This is the most barbarous like in a rap battle ever.

Of course he lost. The filing of the lawsuit itself proves Kendrick correct. The irony, it was a self defeating lawsuit.

I hear what you’re trying to say, but the old “if it’s not true then why do you care” line is honestly bullshit. Like, we live in a world where money can buy airtime and airtime can drastically influence the ignorant. It’s why FOX News is such a problem.
Don’t get me wrong, Drake is a total pedophile and deserves to lose this. And he should’ve known better than to bring the suit because it’s so obvious he was gonna lose.
But that doesn’t make your argument accurate.

“The penultimate song of this feud, ‘Not Like Us’ dealt the metaphorical killing blow. The song contains lyrics, set to a catchy beat and propulsive baseline. It went on to become a cultural sensation, achieving immense commercial success and critical acclaim.”

That’s what happens when you’re surrounded by yes men who can’t give you real advice. Everyone knew it was gonna fail, but admitting it would’ve mean eating the L. And Drake is too special to lose…
