drake and kendrick met in 2011 after kendrick's first album release
drake became friends with kendrick bc he was like "this guy has potential" and had kendrick be one of his openers on tour
kendrick had drake on his next album that won aoty
kendrick was featured on the song "control" where he names a bunch of artists and is like "i'm coming for your job" and one of them was drake, who was also the only one pressed about it
PRESENT DAY:
j cole featured on drake's song "first person shooter" where he says that himself, drake, and kendrick are the "big 3" of rap
kendrick features on future's album on the song "like that" where he says that there is no big three and it's just him (basically that he's better than both of them)
drake drops two diss tracks ("push-ups" which is just a general diss, and "taylor made freestyle" where he disses kendrick for featuring on bad blood and delaying his response to the first diss track because of taylor's album release. while also talking about how much he loves and respects her because he's non-commital like that)
kendrick drops his response, and it's a 6-minute diss that calls drake out for EVERYTHING. like using AI to write, mistreating women, being sexist, being canadian (馃拃), and a bunch of other stuff like he eats him up
drake drops a response that i hadn't heard of when first making this post so it probably wasn't very good
he drops a second response yesterday, called "meet the grahams" where he addresses it to different members of drake's family (including his son) dissing him for being a bad father, bad son, and bad example (eats him up again) (this dropped an hour after drake's which means he probably had insider information and is playing 4D chess)
we now await drake's response
kendrick dropped ANOTHER diss track called "not like US"
"why can't they just be friends" not in the homophobic way but in the "their platonic relationship in the source material is far more dynamic and complex than the sanitized personalities they gain as a result of shipping" way
