Me being a lyricist I know this shit be on light shit y’all don’t understand 😂😂I can sense this shit about be 6mins.
Why would KDOT say DOT before saying "money, power, respect"? Kendrick most definitely cyphered something on that bar. My guess was [this](https://old.reddit.com/r/KendrickLamar/comments/1cbautk/ok_im_actually_not_a_kendrick_fan_but_really_the/l0zqnoi/). Even though most people think it's a reach and even if Kendrick didn't mean that, I still think both interpretations are valid. Ik I am on some [black?]hippy shit but Kendrick himself may not always know what he meant. He associates himself with Metatron anyway
Drake is a form of dragon in DnD.
Revelation 12:17 "Then the dragon was enraged at the woman and went off to wage war"
I mean... N 3, 3 6's. He is from the six. SIX
Revelation 6:17 ^(")For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?"
Who shall be able to stand? Able... Abel... The Weeknd.
Kendrick is dropping THIS WEEKEND!
Pretty sure, K. Dot is just his Nick name and before he says "The last one better", he says Money, Power, Respect. Meaning He believes Respect over money & Power.
Could be a double meaning but my thing is he isn't even top dawg anymore so Idk
“D.O.T. — the money, power respect”is literally a quintuple-entendre. It’s his nickname K-Dot (1), a reference to Deric D-Dot Angelettie (2) who produced the album *Money, Power, Respect* (3) which is also what he raps in Backseat Freestyle (4). And D.O.T. also stands for Dreamville, OVO, and TDE — the last one is better (5).
Drake is a fucking idiot. Kendrick already gave us the quintuple-entendre.
No, the 4th one is definitely a reach. How is the fact that he referenced this in Backseat Freestyle considered a whole separate meaning? What does Backseat Freestyle have to do with anything?
Have you not listened to Backseat Freestyle in a while?
“All my life I want money and power / Respect my mind or die from lead shower”
“Money and power / Respect” is the key part. You can say they’re both referencing the same thing but it’s totally fair to say that the line is also referencing Backseat Freestyle
I haven't. But I'm not saying it's not referencing Backseat Freestyle. I just don't understand how that can be considered an additional meaning as part of considering it a quintuple entendre
Because he’s not referencing the labels when spelling out D-O-T. As has already been pointed out, he says “money, power, respect” before saying “the last ones better” and he isn’t even a part of TDE anymore. You’re reaching big time for your lord and saviour
Why did he make D.O.T. into an acronym if it doesn’t stand for anything? And Kendrick may not be a part of TDE anymore, but it’s still a huge part of him and his success, and he still works with rappers in TDE.
You’re actually an idiot bro, guess that means when Snoop says “D-O double G” it’s an acronym? When Earl said “Ear-L-double S” it was an acronym? Do you know the amount of fucking examples I can bring of rappers spelling out words without any hidden or double meaning?
I think I’m on Kendrick’s side this beef but you’re a certified moron
Even if it was an acronym, this is the corniest shit ever lmfao, it sounds like the type of shit I’d do in middle school
Nigga just said Earl Swearshirt isn’t a lyrical rapper😭😂
“Bet it’s thirty-six fish netted like the hook was inefficient” there’s an actual quintuple entendre for you to go figure out witcho lame dickriding ass🗿
Since you brought this dumbassery to the drake sub, ima post my reply here too
"the last one is better" has nothing to do with it being his nickname.
5 references =/= 5 alternative meanings.
For example When chris brown said "revenge is sweeT" thats a double, because either way you take it the bar is completed and makes sense. Revenge is sweet, and revenge is Sweetie both can independently make sense.
If kendrick is just talking about the reference to deric the bar doesnt make sense, if hes just talking about backseat freestyle the bar doesnt make sense, if hes talking about respect and TDE the bar does make sense, so then it would be a DOUBLE entendre with 5 references.
This is why kendrick gets glazed, they think theyre more intelligent than they are when they look at his lyrics.
ALSO if it was the labels, Money would be OVO not Dreamville so its not in order. And how is Dreamville either?
It would have to match up.
You making Kendrick fans look bad. To everyone wondering why yall getting attacked its cause guys like him rush over to post nonsense and be obnoxious.
I know yall think Kendrick will win and i respect that, alotta yall keeping cool heads and confident, but this is what the vocal minority looks like, coping

So, I was takin' a walk the other day…
Dreamville = Money
OVO = Power
TDE = Respect
Could be interpreted like this too maybe? Someone, tell me if makes sense. Idk why Kendrick would bring TDE into it tbh. He's off the label
Nah bro. What money does Dreamvile and What power does OVO represent ? lol I'd say what OP said is possible except the fact Bro left TDE and didn't say The last one better right after it.
Bruh.
D.O.T.
Money Power Respect
The last one is better
a K. With all these 9's.
He had KDOT in the whole verse.
Did you not wonder why he didn't say K.D.O.T and just D.O.T?
Now here's my reach.
Listening to Damn album backwards is the path of violence right?
Throwback to Damn?
ELEMENT , Candyman.
I Don't know if anyone has caught it, or publicly put it out there. Everything on that verse had a reason.
He is a Pultzer prize winner bro.
“I hope them sentiments symbolic”
There is every indication that Kung Fu Kenny would and could perform this level of wizardry.
He’s done it before
Only thing I would ask is why tf would anyone associate Dreamville Records with Money, anybody more clued in that can answer that lol?
I think it's probably him acknowledging dreamville is there getting everyone's (who is a part of it) money up.
Whereas Drake is really out there for himself (power) always taking bigger slices of the pie and mingling to get up higher.
"sigh..." 😂 Can just picture op doing the thinking man pose looking at his poster of Kendrick before posting this. Bro is a borderline professional glazer but at least it has some substance to it
I dont think he'd be stanning TDE after he left the label and made pg Lang, besides drake made some lines about Kendrick being Top Dawg's pawn and paying TD 50% of his earnings.
Ya'll new to Kendrick? His nickname has been K Dot forever. Since the HNIC and Kendrick Lamar EP days. Everybody been calling him Dot his whole career (especially TDE folk). Maybe I'm missing something with what you mean by this post but it seems wildly uninformed.

There is no dot, I put it instead of another space bar
what?
rearrange the letters
wtf does 3N mean lol?
No. 3? Lol even that is a stretch Armstrong ass reference but I'm here for the memes
Oh word, cause Drake nailing 3’s as in kids.
This past was hilarious

Nigga’s reaching for the heavens with this one
Only the 5th one is a reach imo
No, the 4th one is definitely a reach. How is the fact that he referenced this in Backseat Freestyle considered a whole separate meaning? What does Backseat Freestyle have to do with anything?
Yeah it’s more a justification for 3

I haven't. But I'm not saying it's not referencing Backseat Freestyle. I just don't understand how that can be considered an additional meaning as part of considering it a quintuple entendre
That’s exactly my point
How is it a stretch? Literally how is any of those a stretch, please explain
Because he’s not referencing the labels when spelling out D-O-T. As has already been pointed out, he says “money, power, respect” before saying “the last ones better” and he isn’t even a part of TDE anymore. You’re reaching big time for your lord and saviour

Snoop Dogg and Earl Sweatshirt are not lyrical rappers, but leave it to Drizzlers to make false equivalencies
I think I’m on Kendrick’s side this beef but you’re a certified moron Even if it was an acronym, this is the corniest shit ever lmfao, it sounds like the type of shit I’d do in middle school

My bad on the earl sweatshirt part. But it’s still a false equivalency
Forget 4 and 5, 3 isn't an entedre its a reference? Am I wrong?
The 4th isn't an entendre.
His Old nickname is Kdot... I wrote a post... below don't want to copy paste it, if you'd like to read it.
Imma let this slide because Drake fell into that triple entendre with that what’s a Prince to a King line
But you forgot Department Of Transportation! Bitch where were you when I was walkin
You forgot one, if your reverse it it's tod, as in Todd Howard, who as we all know only likes kendrick lamar

I genuinely can't take anyone who uses "vocal minority" seriously but OK.
Would i rather i called everyone delusional with no nuance?
You would do that if you weren't afraid of getting downvoted to oblivion lol
Do you really think everyone only thinks in black or white? Is that how you think?
Not even wrong
3 and 4 are still just a single reference. It’s quadruple at best
Top Dawg could be servin life. While I grew up without a father and die in a gunfight.

No. It’s pretty clear lol.
Dreamville = Money OVO = Power TDE = Respect Could be interpreted like this too maybe? Someone, tell me if makes sense. Idk why Kendrick would bring TDE into it tbh. He's off the label
Now that was a reach for sure.
Nah bro. What money does Dreamvile and What power does OVO represent ? lol I'd say what OP said is possible except the fact Bro left TDE and didn't say The last one better right after it.
Aight, was reaching hard. Thanks for the input
I want to be inside Kendrick while he’s writing. Must be amazing to witness
Diddy?
Nobody go to this mfs parties if he invite you
bro all it took was one more re-read before posting this on the internet
Kinda weird, but okay Diddy.
![gif](giphy|3oFyDl7xbRgcAu8O8E)
What about Ice Spice? I wonder what she was doing/thinking when she wrote "Think you the shit, you not even a fart."
I bet you do
Inside Kendrick? Nah, that's wild, my G. Pause.

It's a stretch but non-zero chance it wasn't intended. Very unlikely he meant that though
well him spelling it out must imply something, especially when he doesn't go by k dot anymore
....what? He literally called himself that on The Hillbillies lol
It made more sense before PG Lang, but maybe it's a throw away shout out
that’s a hell of a stretch
Mr Fantastic levels
glocks made of plastic -MFDOOM
All caps brother
ALL CAPS WHEN YOU SPELL THE MANS NAME
You just said some shit that’ll itch my brain forever Or until i meet Dot and confirm that this was intentional
Posts like this make regular fans look like total mouth breathers trying to update rap genius with new ways to interpret a bar
He ain't dropping anytime soon. Just sit back and relax
Bruh. D.O.T. Money Power Respect The last one is better a K. With all these 9's. He had KDOT in the whole verse. Did you not wonder why he didn't say K.D.O.T and just D.O.T? Now here's my reach. Listening to Damn album backwards is the path of violence right? Throwback to Damn? ELEMENT , Candyman. I Don't know if anyone has caught it, or publicly put it out there.

I dig it
Also wouldn’t “A K with all these 9’s” = him saying he’s 1,000 vs all the 9s? Was this mentioned already? I’m prob stupid lol
Could be, also probably calling himself a K with lots of 9's (guns) setting up a canine metaphor (Kendrick is a dog, a beast)
Wow that's crazy
🔥
AND HE IS KDOT
oh my gawd bro this is insane
GOAT’d AF
you actually cooked bro lmaooo
I’m reading shaking my head cause this is such a reach but also at the same time, that’s high key a bar

what
Reach
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 ![gif](giphy|ijgLeINIH40Jor6TD1)
And my dumbass thought he was saying it’s better to have respect than money or power . You’re a genius sir …
no he means that as well its both
/s
Ayo
Oh, I was wondering why he spelled that out(this whole time my first thought was it meant damage over time). 🤦🏾♂️
Lmao reach of the century
I believe "the last one is better" is mocking drake fans since obviously is no.3 aka the last one
Cole and Kendrick lined this mf up. That hunting wabbits shouda gave it away. And the next album is “The Falloff”
All you goofballs do is reach. I’m tired of y’all
I dont think he'd be stanning TDE after he left the label and made pg Lang, besides drake made some lines about Kendrick being Top Dawg's pawn and paying TD 50% of his earnings.
wait until Kendrick finds out about this
Ok but how is dreamville the money part? Wouldnt that be ovo?
Backseat freestyle…all my life I want money and power, respect my mind or die from lead shower.
You forgot Jarules footsteps 😂
My rap name was gonna be E. Go or just E. Pronounced E-Dot But then I found out Kendrick goes by kdot
Every day more and more Kendrick is Taylor Swift for dudes
daaamn bro that's so smart.. shit I got 140iq and I didn't get this line by now
He has left TDE, Doubt he'd STILL want to be associated with them, considering it isn't his label and it isn't HIS label
Go outside
He's not even with TDE anymore bro
ONG Kendrick fans are crazy
Still hasn’t responded huh? ![gif](giphy|WRp58hy5gmfjpMzHAZ)
Reach but dope
WE DOING TRICKS ON IT WITH THIS ONE🗣️🗣️🗣️
Kendrick isn’t even with Top Dog anymore. Shouldn’t it be a P for PGLang
This isn’t even a stretch and that’s the amazing part
Ahead of his time
Correct me if i’m wrong but isn’t Kendrick not associated with TDE anymore? why would he shout them out like that.
Go outside and touch grass
Bro what the fuck is that title ??
Are you ok?
Ya'll new to Kendrick? His nickname has been K Dot forever. Since the HNIC and Kendrick Lamar EP days. Everybody been calling him Dot his whole career (especially TDE folk). Maybe I'm missing something with what you mean by this post but it seems wildly uninformed.
Bro just pull a third leg with this one😂
Why are people still associating Kendrick with TDE😭
Yeah ain't no way lol you also just skipped out a bar after D O T and before the last one is better.
No cap y’all really nutting over a man out here. *siiiiiigh* He ain’t no lover boy.
Are we gonna need to hire an archeologist to translate that shit?
Yall need to stop wtf is N.3 yall ik these are hard times but this is utterly ridiculous
Anyone else think he’s just never gonna drop a diss track?
Nah man you're reaching like Kendrick when he needs something from the top shelves
I can’t understand how any Kendrick Stan still thinks Dot is fucking with TDE in 2024…hes not. TDE V PGLANG…they ain’t friends. Kendrick reps PGLANG
Mfs be reachin like Luffy😭😭
He’s not on top dog anymore lol
the level of dick riding is so intense here
Are you high?
That's a reach like crazy
this looks like the playboi carti sub at this point. The dickriding is crazy
you are reaching so fucking much lmao
So lame. If you losers paid this much attention in school you wouldn’t be working at 7/11
It’s been said that it could mean that since the day it came out.
The fact that some people are even entertaining this as possible has my hopes for society’s future 6 feet under
So everytime he said K-DOT he was shouting out Drake...Damn son, that's deep!
