  What kind of a bitch she’s over a diss track instead of clapping back?

  So Drake is both a bitch and a pedo

  This is what happens when a manufactured star encounters a real one.

  On the track Taylor Made Freestyle, Drake used the AI-generated voice of Tupac Shakur to give Lamar advice on how to win the rap battle.

  “Talk about him likin’ young girls, that’s a gift from me,” the song suggested.

  “It is in this context in which such lyrics as 'Say, Drake, I hear you like ‘em young’ must be assessed,” wrote Judge Vargas.

  Bruh. Drake literally publishes a song going “what you gonna do, hit me?” and then cries foul when he does, in fact get hit

  Regarding Lamar’s song, Judge Vargas said: “Even apparent statements of fact may assume the character of statements of opinion… when made in public debate, heated labour dispute, or other circumstances in which an audience may anticipate the use of epithets, fiery rhetoric or hyperbole.”

  I really appreciate this opinion coming from a judge. This is modern day debate and storytelling. No one believed it was necessary to start an arson investigation on Eminem with his accomplish Dr Dre when he had the line “With a can full of gas and a hand full of matches.”

  It’s a good thing he still got those DeGrassi Junior High residuals.

  “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.”
