Thats because we were all witnessing the beginning of a man's execution. I hope Kendrick releases the disses he has loaded up even if there isn't a response. Its time to take that creepy creature down 👎🏽
I usually can’t stand reaction videos. But watching all these people just be completely at a loss for words and jaw dropped at the stuff Kendrick is saying is the most entertaining thing in the world to me.
Same here, yet at the same time when I feel like I need someone to validate my own feelings or relive my first reactions these videos are my guilty pleasure.
I get why people watch reactions. It's to relive the moment vicariously through others to capture that initial sting. I love seeing how people took that last verse. It's not even hatred, it's pity. And somehow, that's even colder. This is a somber and haunting funeral dirge. And I can't get enough of people being left speechless over the verbal evisceration of a man who threw hands
LOVE how he got all these grown ass men looking flabbergasted, impressed, stressed, traumatised and terrified at the same damn time, that's some power right there
This is that prison flow Drake wasn't ready for...He shot Drake down with Euphoria, dug the grave with 6:16 in LA, buried him with Meet the Grahams and now he's crip walking on his grave with Not Like Us.
He can focus on the whole daughter thing but it's just one part out of the many things Kendrick attacked and deconstructed here. He can claim winning by saying the daughter shit aint true but thats just prove the rest of this psychoanalysis track is true.
Kendrick is insane, that's why Drake THP6 was so weak, Drake burnt himself to make Family Matters, and Meet The Grahams was a way bigger nuke, Drake was not made for fighting like that.
@@bagusamartya5325yeah, THP6 was pretty much lame defense & deflection. From what I'm hearing the whole daughter thing was way back from Pusha T? So nothing new. But if this was a police interrogation, makes you wonder why Drake himself is pushing, "Lol no I fed you wrong information". There's something there🤔
Big facts. Drake mentioned that man wife and it was unanimous that it was outta line.....and we knew Kendrick was gonna take the gloves off. Everything is fair now.
I think after "meet the grahams" dropped, I think most of us just needed some serious therapy too, because that was dark as hell, we needed some clarity for our lives too🤕😭
Honestly, I think many had to do some self-reflection while and after listening to this song. Generational trauma is no joke and only the brave ones look to break it or at least acknowledge it. My favorite dissertation from Kendrick in this "battle".
@@therealspeciesunknown the way he wrote it is like, you hear dear grace then all these guys are supposed to nake a connection that Kendrick is talking about another hidden child, all im saying is its easier to know Kendrick is indeed talking about hiding another child when he spells it out to you, and as a watcher of these reaction we'd already have that knowledge, we know whats coming next so we don't have to theorize what kendrick is talking about. Give people some charity, dont just judge people's intellect from a clip, thats all
@@therealspeciesunknown like what you did with me, use some critical thinking, be charitable. Conversation is a 2 way street and it's hard when thats a song sometimes alright?
I’m impact on the “You Lied” is dream haunting shit and the song isn’t even about me. It really is a lifelong battle with himself nasty work generational diss
It reminded me of my cousin,we did our best to show him his actions towards his kids,his ex wife,towards us Was wrong and I had to call him with a message kinda like this.
I did when he brought up the kids who were wondering where their father was. That shits beyond tragic and it’s one of the major reasons we have such a fucked up criminal problem. He perpetuates the problem by doing that shit. My parents weren’t there so I followed the people around me( they weren’t good people ) and what they told me. I just got lucky by getting out into the army
could you get a compilation of the moment all livestreamers reacting to Family Matters realized that Kendrick dropped? The moment Ak gets told is priceless.
The way everyone stopped bopping their heads along to the beat and just started staring blankly into nothing shows how dark and spooky this track is.. a lot of disses have dirt.. but he presented it in the most evil, darkest, scariest way possible.
They say that you're never truly gone, as long as your story is remembered and retold... That's why Kendrick opted to *_reenact the burning of the Library of Alexandria_* with Drake's _whole_ family tree... save for the anonymous daughter given love, kindness, and well-deserved respect as a queen standing on her own to be able to rebuild their legacy into something greater. _That's_ cold-blooded.
i found his messages to adonis and the anonymous baby girl to be so sweet. he sounded like a gentle father giving advice to his own kids and i thought it was so dope. his sincerity really shined through. as for sandra, dennis, and aubrey, well…🥴
I felt that. Hell, actually the whole song🥶 Even if the whole daughter thing may not be true, it def spoke to all the girls and young women out there. You don't have to cling to a predator, to a deadbeat, even if that person happens to be your own father. Live a beautiful life with purpose, you don't have to wear the chains from your lineage.
Only diss track ever to just about bring me to tears. I'm serious. This shit is ruthlessly brutal. "I'll tell you who your dad is, just play this when it rains" as the piano plays in the background is fucking gut wrenching. Kendrick is a beast. He did what he had to do. Damn.
Every other diss track had people getting hyped, but meet the grahams just had everyone feeling deflated. That shit hurt to listen to, I can't imagine being Drake listening to that. Lol
The difference between this track and Not Like Us is truly insane. This is the shit you listen to while sitting in the dark plotting your evil revenge lmao meanwhile Not Like Us had everyone, even grandma, dancing like crazy
I was just having a conversation about this song. It's so deep for those of us who are decent, normal and empathetic. However, for narcissists like Drake he couldn't care less because they dgaf about their relationships, they're emotional unavailable. Very smart of Kendrick for attacking every angle and for Drake, it would be his looks, material posessions and character as perceived by others. Calling him on his bs trying to be tough and a caring father is humiliating because it breaks the false narrative they have created.
I'm proud to say I'm an OG Kendrick fan - I think the man's a legitimate genius. Proof here: the line "But truthfully, I don't have a hating bone in my body," which IMO he truly makes BELIEVABLE, following Euphoria in which he states "I hate the way that you walk, the way that you talk, I hate the way that you dress - I hate the way that you sneak diss, if I catch a flight it's gon' be direct..." Both are true, at the same time. Kendrick contains multitudes, and it's believable because it's true - as is true of ALL humans. He captures the complexity of the human experience in such a beautiful, poetic way. "Fuck a rap battle, this a long life battle with YOURSELF." He's not just talking to Drake there. He's talking to himself, and all of us.
2:08 to be able to experience this feeling again for the first time.... kendrick was knifing him up. Watching it was a universal feeling of shock, horror, nausea i swear
“5% will comprehend but 95% are lost” “I think you should ask for more paper, and more paper, and more ugh more paper.” Kendrick Lamar’s voice is sexy as hell. Goddamn.
@@effective_cmpoteI feel the same. I feel like they were the true hip hop heads and humanists of all the reactions I watched. I subbed them after that.
Never seen a thing like this one. Everybody who listen Meet the Grahams travel between nausea, pain and fear. 0:11 : ten seconds in, nobody can believe it 0:19 : wtf is happening 0:34 : disbelieve 0:46 : i have to get up 1:01 : a man witnesses a murder 1:08 : state of shock 1:21 : it's a funeral 1:31 : dear Sandra... 1:37 : man have to do it 1:47 : man in the throes of madness 2:04 : difficulty breathing 2:12 : what did he just say? 2:34 : above, two men witness a beheading 3:17 : this man will never recover 3:19 : baby WHAT? 3:32 : cmon man!!! 3:38 : can't take anymore 3:43 : the face on the right makes everything clear 3:45 : please help this man 3:48 : they lose the ability of moving 4:13 , 4:23 : a man tries to contact God for salvation 4:17 : man can't stay still 4:34 : in the center, a man beats another man invaded by the murderous nature of the song 4:56 : everybody agreed, you can't talk about family 5:00 : we lost another brother. 5:07 : DAMN 5:30 : man who regrets pressing play 5:35 : two men displeased after seeing the condition of Drake's body 5:51 : 12 seconds of emotions 6:04 : man must let off steam 6:09 : man lost faith
Gotta love how when Kendrick said "I'ma tell y'all one lil secret..." and everybody on Earth leaned up in they chair like he was gon whisper thru the tv 😂😂😂
This song will go down in history. I've never seen people react to a song like this. The mood change that happened after Family Matters dropped was unreal
Flashback to Friday night: Drake is running through the streets pounding his chest after “Family Matters”.. Meanwhile there’s a knock at the family door. Sandra opens the door and the man outside says, “I’m a friend of your son’s and I’m a little concerned about him… Can I come in and talk to you for a minute?” It’s an excellent day for an exorcism.
What I love about this is if you watch the reaction mash up video for Family Matters, all of these people are legit wearing the same clothes because they had to hop right back on the stream because of how fast Kendrick dropped after Family Matters!!!! This night was an INSANE moment in hip hop!!!!
Watching reaction to this record has become an addiction 😂😂😂… I don’t who you like or don’t, but everyone gotta admit that night was crazy.. mins after he responded with this haunting ass diss record… This will be talked about for lever in hip hop
It’s insane the range of emotions in this compilation. At the start, they all seem excited and happy. Then they hear “dear Adonis” and pure terror washes over. The song keeps digging deeper and everybody just keeps becoming more and more confused, scared, and just shocked. It’s wild to see how they all reacted simultaneously when the different bars hit
I love how the Family Matters reactions had everyone giggling that Drake Jabbed back and then Meet the Grahams was a brutal 8 piece combo into a knock down and everyone is like "damn how it get here??"
out of all the tracks there SO MANY QOUTABLES but one of my fav is from this song... "hey lebron keep the family away, hey Curry keep the family away.. to anybody that embody they love for their kids? keep the family away" i cant stop saying that over and over. Kendrick is a master with the pen
i keep hearing the haunting “YOU LIED” over and over in my head. the line that sticks with me is him telling adonis “you’ll carry yourself as king”. i hope adonis hears it one day and feels empowered.
i don’t really watch reaction videos, but this one i’ll watch 30 times. does anyone else just absolutely love to see how everyone’s jaws dropped all throughout the song?
I’ve seen Mashup videos, and I have never seen a mashup video where the reaction videos are each independently edited so that the song can play through clean without hearing all of their streams at once. Even when the reactors hit pause on the song you keep the reaction capture in so that it flows. They all appear to be listening to the song while the overmusic your video is playing is primary. That’s an excellent technique. If there’s a term for this technique let me know.
my first exposure to this beef was "meet the grahams" before i listened to "family matters". my honest reaction was like "wait why does this sound like someone's reading drake's crimes in court?!" 😭
This song is a reminder to myself to be a good father to my family tree cause I don't want no Pulitzer prize winner be dissing the way i raise my kids and how my children raise their kids in the future
I love the reactions when he says “dear Adonis, I’m sorry that that man is your father”. But the reactions when he moves onto drake’s mom and they realise what “meet the Grahams” means is so fuxking good
