M gillespie, Good.
Speaker 2 (00:11):
Morning, Jonesy, thank you so much for advancing my career.
As you're on the powerful airwaves today, we're talking about
what I feel I was destined to talk about with
you too, the beef between Drake and Kendley Kendrick Lamar.
It's this enormous feud in the hip hop world that's
just blown up. It's gotten violent, it's gotten messy. But
(00:33):
let's take it back to the beginning in case you
are not familiar with the two of these guys.
Speaker 3 (00:38):
Kendrick Lamar, he is a rappers.
Speaker 4 (00:40):
One of the biggest in the world, isn't it.
Speaker 2 (00:42):
But they both are one of the biggest in the world. Kendrick,
he's from the West coast of the US.
Speaker 3 (00:47):
This is what he sounds like.
Speaker 1 (00:51):
Off my stage.
Speaker 4 (00:55):
Of sud We beat the right words.
Speaker 3 (00:59):
Then I know what the producers asked me if I
wanted to get any grabs.
Speaker 2 (01:03):
I thought, oh, I don't know if we could play
this legally on the radio at this hour.
Speaker 3 (01:07):
So that's Ken, That's Kendrick and this is Drake.
Speaker 2 (01:13):
He's a Canadian, he's a former child child actor on
the Grassy Junior High So they're from very different worlds.
Drake is kind of from this sort of young Hollywood
entertainment actor world, and then Kendrick is the sort of
gritty artist from the underground.
Speaker 3 (01:31):
Came up, you know, in that old school kind of
wrap way.
Speaker 2 (01:35):
But they are two of the biggest in the world,
if not the biggest in the world, and that's what
this beef has been all about.
Speaker 3 (01:42):
They were referred to sort.
Speaker 2 (01:43):
Of often as being in the Big three, the top
three in the hip hop industry. So Drake, Kendrick and
this other rapp called J Cole don't worry too much
about him.
Speaker 3 (01:52):
But that's just some background for it.
Speaker 2 (01:53):
Or J Cole and Drake released a song where they
spoke about being the top three and the biggest in
the world and whatever.
Speaker 3 (02:01):
Kendrick didn't like that. He didn't like being compared to them.
He didn't like being.
Speaker 2 (02:05):
Placed on the same level. He wants to be on
his own level. So he came out and was like,
there is no top three, it's just me. I am
the King, and he released a distrack that sounds like this, say.
Speaker 1 (02:16):
Drake, I hear you like him young, you better. I
haven't got to sell black one, Jinny bish the top
torm in there in love. Just make sure you had
your little sister from them. Look they tell me chelms
that only want to get your hammy nowns and pardon
you have to pardon plan with his nose now and Buck,
I've got a weird case.
Speaker 4 (02:31):
Why is he around? So the far love boys.
Speaker 1 (02:34):
So the five Pedophiles is calling him a pedophile.
Speaker 3 (02:38):
So Hendrick has gone there stopped that music. Thank you wrong,
He's called Drake a pedophile.
Speaker 2 (02:43):
This has a lot to do with the fact that
Drake has been accused.
Speaker 3 (02:46):
Of grooming young women and young artists before.
Speaker 2 (02:49):
There was famously, a few years ago an exchange between
him and the act of Millie Bobby Brown.
Speaker 3 (02:54):
She was in Stranger Things Child Star got really really.
Speaker 2 (02:57):
Famous when she was like twelve years old, and she
said that Drake and her would text sometimes and he'd
give her advice about boys and dating advice.
Speaker 3 (03:05):
And then a similar story came out with Billie Eilish
when she was in her early teens. So there was this.
Speaker 2 (03:10):
Kind of gray area over Drake, and then that's what
Kendrick is talking about.
Speaker 4 (03:15):
Now he's forgetting the gray area has gone hard.
Speaker 3 (03:17):
Yeah, he's gone hard.
Speaker 2 (03:18):
Drake has also gone hard and accused Kendrick of beating
up his fiance.
Speaker 3 (03:23):
I think we've got a bit of Drake now too.
Speaker 1 (03:27):
Fifth we play down, join in or Big three says,
I've gotcha weight down, Travis goadgam Way down, Savage goatgam
Way down like your label boy, you and a skull
right now and you got fail to add the medal?
What our right down? I'm at the stop but a
mount so you'd say, now just as stop as I
had a hat down big different.
Speaker 3 (03:47):
So that gives you a bit of a sense of it.
Speaker 2 (03:50):
But there are ten distracts that have been released in
the last sort of pneumatology seven in seven days, So
I think it's very a familiar, are.
Speaker 3 (04:00):
These guys the Beatles seven and seven?
Speaker 4 (04:02):
Amazing?
Speaker 3 (04:03):
Isn't that?
Speaker 2 (04:03):
But it really speaks to the kind of modern day
that we're in music. We've had lots of famous beefs
in hip hop, you know Tupac and Big Years, jay
Z and Nas. This is unlike any of them because
of the kind of digital age that we're in that
you can have someone say something bad about you, run
into the studio, get a beat, record something, release it,
and then bang bang bang bang bang back and.
Speaker 4 (04:24):
It's instead of texting each other, they put it out
as songs out there.
Speaker 2 (04:28):
Yeah, but there are some quite vicious allegations that have
been leveled.
Speaker 3 (04:32):
It is worth saying none of that's been proven. There's
no actual evidence, and.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
A lot of people sort of in hip hop industry
or commentators and experts are saying, like, you know, don't
pay too much heed to what's said in the lyrics
of these songs. Rap battles are much more about the
ego and the peacocking and kind of destroying the other
person lyrically.
Speaker 4 (04:52):
True, just call someone a pedophile in a song.
Speaker 3 (04:54):
I think that if someone were to look into.
Speaker 2 (04:58):
You could definitely much defamation proceedings, I think, but that
would be very uncool and unsportsmanly in the kind of
bigger picture of what they're purposing about. So, I think
the fact that this is all about ego and being
number one, if one of them were to kind of
launch legal action, which you know, they could.
Speaker 4 (05:17):
Make them seem unusually old fashioned.
Speaker 2 (05:19):
Yes, I think that they would get torn apart and
people would would not be very impressed.
Speaker 4 (05:24):
Come a long way a story, nose. Who're saying that
I'm suing, I'm pursuing you like to rub it in
the dirt and have it for Deserve what the people
are saying, thank you,
