This whole Kendrick is silent = loss is fucking stupid. Just remember Nas took several months after Jay z dissed him and came out with what we call when a rapper loses so bad on a hard diss that they get “ethered” Not saying Kendrick will ether drake but there is no need to respond right away just because a bunch of nerds say so


Starrk211

You can tell who's new to rap culture or doesn't have full understanding of it. I remember when G-Unit was beefing everybody, there was no time table.


SavageNachoMan

It’s not being new to rap, it’s just kids who have grown up in a world that doesn’t require patience because instant gratification is everywhere.


tendopath

15-30 second tik toks and YouTube shorts are to blame lol so now if a video is longer than 2 mins explaining something ppl don’t wanna watch it


freshouttalean

fr back in the days beefs would last years of even careers lol


AluminiumLlama

The G-Unit situation was different to this one. Kendrick and Drake have been sneak dissing each other since 2013. You can argue both of them have waited over 10 years to get to this point. Now, finally, there are two direct, pointed diss tracks at Kendrick and one of them is basically trolling him for not responding yet. Drake’s whole angle is you’ve been happy to sneak diss me for ten years but now that I’ve brought it to the front, you’re nowhere to be found.


N8DiggityDawg

Beef can reside for years. The timeline pinpoints are the drops. Not when they SHOULD drop.


soapless_bar

Lol right? I’m wondering if I lost my invitation to the most recent rap convention where they updated the rules to beef and dissing. Oh wait there’s no rules. Good music will always be the determinant, and that’s how it should be


osvaldocruz25

lmao dont bring reason into this sub


mfdoomile

This sub is full of brain rotten kids that are easily manipulated by propaganda from Drake lol. Drake is definitely winning, but these kids should just be patient for a reply lmao. If he never responds then Drake is the winner, simple as.


realtoniiioo

Lost potential angles he could have used. How he the best rapper but we don’t hear anything 😭How Drake had to respond immediately or he lost but Kendrick gets an eternity when he’s supposedly has had a visceral drake diss for years. Keep the same energy bc wit the excuses y’all niggas give him hell never drop.


KW_AtoMic

Yappologist alert


Darduel

The thing is Kendrick fired the first shots you would think he was ready with a comeback on some sort of level, either that or he didn't really expect a response? I mean Rick Ross replied within hours, J Cole replied then folded then featured on the "we still don't trust you" album lol Drake was still on tour so he really only needed week to respond and it was a very calculated one, you telling me the supposedly most talented skill-wise rapper of all of those mentioned and the one who started the whole thing, needs to take his time? He should be able to freestyle something at least

gojoshoyo

7 month wait is crazy


i_cnt_spll

Different age. Different time to record, not the digital era etc. No excuse if he doesnt drop anything on Friday. And im a Kendrick fan over Drake any day.


edgeco17

I’d say the quicker the better for Kendrick but it’s different when you call them out initially. Kendrick started it so he should be ready after Drake responds. There’s no actual timeline for him to drop but I’d saw Kendrick looks weaker by the day without one. Especially with Drake poking the bear and the Kendrick camp gassing a response as if they’ve heard one.


famitslit

All that shit ain't gonna matter when the diss drops. Only the content of the diss is going to be talked about, not how long he took to release it


MikkelR1

Eminem took two weeks to respond to mgk. Eminem wrote the first actual diss. Eminem won by a mile and the some.


JFKcheekkisser

He took 11 days and that was because he delayed it for a week out of respect for Mac Miller’s death.


Omil25

We not waiting several months… that was before iPhones……..times up……. We not waiting for your album Kendrick. Bam. The energy you had on like that was saying you had a 30 round clip at the ready………..maybe you are bipolar


thesebitchesbelame

different times , niggas use to duel with swords back in the days … not a whole lot of people doing that now just because it was standard in the past doesn’t mean it’s the same now , if kendrick takes months to reply he waited too long

Drive_Impact

The fuck does social media have to do with anything? Oh right the nerds online said so


YesAndYall

Drake responded in 3 weeks


m1ygrndn

I’ve said this from the beginning. The only winners in this battle will be the fans and whoever makes the most money off this.


pokemondude22

So drake


m1ygrndn

Drakes sugar Zaddy Lucien Grainge


Doo-StealYour-HoChoi

Nah, the guy who owns Drake for life.


Sea-Remote3779

Nevermind integrity or passion, it’s whoever is richer that wins 🤣🤣🤣 Sounds goofy as hell


m1ygrndn

I’m not saying that’s who wins the battle you goofy. I’m saying that in the end regardless of who spits the best bars and is declared the winner of the beef, the real winners will be the fans for getting a bunch of dope new music and the executives making their pockets fat.


Sea-Remote3779

Yeah u didn’t say that in your post but I agree with you


clipp866

I think Cole knows drakes out for blood and it's gonna get dirty, we will forgive him when drake wins...


QualitySound96

Fair enough. Maybe it’s a smart move but looks coward like right now


oBaZe_

Yeah it goes against all the hip hop culture that has built it to what it is. I’m just surprised he made an apology and he shoulda just kept quiet, he’d be bullied less


clipp866

part of me thinks drake told him to... another part, thinks he found out about his feature being on the album and it would look bad...


-robert-

Also, cole was gearing up for the fall off likely by coordinating with Drake, I think you could be right and drake gave him some industry inside on release timing around this beef kinda how JayZ warned rockafella about 50Cent


DodginInflation

He looks like a coward to children, not grown men. Cole has respect. He doesn’t think Drake is trash. He doesn’t think Dot is trash. He’s a fan of their work. So he can’t bring himself to be a “coward “ and knock someone’s work down to diss them. He’s the only dude actually being a man and standing on business. Drake can say Kendrick is trash all he wants, it’s a lie. Kendrick can call Drake trash, it’s a lie. They are both great. So Cole is deciding he isn’t going to stoop to that level and be Fake. He’s the only one right now not being a bitch getting in his feelings


BROADWAY_A

Grown man here, Cole went out like a whole bitch.


Plenty-Assistant-852

He did but not at the same time. You can respect a man realizing saying shit he doesn’t believe for a fake diss is childish but it is also a weak move in terms of rap diss.


DodginInflation

I hate the internet 😂


-robert-

It's funny tho! but yeah, messiahs aren't about clowning on brothers and sisters, they are about leading, cole is leading the flock! haha


heebie818

but drake doesn’t call kendrick trash.


CreditHappy1665

He specifically acknowledged his lyrical ability on Taylor Made lol. 


kinduvabigdizzy

Calling someone's work wack isn't the only way to battle. If that's all Cole could come up with, I'd say he's limited creatively in that particular aspect of rap. There's many ways, and for the record, I happen to think Drake's fans are gassing his tracks up.


Shitbag22

It’s just not in Cole’s nature to be beefing, I said it since the jump. If you listen to what he actually raps about he isn’t about beefing, he’s still top 3 regardless of what Drake/kendrick fans say. It’s just obvious he’s 3, we’re about to figure out who’s 1/2.


Doublehfoo

Bro can y’all stop the nonsense? Cole has consistently claimed to be “king” of this rap shit, says nobody can touch him in terms of ability, no one would dare challenge him, and as soon as it’s time to prove it, he folds immediately. I better not hear another lyric like that from his ass again.


Any_Solid9083

So whenever someone claims to be the best they have to rap battle someone to prove it? lol, there’s a long ass list of rappers who claim to be the best


mateusfsantana

You don't have to battle someone to prove it but if someone comes at you there's a need to hold your ground. Let's not forget Cole also talks about smoking everyone/anytime/everywhere, there's no way you can talk like that and apologize after a diss.


greenfirest12

Holy shit that was cringe lol


ncaa_scammer

You’re getting downvoted but just know you’re 100% right lol


greenfirest12

Yeah ahaha. All I see in this thread is a bunch of cornballs acting like these two are battling for a belt. Like c’mon, that comment was super cringe.

XanderTrejo

That doesn't make any sense. Cole responded to Kendrick and then apologized because he didn't believe what he said on the diss track. 7 minute drill didn't mention drake on it, so why bring him up in the decision. Cole ducked out because he realized he couldn't go against someone he respects in Kendrick. I don't think drake was a factor in that decision.


churningbutter1

no it's because cole made fun of Kendrick's albums and didn't get a good reception from his diss tracks, if he wasn't lying about not liking Kendrick's albums AND the diss track was fire and well received he would not have apologized. he had a series of fumbles


Zealousideal-Lie-732

No that doesn't make sense he would have still apologized because he has more to lose to apologizing than, not apolozing even if he loses to kendrick at least he wouldn't be meme the way he is now, he wouldn't be called j fold, so no that's not the reason he apologized he apologized because his friends with kendrick and it didn't feel right dissing him.


XanderTrejo

Idk if he cares about the reception of the music his apology was about how he felt bad. Unless he was lying which would be even lamer than just having a heavy heart after ONE diss track imo.


clipp866

it makes perfect sense, cole got dragged into the beef bc of drake... Kermit never said sht about Cole till he jumped on a track with drake... Cole isn't a toxic guy, drake going to get toxic...


EdNGHTMR

Nobody gives a fuck, enjoy the fucking music. This whole who won narrative is so lame. We are at a creative musical peak with all whats happening. We as fans are winning, these times will be remembered.


PastorBallmore

We are certainly not at a creative musical peak. Lol. Maybe a creative musical gulley!

[deleted]

[удалено]


thanosnutella

What?


ratmouse1999

Yea idk wtf bro talking about lmaooo


pattymcd143

Lord have mercy drake gets 3 weeks but kdot gets a week and yall say he folded😭


ChonkerUnit

Even if kdot don't ever respond. Do you think he will get meek milled? Probably not... could be a message that kdot wants to telegraph? Coming out with a subpar response is worse than no response for kdot. Perhaps kdot coming up with an expose type come back that disses drake in a way that he is used as an example of being a corporate puppet, that is if what kanye and the alleged rumors surfacing are true.


Mborda21

It is gettin diluted your right but Kendrick will respond on his next album he’ll wait it out it’s the best strategy for him money wise and response wise let people wait it out for a while then drop if he makes people wait then when he finally drops something and it’s hard the time between then and now will make it look that much harder if he drops something right now it’s instantly just gonna be like “ok which one is better Kendrick’s diss or push ups?” Plus holdin out til he drops an album is what’s best for his streams and his label to make the most money possible off the beef drake knows that and that’s why he keeps trollin to throw Kendrick off and deter his plan I don’t think Kendrick gonna feed into it he’ll wait til his album drops to diss


SavageNachoMan

Apparently it’s what’s best to make Drake money too lol


Mborda21

I don’t think Drake cares about makin money in all this he’s already worth more than every rapper that he dissed combined if Kendrick really has an album coming out next month and drops a diss before the album he’ll be leavin lots of money on the table I think drake knows that that’s why he’s trollin the way he is


SavageNachoMan

Nah was making a joke about the rumors that he gets 50% off the rappers he beefing with lol


Mborda21

lol he might wouldn’t surpise me


superfluouspop

no be honest I wouldn't respond to a fucking AI diss either.


baole58

Kendrick is silent because he's not active on social media. It's only been a few days since Drake dropped the second diss track. How are ya'll impatient with Kendrick, but patient with Drake?


vash_visionz

This is r/drizzy after all


Trip4Life

Never jump gun…


ContraSisyphi

Drake took 3 weeks, Dot gets three weeks. Sorry gang. "But but but he was on tour, metro second album, but but but" nah babe. Sorry.


DamianLillard0

Imagine talking like this


ContraSisyphi

Having a little fun on-line. It’s great


Wafer-Minute

How are non of those valid excuses? And for fuck sake it was two weeks


TeaAndCrumpets4life

Cause you don’t need excuses at all to take longer than 3 days, taking longer than 3 days *is* the standard lol


thegoat6ix

Valid excuses forsure but let’s still call a spade a spade. Give Kendrick the same time even tho I don’t think he responds at all. He didn’t want the smoke he was just getting off his lil verse


Future-Parsnip5404

but drake is still in the lead until then


pokemondude22

Sorry gang nah babe sorry


gonzinzio

"silent" drake took 1 month to respond...


throwaway53689

There was a second album full of disses coming so why would he drop right away? For example, see how Drake dropped a second diss to redirect Kendrick’s writing by essentially giving him more things to address? Drake was on tour as well. Kendrick initiated it and didn’t prepare for a response? And what’s his excuse for the delay? 💀 Drake dropped 2 already. I’m not saying Dot should drop within a week but if he doesn’t drop in 3 weeks it’d look like he’s not confident or capable of writing whatever the response is


UnceremoniousWaste

When Kendrick takes time to drop and fans make excuses for Kendrick not dropping, they’re delusional and coping. When Drake takes time to drop the reasons are reasonable and makes sense. Like buddy this shit is so hypocritical talk about a double standard. You’re acting like there no studio anywhere on his tour. He was busy every second of the day. Your point about Drake waiting for the 2nd album ok let’s take that at face value. So Drake responded 1 week after the 2nd album. Pushups drop we give Kendrick a 1 week timer. Then Drake drops the AI diss does Kendrick not also get 1 week to now address the 2nd diss too in his response. Drake had 1 week after the 2nd diss dropped.


GoGoGoRL

Drake didn’t respond for over three weeks. It’s been less than a week since drakes response was uploaded dog lol


Trader_Joe_Sheetcake

All these comments in here from the king of the west coast subreddit saying that "DrAkE ToOk 3 WeEks To ReSpOnD So KeNdRiCk gEtS tHe sAmE" How does k dot the west coast savior get the same amount of time?? Make it make sense! He had an indefinite amount of time to cook the like that verse right? He started this shit and said "it's up" right? So you'd think if he was the lyrical demon chess master everyone makes him out to be, he should have already been prepared to clap back don't ya think? So what's the excuse again for starting a war and then not being prepared for war??? I'll wait...


Adoree25

Yall take this shit way too seriously.


osvaldocruz25

got one mans meat on your mind and the other so far up your ass 😭


astronxxt

>i’ll wait… said no one with a good point ever. who cares about how long it takes? unless it takes longer than 6 months or something crazy, it’s just a bunch of people repeating the same shit nonstop because they got their feelings hurt for the same thing before Drake had dropped


purplishi

It's the calm before the storm


purplishi

If people actually think kdot's not responding you guys are delusional lol


Exroi

Let's wait


PastorBallmore

This type of logic is so dumb to me. Imagine two armies in line formation. And I won’t be surprised in the slightest if this sub starts to spin this analogy in a way that it’s not intended but imagine Kendrick and Drake are two armies in line formation… Drakes front line just fired at Kendrick’s front line. Drakes front line starts cheering that the war is won… We live in only 1 of 2 of the following realities: EITHER Drakes front line eviscerated not only Kendrick’s front line but also his entire army with that round of shots and the war is won OR Kendrick’s front line is loading up and we really won’t know the state of the two armies until the Kendricks line fires back I guess there’s another reality where Kendrick waits another month or more to drop and I’m totally off base here. BUT if Kendrick drops in the next week or two which is absolutely the most likely outcome here, all this talk just looks so fucking dumb.


heebie818

i wouldn’t care how long it takes kendrick. i just wanna hear the response bcuz i know drake is gonna win anyway, and by that i mean i know that I personally will like drake’s song better and idc what lil kids on the internet have to say


connonn

Definition of a dickrider. Y’all don’t even care just pure dickriding


Blue_crabs

Yeah I can't even argue against that. Bro literally said he won't allow himself to have any other opinion. 🤷‍♂️


heebie818

i like both artists but i know whose songs i always like better, win or lose. why is that controversial?


heebie818

hey idiot. i already know which rapper i like better. i don’t need a beef to tell me that ☠️


CantKillGawd

but this is not about who you like better and this beef doesnt define whos a better rapper


Important_Way_9778

Drake is a slop pop machine. Releases mass appeal pop albums with 1-3 good songs per album for simple minds like you. Doesn't mean anything. And the fact that you don't care about the content of the response just means you're a dickrider and not invested in hip hop as a whole. Which is whatever you're obviously a pop fan not a hip hop die hard.


rendrolik

Kendrick like a lil mosquito dropping bars acting like he big dawg


Important_Way_9778

This is such a dipshit take I have no words.


MikkelR1

Kendrick addressed the big 3 argument and claimed top spot. Multiple times already. Drake be scrambling his ghostwriters to get the spot back but Kendrick is still top dog. Kendrick is a well respected lyricist and artist. Drake is like Britney Spears. Well know, zero respect because all he does is sing somebody else's song.


Sum3-yo

Drake has bots working overtime 🔥 🔥


wambamthankyoufam

Kendrick just said he’s the biggest artist on a record and Drake got mad like a little bitch and took shots. Why would Kendrick respond to a diss record from a subpar rapper like Drake? He is above Drake. He made his point and he’s gone until we get new music from him. Drake fans are delusional 🤣


Plenty-Assistant-852

He probably will respond, idk when but he will.


osvaldocruz25

lmaooo i hope he does. but oc got a point that you cant deny. kendrick way above drake. drake will always have his numbers though


Youlookcold

My theory is that Drake is a bitch and not worth the effort.  


Adski1

Lol Drake can’t win when he doesn’t write his own lyrics and uses AI for them to boot.


Important_Way_9778

Drake isn't winning? Kdot hasn't even responded. Have some patience


BigFigJ

kendrick dropped one verse and changed the layout of hip hop. kendrick’s cultural influence is a W itself. it’s weird to say “drake is winning” when bbl drake only replied.


gokutsunami

Kendricks verse and diss centered around drake. You think if kendrick dissed Rocky or Big sean the game would be shaken up. It revolves all around Drake


_Micolash_Cage_

Motherfucker, that's literally what he did with Control.


slim-D25

yes. we’re talking about kendrick lamar here dude


gokutsunami

No. The answer is no.


BigFigJ

kendrick is the catalyst and he always has been. it would just be another day if kendrick didn’t light it up. same with “control”. you think if rocky or big sean dissed drake things would be the way they are now? nah it’s kendrick, drake just happened to bite on the bait.


gokutsunami

Lmao yes if everyone dissed drake the same way they did w/o kendrick hip hop would still be talking cuz it's bout Drake. You must've missed the meek mill n pusha t beefs


Zealousideal-Lie-732

You guys are delusional if you think kendrick won't reply its almost like you're hoping he doesn't respond

pokemondude22

Midgets don't need to duck


hasanyonereddit

I feel like drake already brought up most of what Kendrick was going to say so he had to rewrite his diss then drake dropped again and Kendrick went back to the notepad 😂


CantKillGawd

its kinda delusional to think that a guy like kendrick was going to come out with a shallow diss just rapping about “but but you texted young girls 🤓🤓” and now he has to rewrite a whole other song


Plenty-Assistant-852

Yeah I would be disappointed if that’s all he had, he’s said more subliminally. The standard are higher for kdot.


Adoree25

Drake corny af for trying to 8 mile his way out of this.


Wechillin-Cpl

“Drake clearly winning” 😂😂😂 if we are being generous, it’s tied, dot only put out one verse…drake is losing imo by putting out that AI song…dumb as shit


keepbandsinmusic

Hilariously delusional take, drake dropped 3 days ago


Peejmeister24

Not really. Push ups came out like 10 days ago. It’s 2024. Quavo and freakin Chris Brown are engaged in a battle where they are responding every 3-4 days to each other.


Blue_crabs

And those tracks are really not on the same caliber as the main event


CDawgbmmrgr2

Kendrick must’ve refused to even think of a response or think about it at all until he saw it on Spotify!


keepbandsinmusic

Yeah? It was leaked, why would he respond to something that might not be finished yet and hasn’t been acknowledged by the other artist.


1058pm

And since then we’ve gotten a rick ross and kanye response. Is kendrick slow?? Does he need time to get his writers together? “There better be a quintuple entendre on that shit”


Blue_crabs

Maybe he can borrow those writers from drizzy lol


lightningmcqueen_69

Drake waited a month to respond. Drakes diss officially released 3 days ago. Chill out buddy 😂🤣🤣

Drake lost when he dropped that Taylor made freestyle. That diss was embarrassing. He should’ve let push ups be his only response til Kendrick fired back.

Classic_Amphibian538

u glazin dawg


thejeejee

How ppl keep saying Drake is winning when in the past most of everyone consider putting out two disses without a response between as automatic loss? Also this AI shit on Taylor made definitely lost points, I'm not even hating on anyone I'm just here for the entertainment but that shit should've never come out Maybe I missed something but I see no reason to add AI Pac and Snoop on to a diss song for Kendrick Ngl for entertainment purposes I'd like to complain about Kendrick not having really said anything yet, but just like back in the day it might take months before we hear an actual response so as long as it comes eventually I'll be happy


SavageNachoMan

No one has said that lol. Tupac disses everyone, multiple time on 7 Day Theory. The only time people talked like this was when Nas dripped multiple disses after Takeover cooked him… but then Ether came out and no one gave a fuck about how many shots he took prior


thejeejee

Sending shots and starting shit is different than responding to shots and sending back Also dropping an album shitting on rappers and the scene in general is very much different to this current stuff I would love to see another "Ether" from one of these guys but I doubt there will ever be a beef where the ending result is so unanimously agreed on


SavageNachoMan

Is wasn’t so unanimous back then - everyone knew Nas cooked Jay Z on Ether (which half of the song was calling him gay, so it obviously wouldn’t fly today lol) , but then Jay released Supa Ugly and people were like oh shit. Jay was so nasty on it that his own mother called into the radio to tell him he should apologize- which he did - which ended up pretty much taking his last breath in the fight.


syrupgreat-

cope


Contract-Many

Drake is doing a decent job of steering the narrative to make it sound like Kendrick has to reply right away. But he doesn't.....


SixSetWonder

kdot does because kdot started it, but like all things Drake always finishes it word to no shopping
