Pharrell's beats without Chad are missing something like Tim's after Danjahandz

This is hardly an impactful statement because most people predicted this, but this is their 3rd best album. It’s not better than their first two, but it’s better than their 3rd.

This is the Kendrick verse that caused so many problems over at Def Jam? I'm not saying it's a wack verse. It's a fine verse, but from everything I was reading I was expecting this shyt to be super controversial and it's just...not...

Unless I'm missing something? Maybe I just don't understand it

It wasn't the verse. It was the optics.

Can you explain more? My bad I don’t follow

Regardless of the Def Jam thing, dropping this on Roc Nation was a lot better for them

They're having a great rollout and don't think Def Jam is throwing any promo money at their artists these days lol

 

[really tho]

We eating good like the old days

Per Push, they were worried about the optics of having two guys that took down Drake on a song, especially with the lawsuit and stuff going on.

The album was supposed to come out around the time Drake and Kendrick beef was "ending". Not Like Us was on fire and the world was (and still is I guess lol) calling Drake a pedo. A UMG subsidiary releasing and promoting a song with the two dudes who bested Drake during that time would have looked like they're trying to take him down. With Drake's fans pushing the narrative that UMG sent Kendrick after him, they didn't need the added pressure from Pusha T. UMG also probably knew Drake was getting ready to sue them as well.

Being that its out there, they should just put it out officially on DSPs.
