I was in high school when "Takeover and Ether dropped" this was way better

[Morethan1]

Merge if you want mods but this beef beat the J vs Nas beef 10 fold. Maybe it's due to social media but I'm not even saying Kendrick part. The entire beef was way better

 

[RickyDiBiase]

Yeah, it surpassed Jay and Nas at this point. Thankfully nobody lost they life over this shyt.

 

[spliz]

Maybe for nikkas not from NYC. In NYC nah. We just came off 9/11. The feeling in the city was unmatched. Plus the actual raps and diss tracks were better.

 

[Vandelay]

It was masterfully played by Kendrick. Even though Jay lost the beef, almost every mainstream beef been using his playbook since; truth in the bars, and then baiting to set the killshot up.

I still think Takeover/Ether has the edge. But this is definitely that level.

 

[Surreal]

Nas got screwed outta his chance to destroy Jigga like KDot just did Drake

 

[TRBM]

Takeover and Ether had such a buildup....when I heard 'Ask Nas...' I was shocked

Nas was my guy but I'd be lying if ain't think he was done
So when Ether dropped
Damn near had a stroke



But this shyt was different, never seen nothin like this

 

[Metal Face]

Drake could never be apart of a beef better than Nas vs Jay

 

[ahomeplateslugger]

i still think jay/nas was the greatest beef in hip-hop history. pac and biggie was the most violent but as far as music and story i think jay/nas easily. we got so many more records out of that:

takeover
blueprint 2
ether
is that your chick
the bridge
stillmatic freestyle
supa ugly
last real
made you look - felt like a diss to jay?

probably a lot more i'm not mentioning. their disses are better too. blueprint 2 was wild. drop the flutes on them (even tho there were none) still goes crazy. i was a jigga warrior on AHH and SOHH back in those days so i still remember. that was like our world war at the time.

 

[Da_Eggman]

it was a longer deep rooted beef 12 years in the making

 

[G-Zeus]

No

 

[G-Zeus]

Ether is a term for a reason

 

[TheRtist]

Maybe for nikkas not from NYC. In NYC nah. We just came off 9/11. The feeling in the city was unmatched. Plus the actual raps and diss tracks were better.

nah

this was WAY better the decade long build up leading to this was amazing

 

[Higher Tech]

I was just out of high school. The Jay vs Nas thing was more entertaining to me.

 

[MicIsGod]

Will never see anything like this again.

 

[Gifted one]

It's more so how Kendrick annihilated Drake. Jay vs Nas was a battle of equals. Drake doesn't write his raps, we're watching in amazement an artist destroying a Karaoke act
