Basketball Player Michael Beasley Debates With Symba, Was Mad “Not Like Us” Was Popular Song

[tweezy]

Drake is black saying he moves like a colonizer is some none fba shyt.

Black Americans are all mixed due to the way we were created. . We were created in a very distinct way that is not like carriebean and south Americans. They largely brought men, 80%en for slaves in north America. When the British said they would stop international slave trading they then brought women to breed. This is different than other areas becJse they typically brought women and men and children from same unit and put them on a plantation.

From that history in the US if you are partially black you are black. If you are quarter black you are black.
This notion that has sprouted up that if you are mixed you aren't black isn't black american culture. So Kendrick was lame as hell for going that route.

You completely, COMPLETELY missed Kendrick's point...

It had nothing to do with him being light skin or mixed.

 

[MaNu Minu]

Anybody that thinks Kendrick's angle was excluding everybody of mixed race from the black community is fukking stupid.

I'm only seeing this on thecoli or drake fan pages

No wonder Drake lost that beef with such a dumb fanbase.

 

[spliz]

Drake was raised in a Canadian jewish community fam, he is culturally and ethnically jewish.


Says black slang is ignorant

Establishes himself as a rapper but can't even pronounce the word "nikka" without the hard R

Drake Says He Only Experienced Racism After Coming to America After Fame: 'I Never Really Notice Color'

Drake says he never experienced racism until he came to America when his music career hit it big. The performer made the revelation at a post-Grammys

atlantablackstar.com

Says he didn't experience racism til he got famous and came to the states....what in the fukk does any of that have to do with FBA nonsense, or even him being bi-racial? J-Cole and Drake have the same parental triangle when it comes to race...nobody is accusing him of being a colonizer or cos-playing Hip Hop, because he's not.

Anybody that thinks Kendrick's angle was excluding everybody of mixed race from the black community is fukking stupid.

There’s literal video of Drake. As corny as he was. When he was little. Rapping. Like it or not that lil nikka a student of the game which is why he been able to morph so fukking much. lol. And bro u one of the biggest Eminem fans on this site. Yet u calling Drake a colonizer? lol. Eminem literally has racist tapes out there.

 

[H.J.Duck]

Yea this was pretty good. Joe went crazy on this one too.

I still bump this and the song @SunZoo posted. Wake was dope too.


"So Aubrey when you sub real MCs you get murdered" line aged like a fine wine cos it's now happened 2 times after Budden said that, lol.

Joe BEEN exposed Drake but nikkas ain’t wanna hear it.

Budden broke it down on his podcast perfectly, with Meek the timing and person doing it was off (tbh Meek also moved terribly), and everyone sided with Drake. With Budden the timing could've been better but essentially it was "right message the wrong messenger". Pusha was more equipped to destroy Drake in a more meaningful way but still not quite big enough artist. With Kendrick it was the right messenger, the timing was better and he basically added on what Budden and Pusha had said/done.

 

[MaNu Minu]

We all know what Not Like Us did in REAL TIME. Hell its only been a year. Its definitely one of, if not THE most effective diss records of all time. Whether its the “best” is subjective but based on its impact, staying power, and immediate legacy its unarguably no less than top 5. A diss song is meant to demoralize, skewer, and destroy the opponent’s character. By Drake’s own court filings Not Like Us accomplished JUST that. He’s even scared to say Kendrick’s name out loud.

Nailed it.

I know east coast nikkas are hurt, Drake fans too, but it is what it is.

NLU has an argument for that #1 spot when judging things objectively.

AND the songwriting.

Kendrick checked every criteria. NLU was that good that everybody went crazy, even random grandpas that didn't even know who Drake and Kendrick were.

 

[tysigna]

NLU really destroyed both Drake and Spliz brain

 

[AlbertPullhoez]

NLU really destroyed both Drake and Spliz brain

Spliz just not a dikk rider. Something a lot of y'all nikkas got bad

 

[tysigna]

Spliz just not a dikk rider. Something a lot of y'all nikkas got bad

He's a hater and been insecure about Kendrick for years, it's well known on thecoli

He feels insecure about the rappers he dikkrides not getting all that success and praise

 

[derro13]

He is clearly not like 'us', yet you are constantly back against the wall for this nikka just to downplay Kendrick and the skill it took to make that song the way he did it. Lining up all those elements successfully is a skill.

This.

 

[Nuuko]

Kendrick is the first rapper to cover all those angles and different aspects/rules of songwriting on a diss track

Not Like Us is Hit Em Up on steroids...without all the flaws of HEU

Em is a native in the country and within the culture really, Drake isn't. He is an outsider by definition, raised jewish, a community well known for said behavior and this notion that Kendrick was calling him out based on the fact that he was mixed is a coping mechanism.

 

[JuvenileHell]

NLU is the GOAT diss period

 

[Don Snow]

Some of yall hate Drake more than yall love Hip Hop




No way yall really think “Not like us” is the greatest diss track of all time

 

[2ATMsYouSteppinOrWhat]

not like us is not harder than hit em up

and thats how he washed drake

he made a HUGE HIT SONG… that just happened to be a diss towards drake

that hard shyt… thats what euphoria was

i really like the song… but its not even the best track to come from kendrick that battle

i’d put it top 10 off the impact alone but top 5 or even the greatest nah
