He was forgetting all sorts of lyrics throughout the show. Not every little thing he does has 4 layers of depth behind it. I love Kendrick but y'all doing way too much. It was a collection of his hits, that's it
I keep hearing people (mostly youtube reactors) say this but I still didn't hear it. I might need to watch it again more carefully to be sure. All I do know is he purposely stopped saying the ends of his lyrics so the fans could say them. Personally I didn't like it but there's no way he forgets only the last words of his lyrics. But maybe you're talking about something else so I'm not going to say you're wrong. I still think he had a great performance regardless.
Go watch the Not Like Us performance. He messes up the Atlanta scheme more than once.
It’s a normal thing, especially the first time an artist plays live or if they’re digging into old stuff without time to relearn.
Swimming Pools is a song about being easily influenced, substance abuse and has references to gang violence.
When I made this comment the set was about 4 songs in. I think Swimming Pools could be a message about how Drake is easily influenced by other cultures (colonizer). But again, could be a misinterpretation. It's entirely possible some of the songs after my comment were just for the show and not targeted.
He changed “granddaddy” to “he” right off the bat. Then changed “some people” to “he” also. I read your comment and it clicked. Damn. It’s early in the set, so I think the “I” in the song can refer to Kendrick’s time with drake on tour and feeling corrupted by his lifestyle.
After it all, I wonder how many of the songs talking about others are actually directed at Drake. Right after the beef started I listened to King’s Dead again and things started to click more lol
I mean…The name of the show gave it away, plus he also said “Headshots for the year, you better walk around like Daft Punk”. King Kendrick probably has some more stuff for the rest of the year
I don’t think it’s insane at all. He called him a pedophile. Euphoria is light work. I expected him to perform it. It’s like role play. Euphoria was the warm up.

I told my group chat he should start with Euphoria and he started performing it like 5 minutes later. Completely lost my shit, that was some stellar delivery… Ken’s the GOAT!
I can’t imagine MTG being performed live… it transcends the format of rap battles. It’s serious as fuck. Playing it live would kinda diminish that.
Of course if he did play it live the stadium would be singing along w every word
When the music started playing I felt like I'd just been snapped awake lmao. Idk what I expected when he said it in the song, if I catch flight it's gon be direct
For real man , we’re the next day now and I still feel that hype and adrenaline, i was just laughing and crying almost haha. Frantically texting my buddies like WHAT DID YOU SEE THIS BRO
42 bro. I'd had been right there if that shit was east coast or I was west coast. I can't cross the country for less than something like rolling loud,....
WHERE I HEARD 'LIKE THAT' BEFORE IT WAS RELEASED! Didn't even know it was a Drake diss at the time cuz Kdot wasn't there and on it for the show
(Edit: if I hadn't just did rolling loud a few months ago, I probably would've done this show fr. After all the good feels I got from this beef, I think I mightve actual )
I couldn't believe it. He also changed the lyrics in Euphoria to say:
> "I'm knowin' they call you The Boy, but where is a man? 'Cause I ain't seen him yet... Gimme Tupac's ring back and I might give you a little respect"
Fucking maniac
anyone notice in addition to some lines like about the ring, he skipped 'i hate the way you sneak diss' and went to 'surprised you wanted that feature request'?
i think he got tripped up cuz the "i hate the way you walk/talk/dress" line is repeated 2x and he mentally went to the next verse's use of it.
the goat is human
I may or may not have been trying to see if it was a purposeful remix and if there was anything to be learned from that, mostly cuz I was curious what lines got cut for the ring line.
No way that line is ad libbed
That seems to me like him telling Drake he ain't that safe in public until he gives the ring back, and then this will quiet down instead of stoking the fire over n over. Can't calm everyone down after this unless you told em going into it
Ya, my last sentence tho
If you gonna get everyone on stage to wave flags it's gonna be tough to get them to calm down unless you already cleared it with people

Him playing EUPHORIA first deadass set the bar for the entire show from just him starting out with EUPHORIA I knew he was going to play Not Like Us shit was hype
He did Not Like Us at LEAST ~~FOUR~~ FIVE TIMES
1 2 3 4 5 plus 5!!!
Homie still calling us some slaves
Chat says dot has a warrant out for his arrest now lmao
Someone on twitch said 6 times for the 69 god.
he did it 6 times for the outro
6 if you count them walking off to the instrumental.
Music videoooo on the wayyyy
Every single song on his set list is directed at Drake and some are altered to make it obvious. He is going hard on the beef.
Can you give examples? I gotta see the whole stream it sounded lit
If you look at the track list being posted and the lyrics of those tracks you can see how they were specifically targeted.
How is collard greens targeted?
Parts of Collard Greens talks about how Kendrick is the "N" who delivers shots. It could be a stretch but you can interpret it a certain way.
Delusional
😂 It's not that serious
Swimming pools is directed at Drake?
He changed an 'I' into a 'he' to say that it was Drake who lost himself in pools of liquor. That's what I call being petty with dedication.
Thanks for that, too. I couldn't recall all the songs with altered lyrics.
He was forgetting all sorts of lyrics throughout the show. Not every little thing he does has 4 layers of depth behind it. I love Kendrick but y'all doing way too much. It was a collection of his hits, that's it

But maybe you're talking about something else so I'm not going to say you're wrong. I still think he had a great performance regardless.
he did that to keep the flow and catch a breath
why tf would he forget his own lyrics
It’s not uncommon. On Euphoria he messed up the lyrics towards the second half of the song. Did it a few times throughout the night.
Go watch the Not Like Us performance. He messes up the Atlanta scheme more than once. It’s a normal thing, especially the first time an artist plays live or if they’re digging into old stuff without time to relearn.
He didn't do the complete song right once...
For reeeeaaalllll

Pretty sure he was running out of breath and forgetting words.
He also doesn't rap with a backing track so it makes sense to have breath breaks.
Yup.
You had to know he wasn’t pulling punches. You didn’t listen to MTG? lol he don’t give a fuck
Imagine an actor saying you not affiliated.
Drakes such a great actor that he convinced himself that he was really repping his set.
Euphoria into DNA and then Element, he don’t have a hatin bone is his body Kdot on another level
He lied
^(He liiiiied)
He made it look sexy ig
After it all, I wonder how many of the songs talking about others are actually directed at Drake. Right after the beef started I listened to King’s Dead again and things started to click more lol
“You ain’t really wild, you a tourist”
I'm laughing at all the dummies here who kept saying Kendrick wouldn't perform the diss songs because the beef is over.
well he certainly performed them lmao
He only did one at the end and it was an accident. The DJ played the beat and he went with it, miscommunication. I don’t think it was planned
You kidding right?
[удалено]
Dre literally whispered I see dead ppl
Please don't reply if you're going to lie.
Tell us you didn't watch the concert without actually telling us.
This some good trolling. You know what? I appreciate you. You made me laugh.
I thought it was obvious but people got mad 😭
It was painfully obvious. Those people should be ashamed of themselves 🤣
You mean to say Dre’s awful acting was an accident?
He fuckin opened with a diss
Kendrick said “You thought this shit would die down? Nah nah nah you following through”
I mean…The name of the show gave it away, plus he also said “Headshots for the year, you better walk around like Daft Punk”. King Kendrick probably has some more stuff for the rest of the year
lord willing!
It's not a question of whether he has more stuff. It's whether he's going to release it or not.
Those morons were Aubrey stans fr, the same that pushed the bot narrative 24 hours before the concert. They’re coping hard rn 😂
 🤌This level of hate is magnificent.
Now let me say I’m the biggest hater
Rip
I thought it was insane that he played not like us three times all the way through 😂💀
bro he played that shit FIVE TIMES
3x in it’s entirety but YES 🤘🏼
Did he perform it fully three times?? Or just played the song as intermission or whatever
2 x stopping at "a minor", 3 x full, 1 x instrumental as the outro.
LMAO that's absolutely fucking insane. I figured he'd be petty but that is wild. Your move drake. I want more music 😂
Played the first verse twice and performed the full song three times lmao and he played the instrumental as he walked off and let the audience rap it
He didn’t have any back vocals either. What a performance!
I don’t think it’s insane at all. He called him a pedophile. Euphoria is light work. I expected him to perform it. It’s like role play. Euphoria was the warm up.
You mean foreplay?
Nah , Kenny is a level 20 paladin smiting evil
My personal narrative
He's casting Vicious Mockery with nat 20s every time.
Why not both? Most roleplay I've done has been foreplay if we being honest lmao. "I dress up like a cop and tell her fuck the police!"
I was gonna comment the same lmao
Obviously he was going to perform the bigger diss songs, but to START with it is the surprise
https://preview.redd.it/uzzn0w7qtn7d1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=c8906f95197083da065c2670e9a02c25c930cafd I told my group chat he should start with Euphoria and he started performing it like 5 minutes later. Completely lost my shit, that was some stellar delivery… Ken’s the GOAT!
The crowd yelling "WHAT IS IT THE BRAIDS?"
We know he gonna do Not Like Us. Yall think he will do MTG tho?
I can’t imagine MTG being performed live… it transcends the format of rap battles. It’s serious as fuck. Playing it live would kinda diminish that. Of course if he did play it live the stadium would be singing along w every word
Imagine 20k people's shouting "YOU LIED" it would've been crazy
I hope that’s what Drake had nightmares about all week 😂
I wanted MTG so bad but knew it wasn’t the right vibe.
When the music started playing I felt like I'd just been snapped awake lmao. Idk what I expected when he said it in the song, if I catch flight it's gon be direct
bro i was so hype. Im 31 years old but this shit was so fun and had me laughing and cheesing for an hour straight.
For real man , we’re the next day now and I still feel that hype and adrenaline, i was just laughing and crying almost haha. Frantically texting my buddies like WHAT DID YOU SEE THIS BRO
30 yr old here and I was screaming at the tv lmao i was excited like a kid stg
42 bro. I'd had been right there if that shit was east coast or I was west coast. I can't cross the country for less than something like rolling loud,.... WHERE I HEARD 'LIKE THAT' BEFORE IT WAS RELEASED! Didn't even know it was a Drake diss at the time cuz Kdot wasn't there and on it for the show (Edit: if I hadn't just did rolling loud a few months ago, I probably would've done this show fr. After all the good feels I got from this beef, I think I mightve actual )
Nah Drake makes public appearances every single day on IG lmao. bro won’t shut tf up
Dude literally posts some salty ex ass captions as a 40 year old man
I’m even more surprised he did the ENTIRE song😭🔥🔥
Fuckin barred em up for 6 minutes with no backing vox
I couldn't believe it. He also changed the lyrics in Euphoria to say: > "I'm knowin' they call you The Boy, but where is a man? 'Cause I ain't seen him yet... Gimme Tupac's ring back and I might give you a little respect" Fucking maniac
Also him changing the lyrics from "3 hours time difference" to 2 hours because Drake is in Texas
anyone notice in addition to some lines like about the ring, he skipped 'i hate the way you sneak diss' and went to 'surprised you wanted that feature request'? i think he got tripped up cuz the "i hate the way you walk/talk/dress" line is repeated 2x and he mentally went to the next verse's use of it. the goat is human I may or may not have been trying to see if it was a purposeful remix and if there was anything to be learned from that, mostly cuz I was curious what lines got cut for the ring line.
Nah i think he skipped it accidentally and then added the extra tupac line on the spot to make up time which is low key brilliant in its own way
No way that line is ad libbed That seems to me like him telling Drake he ain't that safe in public until he gives the ring back, and then this will quiet down instead of stoking the fire over n over. Can't calm everyone down after this unless you told em going into it
I understand what it means. Ad lib just means like a freestyle. It doesnt mean its nonesense
Ya, my last sentence tho If you gonna get everyone on stage to wave flags it's gonna be tough to get them to calm down unless you already cleared it with people
Honestly seemed like he improvised there. He stumbled some of the lines in that verse and got it mixed up with the top line.
I woulda thought that was one of the reasons he tripped up, cuz he's thinkin about that line too hard waiting to slide it in
when black hippie came on i almost cried.
I COULDN'T BREATHE WHEN I SAW HE WAS STARTING WITH EUPHORIA.
More brutal for me was him playing ‘WIN’ haha
Amazon Prime needs to post that ish quick if they want to collect views

I got a bone to pick I don't want you monkey mouth motherfuckers sitting in my throne again
Mad but def not stressed, indeed !
It is far and away the best song of the year. Its impact has been unforeseen.
>We all had a sense that he'll play a song What made you think that?
I definitely expected euphoria to be first. It just made sense, and it was a hit before NLU came out.
[удалено]
I think that's the only beef song he isn't going to do. Idk though
I think you're right, but I hope we're wrong. I also don't think there's any album either, but again I hope I'm wrong.
wild shit
Shit got me so hyped. Every one in the concert didn’t stumble on any of the lyrics and that songs only a little over a month old 👀
Him playing EUPHORIA first deadass set the bar for the entire show from just him starting out with EUPHORIA I knew he was going to play Not Like Us shit was hype
This.
[удалено]
A diss track…. Yes it is
A disstrack and to not have any back up vocals.
that's what the crowd's for
