🚨 What’s The Dirt questions WHAT KENDRICK LAMAR EVEN DOES NEXT, arguing he may have boxed himself into a difficult spot creatively after already exploring nearly every major version of himself. “I feel like Kendrick doesn’t know what the F*CK to do.” They point out Kendrick has already given fans the introspective album, the Black liberation album, the classic storytelling album, the commercial album and the West Coast album. And say Kendrick probably wants to move on and make music without every bar being analyzed for Drake shots, but after Drake got his own shots off on Iceman: “He probably feels OBLIGATED to respond to Drake, but I don’t think he wants to prolong it.” “Post beef, what are you really gonna give us that we HAVEN’T heard already?” And after the way Kendrick was positioned following the battle: “They propped this guy up like he was changing the f*cking GAME, changing the landscape of hip hop… NONE of that stuff happened.” They say Drake’s recent Iceman and FOMO run only adds more pressure on whatever Kendrick chooses to do next.

🚨 JAY-Z tells fans not to let outside narratives change what they actually saw and heard at his SoFi Stadium show. “People will tell you that nobody was in here tonight, but you got EYES.

🚨 The Joe Budden Podcast says DRAKE is now the one rapper who can challenge Jay-Z’s famous longevity claim: “There’s never been a nigga this good for this long.” “One that he could argue with now… and that’s DRAKE.” “I want Drake to FLIP that line on him so bad.” The crew says Jay wasn’t necessarily the hottest rapper at every point, naming 50 Cent, Nelly & Eminem as artists who had hotter moments, but argues Hov’s ability to remain near the top while others came and went is what separated his run.

🚨 Akademiks says if Drake had become the “Ja Rule” of the Kendrick battle, he would’ve viewed it as a FAILURE of his own media power Ak says he carried advice Donald Trump Jr. gave him during their interview into the battle: “No matter if you’re Team Kendrick or Team Drake, just make sure you’re on the winning side.” Ak says that didn’t mean deciding who won the rap battle, it meant making sure the artist he backed never became irrelevant afterward: “If Drake ended up being Ja Rule, I looked at that as the end of me.” He says getting the OVO chain engraved “THE WAR IS OVER” felt like confirmation: “To me, the job was done.” Ak says Drake’s Iceman run felt like a championship for him too because it proved his belief that even if the rest of media goes the other way, an artist he fully backs can still survive. “If I am solidly down with whoever this person is, we’re going to make it.” He also points to 6ix9ine as another artist he stayed behind after the industry turned on him, saying an artist surviving is proof of his own media influence.

🚨 Peter Rosenberg goes IN on Ye for insisting on unveiling the “Dr. Donda West Way” sign himself at the ceremony honoring his own mother Rosenberg says Ye couldn’t even make it 10 seconds without turning the moment into something about himself: “You can’t just show up and be fully normal for 10 seconds.” Then he takes it even further: “I’m sorry that her son turned out to be so weird and disappointing on so many occasions.” He says Donda West absolutely deserved the honor but argues Ye interrupting the person leading the ceremony was another example of him needing to make every moment his own. Ebro pushes back, saying it’s tough to attack Kanye west for wanting to personally unveil a street sign honoring his own mother. Via Ebro, Laura & Rosenberg

🚨 Akademiks says Jay-Z dropping an album basically EVERY YEAR made his run “look like dominance,” and argues his success allowed him to rewrite how people remember his career. “He was like NBA YoungBoy of back then.” Ak says Jay stacking No. 1 albums wasn’t the same as actually having the biggest rap album every year: “He just got a number one.” He argues Jay was CONSISTENT, but says 50 Cent had the type of commercial peak that represented real dominance. “50 is the definition of dominance.” “Jay-Z was never dominant. He was consistent, he was never dominant.”

🚨 Wayno PUSHES BACK on 50 Cent saying Jay-Z was NEVER dominant and says the conversation is turning into REVISIONIST HISTORY. Wayno admits Jay couldn’t touch Pac, Biggie or Nas when Reasonable Doubt dropped, and even says Mase was hotter after Pac & Big died. But he says people are going too far acting like Jay never had his moment: “What about when Vol. 2 sold 5 million?” “At that time, Jay-Z was regarded as the BEST rapper.” Wayno also says there NEVER was a time when niggas would argue, BAR FOR BAR, that 50 Cent was the best rapper.”

I ain’t no hoe”

🚨 Akademiks speaks on Drake & J. Cole NOT submitting their music to the GRAMMYs and says Kendrick Lamar’s dominance has made artists feel like the outcome is already decided. Ak says the Grammys “OVERCORRECTED” after Macklemore beat Kendrick for good kid, m.A.A.d city in 2014. “Since 2014, Kendrick Lamar has won 27 Grammys.” Ak compares that with Drake winning 4 in that span, J. Cole 2, Future 3 and Nicki Minaj still having none. “This type of dominance is like Tiger Woods early on versus the rest of the golfers.” Ak says he understands why Drake and Cole would rather sit out than have their names used to make the race look competitive. “I’d rather not be in a race where my name is just on the nominees list to make it look like there’s competition, but I know where it’s going to go.”

🚨 Joe Budden says Kanye repeatedly publicly humiliates people who were loyal to him, then brings them back around whenever he feels like it and calls the pattern “corny” and “sickening” Reacting to Ye bringing Big Sean and other artists out at his Chicago show, Joe says the reunion itself is dope, but argues Kanye went way too far publicly disrespecting Sean before eventually reconnecting Joe also brings up Pusha T, saying Push refused to speak badly about Kanye even when they tried to get him to, and says that kind of loyalty makes Ye’s public attacks look even worse “If that’s your dude, then stand by your dude. Don’t diss him.” “When you start embarrassing or belittling a nigga publicly, it’s a different thing.” Via The Joe Budden Podcast

🚨 Mal says the Kendrick Lamar vs Drake battle helped normalize people casually throwing around the word “pedophile” without evidence. The conversation came up after Reggie,, publicly labeled Kai that, which Kai denied. Mal says that was one of his biggest issues with Kendrick using the term during the battle, arguing a label that serious can be weaponized to damage somebody’s image. Rory agrees, saying he believes it “trickled into” younger fans feeling comfortable using the accusation online, while stressing he doesn’t think that was Kendrick’s intention. They also repeatedly make clear they do NOT know whether Reggie’s allegations about Kai are true or false. Via Rory & Mal

🚨 Wayno checks Akademiks over an era he says “Ak DIDN’T LIVE THROUGH” saying there’s a huge difference between researching hip hop history and actually being there while it was happening. “In ’96, ’97, ’98, ’99, 2000, 2001… you wasn’t even listening to RAP MUSIC.” Wayno says while Ak was still a kid, he was already inside the Roc-A-Fella/Baseline environment around Kanye, Just Blaze and more: “In 2001, I was 18. I’m already in the BUILDING where RocAFella’s at.” He admits that may give him some bias, but says people can’t rewrite what the culture actually felt like in real time. Via Wayno
