The Drake vs Kendrick Beef has way bigger cultural phenomenon’s going on than what most are talking about. Coming off the Kendrick grammy sweep on Feb.2nd, and on the eve of Kendricks Super Bowl performance, Speech shares his thoughts on why this battle was anything but normal.
First of all, there's some debate about whether Drake really lost the rap battle, but Speech feels that there is no debate that he lost a few cultural battles. (And not just "Hip Hop Culture") There was no way to beat the age old phenomenon of a bunch of crabs becoming resentful of another crabs consistent success and jumping at the chance to bring him down. The "crab in a barrel mentality" where people team up to pull anyone that’s rising up back down to their level to avoid feeling inadequate themselves.
Never in the history of rap, did so many artist simultaneously try to snuff out the momentum of one artist. Speech goes deeper into al of this and more....What's your thoughts?
