Yeah one of the biggest things I’ve learned from this is just how out of touch both drake and his core fans are. The degree of it is actually astonishing to see
high school, HBCU, and Ohio State. only mainstream college band that at least in my view that probably get a pass. well, maybe Colorado as well thanks to prime.
This song is everywhere to the point where last weekend, I was in my local skating rink and my floor guard played Not Like Us and almost everyone on the floor was going crazy lmao 😭
In essence, Not Like Us is meant to be a West Coast anthem made by a guy who grew up in the West Coast. Beyond anything personal that Kendrick has said in meet the grahams or euphoria, Kendrick is essentially putting this song out to showcase that while Drake can make a song that hypes up the West Coast, Kendrick makes a song that *unites* the West Coast, due to him having a deeper and more personal understanding of the culture of his city and state than Drake will ever have. And by God did he succeed in that.
This is Amapiano bro not Afrobeats Amapiano, a Nguni word loosely translated to "the pianos", is a subgenre of kwaito and house music that emerged in South Africa in the mid-2010s
Back to Back, I liked that record. Imma get back to that "for the record." Now Kendrick has literally broken Drakes record and then some with NOT LIKE US.
I honestly don’t even think that was his end goal. I think on a future diss track he was going to hit on the fact that even in that diss track, Daylyt was who actually wrote it.
The fact he got so many easter eggs people will be going back over his lyrics for a long time, the fact he had professors break his stuff down, the fact that teachers came out saying students were intelligently breaking down the lyrics to other students in the schools, the fact that there are multiple cultural song versions like the afrobeats one, that a dissinstrumental from metro the bbl drizzy beat, has multicultural versions and has people from all instruments covering it, its amazing what he has done. Kendricks diss tracks charted the whole top 5 of the Billboard charts. He knocked Taylor Swift out of the top 5. Was #1 in 40 countries including Toronto. He wore reactors out dropping so much in a day they could barely sleep. When quiet people tell you to leave them alone, leave them alone. Can you imagine the other work he had prepared, he said he could go further. If UMG punk arse didnt jump in to tell Kendrick to stop beefing with Drake because they were losing money. Kendrick should have said F that and made them make Drake apologize publicly. I think it was rumoured he had a massive collab that would have blown it through the roof. Some people have so much talent and potential. Kendrick selflessly even letting youtubers eat from the hate is amazing on top of that. Watching generations, people and their parents, and all races and genre lovers listening and trying to understand his references is just awesome. Drake cancelled his shows, sold his houses, faked a hoax for sympathy, got himself investigated for fake companies doing that, got all his dark secrets exposed, you cant convince me he didnt run crying to his label to make kendrick stop, probably wore out his ghostwriters trying to keep up with kendrick, probably go broke paying off people to not come forward, and moved to another country all because he messed with the wrong man.
- Drake stans when he wins a beef: “numbers don’t matter when his rapping ability does 💯👏🏼” - Drake stans when he LOSES a beef: “lmao cope harder he’s still doing more numbers than ur favorite artist 🤣🤣🤣🤣” They can’t make up their mind they are coping SO hard 😭😭🤣
I was literally on my phone late at night about to go to sleep and my window was open and I heard a car speed by and guess what I heard……. “SAY OV-HOE, OV-HOE” 💀💀
“WOP WOP WOP WOP WOP Dot fuck em up WOP WOP WOP WOP WOP Ima do my stuff” I wish I was back in Morgan State during this, would be crazy at 4229 or in DC 😮
and they have every right to so bc he took off all the copyrights so they can do what ever they want they even got a jersey club mix for meet the grahams 😂
Diss track aside, the song is a banger idc 😂. People saying Kendrick lost meanwhile this song specifically has been played everywhere and remixed several times since it dropped. I was listening to an orchestra version of this song earlier so ain’t no way K Dot loss this battle. Still fw Drake music but K Dot held his own.
Daylyght is a battle rapper. And a huge troll he didn’t write back to back lmao as much as drake has writers he credits them. That lyght thing is something Kendrick fans started cause they be fanned out about every lyric over analyzing
The response to this record is a collective middle finger to all the weird stuff going on in society today. We're tired of it and actively reject it...
Funny because BACK 2 BACK WAS WRTTEN BY DAYLYT ‼️ Not Black Face Drake ‼️ The people are showing that this isn’t about a rap battle, music nor coast ‼️ Cultural reclaim and Rejuvenation ‼️ From NYC, love to all. Bless.
Dee the back to back line was a triple entendre because it was also about daylyt writing back to back for drake. Since he had 5 more disses we didn't get, it's assumed in one of them he would've brought that up aswell. Also, the first clip you saw was daylyt dancing at a party with lebron james an his wife dancing together in the background 😂 Daylyt wasn't supposed to post it apparently because it was a private party 😂
Yes not like us is the song of the summer but ooofff that song is gonna hit all year especially during the fall when high school football and basketball games.
I'm from LA and was at two clubs the very Saturday that Not Like Us dropped and it went INSANE. My people in San Diego and NYC said the exact same thing.
Kendrick dropped back to back twice in a row (Euphoria with 616 and MtG with Not Like Us). He dropped back to back, back to back, with the impact of back 2 back. Layers
Sweet Chin Music and I won't pass the aux, ayy How many stocks do I really have in stock? Ayy One, two, three, four, five, plus five, ayy Devil is a lie, he a 69 God, ayy
1:35 The ACTUAL funny part of this part is that the person dancing in the front is Daylyt, a rapper, who is rumored to have been the one who actually wrote "Back to Back." Meaning, he was one of Drake's ghostwriters. Also, Lebron is dancing in the back 😂. He is not singing the wrong lyrics to this one, though 💀
The drizzler's name is a joke now 😂😂😂, you should see the bachata version of it, the Japanese and emo version are hilarious. Even kids toon has one 😂😂. They making socks and cocktail with BBL Drizzy on it or inspired 😂😂
When I tell you I’ve literally heard this song in every single corner of the city i live in and it’s starting to make me feel like I live in California despite it being on the opposite coast 😂
Y'all glazing too hard Drake still number one. The industry helping Kendrick too much with this even playing his shit in the NBA... sad how many people had to team up just to get at him. Went from a 20 v 1 to a million v 1.
Reasons why Drake won: Banger music video He dropped last song, Kendrick couldn't respond Fooled Kendrick about the daughter narrative More songs, more money, more chicks Made it specifically clear, if he was sleeping with underage girls, he would've been arrested by now Was truthful during the whole beef, as Kendrick lied about everything Kendrick's Not Like Us only successful because it's in reference to Drake The reason behind NBA players doing the 'too small' gesture in games, as it shows everyone Drake's preferred height in girls Yeah, if you're a Drake fan and were nodding to these reasons -- you need help. Kendrick won this beef.
