Jun 16, 2016 In his controversial "Control" verse, Kendrick Lamar called out Drake's name in a list of 12 rappers he had love for, but was "tryna murder." Drake responded by calling the verse "an ambitious thought" in a 2013 interview, but said he didn't feel like Lamar was outdo-ing him in any way at that time. Since then fans have been trying to decode lyrics from both artists looking for subliminal shots as no direct call-out was released from either party. Lamar has said previously that the song didn't impact his relationship with The 6ix God, and recently uploaded a clip of himself singing along to the rap superstar's "Controlla." But former NFL player/current radio host Marcellus Wiley says he witnessed first-hand one of the two rappers take a clear shot at the other in an interview that was shelved at the request of the rapper's team. "I can’t say what I wanna say, but I’m gonna say it anyways because my contract is up and this might give me more money,” Wiley said on an episode of Max & Marcellus on ESPN radio this week. “All I know is there was a beef, and all I know is I was witness to when the beef would have ignited to proportions we have not seen since Ja Rule/50, maybe even Ice Cube/N.W.A. Like it went there. But that was destroyed from everyone’s property. That was destroyed, that interview, that moment was destroyed. That’s all I’m gonna say. But I was there and I heard the shots fired." Wiley refused to divulge which side fired the alleged shot, explaining, "It was one-sided, and the other side was about to retaliate if that would’ve got out, but they destroyed the evidence. And I ain’t lying." Source: hiphopdx.com
Jun 16, 2016 So who was going to release a No Vaseline track? Kendrick or Drake? Seriously though this N.W.A like beef has me wondering.
Jun 16, 2016 SEEN this............... thought about it ...... Heard Drake mentioned / referenced Kendrick in two recent songs..................... I don't know how true this is
Jun 16, 2016 Well... pretty f---ing obvious what would of happened IMO. >Kendrick mentions Drake on Control >Drake responds with "how ambitious" in interview insert mysterious interview that got destroyed >Kendrick is asked about Drake's comments >Kendrick says, he's not ambitious and he writes his own rhymes where as Drake doesn't Just imagine if Kendrick went at him instead of Meek. Drake would have 1 male fan in the entire world at that point @Young Papi
Jun 16, 2016 Meek Mill did a great job at exposing Drake. The only fans delusional enough to defend his writing skills and status in hiphop are male groupies.
Jun 16, 2016 Views has 1 billion listens, Drake wrote a song for Kanye West, he even freestyled that Back to Back song. I agree, he exposed him but here's what he should of done better. 1. Release War Pain first; 2. Not use social media and just go on wax and 3. Actually destroy Drake by pointing things out other than ghostwriting. Kendrick v. Drake would of been hardcore lyrical s--- that would of destroyed either one of their careers compared to the laughfest that is Drake v. Meek. Man, Philly needs to recover badly; I can't take it being a laughingstock town anymore.
Jun 16, 2016 There's nothing Kendrick could say to Drake that Meek hasn't already mentioned. Milli Vanilli's first album sold 14 million copies.
Jun 16, 2016 lets be real, if anyone started talking s--- then tried to delete all evidence of it, that would have been drake the whole reason he got his team to get rid of it was probably because he feared for his career
Jun 16, 2016 @Young Papi add poll please, I'd like to know who'd be more popular/have a career if this beef happened.
Jun 16, 2016 OP, ffs, the yellow almost blends in with the white which makes it hard to read, please pick another color , also drake is several multiple times more popular than kendrick. I want to say kendrick is better lyrically (which overall he might be), but i realized that drake actually has catchier punchlines and dope one liner's which ive frankly never experienced (or was looking for) in a kendrick song. Finally, assuming that kendrick could win in a 1v1 beef, drake has several people who could back him, particulary Weezy (who wasn't mentioned in his all time list.) while kendrick has......... If weezy get's involved, i doubt Kendrick could handle them both
Jun 16, 2016 Kendrick. Would. Obliterate. Him... He has TDE, Dr. Dre, the west coast and believes in integrity in music. Plus Drake wouldn't have anything to fire back with besides "I made you famous", and "I really write my own raps, I wrote your mentors raps didn't I?".
