Holy fuck, very nice show! I don't give a shit about this beef, but Drake on suicide watch after that though. I really like the song 'Not like us' too.

Phenomenal show.
I don't even like very much rap but I've been energized ever since, can only imagine how the people in the audience felt.
People were saying how he might not even do any of the beef songs... and he did various versions of Not Like Us *six* times... and the crowd still wanted more. It was great seeing him do Still DRE and California Love too.

That video was AWESOME! To give some knowledge about the dancers: the guy in the clown outfit is the originator of a dance style called Clowning (or Clownin') which is kinda related to Krumping ... Both West Coast dances that REQUIRE a lot of athleticism to do. Dance crews like Jabbawockeez and others incorporate Clownin' and Krumping (both came from breakdancing and pop-locking which both originated with Hip Hop).
Just wanted to share in case anyone didn't understand why the guy was in a clown outfit and the other dancers were wearing face paint. They're all a part of the Clownin' culture.

The whole point of Not Like Us was to make a simple, dance-able song that everyone can sing along to. That's its power. Yes, it's dumbed down for the masses compared to his other songs in this beef, but that's why he's got the whole hood singing and dancing behind him.
We all know Kendrick can rap, that he can tell stories, that he can switch up his flows 20 times in a song, all of that. But when your opponent is Drake, you might just have to make 'em dance.

Drake has exactly one tactic in all of his beefs. Flaunt his money and success; tease playfully, and attack you and your girl. Especially that last part, because he equates attacking your girl with attacking your manhood. He does this every beef he's in, and is never equipped to handle the heat that comes as a result of this approach.
Now Kenny has flipped it completely on its head, flaunting a happy and healthy family unit that drake has never had but always feels the need to try and undermine.

Drake Accuses UMG & Spotify of Scheme to ‘Artificially Inflate’ Kendrick Lamar’s ‘Not Like Us’
Drake says UMG and Spotify schemed to boost Kendrick Lamar’s "Not Like Us" via bots, payola and other methods.

Drake is such an embarrassment man. To hip hop, to Canada, to the Raptors. Everything.

That was a masterclass! I'm sure certain individuals who went to the game were confused AF and not understanding anything going on... But many of us did!

I have zero clue about modern hip hop. Has it dropped its ''Attitude Era'' and gone all safe and politically correct?
Reminds me of the Shapiro video getting hip and down with the kids. This guy is a lawyer. Wack as fuck.

Performance was good at the Super Bowl, not better than Prince and MJ but definitely one of the better ones. Think it's kinda lame that a diss took Kendrick to such heights considering his body of work. But yeah... calling Wheelchair Jimmy a pedo is the best song he's ever made. 
Thought it was an Amazon sponsorship
That's crazy work.

Kendrick is more conscious hip hop than attitude but he's in no way politically correct... I'd suggest listening the his Drake dis track from last year that had most people doing the crip walk... "Not Like Us" ... There's some context you might not get and will probably need some explanation but ... Just on its own, it's a bop!

Yeah when that little gremlin was on stage I decided it was a good time to get up and move around and refresh my adult beverage because not interested in his music at all then one song I was like wtf I know this song and why do I know it
Turns out one of my most played NBA 2k games is 2018 (just seeing how high I can push the career scoring record) and one of his tracks is in that game
I was in the kitchen and heard that song come on and I was like
