A footnote is harsh but yeah Kendrick the GOAT.

But still 7 Minute Drill was pretty good. Felt more like a warning than an all-out diss track.

Agreed. I've been of, if not the biggest Kendrick stans on this board for a long time. But I really like J Cole, too. Kinda wish Kendrick had only gone at Drake.

J Cole said his response was lame and he don't want to battle Kendrick. If Kendrick wants to stay stuff then he can say it. So I guess we're left with Kendrick vs. Drake now.

My 23 year old son has been a J Cole fan for years. Pretty sure he's his fave rapper of all time. I though have no dog in this fight, just putting that perspective out there is all.
I did however buy him tickets to see Kendrick when he came through Perth and he loved the show for real. But he's still a J Cole guy.

The whole 1st season of Cole Cuchna's "Dissect" podcast was a deep dive into "To Pimp A Butterfly" it is pretty great.
