It's clear that Kendrick really fucking hates Drake, but...
It really rubs me the wrong way that if he had the fucking "receipts" for all of this, he sat on it all until he could make a diss track.
Like, if Drake is a pedo who is grooming young women (that was clear before this anyway), isn't that a little bit more important than your ability to make a fuckin music track about it? Why would you sit on those receipts for so long instead of putting the motherfucker on blast when it happened? Why did you have to wait until Drake did a diss track first? It all feels so fucking petty and stupid.
We really do live in the worst fucking timeline. People would rather sit on criminal wrongdoing they know about to be able to use it to pump themselves and their record sales up, instead of actually, you know, helping fucking victims.
Kendrick didn't come out of it looking much better than Drake, in my opinion. They are both petty, selfish fucking twats who care more about their records sales than, I don't know, real people's real fucking lives.
So what exactly did Kendrick do wrong? Are you upset he didn't go to the police?
Beyond sitting on a crime instead of reporting it to police because he would rather put it in a song...
Using Drake's victims and their trauma essentially as props in his songs.
Going all-in on weird racist shit where part of his critique of Drake is that Drake is... half-white. Like what. the. fuck. Bringing back the worst of the Colorist shit that I remember from the 90's. Don't act like this isn't fucked up, it's massively racist of Kendrick and feeds into fucked up racist shit in the black community between "light skins" and "dark skins." This hurts the black community as a whole and has effectively said to any and all half-black-half-white kids out there that the black community does not accept them. I bet they love being not accepted by both whites and blacks! What the flying fuck man. Drake being half-white has fuck-all to do with whether or not he's a good rapper, and Kendrick is old enough to god damned know better.
But yeah let's boost some dumb racist shit because it makes us feel good about our chosen side.
Drake is not a rapper.
