Has anyone else been following this? I started paying attention when Kendrick Lamar dropped a diss verse on Drake in Future's new album, "We don't trust you".
There's been a flurry of rappers dropping diss tracks against Drake these past few weeks which include Kendrick Lamar, Future, Metro Boomin, Rick Ross, A$AP Rocky etc.
But this Kendrick vs Drake thing has been one of the most entertaining things in hip-hop in a long time. These dudes are getting real, real personal. Haven't seen something like this since pac vs biggie and even that wasn't this drawn out and personal. These guys are trying to end each other's careers. Pedo accusations, molestation accusations, accusations of hidden children...shit is wild.
I'll do my best to list the tracks and the subsequent reaction tracks in chronological order, focusing on Drake vs Kendrick:

Chris Brown is another motherfucker that I can't believe has the fanbase he has. Absolutely wrecked Rihanna's shit and suffered no consequences. [Reply]
It’s hard to believe that there really are idiots that thought the Jewish Canadian kid from Degrassi had a chance lyrically against a Pulitzer Prize winner from Compton. It’s even harder to believe that people are still trying to make the argument after this weekend’s massacre, though. [Reply]

Drake has a bigger fan base. More commercial success, more mainstream. He's going to have his ardent defenders.
TBH, i was never even really a big K-dot fan until this spectacle. Made a fan out of me. [Reply]

K Dot is a ****ing ARTIST! The best live performer too. A lot of hip hop shows are just a bunch of people hanging on stage and singing with their music. Kendrick puts on the best hip hop show I’ve ever seen. You can see him live on Amazon Prime if it’s still on there. [Reply]

That was sus but I believe Drake was like 22, 23 at the time. Age of consent in a lot of places is 16.
It’s really, really not all that uncommon for 22 year old dudes to be fucking with 17 year olds. We all went to high school, some of us college; we’ve seen this shit quite a bit.
Other than that it’s just people claiming he’s a groomer because Millie Bobby Brown said he and her text and he offers her life advice and advice about boys as well as a super reach about him kissing a 16-year old Kylie Jenner on the cheek when he was 27 (at her Sweet Sixteen).

Harvey Weinstein and P.Diddy were "Unsubstantiated rumors" at one point too.
Eh, who is Kendrick to even broach this subject anyway? He threatened to take all of his music off of Spotify in protest if they removed R. Kelly’s music from the platform lol
Guy is a hypocrite at best and a literal scumbag at worst if he’s had knowledge or legit proof of Drake being a true pedophile for all these years and just sat on the info. [Reply]
This is definitely the easiest way to spot an Aubrey Graham fan. Look for the middle aged man talking like he’s 14. :-)

:-) I think you’d be surprised at how many of us distanced ourselves from predators by that point in our lives. What a creepy response. I’m glad you’re on that side of the debate. :-)

It was actually Kendrick’s label that was fighting Spotify’s hate content policy essentially fighting for artists free speech rights. Daniel Ek, the Spotify CEO “took personal responsibility for the botched rollout” and “deemed the policy too ambiguous and open to interpretation.”
Kendrick was caping for free speech not R Kelly. I think his passionate hate for Aubrey and his OV-Hoes shows he definitely hates pedophiles. [Reply]
