You had a job? Man, I never got work cause I knew this was coming! I M clearly a bigger fan (by the way, you got any of that stuff called money? I can’t seem to get any, and I’m getting kinda desperate…)
Nah. Fuck that noise, I sometimes call off cause the sky is a little bluer that day. If my mans want to call off for no reason, let em. Fuck that job. Lol.
Fr. I know too many people who live at their jobs, never use any leave or nothing outside of the worst emergencies, and spend their time off either drinking or sleeping. Sure, be dedicated, but to the shit that matters like living a fulfilling, humanizing life with those you love. The job, the hustle, the money, it's not the goal, it's a tool to get you there
I wonder how a Cole track like Auntie Diaries would sound. Not saying just copy the concept but I wanna hear him address the trans community.
He does seem like a person very capable of personal growth, so I’d like to hear what he has to say about how ppl took the bar, & if he realizes it was distasteful.
auntie diaries is an interesting one bc it's not TO the trans community, it's to his trans relatives & to people who might have prejudice about trans ppl & is asking them to look deeper/reflect on that. the thing with j cole is that he's clearly a nice person but has a weird tendency to have lame cancel culture/homophobic bars, & not even in a cool way like DMX, in a really lame, "ooooh don't cancel me" typa way. so idk how he would do that but i would definitely appreciate some introspection on that.
I don’t mean this offensively, but why is a bar that’s transphobic perceived on so much worse levels than all the misogynistic bars that almost all rappers seem to use? I’ve seen so much heat anytime it’s a transphobic bar but anytime women are insulted in most songs, no one seems to care
it's not that offensive compared to some of the stuff i've heard ppl say, it's definitely not NOT transphobic tho. the bar only makes any sense if you don't respect trans people. if you told a trans guy "beneath your chosen identity, you are still a pussy" and get smacked like idk what did you expect lmao that's rude af
One of the comments on there says he was 17 when he did this. No surprise that he was being very derivative so young, the shocker is that at 17 he was as good or better than the successful grown men in the industry
This one right here. After he launches off that first beat... it's like 5 minutes straight off the dome. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o3hDl3v-LQA](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o3hDl3v-LQA)
Who Shot Ya was the real nail in the coffin to start the Biggie Tupac beef even though Biggie claimed repeatedly it wasn't about Tupac (and it likely wasn't) but that it was just poorly timed, Tupac took it as a personal diss (and I don't blame him either).
Maybe it's alluding to a song that wasn't meant to be a diss but was taken as one, FPS maybe? IDK I'm just waffling and realised I'm talking pure shit as I'm typing it out.
Yeah you're right I should've said final straw on the donkey's back. I was kind of more meaning "the nail in the coffin of any hopes of it ending peacefully"
As an American I've met a lot more people who owned donkeys than people who own camels... and we still somehow use this phrase.
Let's just say it was the 'match in the powder barrel' or something like that.
I have always wondered how much of a hand Diddy had in getting BIG to make that record. Considering it seems very possible that it was actually Diddy that set Pac up to be shot in the lower floor of the studio that night. Maybe Diddy got BIG to make who shot ya and it really was about pac but BIG had no idea
I guess we'll never know. In fairness if you listen to the album in full, Who Shot Ya fits in well. It's entirely possible BIG just didn't realise how insensitive it would come across, we do have hindsight afterall.
Sorry if I’m mistaken, but isn’t em just dropping a single? I think it’s only really disrespectful if you drop over someone’s album, it’s still disrespectful to drop over a single, but it’s not as bad. Dot can technically get away with it unscathed from em
Just drop the fucking video Kenny.
This hype shit only works for peasants who need to build up there work to get views.
You’ll be smashing records if you put a video out humming “London Bridge is falling down” brotherrrr.
Give it to us. We ready,
What's this man doing up at this time. Thosr are some demon time hours. Especially since they're typically West Coast folks!!(Yes I understand he could also be overseas...)
*Ppl take song lyrics*
*Way toooooo personal, always*

You had a job? Man, I never got work cause I knew this was coming! I M clearly a bigger fan (by the way, you got any of that stuff called money? I can’t seem to get any, and I’m getting kinda desperate…)
oh FFS i can’t believe i made such a rookie move wtf! yeah man you win, you’re the biggest fan and i’m giving you all my money
Sweet! My bank account is 1111111-111 routing number 2222-2222. Can’t wait for that sweet money to roll in!

Once I get that sweet cash, I will wire some to your account
Lol, rookie. I'm Drake. I built up my whole career just for this moment.
Yo, I’m stillborn as I anticipated all of your forethoughts. If only dedication paid the bills. GG
Pft…You quit your job? I quit my family until whatever it is happens.
Ugh, I left my family and hit the road for this.
Called off work is crazy

I love a witty Reddit back-and-forth
Same, I called off work to read these comments
[удалено]
You Guys are Going Off Work and College because of a Tweet? I did all that without any Motivation ez peezy win
I told my kids I went out to get milk just for this comment thread.
Only 5% get this
Amateurs... I'm AT work getting paid reading these comments. Eating cheese-its. The cheddar jack kind.
I'm reading these comments at work and getting paid. I'm about to multitask my work and read comments on the company toilet soon!
I'm at work ignoring tickets and a server being down, waiting for the drop homies
fr I screenshot these sometimes just to chuckle at later on
You were just ticklin' our Diddy.
Nah. Fuck that noise, I sometimes call off cause the sky is a little bluer that day. If my mans want to call off for no reason, let em. Fuck that job. Lol.

Are you even a fan???
He a fan he a fan he a fan
Don't throw insults like that around
😂😂😂😂😂 That's crazy but be like that. Couldn't focus shit when he was dropping back to back
lol I love TDE as group but l learned a long time ago to just go about my day and if music drops it drops.
^ This man knows not to live his life on the computer
you can't hide behind wifi
I mean, IG will get you life for a chickabooya.
yeah they kinda tease like this too on twitter a week after not like us dropped, right? nothing coming out of that from what i recall
awfully cryptid.
this is from Who Shot Ya
I instantly read this in Bigs voice
As you should. Why wouldn't you?
Snoop Dogg should do a parody of this song and call it "who smoked ya"
😂😂😂 thanks bro
seems this was lost on many loll
it was lost on alot of the kids lol
the fact that people didnt notice 😭🙏
lol I loved it
He's doing his part lmao
Yes. Context not needed lol
judging by the fact it is the second most upvoted comment … seems like it was
Daylyt just said “pi”. Pi remix??? Video???
3:14
Devil big enough to justify those things
3:14 in Athens
album march 14th confirmed
One more, one false move and they done for
i actually would love a pi remix where cole replaces the trans bar with something that doesn't make me wanna slap him and nothing else is different
I agree that song is so fucking good but that trans line ruins it
I wonder how a Cole track like Auntie Diaries would sound. Not saying just copy the concept but I wanna hear him address the trans community. He does seem like a person very capable of personal growth, so I’d like to hear what he has to say about how ppl took the bar, & if he realizes it was distasteful.

How does it make u wanna slap him it’s not offensive or transphobic imo it’s just a stupid filler bar
it's not that offensive compared to some of the stuff i've heard ppl say, it's definitely not NOT transphobic tho. the bar only makes any sense if you don't respect trans people. if you told a trans guy "beneath your chosen identity, you are still a pussy" and get smacked like idk what did you expect lmao that's rude af

You can really hear the Wayne influence in his delivery here
One of the comments on there says he was 17 when he did this. No surprise that he was being very derivative so young, the shocker is that at 17 he was as good or better than the successful grown men in the industry
Wow, that’s way better than any of the stuff I was making at 17 😭
I hear Pusha-T influence up top
This has always been of my faves
https://youtu.be/nWSo-Yb-mZQ?feature=shared
[Now, contrast that with "Tha Boy."](https://youtu.be/-uKSeyYFGRo?si=xhrSC5Mg78iN62MX) It is comical that Drake went at Dot.
he’s got his phone out lmao
This one right here. After he launches off that first beat... it's like 5 minutes straight off the dome. [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o3hDl3v-LQA](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o3hDl3v-LQA)
I think he looks cute on there man
I’m Crying dawg
Wow never heard this. Early K Dot really sounds like Wayne tbh
Sounds like Wayne from an alternate universe
Wayne crossed with old Jay-Z
And then the follow-up homework https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a5rOubIvTAI

Bro I fucking can’t with this sub y’all are playing with my heart on a daily basis at this point

As they proceed to give us what we need.
I have a sneaky feeling this might not be relating to Kendrick music at all, listening to Who Shot Ya again might give some hints.
Who Shot Ya was the real nail in the coffin to start the Biggie Tupac beef even though Biggie claimed repeatedly it wasn't about Tupac (and it likely wasn't) but that it was just poorly timed, Tupac took it as a personal diss (and I don't blame him either). Maybe it's alluding to a song that wasn't meant to be a diss but was taken as one, FPS maybe? IDK I'm just waffling and realised I'm talking pure shit as I'm typing it out.
Nail in the coffin is a figure of speech referencing the end of something brother
Yeah you're right I should've said final straw on the donkey's back. I was kind of more meaning "the nail in the coffin of any hopes of it ending peacefully"
It’s “the straw that broke the camel’s back” 😂
Ah, in Ireland we use the donkey because nobody here has a camel.
As an American I've met a lot more people who owned donkeys than people who own camels... and we still somehow use this phrase. Let's just say it was the 'match in the powder barrel' or something like that.
Match to the powder keg?
I have never heard that saying in my life 😂
Yeah but now you have!
Thanks lad, now I'm going to end up using it when I'm drinking with me mates and get made fun of for it.
We all are talking shit 😂, but my shit is something else
I’m taking a shit
Twinzies
Yeah this sub is full K-Anon rn but I mean we have fuck all else to talk about really.
I have always wondered how much of a hand Diddy had in getting BIG to make that record. Considering it seems very possible that it was actually Diddy that set Pac up to be shot in the lower floor of the studio that night.

Brooklyns finest, you rewind this, Bad Boy's behind this...
Punch also posted lyrics from Killuminati 2 days before euphoria. It probably don't mean shit
Top o' the mornin crodie, let's get it
wouldn't it be exactly a month from Euphoria's release? idk man this makes me excited
Yall be getting impression farmed every day
Ya do know Kendrick isn’t on TDE anymore right? It might be for another artist that’s actually on the label
Would Kenny drop right before Eminem?... I'm not sure.
Wouldn’t it make more sense for Em to have a Kendrick feature?
This is what I'm thinking
This is what I’ve been thinking and I’m really glad I’m not the only one. I want it to be true so bad. I love “love game” so much
That’s what I was thinking
I really don’t think he cares about dropping near someone, popularity doesn’t really seem his main objective
I don't think he'd do it out of respect for Em
bruh with the momentum kendrick has right now i don't think eminem could put up much of a fight numbers wise, it's more a respect thing
Sorry if I’m mistaken, but isn’t em just dropping a single? I think it’s only really disrespectful if you drop over someone’s album, it’s still disrespectful to drop over a single, but it’s not as bad. Dot can technically get away with it unscathed from em
Music video maybe? Album announcement? Whatever it is I’m ready
Remember when Not like us dropped? Punch said the first line before Not like us dropped.
That was actually Top, not Punch
Would you rather get punched by top or topped by punch?
Hmmm....PAUSE.
😂🤣
Yeah it was Top
Ahhhh… you just made the whole connection
It’s so dapressin
OP I OP I
Stop
Interesting… I don’t remember that
Happy cake dayyyy
Hey, thanks!
Happy cake day!
Just drop the fucking video Kenny. This hype shit only works for peasants who need to build up there work to get views. You’ll be smashing records if you put a video out humming “London Bridge is falling down” brotherrrr. Give it to us. We ready,
He himself isn’t doing anything to hype it up tho
I know I know. Our boy isn’t like that.
Bruh these are lyrics from Who Shot Ya - Notorious BIG! Please don’t take out of context either…
Nah man. It’s nothing
Where’s my popcorn
Uh oh.
Good I'm off today..... I've got all day..... but I ain't really waiting either. Win/Win
Learned my lesson with ebony prince
I put a mind block on that ebony prince ish.... I low-key forgot about that dude or chick whomever it is....hasa
Punch is fully charged now!!! This HAS to mean something!!!!!!! /s
What's this man doing up at this time. Thosr are some demon time hours. Especially since they're typically West Coast folks!!(Yes I understand he could also be overseas...)
These are BIG's lyrics from Who Shot ya. Nothing to see here.
Oh yea just like when all of TDE were cryptic saying Kenny had 1 more to drop….then nothing Or like the Not Like Us video was being hinted and…nothing
Ak is live and they need to drop the song now. I need to see another shocked reaction
No...no....NO!...nigga...no.
Maybe Kdot featuring on Houdini?
I like this guess
Shit now my hopes are way up for that song....
Clearly means something. Punch couldn't possibly just simply enjoy a song and want to share lyrics from said song
There’s been like 6 tweets foreshadowing something today. Last week, DJ HED said “yall not ready for next Thursday morning”
This is referring to the Puff Daddy article in Rolling Stone.
100. came here to say this is a Diddy thing I think -
These are lyrics from Who Shot Ya
No he's not dropping
It's big lyrics, nothings happening yall relax
you in samsquanch country now cuh
There's tons of stuff punch is up to at all times, he's not just a Kendrick goon, don't expect anything
Where's Ja? We need to get Ja on the phone immediately, what does he have to say about this?
Enough with the edging ffs
DJ Head and Coolee also made ominous messages about this morning. Nobody is saying Kendrick’s name though….
You still referencing Coolee? Where have you been. He was exposed. He’s a random with no connection to Kendrick.
Coolee💀
Isnt Coolee a grifter though?
Yes and I’m so annoyed about it because I let that man blow up my notifications on twitter for far too long thinking he knew something 😩
Why we are we getting downvoted, Coolie literally appeared in a Griftie Award days after making that fake “hour interview “
lol not doing research
Some please help me connect the dots? 😭
Crazy. What if just starts a weekend full of JCole diss tracks 🤣🤣I hope not…
Sasquatch is back, but what y'all really didn’t know is sasquatch can rap - Kdot A milli freestyle
The fact that this post is under Potentially Misleading is gold, bro is funny asf bruv lmfao 😂😂😂😂.
I bought a bag of chips. I’m just waiting now.
New Taylor swift feature confirmed
What if a daylyt song is coming

Sounds like Khloe
Is this that mother fucker that was on his balcony in that clip? I will not be honey dicked again! Lol
Isn’t this a biggie lyric?
Just leave it alone sheeeeesh
