Drake got a point. This isn't battle rap. If its not TRULY beef, then fall back.

Say what you want...but ya'll can't deny that.

All that "competition" shyt 50 Cent drummed into your heads was because he had LEGIT street beef with these dudes...not on some "i'm gonna outdo you in the booth" shyt...which is funny since Drake already told dudes that he's not going to be all on some "i rap better than XYZ" shyt. He lets the music speak for itself.

Beef in the past was over ACTUAL problems...

If ya'll want "wax" beef then thats just even cornier than taking the effort to record diss songs in the first place.

Basically Drake said about Kendrick: Look. I got no problems with anyone, but if its not REALLY about an ACTUAL problem, then why pay attention to it? Its not like you're an actual threat to me. Its not like you're doing shyt OUTSIDE of the booth I have to be concerned about.

So Drake is supposed to take part in this merry-go-round of bullshyt? For what? Just to say he did? Its not even a fukking beef. Its a dude throwing stones trying to drum up attention to an issue thats NOT there.

If ya'll want battle rap, go kick it in the bathroom next to the stalls and have your boys beat-box for you.

The rest of us would like to get back to hearing our ENTERTAINERS, ENTERTAIN us.

I disagree.

Rap is often called two different things: a "game" and a "business".

If it's a game, you're supposed to compete against other people in the same league. In some sports, competitions are scheduled in advance ... in others (like boxing), one competitor simply challenges the other and the competition is set up.

If it's a business, you're supposed to try and outdo competing entities, sometimes mentioning competitors by name and highlighting their shortcomings.

Rap is not a real thing. There is no need for legitimate beef for two artists to engage each other.

I don't really care what drake does. If he chooses not to partake in the direct competition of rap, that's fine with me (I don't buy his shyt anyway). But attempting to disparage the competitive nature of hip-hop is just dumb, and he should stop doing it.

If he wants to be a pop star, that's fine. If he wants to connect with street dudes, that's fine. But don't try to disregard decades of classic diss records by pretending the art form has to be connected to legitimate beef.

What "legitimate street beef" did 50 have with LOX? Nas? Fat joe?

Also, like you said, you said, you want your entertainers to entertain you right? What's not entertaining about competition?

Didn't him and nas fall out bout nas pulling a power move and replacing him on a jay lo song? Sounds like a legit problem to me, money and exposure gone.

As far as the lox and fat joe, maybe he thought it was some subs thrown on that New York song and they helped ja get a legit hit and that's something he couldn't have. So to take attention away from the song he had to diss everyone on the song because just dissing ja again wouldn't bring new attention.

So basically he didn't have "legit street beef" with any of them. And you can add Jay-Z, Wu tang, Rick Ross, TI and Lil Wayne, all of who 50 has thrown shots at. I'm just pointing out the flaw in OPs logic

:what:

And I feel like lately it went from top five to remaining five
My favorite rappers either lost it or ain't alive.
I'm just feeling like the throne is for the taking, watch me take it
You nikkas getting older, I see no threat in Yoda
Please pardon my brother, he's just angry at you nikkas
Who dont have your heart in your rap shyt and got too fukking comfy
Give these nikkas the look, the verse, and even the hook
That's why every song sound like Drake featuring Drake.

Damn, Young Angel was murkin them nikkaz and you fakkets think gopher stands a chance :heh:
if gopher dont got he dont got it, the theory is brilliant...
So Kendrick telling other people to step their game up is him drumming up attention, but Drake taking shots at other rappers is cool, because he doesn't say their name?

Wow, so now we got soft ass cheerleader nikkas co-signing the fact that a faq rapper wants to take no part in and completely eradicate a fundamental pillar of Hip-Hop.

That's like hoppin in a dodgeball game, KNOWING it's dodgeball, (regardless of if u an aggressive player or not...) and then even throwin the ball urself, then soon as u get hit, you on some "OWWWW GUYSSS :heh: :to: THAT HURTTTT! Y'ALL CANT DO THIS NO MORE, STOP THROWING BALLS AT ME :mjpls: :sadbron: WE'RRE SUPPOSED TO BE FRIENDS...IF WE ARENT BEEFIN WHY ARE YOU HITTING ME?!?!" :sadcam::sadcam::sadcam:

:wrist:


fukk U AND UR LEADER bytch....AND I ACTUALLY LIKE SOME OF DUDES RECORDS...

ALSO, WHERE IS THE STATEMENT (FROM DRAKE) IN QUESTION, PERTAINING TO THE THREAD TITLE? IF THERE IS ONE, I'D LIKE TO SEE IT...

Since Control dropped you've done nothing but start Kendrick related threads and call him dumb ass nick names like k dot minaj.

http://www.thecoli.com/threads/so-t...d-joint-says-she-likes-kendrick-lamar.143897/

This cute suburban white bytch says, "you dont have to turn it down, I love Kendrick Lamar..." First thought I'm like "let me get this broad # and smash her out" but all I could muster was a :rudy: "I hate that nikka, my ipod was on random" then I drove off...

:what:at this dude calling anybody a homotional stan
