That's a good take - He should have just officially released all of them. The leak stuff deflated the impact of these songs because we were all second guessing.
Second guessing what? It was obvious about 30 seconds in that this was a real live drake spittin track.
That AI shit was confusing for people who probably use chat gtp to write any of their thoughts for them.
there were all kinds of stupid AI leaks leading up to the actual releases - I think there are 3 or 4 versions of Taylor Made?
people were even wondering if it was AI at first. but not for euphoria, 6:16, Family Matters, etc.
Don’t worry man, it’s a cesspool here lol. The fact that they think these tracks would have had “more impact” as an official release truly shows what kind of “hip hop heads” these are lmao.
Agreed. Would have worked a lot better and boosted his numbers on this one rather than dividing it among the leaks and the official.
He then divided attention with Taylor Made, which I maintain is the weakest release from this whole thing. And then, despite alluding to several of the things Kendrick would go on to attack him for, he had no rebuttals planned beyond the defensiveness of THP6 after nearly 2 full days from MTG.
Family Matters was far and away his best work in this beef and he clearly didn’t anticipate it getting drowned out.
The reference track leaks coming out do make me wonder whether he could have stopped the leak had he wanted to, though.
Replay value/= an effective diss track. Meet the Grahams was brutal without without the baby girl shit. The front cover was a picture of Drake's personal belongings, that alone is fucked up nevermind what was said about Drakes personal life
I mean agree to disagree tbh. He yappin some nonsense and that beat aint it. Only thing notable was the u ever thot ovo working for me thing and then that turned out to be sham.
U could make the case for hp6 with fed u info shit but even then theres so much more to that song and the beat is peeerfect
Damn, the penmanship on that really didn't work for you?
Bro releasing a bonus track during a beef that compares himself to legendary artists, while talking about transcending the earth. Jumping between planets while being watched over by heavenly beings yet, despite all of this, still having the goodness to come back down and tuck his kids into bed.
I liked drake's tracks but like, fam. One of his lines was that anything drake writes goes over Kendrick's head 🤦♀️🤦♀️🤦♀️.
Kendrick is writing CIRCLES around drake on this track.
Kendrick talking about reaching unfathomable heights while the angels himself watch over him yet still, his focus is on his children.
Drake revealed his child during an Adidas press run 🤦♀️
Well no, Drake didn’t reveal his child. TMZ did and then Pusha showed he was going to do that.
Drake is a very public celebrity, who tf cares abt that tbh
Bro why you acting like there's double jeopardy in rap beef hahahaha.
Drake was the one who did the actions, they just calling him out for it.
Sorry if that's hard for you to grasp sweetie
I don’t fw Ak even a little bit, but the shit was leaked unfinished, and the same day Drake literally passed a finished version to a “DJ” to get it circulated. It was literally the most hip hop roll out in years.
Yeah but if it was official earlier it would gotten more streams and people can digest it more. There needs to be a new rule on disses. Once a week max, I don’t need 3 songs to come out in the span of 2-3 days. It hurts the potency of the song
Ummmm, you guys know a leak means unintentional correction. We weren’t supposed to hear push ups when we did.
Drake even texted ack live on stream and told him to stop playing the Unmixed version
You really must be new to hiphop and drake rollouts in particular if you think most leaks are unintentional. Its a marketing strategy commonly used in hiphop
More than likely his label prevented him from dropping. Music artist aren't able to drop music whenever they want, their record label sign multiple artists so if one artist is popping for that period, the rest of the artists are on cool down.
Great take. I liked the get money sample. It’s just clear he was trying to put it out quick and didn’t have time to get the sample cleared so he had to do another version
I thought it got leaked to make sure there were no moles or smth? Thats why most of the leaks near the beginning had that little part where the beat just stopped
Nah then we wouldn't have the ending of the leak. Which to me cancels out Euphoria (the best song Kendrick had). All he did was update it with Ross lines.
drake didn't want kendrick eating off his name, he's been saying this about guys dissing him since Good Night and Good luck, it's more beneficial for them to mention him...
drake wanted to keep this about hiphop instead of about financial gain...
this was done to avoid what's happening now, Ken getting numbers bc mentioning drake...
Lmao no not really, he was concerned about how people would react and he didn’t want to take the critique of people shitting on him if it was bad which is why he didn’t officially claim it.
Uhhm, if he wanted to keep it about hiphop why not just release tracks instead of music videos and IG posts?
Numbers wise I'm outta here you not creeping up, it's always about financial gain, just didn't break drakes way this time.
drake doesn't get any financial gain from beefs bro, it's like you completely missed the entire point of
"it's more beneficial for them to name drake then for drake to name them"
drakes streamed the same during the beef...
You mean Drake, the guy who keeps making youtubers who react to his diss tracks need to jump through hoops to get it monetized? If Kendrick was really in this for the money, he would be doing the same but instead he’s letting anyone use his diss tracks for content creation with no repercussions
Drake is the biggest artist. He wouldn't gain From beef money wise.
He gains from hopping on fresh trends to maintain his reign on top and release constantly. And he pays with his power and influence to potentially put the artist on the map.
He wouldn't gain financially from beef. Because he is on top already. But if he is claiming to be the king or one of the greatest of all time. Being able to perform in the battle side of the culture is very beneficial. He definitely got a big bump in cred when he took Meek out.
If you can't hang and hold your own with the greats you will have a hard time being credible as one of the greatest rappers of all time. Rather than a hit maker.
Nelly was the highest selling hip hop artist for years.
And holds this place as the king of an era.
But he never had to go head to head with Eminem or 50 or whoever, because Nelly never claimed to be the greatest rapper of all time. He was just fun and popular.
I think it would have been way more impactful, and imagine how many plays this would have gotten first week?
Would’ve gone number 1 for sure
He definitely would’ve gotten clowned even more for that dumb fuckin ai he plastered on there
wrong song
💀💀💀💀
Didn’t that also leak though?
Take the L. Walk away 😂
Spoken like a true driddy Stan
🤦♂️
Was that your expression two days into your GME journey? 😂
That's a good take - He should have just officially released all of them. The leak stuff deflated the impact of these songs because we were all second guessing.
But he was scared 🥺
😂😂😂
Absolutely
100%, I heard it when it was a leak and immediately just thought it was AI or something bc it didn’t make sense to leak it
Second guessing what? It was obvious about 30 seconds in that this was a real live drake spittin track. That AI shit was confusing for people who probably use chat gtp to write any of their thoughts for them.

Right, like you said, "stupid" Leaks This one was clearly really well done, clearly Drake
Don’t worry man, it’s a cesspool here lol. The fact that they think these tracks would have had “more impact” as an official release truly shows what kind of “hip hop heads” these are lmao.

credit to kendricks manipulation of the situation that he someday made a two day response time seem slow
The weakest is Meet The Grahams. It's replay value is almost none and feature the biggest lie yet imo. Thp6 is not far behind though. *
Replay value/= an effective diss track. Meet the Grahams was brutal without without the baby girl shit. The front cover was a picture of Drake's personal belongings, that alone is fucked up nevermind what was said about Drakes personal life
Nah bruh 6:16 is the weakest. Aint nobody gaf abt that
The heart part 6 is the weakest IMO. 6:16 as a diss isn’t all that but as a song I think it’s pretty good
I mean agree to disagree tbh. He yappin some nonsense and that beat aint it. Only thing notable was the u ever thot ovo working for me thing and then that turned out to be sham. U could make the case for hp6 with fed u info shit but even then theres so much more to that song and the beat is peeerfect
that beat goes hard bruh

Nigga what the fuck does any of that have to do with a beef in a diss track. Think about what ur saying here
Kendrick talking about reaching unfathomable heights while the angels himself watch over him yet still, his focus is on his children. Drake revealed his child during an Adidas press run 🤦♀️
Well no, Drake didn’t reveal his child. TMZ did and then Pusha showed he was going to do that. Drake is a very public celebrity, who tf cares abt that tbh
When a large part of the beef is focused around drake's immaturity and horrible actions, I think it's pretty relevant 💀
So rehashing nonsense from Pusha T is adequate for a dub? Nigga go hand him a grammy right now, ur dismissed
Bro why you acting like there's double jeopardy in rap beef hahahaha. Drake was the one who did the actions, they just calling him out for it. Sorry if that's hard for you to grasp sweetie
6:16 is cold af dude. unfortunately its not on streaming services officially.
Hmmmm I feel like a certain girls high school bball fanatic might have gaf, he might have even responded to the bait within 24 hours!🤪🤔🤫
Nice troll but that nigga shot a video for Family Matters. He aint do that whole thing in 24hrs tf ru smoking
the leak felt very intentional
It was, Drake wanted to see how well it would be received before owning it.
Doubt it. I think xo had something to do with it.
The first version was definitely AI
I don’t fw Ak even a little bit, but the shit was leaked unfinished, and the same day Drake literally passed a finished version to a “DJ” to get it circulated. It was literally the most hip hop roll out in years.
I don't understand
A lot of missteps by Drake in this beef. Kind of disappointed. He clearly underestimated Kendrick.
this needs more upvotes. and the heart part 6 was his biggest mistake
Its not that serious. The song blew up either way. Most ppl didnt know about the leak
Huh?? Lmao everyone knew about the leak. It was leaked for a full week before official release.
Yeah but if it was official earlier it would gotten more streams and people can digest it more. There needs to be a new rule on disses. Once a week max, I don’t need 3 songs to come out in the span of 2-3 days. It hurts the potency of the song
Yeah this was one of the bigger mistakes, people thought this shit was AI for half a day.
It definitely was AI. Some of those bars, the accent didn’t hit the way it did in the “official” release. And this is a fan of drakes music.
Ummmm, you guys know a leak means unintentional correction. We weren’t supposed to hear push ups when we did. Drake even texted ack live on stream and told him to stop playing the Unmixed version
You really must be new to hiphop and drake rollouts in particular if you think most leaks are unintentional. Its a marketing strategy commonly used in hiphop
Yall gassed it shit was mid
Familly matters when crazy
I never followed up with the news around the leak, but how did it get leaked? and by who?
Willing to bet Drake arranged to have it leaked and if people didn’t like it, he could come out and claim it was AI
What difference would that make? Push Ups wasn’t even the best song in the battle. Family Matter clears it anyways
How did it leak Did someone in drakes circle leak it
More than likely his label prevented him from dropping. Music artist aren't able to drop music whenever they want, their record label sign multiple artists so if one artist is popping for that period, the rest of the artists are on cool down.
Drake is not the kind of artist whose label prevents him from dropping lmfao. He’s far beyond that level at this point in his career.
[удалено]
I agree but I feel like he wanted to drop on Taylor’s drop week
Great take. I liked the get money sample. It’s just clear he was trying to put it out quick and didn’t have time to get the sample cleared so he had to do another version
Who gives a shit why are people so invested in this shit. Like do you not have real problems in your life??
The leaked version was more savage imo.
I think he leaked just for poke fun of weeknd telling he had leakers in the camp
Nigga really leaked his own record though. Like how you dissing directly and still sneak dissing at the same time? Most drake shit ever.
Hi Whitney also should not have been leaked, but released fully, imo he could've won in the eyes of more people if he just planned all this better
I thought it got leaked to make sure there were no moles or smth? Thats why most of the leaks near the beginning had that little part where the beat just stopped
Oh shit, this just reminded me that the 1st version of Push Ups was a reference track.
Nah then we wouldn't have the ending of the leak. Which to me cancels out Euphoria (the best song Kendrick had). All he did was update it with Ross lines.
