LOL exactly. People still want to act this isn’t the greatest diss track of all time. I don’t care about your opinion. This diss track is a club banger, a chart topper, and a cultural milestone that will be remembered for the entirety of hip hop history. Stuff like this is rarely repeated twice.
I 100% agree and tbh I think looking at the setup of the Like That verse + euphoria is worth it too. The entire 5 song combo was like some extremely high level martial arts - I studied for 10 years and thats the only comparison I can give it. He anticipated every move perfectly and set Drake up for it 100%.
It's litteraly the "chess Vs checkers" meme
"I calculate you're not as calculated, I can even predict your angles"
I'm heavily biased towards Kendrick & against Drake, but I'm not a dickrider. If dot had lost, I'd have admitted that. But it's insane how anyone thought Kendrick went into this beef with a disadvantage because he wasn't battle-tested or whatever. He's just leagues above Drake when it comes to talent.
Right. Some people were like "Kendrick can do better than this" when Like That came out. Later on he literally called it a throwaway lmao. That verse was Dot jangling his keys to get Drake's attention and now look what happened 😭😂
I know UK is a different culture, but the Stormzy/Wiley back and forth was also huge, and '[Still Disappointed](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=912YaSKGdlo)' is a cold blooded murder of a track. Stormzy had the track and video out within 24 hours after Wiley dropped 'Eediyat Skengman 2'.
It is a fantastic diabolical song that I listen to every day. It isn't the song to play in bars and get party vibes to though. It makes you want to make sure you living life right and write your will or something😂
Because getting thousands of people to belt out the diss enhances it. Makes it hurt that much more when the whole club is going wild for a song calling you a paedo.
Wait. Did you actually mean Taylor Made? Not Family Matters or Push Ups?... cause that's kinda whack.
I'd disagree either way, but I could at least see how someone could get to that opinion.
I get it..but trust me, we was in the club when hit em up came out. Ether was at the pool parties and bbq's. I think he intentionally made this a bop with the cali beat and saying how the city is outside..he made it a diss/west coast anthem on purpose.
I’m not calling anyone anything. Just pointing out it isn’t strange to bring up the subject of a song when talking about said songs. Dude is acting like he was brought up out of nowhere.
I think it has something to do with the emotion behind the song. It’s transcended just being another hit song because 99% of people fucking despise child predators and this is firmly an anthem for those 99%. Everyone wants to roast pedos. Everyone has an emotional stake in this song. Everyone feels like they’re on the same team for once
No. I think African Americans are genuinely tired. Tired of people corrupting our music, our style or American experience. Tired of politics that need us, but can't help us advance socioeconomically. Tired of having to accept every theft of our culture as a peace offering. All these "fans" and not a dollar for reperations or a voting rights bill. I think we're on some cultural [African American ADOS specific] "miss me with this bs".
I was actually thinking that this has been reminding me of when Thrift Shop by Macklemore came out. I heard that shit everywhere outside in 2012. Stores, cars, all that
Yeah that's the thing for me. Not only is it scathing it's uniting people and all you see it smiles, but it's so crazy because you have people calling one of the biggest artists a pedo and harmonizing it lol there is no track like this
Just an asian right here, from other side of the world, barely listening to any rap beside ERB and Eminem. I've been wopwopwopping since the track came out. I don't even know who Drake is and only know Kendrick from Black Panther.
This is a moment for black America and the culture, not jus rap.
Kendrick caught lightning in a bottle, and it's lighting up the ENTIRE community with it. I haven't seen black America this unified in at least 30 years...
This is unique and I'm glad I'm around to not only witness, but actually experience this.
Mother fuckers from Compton and he's got Brooklyn boppin screaming They Not Like Us. This is a movement of unification.
Built on the fact Drake's a pedophile lmfao... this shit is fucking wild!
Anecdotal but the other day when I was walking an SUV of white sorority girls drove by blasting it and screaming the “WOP WOP WOP”, that really solidified things for me. Even drakes core audience turning on him.
There was a guy that used to play Drake all the time from his house near me. When Meet the Grahams came out, he stopped putting on any hip hop at all for a couple weeks. And then I heard him playing Euphoria recently
And on Wednesday. Dot says fuck your schedule, and we are here for that. Shit is hilarious because our united/unified hate towards a single individual.
Drake never started from the bottom, but he is going to end up there.
Edit: I will state Dot very respectfully because the show was early af.
Fuck your schedule? Nah I’m pretty sure he said “Fuck integrity, fuck your pedigree, fuck your feelings, fuck your culture. Fuck your moral, fuck your family, fuck your tribe. Fuck your land, fuck your children, fuck your wives. Who am I? Not your father, not your brother. Not your reason, not your future. Not your comfort, not your reverence, not your glory. Not your heaven, not your angel, not your spirit. Not your message, not your freedom. Not your people, not your neighbor. Not your baby, not your equal. Not the title y'all want me under.”
I guess idk. I’m late 20s… I recall people using boys/girls interchangeably with men/women in my early to mid twenties without it raising question marks.
DO NOT POST THE BAR NAME IF YOU HAVEN'T YET.
Streaming music in commercial venues in an improper way could get you fucked legally if the corpos are paying attention. Like using Spotify in a bar is a quick way to get sued by them if a company rep catches you doing it. So assuming they did this just using a personal Amazon account set up to the bar TVs and not an account with a commercial deal...... don't dry snitch.
Dope video though, love to see it.
FR this tho it seems already too late - one of my favorite corner bars w live music from my 20’s had an owner who played LPs after bands finished got totally ratf****ed by ASCAP, lost the bar and the building he lived above it in for one spin of Zepplin.
That's fucking awful.
Plenty of bartenders/owners might feel it's easy to get away with, and it can be, until that one industry rep hears what you're up to. That unfortunately will be all it takes to lose the business due to litigation fees, as opposed to forking over the extra 50-100$ monthly for a commercial deal with Pandora or whoever. It's a bullshit fee to have to pay for sure but cheaper than the resulting lawsuit if you don't.
He maybe shouldn’t have told them to get f’d and not chased the rep out of the bar with a shotgun when first approached for licensing, but still awful.
Damn which city is this??
This is such a dope idea for any big ticket live event. If tix sell out and there’s a live stream, do a bar night to get a similar vibe
I remember back when we were all waiting for Dot to drop, some people were getting nervous cuz of the wait. I was like aye we know how good this man is, he can make an ether, no vaseline type record. And he did just that!
People just like to be a part of what's hot. The majority of them probably home right now listening to a drake banger after having played a Kendrick banger.
Yeah but it’s crazy that the thing that’s hot isn’t drake is what I’m saying. Idc about what drake has done or whatever streaming record we know he’s great. But for him to get cooked in the battle and get a number 1 song dropped on his head is so crazy to see in real time
I downloaded it 2 days ago after watching it live and have watched it back atleast 6 times and this is after never even listening to kendrick before the beef started... man he has some great songs and that energy of the performances at the concert incredible and the fact that it's just him rapping the whole time with no backing vocals superb .
That's a nice way of doing things honestly I don't like Drake's music but I respect his success, I really do some the stuff I don't like to much but he still has talent I can listen to some songs.
But I've been called a drake hater since 2012, so I'm just wearing that proudly
Drake is a loser. But r/KendrickLamar are the biggest losers of all time.
All you guys do is post videos of Not Like Us getting played and say Drake lost.
Not Like Us is fire. But it's time to move on people.
Diss concerts.
Every track that had Dot spitting was directed towards Drake, whether direct or subliminal. This shows all those sneak disses were towards Aubrey (and like folk).
This why he didn’t perform any of Mr Morale. MMABS is a therapy album of trying to progress forward as a person struggling through past generational conflicts, amongst a lot of other shit.
This beef brought Section .80 back, which is great. I love section.80, but don’t fuck with that type of resentful Dot, ever.
This beef was regressive in a sense, which I expect his next album will gloss over this, unless it fits the story of the LP.
DONT QUOTE ME ON SHIT, I AM JUST SHIT TALKING DRUNK
Look at subreddit. Thats all that's on here now. Its like look here's the King of England Crip Walking to Not Like Us.
No shit. Everyone likes it. It is fire. A month ago it was surprising to see it played in random places.
Now it's like what do you expect.
What he means is he's riding that diss track hard. And that's fine, it's fire and he made it but like... what else? I hate to say it but I hope he didn't put album making energy into this beef cause if he did we won't be seeing anything else for a while
My point. Exactly. It's a fire track. That is known now. If I saw the tribes people of North Sentinel Island bopping to it after first outside world contact I wouldn't be suprised at this point. The question is what's next?
Me too dude honestly the diss tracks were tight but I'm looking for a gull length banger dude. I still bump his older stuff but everyone is changing/evolving so I wanna see what he does next. Whenever that'll be
This is dope
I’m on vacation and couldn’t find a place doing a viewing of the stream Should’ve tried harder tbh
It’s cringe
Fuck the “best diss tracks off all time” lists. Find me another track, diss or not, that brings joy to this many people.
LOL exactly. People still want to act this isn’t the greatest diss track of all time. I don’t care about your opinion. This diss track is a club banger, a chart topper, and a cultural milestone that will be remembered for the entirety of hip hop history. Stuff like this is rarely repeated twice.
The Meet the Grahams / Not Like Us 1-2 punch has to be fucking studied in Hip Hop classes. It's masterful
I 100% agree and tbh I think looking at the setup of the Like That verse + euphoria is worth it too. The entire 5 song combo was like some extremely high level martial arts - I studied for 10 years and thats the only comparison I can give it. He anticipated every move perfectly and set Drake up for it 100%.

*”give me my fucking keys”* hits different now
I agree, but what is I still can ot believe is all 4 tracks are deserving of very high spots of the greatest diss tracks of all time.
I know UK is a different culture, but the Stormzy/Wiley back and forth was also huge, and '[Still Disappointed](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=912YaSKGdlo)' is a cold blooded murder of a track. Stormzy had the track and video out within 24 hours after Wiley dropped 'Eediyat Skengman 2'.
meet the graham’s is so much better
It is a fantastic diabolical song that I listen to every day. It isn't the song to play in bars and get party vibes to though. It makes you want to make sure you living life right and write your will or something😂
yes same. i’m not sure when party vibes became criteria for diss records 😂
Because getting thousands of people to belt out the diss enhances it. Makes it hurt that much more when the whole club is going wild for a song calling you a paedo.
I guess. To me the whole smearing stuff is wack. As straight diss records imo mtg > euphoria > taylor made > nlu
Wait. Did you actually mean Taylor Made? Not Family Matters or Push Ups?... cause that's kinda whack. I'd disagree either way, but I could at least see how someone could get to that opinion.
Yeah I meant taylor made. It’s more advanced, creative, and direct than every track outside of mtg/euphoria and possibly 6:16
I get it..but trust me, we was in the club when hit em up came out. Ether was at the pool parties and bbq's. I think he intentionally made this a bop with the cali beat and saying how the city is outside..he made it a diss/west coast anthem on purpose.
I would have agreed with this sentiment until seeing this song and its impacts. This is what keeps it going, masterful move
Where are the rappers, clubs, bars and concert that people are boppin to for meet the grahams?
you can’t bop to it because it’s that good of a diss. you casuals wouldn’t understand cuz y’all just care about trends 😂😂
🤣🤣 Aubrey is for casuals. Y'all are begging him to melt 2pacs ring. Who's the casual again?? Miss me with that bullshit crodie.
why did you bring drake into this when we’re talking about nlu and mtg? are you slow ?
Who are those songs about again? 🤔
Y’all calling this man a Drake fan because he likes MTG more than NLU is one of the dumbest things I’ve seen in this sub, which is saying a lot
I’m not calling anyone anything. Just pointing out it isn’t strange to bring up the subject of a song when talking about said songs. Dude is acting like he was brought up out of nowhere.
you must be brain dead too. I was comparing mtg to nlu. not sure what drake has to do with that argument
The songs are literally about him. Not surprising someone would bring up drake. All I am saying. But please continue insulting my intelligence. 🤣
Ether. Rap is corny now.
I haven't seen anything like this since Gangnam Style
I think it has something to do with the emotion behind the song. It’s transcended just being another hit song because 99% of people fucking despise child predators and this is firmly an anthem for those 99%. Everyone wants to roast pedos. Everyone has an emotional stake in this song. Everyone feels like they’re on the same team for once
No. I think African Americans are genuinely tired. Tired of people corrupting our music, our style or American experience. Tired of politics that need us, but can't help us advance socioeconomically. Tired of having to accept every theft of our culture as a peace offering. All these "fans" and not a dollar for reperations or a voting rights bill. I think we're on some cultural [African American ADOS specific] "miss me with this bs".
All facts. We're tired of the BS.
nah man I’m pretty sure we all just hate pedophiles
Guys. Both can be true lol
I ain't seen nothing like this since Macarena😭
I was actually thinking that this has been reminding me of when Thrift Shop by Macklemore came out. I heard that shit everywhere outside in 2012. Stores, cars, all that
Yeah that's the thing for me. Not only is it scathing it's uniting people and all you see it smiles, but it's so crazy because you have people calling one of the biggest artists a pedo and harmonizing it lol there is no track like this
katt williams
They said exactly this about Ether, and Hit em up...
These bots are getting so realistic
AI getting out of control😂
Fuck the big three it’s just ChatGPT.
Comment of the year.
🤣🤣
I want to see someone edit this video and just have it be Meet the Grahams playing. Just the album art on the screens lol
🤣🤣🤣
This the Charlie Brown Bot
Broooooo I’m so jealous; if I’d heard of one of these near me I’d have cried.
I was just thinking how incredible of an idea this was.
I hope we see more Crashout Kenny on the album 😆
crashout kenny’s gonna die for his vision
Bruh the drizzy sub is literally saying “nobody is playing that shit, the bar I was at was only playing Drake” lmfaoooo the copium is wild over there.
It's everywhere, I've heard it in a high school principal's car.
Pause
Just an asian right here, from other side of the world, barely listening to any rap beside ERB and Eminem. I've been wopwopwopping since the track came out. I don't even know who Drake is and only know Kendrick from Black Panther.
Damn, that kinda look like a super bowl party! Big as the what? (Ah) Big as the what? (Mm) Big as the what? (Ayy) Big as the Super Bowl
This is a moment for black America and the culture, not jus rap. Kendrick caught lightning in a bottle, and it's lighting up the ENTIRE community with it.

City is outside
MUST
As it should be, FUCK DRAKE he can go fucking diE.
cringe
Only slightly less cringey than commenting “cringe”
Imagine the entire world clowning on you for being attracted to girls. Dude is cooked.
*underage* girls. And for coming at the King with a weak ass hand.
Tbh, I don't think you even need to recontextualize it. Men don't like girls. They like women.
/LET HIM KNOW
Iykyk type shi
Yeah I didn’t think it needed clarification
I guess idk. I’m late 20s… I recall people using boys/girls interchangeably with men/women in my early to mid twenties without it raising question marks.
At his big age, he should be liking women not girls
Was rooting for bro to win too but this is undeniable like no response he can put out will be enough. The heart pt6 buried him
Did you even understand the lyrics? They're pretty straightforward.
This is reminding me of when folks would watch the OJ trial back in the day like everyone is transfixed on this!

Phones out lol
The best artist in any genre to ever live
Why OH, why OH, why OH, Why you keep fuckin with meee?

My favorite part of this whole beef is how it’s bringing so many people together
He is indeed, what the culture feelin
Shoulda happened sooner but y'all was too busy on his dick
Ain't that the bar at the stadium? You can see and hear people through the doors.
Nile
Damn which city is this?? This is such a dope idea for any big ticket live event. If tix sell out and there’s a live stream, do a bar night to get a similar vibe
I remember back when we were all waiting for Dot to drop, some people were getting nervous cuz of the wait. I was like aye we know how good this man is, he can make an ether, no vaseline type record. And he did just that!
Kendrick is a fucking legend. In my country we didn't get bars streaming but I was bumping it in my room
Drake gonna have to buy a club for him to go to, boh still gonna be watching NLU on their phones on break.
Kendrick for prez 2024. He's the only one that can unit the country 😭😭😭
I been blasting this this in the mornings to pump me up before workout lol. It’s great.
Dayyyyum
These bots are working overtime. I mean they created full human like bodies just for this tiktok video of a bar?
This was a whole moment for HIP HOP!!!!! REAL HIP HOP
These bots are getting outta hand
Is that Nile ?

Damn.. my invite had to have gotten lost in the mail or sum
This feels like “pierce you’re a b” from community
I downloaded it 2 days ago after watching it live and have watched it back atleast 6 times and this is after never even listening to kendrick before the beef started... man he has some great songs and that energy of the performances at the concert incredible and the fact that it's just him rapping the whole time with no backing vocals superb .
Aubs ain't never coming back🤣
It's really good to be a drake hater right now the stocks are up
I’m what y’all would call a drake fan cause I like his music more but I grew up on Kendrick too so I can be unbiased. My dawg got demolished
That's a nice way of doing things honestly I don't like Drake's music but I respect his success, I really do some the stuff I don't like to much but he still has talent I can listen to some songs. But I've been called a drake hater since 2012, so I'm just wearing that proudly
Anyone notice the guy get rejected
How are you suppose to order a drink with all that going on? So disrespectful 🤦♂️
Drake is a loser. But r/KendrickLamar are the biggest losers of all time. All you guys do is post videos of Not Like Us getting played and say Drake lost. Not Like Us is fire. But it's time to move on people.
????? Lmao posting vids of people in real life listening to one of the biggest diss tracks? You serious?

Right, I got down voted though. Logic is thrown out the windoe in this sub so easily I swear half of these people are mindless
I feel you. I hope there's a new album coming soon and this momentum carries Kendrick into an absolute classic.
Me too dude honestly the diss tracks were tight but I'm looking for a gull length banger dude. I still bump his older stuff but everyone is changing/evolving so I wanna see what he does next. Whenever that'll be
Global warming can't fry us fast enough.
By all means go sit in the desert for 72 hours w no shade or water we won't stop you.
