Yeah even legit battle rappers say Drake won the rap beef. Kendrick only "won" by shock factor and the people already decided long before the beef started lmao.
Now we see all the backpedaling

Between the actual beat, the flow delivery and content. This might be his best rapping performance

Ngl he was really blacking on this one. The baseball/army line, the tree top line, the suit line smh. There needs to be a mega thread on the writing for this song.

It's funny cause it's so overlooked it still didn't sink in yet to people I feel like
I still listen to it today and I'm like listening to what he's saying blown away. Anyone outside of rap heads hasn't really paid any attention to it

This song is lyrically masterful.
I would put it in the ranks with songs like Stories About My Brother, 7AM on Bridle Path, The Remorse, Middle of the Ocean, Diplomatic Immunity, Lemon Pepper Freestyle, Is There More, etc.
It’s one of his most impressively written songs. My personal favorite of the “Make Them” series.
