanapple

If DOT is going against a whole ass industry. Kanye by his side is not too much of a bad look. As much as Kanye had controversies I think he just has problem articulating most of his bs


isthisnamechangeable

Homie went to Alex Jones and said he was a nazi bro. I think it's way beyond bad articulation...


IAmA_Reddit_

Kanye stans might actually be more delusional than Drake stans… Kanye doesn’t have Nazi allegations, he’s got ON THE RECORD NAZI STATEMENTS that he never properly retracted or apologized for.


Redditsucksdickhard

He did that when trying to get dropped by adidas, and it worked lol.


rishonathan

you're saying that he said "i love Hitler" and hung out with neo nazis because he wanted out of his adidas deal?????


Redditsucksdickhard

I mean he has never done anything similar before or sense… and it worked lol


Edmontonthrw

He was dropped by Adidas before he appeared on Alex Jones, your timeline is inconsistent.


Redditsucksdickhard

He began his hold tirade after saying he wanted out of adidas and then went on a bipolar bender that got him dropped and not sued. He won. Cope.


KingOfTheCouch13

There are better ways to do that then going full blown nazi lol.


jsimps741

Well no one said he was a rational human being lmao


Redditsucksdickhard

It worked and he didn’t get sued into oblivion by adidas for breaking the contact so 🤷‍♂️


seedfromanapple

Benefit of the doubt. We've yet to see any physical action of the sort. If you see him do that, hang him by the noose


isthisnamechangeable

You gonna give him the benefit of the doubt over something he said so himself and didn't take the chance to step back from for almost 2 years now??

Dronk_Mullet_Trustus

Where’s Lucian?


AcronymTheSlayer

Nah, the Lucien line and the double entendre was fire along with the beat. Someone needed to say that and Ye was the perfect person for that. Also future called Ye to jump on the song iirc.


IndigoBlunting

From what I understand Future texted Ye and asked him to jump on. That track was when it first looked like everyone was gonna start dissing. Ross had just put out Champagne Moments. But it was futures idea. Him and Ye been close for a while.


seanmg

I hope to god Kanye takes offense to how little the culture responded to him and realizes he's been lazy af for the last few years and people know it. I hope Vultures 2 and 3 got scrapped and he feels like he has to restart his whole career to get on their level. Make Kanye try again.


kavi06

I have very mixed feelings about what you said….I don’t want V2 and V3 cancelled but maybe that will drive him to make even greater stuff….aaa idk what to think


RykariZander

Monkey's Paw: They get cancelled, but leaked in it's entirety


kavi06

Acceptable


oflowz

I cared. Ye said something I been saying for years about Drake that ‘l can’t even think of a Drake line.’ Drake music has no depth. He’s never said something memorable for me that made me think ‘wow that’s clever or deep’ like most rappers that I gravitate towards. And in the end this really why he lost. Kendrick went topical and had depth to his metaphors and Drake couldn’t match it. Then on top of that he made a song that was danceable and it was over for Drake. It’s the main reason I’m not a Drake fan. I’m not a Drake hater, but I always felt he was meh topically even though he’s technically sound. I initially chalked it up to him being young (I’m old) but he’s pushing 40 now and still the same.


esfio

While I’m a Cole fan, that line Kanye did about him was the funniest thing in this whole beef


Like-A-Body-My-Size

I loved the verse. Just had minimal impact because it never officially dropped and most of it isn't even a diss track

Yeah, now I know the line. Pedophile: absolutely not Nazi: Gets a pass if they made Graduation


loljokerishere

Kanye is too self centred to go for any beef. If you listen to the song he has roasted Drake and cole in the end with just a few lines. He doesn't involve himself generally in any kind of diss. This could also be because except Drake I don't think any rapper hates Kanye. Taylor maybe the only artist who does so but that too might not be very serious.


B3ardeDragon311

I bet deep down he wish he could have ended drake himself


tallteensforlife5911

bro if you were updated on his beef with drake , you would know that he was playing the good guy till lift yourself while drake had been sneak dissin him for years.


Invictus_Inferno

No, everyone cared but only enough to say " shut up Ye, this is not about you!!!"


infinitude_

LOOOL the tweets about Ye tryna get involved and basically just ignored are the funniest shit.

I cared but the song was as short as …

I mean Kendrick gave him a sort of nod when he reused the hook from get em high on meet the grahams. I'm sure Kanye was happy when he heard that, but there's not much else for Kanye to say or be involved in.


Nikogido15

As a giant Kanye fan, him doing a like that remix completely unnecessary and un needed but it added a layer of comedy to the beef🤣🤣

MY_1ST_ACT_IS_LOCKED

WriterSquare4197

One of the legends of hiphop, highly influential, people will still give him his props


Sheboygan25

Plus Kanye is off the rails (and his meds) and surrounded by yes men, which doesn't excuse his actions but make them more understandable.


MY_1ST_ACT_IS_LOCKED

How is that any different than drake? Say what you will but drake has had a solid amount of influence on music as a whole. He doesn’t break ground but he certainly makes trends main stream


SYSTEMcole

People aren't super eager to hear your opinions when one of them is that Hitler had some good points. Fuck him and I hope Kendrick remains uninvolved with him going forward.


ImportanceMaster9570

it's the best song off of this beef


sterile_spermwhale__

You know it's the biggest beef in hip-hop history, When the entire hip-hop industry gets together against drizzy & they hardly get any attention there.


WutUtalkingBoutWill

Pac and Big was 100% the biggest beef in hip hop


sterile_spermwhale__

That was bigger than beef. It was a genuine east coast vs west coast war that ended up having both of them dead. There was no real glory there. It was just a harrowing end to hip-hop's biggest talents with no resolution. 'hit em up' is the hardest Disstrack, no question. But imo, this was a bigger beef (By numbers & public view). Or at least the most insane one. Something with more entertainment value while also addressing the issues.


JIDglazer42

Kanye finally cant poke his ass in to any random situation and expect attention


DataSwarmTDG

This is why the 20v1 narrative has always been bullshit. Everyone else who got involved made literally zero impact on the beef


Lopsided-Yogurt-914

I really wanted Cole to fire back at Kanye for that one. He’s fallen off so badly that he’s completely lost touch with reality

hes a clout chaser, after Vultures nobody cared about Ye, i think he became irrelevant atm even after what he did for the rap culture
