Jan 27, 2025 Kendrick would be smart to drop the deluxe the Friday before the super bowl. Then a music video for one of the songs a day or 2 later
Jan 27, 2025 Can any Kendrick stan explain to me why 616 in LA is not on spotify? I switched to Spotify few months ago (instead of just downloading s---) and I miss that song man
Jan 27, 2025 It was one of those songs only posted to Instagram. Kendrick and Drake both did it during the battle. One can assume the sample didn’t get cleared which is why it isn’t on streaming. It’s the same case with Watch The Party Die. People thought that was going to be on Kendrick’s album but it’s another Instagram exclusive, again maybe due to sample clearance issues
Jan 27, 2025 Shame really, cuz its probably my favorite song other than maybe NLU He flows like water man
Jan 27, 2025 I agree that he flows like water. The beat and that sample is super nice too, always gets stuck in my head. I think it’s an important song that got overlooked because of only being posted on IG and then the songs that followed shortly after. The whole thing was basically warning Drake and everyone of what was about to come later that day. The quickness of Kendrick’s drops after Drake’s basically confirms what he said in 6:16 in LA about having a mole in OVO. The mole was very obviously informing Kendrick when Drake was gonna drop and probably also what Drake was gonna say
Jan 27, 2025 The Drake mole angle was still a misstep my Drake in my opinion. Kendrick was calling him manipulative and he just further proofed it by not being real. Drake thought he did something but in retrospect, no one even cared for that angle. lol
Jan 27, 2025 The aftermath of this whole thing just proves that Drake lied about having a mole feed Kendrick false info lol. If Kendrick was right about one thing, it’s that Drake is a massive liar lmao
Jan 27, 2025 Master manipulator, but don’t tell no lies about me and I won’t tell no truths about you…. *Beat Drop*
Jan 27, 2025 Yeah stuck in my head too especially the part where he starts getting more agressive while stil sounding smooth af Tbh when the beef was over (not just this but any beef) bad diss songs lose replay value for me fast. With bad diss songs I don't mean bad disses, but music I don't enjoy. For example I don't listen to Rap Devil ever. It was a decent diss but dont like the song. Same w this beef; I got Fam Matters, Push Ups, 616 in LA and NLU on my playlist just as songs I enjoy a lot. Euphoria, Grahams and Taylor Made I don't but purely based on the music not the disses. U understand what I mean?
Jan 28, 2025 I'll never get over how Kendrick released them songs though. He dropped again...again s--- was insanity.
Jan 28, 2025 This was definitely planned for a while. It was way too strategic not to be. He beat Drake at his own game. And as Xzibit said recently, Drake massively underestimated Kendrick and so did a lot of other people. I remember some people really thought Kendrick wouldn’t respond. Kendrick used to participate in battle rap, this s--- is in his DNA.
Jan 28, 2025 Oh I agree it was planned. Still epic none the less. I won't be surprised if the next time Drake drops a album Kendrick got another in the chamber just waiting. Rather it a song or a full on album. Kendrick ain't letting up on Drake anytime soon.
Jan 28, 2025 Kendrick is a very performative artist so I’m sure the production will be the best possible.
