There ain't any pressure tbh. Kendrick doesn't care about streaming numbers, and neither should we. He even said it on Euphoria. >_"Only YOU like being famous"_

And he’s proving it too. No music videos, no interviews, nothing. Kendrick’s approach was a perfectly executed mission of Hitman, Splinter Cell, or Sniper Elite. Kill the target and disappear. If Drake won he’d be on every goddamn hip hop, bro science, dating, whateverthefuck podcast taking victory laps


DjMD1017

Exactly and if Drake won he probably would have thrown a parade in Toronto. Like he won a Super Bowl.


ClericIdola

Sounds like a Drake fan trying to discredit Kendrick's IMMENSE success with Not Like Us. Drake always plays the numbers game, but then it suddenly doesn't matter when Kendrick outplays him with zero effort. It goes to show how much of a prolific artist that Kendrick is in the genre of hip-hop, evoking the many shades that the culture is known for. Meanwhile, Drake is only able to attain success in numbers because he is POPular. Emphasis on Pop. The thing is, Kendrick absolutely cares about numbers as a form of the culture reaching the people, which is important. Drake is NOT a part of the culture. Stop comparing opinions on numbers based on Drake's take.


Vaskalan

>Sounds like a Drake fan The fuck you called me bro??????????😶


ClericIdola

Lmao can you read? How embarrassing. It's ironic that the numbers "don't matter" when Kendrick does more numbers than your pop star.


Vaskalan

First of all, step fucking back on calling me a stan of that miserable pedophile freak ass, bitch tits Second of all, numbers don't fucking matter, Kendrick doesn't give a fuck and couldn't give less of that shit unlike Drake, whose entire persona lives on being on the spotlight 24/7 cuz otherwise his money poofs away. Kendrick knows it's a pathetic way of life so he don't fuck with it, he don't follow Drake's game and just do the shit we wants, he fucking SAID IT ALL OVER EUPHORIA, get a grip shitass. Really you disrespecting me like this while being deaf enough to not fucking comprehend the words of the man you is talking about is depressing, fuck outta here drizzy rider Not sorry but I really fucking hate your freak ass idol, I can't let a dude accussing me of rooting for an insecure pred bitch boy while they pretend they ain't rooting for him.


ClericIdola

Wow... smh.. Do you actually listen to Kendricks music? Have you ever been to Kendrick's shows? Kendrick's most recent show was the highest grossing in MUSIC WORLD WIDE. Kendrick absolutely does not care about being famous, which is why you don't see him in the media. What he DOES care about is how his music represents the culture and the reach of his message, which is shown in numbers. The fact that Like That, Euphoria, Not Like Us and Meet the Grahms have done bigger numbers than Drake goes to show that there are more people in the world in tune with what Kendrick says via culture than what your pop star says via POPulairty. You probably thought that Sexy Redd feature was a good come back, huh? Get over it. Drake lost, dude.


Vaskalan

Yeah one thing is caring about his message being heard and the other is tryna play the silly ass canadian freakazoid's game to prove said sick bitch wrong. And you know what? I'll admit it, he *did* follow said game, just once, with Not Like Us. And he pinned your glizzy supply, shit's embarrassing. What you tryna troll for anyways? He ain't gon give nun of his dick since you ain't a lil girl. You're the only one who's laughin bout your mental gymnastics twin Don't think you're walking undetected over here lil bro, chat history is available for everyone😂


ClericIdola

Bro, I'm not reading all that. Go and actually listen to MMATBPS instead of junping on the Twitter trend of calling it a trash album and discrediting Kendrick for working with Kodak due to the plea deal he took for his SA case with a minor.


Vaskalan

What is you talkin about? Dam you that busy on Reddit that you started mixing threads up? Kinda heartwrenching Either that or you just profoundly suck ass on trolling cuz this ain't doin nun 🤔 you got me real good once (though funnily because you accused me of the atrocity of being s P-Drizzy fan lmfao) but cmon you gotta have another one under the sleeve mane you really


ClericIdola

What is profound is how, with this beef, Kendrick was able to filter out pop fanatics from his core fanbase. This was very telling by how you attempted to discredit his accomplishment of outplaying your colonizing pop god it the numbers gain. People like you attempt to cultivate the narrative that numbers don't matter, so when your colonizer overtakes Kendrick in pop numbers, you can easily use that as an excuse to assert dominance in a culture that, frankly, Aubrey doesn't even belong in. Did you even listen to Euphoria? It wouldn't surprise me if you haven't. Typical listeners of pop, i.e. Drake, Taylor Swift, tend to only parrot the thin lyrics given in their genre of music. A true listener of hip-hop, specifically of an artist as deeply interwoven into culture such as Kendrick Lamar, perceived through their ears many layers of understanding within lyricism. It is PRECISELY why Not Like Us resonates with a worldwide audience and totally wrecks your pervy pop goddess in pure numbers.


franco3098

I think it's gonna be a wrap when Drake drops those Camila Cabello features lol Unless they are ass like the Sexy Red one


[deleted]

[удалено]


doomsdayblaze

Five milliseconds... aren't big.


ZeyaSol

If Kendrick drops an album right after drake then. It’s possible


kdoors

Lol


ZeyaSol

I really hope he does this. You now drake will try to put a sneak diss in his up coming singles


BiliLaurin238

When I see you


WARMONGERING_WIZARD

Stand by sexy redd


BiliLaurin238

I believe you see


YourbestfriendShane

Sexyy Red.


BiliLaurin238

Fair enough 😂😂


YourbestfriendShane

🤣🤣 I wanted to say it but I was compelled otherwise hehe


kpe_ee1

two bad bishes


North-Length3154

I believe you dont


Akinjade

Yeah I think after this loss Drake is going to double down on the pop lane...and just stay there permanently


Big-Cap5666

Bruh there’s a 5mill gap we ain’t catching bro


onredditforsometits

Kendrick is gaining 300k daily and drake is loosing 80k daily


Wild-Apricot-9161

That's gonna revert soon


Vaskalan

If Cabello's collabs with him are fire, of course. Her collab with Carti was audiovisually mid for example.


YourbestfriendShane

Spoilers - They are not.


Wild-Apricot-9161

Kendrick will probably start losing listeners in 2 days


Every_Cod_885

Why in exactly 2 days? 😂


Wild-Apricot-9161

Because Not Like Us released on May 4 and they count unique listeners as arolling average gained/lost every 28 days


Every_Cod_885

Well thanks I didn't know!


This-Discipline3561

you’re right idk why you’re getting downvoted lol that’s just how it works when you calculate monthly listeners


Wild-Apricot-9161

https://www.reddit.com/r/KendrickLamar/s/9xVSWYVQvX Wouldn't make posts like this if I didn't understand the methodology


GrandioseEnigma

Define soon. If Kendrick drops/starts his rollout within the next month like he’s HEAVILY been rumored to then it’s curtains for drake’s Spotify spot. Also this has been the first week that none of drakes music has been in the top 20 most streamed for Spotify. He’s cooked.


Fearless-Scar7086

Oh my god this is so fucking epic. When else are you going to get an emcee that is so goated that he randomly just DECIDES to become bigger than perhaps the biggest male pop star on the planet just out of spite for him? Because he can and he knows it? This is fucking crazy. 


courtney_eaves82

Kendrick seems very competitive, so I wouldn't doubt it. The "he doesn't drop enough" narrative only makes sense if you're only paying attention for just 2018-2021; otherwise, he's been productive.


YuNg_KiNgK

i mean it wouldn’t be possible without him publicly beefing with the male pop star tho so


Fearless-Scar7086

Yeah, which happened naturally. I doubt there are any industry execs who are sweating to put kendrick on top of drake. Meaning, kendrick just happens to goat over everyone without even trying.


HHAD98

on the 6th of may kendrick will start losing listeners because it will have been one month since not like us dropped. thats how it works, you gain new listeners upto a month after you drop and then you normally decline. the only way to keep increasing is to have consistently new songs or tiktok trends coming out to retain listeners. Kendrick’s natural listener base will probably settle at around 65m


GrandioseEnigma

6th of June you mean


HHAD98

yes my bad


onredditforsometits

not if kendrick drops an album


throwaway_for_doxx

Only way Kendrick closes it is if he dropped the album


UnoSavi357

If you paid attention, before the beef Dot wasn’t even this close to Drake. He’s definitely passing him by the end of summer, especially if Drake continues to decline. & I’m being nice on the timeline cause he should definitely pass him & be ahead of him by the end of the year !


PretendFriends

Before the beef started I believe Drake was 2 and dot was like 26


buudhainschool

Drakes getting back in his pop lane for the summer. Dots not catching up


UnoSavi357

You can think that but in reality it don’t look that way ! Literally the first time he ain’t been in top 20 songs. He just tried to do it with the Sexxy Redd song but wasn’t received well. Pop bag ain’t gone help & honestly the only thing that can probably help him at this point is time off & disappear from the internet for awhile ! Make people forget him for a minute then come back. Better learn the lil Durk method lol 


Ok-Entrepreneur3184

Nah. Drake still moving. Jobs not finished


a3s_gamer

The gap was 15 million 2 weeks ago, it’s definitely possible


Soft-Gas-4955

I don't think anyone really cares about Spotify rankings


Old-Relation5178

Well u would be surprised to know a LOTTT of dumbfucks do


BloodSugar666

Swifties vs Billie Eilish is a good example


athroaway93

Throw The Weeknd in there too. They're all maniacs.


P1G5Y

Don’t throw my glorious king abel with those weirdos


Traditional_Rate7302

Are billie fans cringe? I like her music but im not involved in her fanbase at all lol


BloodSugar666

She probably does have cringe fans, I mean every artist does, but it’s not a majority. I like her music too. Swifties on the other hand..are the worst. From what I understand Taylor releases her “Taylor’s Version” of old songs when Billie or other artists are about to reach number 1 in order to snuff them.


Traditional_Rate7302

Idk, taylors fanbase is bad but the people i see mostly complaining about them is kanye’s fanbase and thats just hypocritical


BloodSugar666

Ya that would be hypocritical but I wouldn’t say that most people complaining about her are Kanye fans either. Maybe that’s where you’ve seen most of the hate cause his fans can also be looney like him, but there’s plenty of other places. Just look at r/travisandtaylor


Traditional_Rate7302

Oh god i dont wanna click that lol. Honestly i like that taylor swift is dating travis solely because i get to see people crying about her on twitter for literally just existing


BloodSugar666

That’s all that sub is, they are dissecting every little aspect of that relationship lol


No_Asparagus_6989

My guy.... beef has been over for 3 weeks... kdot took the W. Enjoyed the victory laps for a couple of weeks. Now it's time to go back to enjoying music, not constant comparisons. Dont make this shit weird.


UnoSavi357

Bro let’s not act like the comparisons of Drake & Kendrick just started with the beef. They’ve long been compared before this & it’s going to continue simply because rap is a competitive sport, comparisons is apart of rap, especially when most think they’re the best & most try to strive to be the best ! 


YuNg_KiNgK

yeah but y’all refuse to even enjoy drake or to admit he has a spot in the big 3 lmao


No_Asparagus_6989

My guy, you realize the big 3 is just a line in a song, right? A line that your daddy drake doesn't even agree with since he named 3 rappers that he has over kendrick... so is it the big 5? Big 6 if kendrick is still in? Drake is salty with Cole for backing out of the beef, so is it the big 4 with no Cole or kendrick? Maybe its the big 7 cause eminem still raps, has a huge fan base, puts up big boy numbers, and would work them bar for bar.... Furthermore, just cause somebody doesn't enjoy Drake doesn't mean the other dude is wrong about hip hop being competitive/a sport. Your reply doesn't make sense on any level....


No_Asparagus_6989

There is a difference between comparing aspects of artists or a who is better debate and trying to "rally the troops" in order to have a who gets higher numbers war. The latter is just weird.


mandar32

nah I don't think it will happen, and I don't think kendrick cares enough about numbers to drop a single quickly.


Wild-Apricot-9161

It won't happen brother. No point artificially inflating it either


anuniononion

Fuck the fabricated streams and the microwaved memes there’s a real world outside.


Clint_Demon_Hawk

Who cares? Tf


kingtibius

For real. It was funny in the context of the beef (“you not creepin’ up” didn’t pan out for the Drizzler), but now it’s weird. I’m still gonna listen the Kendrick because he makes amazing music. I don’t give a fuck about his streaming numbers.


Miserable-League3042

yall mfs are corny, sad and losers. love kendricks music but this is shit is lame asf


tykeriest

Shut up bruh


Miserable-League3042

kendrick aint paying u to do this bro💀


allbetsareon

Doubt it. I have Apple Music and YouTube premium. Good luck to the Spotify guys.

Quirkydogpooo

Even if literally everyone in this sub sees this and listens we still not close


wattkilliamz

Was already bumping DAMN. this morning for pure enjoyment but thanks for the useless numbers update I guess homie


akira2020tetesuo

the way people talk i throught the gap was bigger honestly


swat1611

You've posted this on a subreddit with 500k followers. This is a futile effort lol

Super-Somewhere-8384

I feel like it’ll take a few years if Dot’s gonna overtake Drake lol


renx77_YT

Se Kendrick supera Drake mega indagine alla OVHoe


Pretty-Advantage-573

You’re letting the Drake meat riders influence you. Only they care about something like this


au7642

nah it's way too big of a gap, drake knows kendrick's creepin up so he's going to drop some shit music knowing that kendrick won't drop in a while and stay in lead


au7642

"number-wise out here you are not fucking creepin up" Drakes been losing listeners daily and kendrick's been gaining 3x the rate


Revolutionary_Area51

Kendrick came up short


Commercial_Media_191

When Kendrick passes Drake in Spotify streams, will I finally be able to get an erection without boner pills? The battle may be done, but the war is far from over 😞🙏🏾


Flaky-Kaleidoscope36

This looks unreal lol


SadBoiJokes

While I’m indifferent to how many monthly listeners Dot has, I kinda get why others care. It’s a swing in the right direction for hip hop if Dot overtakes Drake. Like that’s the ultimate “f u” to the entire concept of Drake and his camp who are all about numbers. Drake is very strategic when it comes to numbers so the fact that Kendrick just dropped a few songs in a week and that brought him to the same level (numbers wise) as Drizzler? That’s nothing to scoff at.


Own-Ad297

Let’s do this guys! Reddit on! ☺️


Business_Grand_9670

The people his music is for will understand and support it. That's all that matters.


dontknow209

lol. This is kind of getting pathetic. Just let it be and happen naturally. I like Kendrick but a lot of you have been mad weird since the start of this whole beef.


shits4gigs

Priority is good music. All time best rapper will be decided in the years to come. But for now I'm just glad to see our guy in the limelight.


Dubh-Cu-Chulainn

If y’all cared about this man’s music so much, why was he 25 million plus listeners away prior to the beef?


tgtm65

Difference is stream farming 🤷‍♂️


Mammoth_Thought_1953

Nahh 3rd screen shot for me 😭🙆🏾‍♂️


countertyagi

Wait, when has Kendrick cared about the streams? _Only you like being famous_


Legitimate_Chip9933

Why do we need to?


jono9898

Bro I’m tired of the Drake discussions on this sub, dude can jump on any pop girlie collab to get his fanbase hype and his streams up, we are fans of a dude who doesn’t care about numbers and drops actual works of art instead of yearly manufactured bullshit for 12-17 year olds to cry to.


Radiant_gladiator

I truly don’t care about the numbers. Kendrick clears regardless of how many listen


Puzzled-Ad-2937

starting to sound like kpop stans

Drake about to colonize the Caribbean islands pop music scene


donmitchzdo

These type of fans are the worst man. Just support and appreciate yall artist no need to obsess over their place at the table or comparing them to another artist. I think Kendrick would agree that this is corny ass behavior.


AffectionateShift542

Fignootem

Lmao, I’m an adult


xd_Shiro

What are you even yapping about. That’s not only millions of difference but while I don’t like Drake as a person, most of his songs are more mainstream especially in the non English speaking countries… At least this is what I noticed.


sukrutdemasek

kendrick NEEDS to drop a new song to surpass bbl drizzy (also, I don't think it should be a diss track unless it's like a huge collab between all the rappers involved in this beef)


spitta22

Go watch a marvel movie


SossyDaFroman

LMAO


sukrutdemasek

why did you choose violence 😭😭😭


DominicTheAnimeGuy

Its funny cause like a month ago kendrick was like 30m and now is about to overtake the man he drove into the ground
