00:00Where do we stand on this now and I know you'd said that you felt like Kendrick was winning this
00:08Slightly slightly, so where do you stand after Drake's latest song? I think Drake's his latest song
00:15I'm a little bit torn with because I like lyrical Drake
00:17So Drake is getting into the you know, the bag that most real hardcore stands like which is me
00:23I like when he raps, however
00:26the subject matter is something that
00:29Necessarily doesn't belong in a battle, right? I mean, it's like a damned if you do damned if you don't situation
00:36It when someone accuses you of such serious allegations if you ignore it
00:40It becomes the elephant in the room you address it
00:43It almost brings more light to it going back to the last beef that Drake was in with Pusha T
00:49That was ended quickly with a bombshell
00:53Revelation that Drake had a kid that's actually changed the
00:57It's changed the trajectory of how all rap beefs are handled now because these days it's more about gossip
01:03But I think both of these guys are realizing we don't want to go into the the scorecards or the judges
01:08We need the knockout
01:10The knockout is going to be a revelation, right if it was true, which by the way, you know
01:15I've done my due diligence. I even spoke to Drake Drake himself and I was like, hey, you're hiding another kid
01:21He's like man listen if you or anyone else if TMZ
01:24Okay, if anybody can find that I'm hiding some 11 year old daughter, you know, I'll quit rap and I'll go work for you guys
01:31How do these guys come out of this and when does it actually end?
01:34I think both these guys are looking for the drop mic moment, right and they can't find it in terms of gossip or news
01:40And I don't think either one raps that much better than each other to also have that moment
01:47So we have one only possible option who's gonna make the biggest hit song. I'm gonna be honest with you. Hey, listen
01:54I'm on the East Coast, but you know
01:56Media newspapers. I've heard that that song not like us
02:00I heard it's kind of starting to make waves outside
02:02Which is very reminiscent of right back back did when me when meek got obliterated by Drake
02:08That was a drop mic moment after Drake dropped back to back. We didn't care what meek meek said afterwards
02:15Actually, he dropped about three four songs, but the conversation was over
