Why won't Kendrick accept the smoke from Lupe and Joey Bada$$?

[Loose]

I'm a Lupe fan. But I agree, we, lupe fans, are the worst.

Easily yall Kendrick stans, imagine typing that shyt

 

[Ziggiy]

I don't know if you're joking or not, but this is what Kendrick did to get Drake to respond.

Kendrick tried to get this shyt popping off back in 2021 with Family Ties, but I think the disses were a little to subliminal or not direct enough. But with Like That, you could deny who he was talking about. It was clear as day.

Kendrick tried to get it popping on TPAB and Damn. ESPECIALLY Damn.

Good to know. No, I wasn't joking. Getting more and more disrespectful to the point that everyone in the room is talking about it but the guy it's aimed at pretends it doesn't exist or isn't worthy of a response means they're forfeiting. You win by default.

Kendrick had way more to lose than Drake in this battle

And it was way more challenging for him to win that fight... he was against the initial industry stand and streamers, and he needed the bigger hits to win. He was always considered the better rapper/artist, but people, journalists, magazines and co were already saying "Drake would win regardless even if he loses because he's more popular".

Even If Drake Loses the Kendrick Lamar Battle, Here’s Why He Already Won the War

While Kendrick's verse on Metro Boomin and Future's "Like That" reverberated the hip-hop space, Drake fires back and is ready to attack the industry.

I'm happy all of that was recorded, saved and shared, so people can't rewrite history.

Drake fans are the new maga, trying to rewrite history on a daily basis

You wasting time with that Gnauze slurping cum bucket @Ziggiy who gets cucked by both his stepfathers

If Nas had a weak nasally voice and was obsessed with Japanese culture and white tech billionaires, he'd be Lupe Fiasco.

While this is true, during that time they were acting like there wasn't any issues in interviews. I do wonder if that was a decision that Top was influencing.

The Family Ties track just sticks out for me, but I felt like it was only one nikka he was talking about and he was very aggressive with his shyt talking.

 

[Pure Water]

I haven't really commented on the Lupe shyt because tbh, I've never liked his music.

I'm going back and listening to his albums now. I may do a retrospective thread on them later.

take a few weeks with each album, listen to T&Y with headphones

I'm starting at Food & Liquor. It'll probably take me a week or two to get to T&Y.

 

[Yayo Toure]

He'll never battle Lupe. He's scared. His midget tantrums won't work against a GOAT.

 

[MaNu Minu]

I don't know, I think Kendrick is way too talented for artists like Lupe. Thats the definition of wasting your time.

Joey would get decimated.

I don't have anything else to say about that.

As far as Lupe, unless I'm missing something this is the last time he spoke about Dot, around a year ago:

Lupe Fiasco Clears the Air on Rumored Kendrick Lamar Rift: ‘I Never Said I Don’t Like Him’

Lupe Fiasco cleared the air on his rumored rift with Kendrick Lamar, which he says does not exist. Listen to what he had to say about K. Dot.

www.billboard.com

Said he has no problem with Kendrick and praised him.

Lupe was actually teaching a course at MIT

Where he broke down Kendrick's lyrics.

Kendrick, as far as I know, hasn't acknowledged Lupe at all in the last decade.

So....yeah. If you teach a college course about my lyrics I ain't battling you. You're just a disgruntled fan to me.

Fred.

 

[Rembrandt]

nikka WHAT


(you my boy but out of pocket for this thread).

Not outta pocket at all.

Has been a fun/interesting thread.

Horseshoe theory very prevalent; especially when you have people in Joey's delayed album thread saying this is the kill shot for Kendrick.

That was literally just a snippet from the entire course on rap. Of course he'll bring him up; no need to try to frame it a scholarly lecture as him being afraid because we have posts before and after.

but I expect nothing else from the most disingenuous mod that was proudly saying several times that if he became a mod then it'll be over for Drake stans in the forum while throwing your hands up regarding the bots. To the point you were just throwing your hands up and saying the site was dying, citing forum posts to show this subsection was dying for justification

 

[Mystic]

Both been very vocal. Both have called him out.

Joey heard people saying he wasn't on Kendrick League and has to battle to get up there but he did that and basically ended one career over there for sure. Even battled a super acclaimed battle rapper who decided to fall back because literally nothing was hitting..

The Drake win is one, but since everyone here thinks he's trash or not even worthy and none of his responses hit, then this is basically the Drake x meek mill beef again.

He went for Big Sean but that element diss was absolutely trash, especially considering Sean has been openly dissing for a min. "You finally famous because of who you date, not how you rhyme" is supposed to be it for Sean?

And going after Jay electronica to somewhat help the credibility shyt is wild. That's a beef that Joe Budden wants.


If you wanna say Joey isn't rapping to the tier of Kendrick fine. But what about Lupe? He seems to just be waiting for anything to respond to. Same with Joey, although he has actually been 100% direct on who he's talking to

Even his latest single is directly referencing the whole TDE shyt and asking for one.

Joey wasn't dissing Joey and neither has Lupe

 

[Hum Alistair]

Joey Bada$$ just got shelved at Columbia Records... even his label treat him as a peasant. Nobody cares about dude
