K.Dot kills it.

Great response from Kendrick.  This was well done.

This is pretty good. I honesty didn't feel like he had it in him but this is solid. I was worried before the beat switched up. Can't wait for Drake's response.

As a Consigliere tho, there are a few things I would have advised him not to say. I'm also concerned about potential issues between two street orgs as well as future LA and Houston issues. Over the past couple of years I have taken notice of people trying to put those two cities and those two orgs against each other. The Free Larry Hoover concert in LA really showcased the problem as people were openly drawing the line.

A good response… Ill preface my comments saying Im neither a big Drake or Kendrick fan….

For this battle round, Im feeling Drake is superior for innovation and comedy, and not to mention better production which literally sounded like a Dr Dre AI beat.  His aviator Howard Hughes lines were funny.

Kendrick came in with a sort of rambling long battle rap and dug deep at the Drakester pulling the racial card (Drakes mom is white). A solid effort but he could’ve tightened his response to 2-3 mins with much better production.

Imma get me a new suit for this

When's the funeral?

gd right..that didn't disappoint

Is this new?

I think it's all on par with Dre's gold standard and quality is the same as Chronic and 2001.  The only reason we can't regard it the same is because it didn't create a movement.  Like Chronic was a movement in music.  Because it was Dre's generation.  So it's impossible for him to do something like now when he is so far removed from the current youth generation that drives music and trends.   But he came as close as humanly possible.

Damn shame he never did a fuccin video or promotion.  I wonder if he made any bread off the album?

Good points.  I think it would've gotten a lot more attention if they did one or 2 epic videos: Talkin to my Diary and Its All on Me.

I was also shocked Mc Ren didnt have a verse on this album.  He woulda fit nicely on Issues with Cube.

Kendrick still got it! Fuck Drake!
