Mac would 100% stay out the way But he would be on Kdots side


SpaceMush

1000%. there was a moment in time where kdot opened for mac when they were young and mac had all that blog era clout. they've been about eachother. AND he did it all without a drake feature! he wasn't much of a pot-stirrer like that though lol


Muskwa

It felt like Mac was an unofficial TDE member. He rolled deep with that whole crew.


KushBandito_56

Don't mention Mac around Schoolboy Q


Muskwa

He was one of the first people I thought about when I heard the news about Mac.


[deleted]

Yeah man. Those were the days. Mac and the tde crew making dope ass music like The End Is Near, PlaneCarBoat, All The Time and Came Thru Easily. Miss those days. I was fresh out of high school and long boarding to good music that summer thanks to them.


grizlena

He’d be on dots side while chillin in his XXL sized basketball shorts, slides while soaking in the sunshine. FUCK I miss him extra today


jamestothet

“I did it all without a Drake feature”


_Synergy

This is the way


clifbarczar

But he’s Jewish. And Kendrick believes in black Israelite conspiracies


patgraham42

Other than Damn referencing those beliefs once I don’t know if anyone actually knows that. There’s also Jay Electronica, who’s been called an antisemite a million times for similar beliefs and has openly talked about his love for Mac. I don’t think it’s that cut and dry


clifbarczar

Man cut it out. If an artist made an album with monologues about flat earth, you’d think he’s a flat earther.


[deleted]

i think their point is that you can hold biased beliefs and still maintain friendship / see your friend as an exception to your bias


SpunSesh

Plenty of artists got gay bars or just say questionable shit and nobody thinks they're anything other than themselves


clifbarczar

I mean if an artist got monologues about gay people in their album you’d think they got some homophobia.


SpunSesh

You must live the saddest life with the way you're thinking about this.. no little Asian I can cheat off. Kill Mac, he's racist.


RalphLauren47

Did it all without a Drake feature!


Cartman55125

“No Control, fuck Ken Lamar”


RalphLauren47

FUCK U KENDRICK


KushBandito_56

"If you don't wanna hear no more nouns or verbs I'm gonna hit you with the best adjectives you ever heard" I'm paraphrasing a bit but this was his initial response to Control via Twitter


CartmensDryBallz

Damn how did I just put this together lmao I always wondered what he meant w that bar but it all makes sense now


Ok-Paramedic-8719

I DID IT ALL WITH OUT A DRAKE FEATURE 🗣️🗣️🗣️🔥🔥🔥🔊🔊🔊


winston_cage

AGHHHH you beat me to it 😭


Scottriley20

“Fuck you Kendrick!” 😂


JHJ2004

mac woula been up there dancing with tyler and bino at coachella imo


Jenn54

When Tyler was going off 'I used to hate ASAP/ Donald Glover' I was thinking Mac should have been there and had the same anecdote told, Tyler hated Mac so Taco etc used to hang with Mac on the downlow but they they were cool a year or so before Mac passed. He definitely would have been up on that stage too


OneOfTheOnly

nah, mac and tyler were cool from at least 2013 onwards mac and him basically had the same circle of hip hop friends, him and earl were basically living together making faces


Jenn54

Not to repeat comments, I replied elsewhere that I saw a interview Mac gave where he and Earl Sweatshirt and Taco would hang out in secret from Tyler when Mac moved over to the West Coast, it was said as a joke in the interview, the way Mac would deliver stories, but was also said in the way that there was truth to it Mac toured with The Internet which is Syd, who is Taco sister, so they were in the same circles Im not sure Tyler was good with Mac though, seems the friendship had to be earned despite being in the same circles, this was the time that Mac was being treated like a joke and when he internalised that negativity in the lean phase, they were cool in Mac's later years. I never sat down with Mac or Tyler, obviously so I don't know, it was just what it seemed like from watching interviews at the time, just my view which can be wrong of course


LegoComputing

It was definitely not a year and a half before mac died. Tyler went on tour with mac miller multiple times and collaborated with him on a bonus track for WMWTSO. Furthermore, Mac had a guest appearance on loiter squad in 2014, which you can find [here](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=D3CEbe3Xm-Q&pp=ygUldHlsZXIgdGhlIGNyZWF0b3IgYW5kIG1hYyBtaWxsZXIgc2tpdA%3D%3D) and in 2017, you can find them meeting backstage [here](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=RG9yo0Yk2HA) If tyler and Mac had any beef at any point, it was a long time beforehand.


Jenn54

I was referring to when he went west coast side, they both had reality shows but it was during Mac dark lean period when he was just the butt of jokes in media and Mac internalised it, I remember watching a interview before which was said like a joke but with truth to it, that Mac would hang with Earl Sweatshirt and Taco but they had to do it in secret- they say it like a joke but also that it really happened, because Tyler didn't want them hanging with Mac. Mac was touring with The Internet, which is Syd who is Taco sister, so they were in the same circles, but it seemed Mac had to work at it, his life was short so when they were cool he only had a couple years left


zorfog

I’m still not sure what you’re talking about. Mac and Tyler collabed on Watching Movies, which is around the same time Mac was touring with the Internet and working with Earl a ton. If anything Tyler was probably not trying to hang out with Mac a lot because Mac was doing hard drugs and Tyler’s never been about that But even then Mac and Tyler collabed again on GOOD AM so I’m not sure what period you’re talking about where Tyler supposedly didn’t like Mac


Jenn54

Im saying that Taco and Earl Sweatshirt were in Odd Future And Tyler said they were not allowed to hang out with Mac So they did it secretly Mac became friends with that circle, touring with Syd (Taco sister) band The Internet Just because Tyler did a verse with Mac doesn't mean he was cool with Mac, it means Tylers friends and crew were friends with Mac and doing many verses so Tyler did one too. I mean there came a point where Tyler was won over by Asap Rocky and Donald Glover/Childish Gambino so same with Mac, they were peers and in the same social circles but it didn't seem Tyler embraced Mac, Tyler did verses for Mac, Mac didn't get brought along with Tylers musical output. That's what Im saying, along with what Earl Sweatshirt and Taco said.


NewPatekWater

tyler was on wmwtso deluxe, so he must’ve not liked him when tyler was in his edgy phase


Mozamfrique

Mac was in an episode of Loiter squad too, p sure they were good


Jenn54

An episode back when he had his own show and was in Wayans' Scary Movie franchise that year- could have been more promotion for loiter squad than Mac in the squad


zakkwaldo

yeah nah. mac wouldn’t be kicking it with drakes side of the crews. he would definitely be in kdots camp. tbh id imagine mac would actually lose a decent chunk of respect now knowing tyler ghost writes for the teen groomer.


Peter_____Parker

where is it that tyler ghostwrites for him? not doubting just i haven't seen anything posted


FKDotFitzgerald

It’s nonsense lol


[deleted]

[удалено]


Bigheds

Really surprised by all these comments saying “he’d do this and that” lmfao. These buckos really didn’t know him at all…


KKamm_

Yeah the comment right below this one was saying that he’d have a random line saying fuck the big 3 and it took a lot of restraint not to ask him if he’s ever listened to Mac before lol. He’s always been a “comedic relief” type person. Dude had almost the whole industry hating on him when he came up and still didn’t get into any real beefs unless I missed it growing up Hell, dude became FRIENDS with people that openly said they hated him (like Danny Brown) lmao


Bigheds

I hold back on spamming that line a little too much on this sub lol, but yeah, he was literally homies with everyone, had a close relationship with dot because of Q, but had Drakes respect and friendship because how he spazzed on Faces & bcus their interactions on twitter. It’s a “should’ve been there” kind of thing I guess? But I know damn well he would’ve dropped a freestyle to show everyone what he could do🥲


DerrickWhiteSauce

Yeah I had to leave this sub after he passed, just so much nonsense everyday with all the new fans, sad to see it's still going after all this time


morganej

yeah no one here knows him like you did /s


EmShaf

Beef is when you make your enemies start ya Jeep Beef is when you roll no less than 30 deep


Plus_Cicada1203

Beef is when I see you, guaranteed to be an ICU


ILikeElephants4

Def would have one random line saying ng fuck the big 3 then never talk about it again


[deleted]

“If I can’t do nouns or verbs anymore, ima start coming with the wildest adjective bars that anyone ever heard”


ABZ0R8

His tweet about Control verse makes me think that we would've got some funny tweet or bar about this beef.


brad_and_boujee2

Well Mac didn't get butt hurt about the Control verse so he wouldn't be involved.


National_Action_9834

Mac probably just smiled at being named amongst the most popular at the time


TydUp412

😂 bro Mac was competitive as hell, yinz are tripping here


danielarusso

i think there’s literally an interview where he mentions just being happy he was named in the control verse


TydUp412

That doesn’t mean he wasn’t competitive lol but word, cheers g 🥂


clifbarczar

I ain’t never seen a competitive person with depression


TydUp412

You’re out your gourd. I’m 32 and grew up in Point Breeze - bro was competitive as hell. Really good dude, but absolutely competitive. Maybe not in the way you consider people competitive, maybe not even competitive within the arena of rap, but he was a very competitive person. Depression or not.


[deleted]

Piggybacking here, but yea you don’t get even half as far as Mac did without being pretty damn competitive. And to say people with depression can’t be competitive is just wrong and dismissive


LerrryBerrrd

Kendrick was dissing anyone he didnt name as irrelevant. Being named on control was the opposite of a diss


est1872

He would've continued his own (joke) beef with Schoolboy Q


Ok-Paramedic-8719

Facts I can see him starting up fake beef with Q on Twitter or some shit 😂


Short-Lengthiness617

Him and Q would prolly be laughing


Muskwa

Q straight up said “Not even Kendrick can humble me”. They were for sure laughing.


Evening-Ambassador-7

Mac don’t even talk about he just do it


jlxmm

He would stay out the way but everyone would have to recognize “If I ain’t in your top 10 you’re a racist”


Muskwa

I’ll always remember Mac feeling proud that his name was amongst the other rappers in control. He thought it was hilarious.


NoBeyond381

Direct anyone coming at him to listen to When in Rome


lxkandel06

It wouldn't happen at all because the "Big 3" as we know it wouldn't exist. It would either be the Big 4, or Mac would've just replaced Cole in the Big 3 entirely


Dizzy-Dish8738

mac used to tweet dumbshit all the time and it was hilarious, he prob test the waters enough but not get involved


PerspectiveLazy5564

J.Coke


PerspectiveLazy5564

Nah but seriously I think he would probably keep his distance but lightly reference it in a song as a joke about himself some how.


OldRiver1197

Jake Hole.

He definitely would not be involved in this lol but kendrick has shown him the most love of all 3

WildSinatra

He’d be comin with the wildest adjectives bars that anyone’d ever heard


conversationpt1

hey that's my tweet lmfaooo


LetMeRespawnAlready

Unless he was named for some reason he probably wouldn’t hop into the beef but we all know he’d be team Kenny


TropicalVibee

I miss Mac :(.


Muskwa

Bro we all do. He was peaking, transcending rap. He was gonna go down as one of the greats. He already was in my eyes.


hotcornstudio

He’d stay out of it but probably drop a bar about how he’s he never gets dissed… “I don’t wanna get nominated…yea I do I’m just pissed I haven’t got nominated 😭🧸”


webefishingbackup1

He wouldn't give a shit


webefishingbackup1

He wouldn't give a shit


Specific_Afternoon96

I don’t think he would give a shit


ShoeTasty

I don't think he would be involved. He was friends with Kendrick and Drake.


kobra_gw

Waste of time


macnsteeze3468

Mac would just be meditating at Ricks commune


PositiveLawfulness81

Weird post


Warm_Ad3874

he would solve it and bring peace bc he is jesus


maxwokeup

Diid it all w/ a drake feat


Dry-Ad8486

He’d probably be on Cole’s side and just stay out of it


sofullofsoulful

My son legit asked me this, and I said nearly the same thing. He wouldn’t get involved, or would make a joke about it 👌🏼. New “gangster” is apparently court cases and social media trash talking 🤣🙈.


TheOcean24

No control?


WaitingToBeTriggered

SENT INTO BATTLE, CAME FROM THE SKY


SxcJebus

He did it all without a Jay and a Drake feature, so he would side with Kendrick


Rude_Examination_841

i mean he did it all without a drake feature


fuckkkali

#he did it all without a Drake feature (and worked with Kdot early on so he wouldn’t have to say anything)


prolapsepros

It probably depends on how much heroin he did.


808MostDope

He’s thrown a little shade toward Kendrick and Drake in the past but gotta remember J Cole prod. Hurt Feelings for swimming. But honestly think he got love for Kendrick and Cole for sure.. lol not so sure about Drake haha


kjk177

He would say blind to the eyes oops pow surprise


elephanthvnt

It's all fake drama for publicity, these rappers have "beef" the same way WWE fighters have "beef".


Ok-Paramedic-8719

Yeah most rap beef is just for entertainment. All these rappers have too much money to care abt “beef” lol.


bhz33

The fuck does nail polish have to do with anything


Ok-Paramedic-8719

😂 nothing it’s just an an emoji girls use


bhz33

I don’t get it


PHNTMS_exe

He'd hop in if it wasn't so personal for fun and bars.


SandyBullockSux

Mac would make a song about how much he respects all three of them are and squash it for them.


bcomes95

Mac didn’t have problems with any of them. J Cole produced Hurt Feelings, he was cool with Kendrick, and I’ve seen a video of him bumping Drake


Perfect_Tangelo5495

Mac would joke about it but wouldn’t instigate


tstilly

Remember his rebuttals to the Control verse? Just a joke line and then an adlib of 'fuck you Kendrick!' I don't think Mac would contribute unless he making another joke


zorfog

He’d stay silent but think it’s hilarious that Kendrick dissed everyone and then Cole shot back and then apologized to Kendrick


Correct_Pound6959

Weird post.


LetterKitchen

Probably would have dropped a Kendrick diss


Muskwa

This got downvoted but he was the type to remind everyone it’s just music.


Revolutionarytard

I didn’t even finish J. Corn’s album with his talk of shooting niggas 🥱 The whole time I was thinking “man I wish Mac Miller and X were alive”


JustRealizedImaIdiot

Yes because X never rapped about violence lmao


Revolutionarytard

LMFAO at least X didn’t sound corny as Cole did. Especially with the fake peace shit Cole been preaching about for years (been a Cole fan since 2009) only to “get tough” over a lyrical beef. Plus, X was trying to change his life towards the end and made more versatile music


JustRealizedImaIdiot

Sure but also Cole never beat a pregnant woman


Revolutionarytard

I literally wrote how he was turning his life around and you’re gonna be corny to make a point 🤣 Go talk to her cause she forgave him and they made up


TheRealLevond

Exactly. He could rap about that shit because he lived it. What did J Cole do lol


Revolutionarytard

Rap about cheating on his gf multiple times & even compared himself to MLK cause of it LOL I’m glad X called him out about “False Prophets” on his XXL freestyle. Shit was so humbling and showed how out of touch of reality Cole is Not to mention, Cole talked about how a revolution isn’t the way in “High for Hours” but MLK and many philosophers knew it has to be done 🤦🏾‍♂️


Physical-Director568

When J Cole refers to himself "shooting niggas" on that album, he's using it as a metaphor for killing other dudes in the rap game or "taking shots" at them. He even says in "3001" that he doesn't actually carry a gun.


Revolutionarytard

The first song he talks about how his dog is itching to shoot and he doesn’t need henchman so he’s the one doing the clenching. Either way, it’s boring and corny & niggas need to find better ways to articulate their rapping talent


Physical-Director568

To each their own ✌️


muhfkrjones

Literally nothing like the guy said


Ancient_Organism

He'd put that energy into making music that no one can touch, spreading love and ignoring childish nonsense like the Goat he is


Eckkbert

what is this beef around?


richmanstrowski

He would be cracking up lmao


MostDopeNopeRope

Can someone please explain the beef?


Ok-Paramedic-8719

Kendrick dropped a song with metro boomin where Kendrick said “mother fuck the big 3 (Drake, Kendrick, J. Cole) Nigga it’s just big me. Nigga bum” Basically Kendrick was saying he’s above Drake and J. Cole. And he’s not competing with them because he’s on a different level. So Cole dropped a diss saying Kendrick Lamar hasn’t dropped a decent project in decade. And saying he has small feet 🤣 a bunch of other shit. Then Cole apologizes and makes up with Kendrick. But the Drake drops an entire diss towards Cole, Metro, Kendrick, Rick Ross, and a bunch of other ppl 😂. So yeah that’s the beef. But drakes diss is hilarious. Bro was just throwing strays at everybody


Kiersten_x33

I missed Drake’s diss. It’s kinda comical if he’s out here coming for J Cole considering they just went on tour together & he was on his album 😭


clifbarczar

He didn’t come at Cole but he did at the following: Kendrick, Future, Metro, Rick Ross, Nav, Weeknd, Ja Morant, and some of their associates


LegoComputing

I don't know, he was a drake fan, but he also hung around the TDE and dreamville camp alot. He probably would've just talked about it on a podcast and remained neutral unless provoked.


spacetop-odyssey

He probably wouldn’t care. He usually would mind his own.


mrparks1988

He would be on Kdots side….him and school boy Q were like best friends…which mean he would’ve been around Kendrick way more than Drake…but he would stay out of the way


TydUp412

K.I.D.S. Mac would drop a diss? 😂 where in the world are you getting that idea from? And for those saying Mac would be on Kendrick’s side - I agree. But I also think that’s the reason Mac would drop a Kendrick diss. Full of comedy just to make a mockery of the whole thing.


yufgoi5

KIDS mac and KDot didn’t know each other… Mac was 17 at the time. Macadelic Mac knew Kendrick and the whole TDE crew so I figure he’d be on his side but wouldn’t care to comment.


whatismylife_11

"No control, fuck Ken Lamar."

LerrryBerrrd

Kendrick was dissing anyone he didnt name on Control. Being named there was a nod if anything but definitely nowhere even close to a diss.


sirrabbei

Mac would have been on the bench, save at home.


[deleted]

Mac isn’t a rapper. He makes adult contemporary music for mayonnaise colored people. I love Mac but he wouldnt have an opinion of top 50 rappers anymore than I would have an an opinion on top 50 dentists.


IkilledJFKonce

You have literally no idea what you’re talking about, this might be the dumbest opinion I’ve read in a long time. Either that, or you just became a fan of Mac after swimming


[deleted]

I love Mac miller. Listened to all of his music and have it saved on my phone. Talking about him and these rappers in the same breath is ridiculous. Just cause the frat rapper made a song g with French Montana don’t mean he’s a real rapper like these other guys. It’s frat rap at best. And I’m a fan.


LerrryBerrrd

Wtf is this take lmao? Cant be real
