It's a dope track. All 3 rappers did their thing but of course K-dot's verse stood out.

I think all this twitter excitement is premature. Kendrick didn't actually take shots at anybody. I interpreted his verse as similar to what Hov once said:

'The holy trinity of Hip Hop is us - we give Dre his props but that's where it stops'


Rappers catching feelings over this would be like LL Cool J vs Canibus again.

It's nothing like Jay's line. MOF What he did is more like what 50 cent tried to do, only difference is K. Dot doing his with lyricism, no bullying or blackballing like 50.

I’m usually homeboys with the same nikkas I’m rhymin wit
But this is hip hop and them nikkas should know what time it is

And that goes for Jermaine Cole, Big KRIT, Wale
Pusha T, Meek Mill, A$AP Rocky, Drake
Big Sean, Jay Electron’, Tyler, Mac Miller
I got love for you all but I’m tryna murder you nikkas
Tryna make sure your core fans never heard of you nikkas
They don’t wanna hear not one more noun or verb from you nikkas
What is competition? I’m tryna raise the bar high
Who tryna jump and get it? You better off tryna skydive

Plus this is not beef, it's competition. Both are totally different but increases the talent level the same. None of these rappers that tweeted are angry at Kendrick, they just know they gotta answer his calling with heat or look like food.

it really doesn't feel like he's trying to incite beef. . he's sparking competition. . that's a good thing if it forces cats to put down the molly's and pick up a pen.


using a basketball analogy it's like when Larry Bird walked into the locker room before the 3 point content and said "which one of you is coming in second tonight". he wasn't starting fights, just letting cats know what his intentions were at that time
