Once i saw Ab Soul dropping i knew 100 percent Kendrick not dropping anytime soon until after. Kendrick is not about to drop to outshine or step on any rollout for Ab Soul ever
The editor-in-chief and the creative director of Harper’s Bazaar are both Black women. The first time in history for any mainstream fashion magazine. That’s why Kendrick did the interview with them.
Soooooo basically they have 2 Black emomoyees..Yall hyped over everything. THOSE 2 women own and control nothing and are paid to do what they are told. 😂
Exactly and stopped him mid answer and asked him to explain who he was as a man was he supposed to say he sees his value as a man in hating Drake?😂 they thought he sat down with SZA for a women’s fashion magazine to talk about Aubrey???? Alexa play Meet the Grahams Dear Adonis…
1:10:43 Reading comprehension has become a huge problem these days. He was asked what "Not Like Us" means to him. He said It's the energy of who he is and the type of man he represents(Which he went on to elaborate). If you can identify with him you're part of "us". The explanation addressed the meaning of the phrase. The reason this question was so important is because certain groups of people had interpreted the words differently. Those who aimed to portray Kendrick as discriminatory, or sought to promote discrimination against others, had interpreted it in this way: 1. They (Biracial/white people) are not like us (black people). 2. They (canadians) are not like us (americans). 3. They (toronto people) are not like us (The west coast). This bothered me very much because I felt this was never Kendrick's intent. There are people in those categories who love and identify with his messages who would feel slighted if that were the case. I always believed that it was exactly like he explained it. The "Us vs. Them" theme was all about character, values, and behavior rather than superficial divisions. So, in the chorus, in relation to the whole song, if you support or embody the type of behavior he portrayed Drake and his crew as having, then you're not like "US" (Kendrick and whoever identifies with the type of man he represents). His words in Watch The Party Die also reinforced this idea: "And so it’s up, if you ain’t one of ours, it’s bad news" I liked the way Genius broke it down: "This lyric reads as a warning. Kendrick Lamar is drawing a line between those who are part of his circle or share his values and those who do not. “One of ours” implies a sense of allegiance, likely referring to those who align with his idea of integrity and vision for the future-as laid out in the second verse. Those who are not aligned will have to get in line or be left behind as Kendrick continues to reshape the culture.” He released this song the following month (September) after the Bazaar interview in August, by the way. He gave us his thoughts on the beef and the current state of hiphop. Atleast consider that. “Why reason with these niggas if they can't see the future first? Why argue with these clowns if the circus is well at work? Just walk that man down, that'll do everyone a solid It's love but tough love, sometimes gotta result in violence” “Influencers talk down 'cause I'm not with the basic shit But they don't hate me, they hate the man that I represent”
Elliott is so angry about Kendrick 'Not Like Us' response via his interview w/ SZA you'd think Kendrick canceled artists shows, gotten folks jumped, had his friends doing a media tour threatening artists. Where was all that energy then. 🥴
In my opinion, Kendrick wasn't answering what the entire song meant to him, he was answering what the phrase "not like us" means. He is defining who the "us" is in that phrase. I think maybe SZA was asking about the entire song but he chose to focus on what that specific phrase meant instead.
I picked up on that immediately. In fact I would have been disappointed if he brought up Drake at all. We know who he dissed, we know what it was about. Why beat a dead horse?
Elliott: Why won't he give the answer that I wanted him to give??? Also Elliott: Why do these rappers not wanna do interviews with HH journalists anymore?!? Also, SZA asked bro about the phrase "not like us", which echoes the conversation that was happening when the song dropped of who "us" was...this is legit just his answer to that convo...she did not ask him about the song, which is where I think people are getting confused
@@HumanityInCrisis not necessarily verbally defending him but saying I’m cool w Ak and Hed so im conflicted is dumb cuz Ak ain’t never did nothing to make someone want to stay by his side lol mf got a whole rape case goin on rn but that’s yo guy West coast Elliot
It is like this i like Kendrick he is one of the greatest m.c.s. of all times, one of the greatest lyricists of all times, he makes great music ,& he has a great catalog of music, however Elliot was right on pont all the way when he said that K. Dot did not give a all the way truthful answer when he told SZA the meaning behind the song They Not Like Us, as Elliot said the answer Kendrick gave was the Mr. Morale & Euphoria answer to the meaning behind the song. They Not Like Us was a song meaning is K. Dot was placing the red flag of victory over winning the rap battle between him and Drake and the people of his coast or city coming together in unity or uniting
@ Elliott did not have the space to tell Kendrick what his lyrics meant to him. Dot basically said it in a nutshell. This was for a women’s fashion magazine. This was not for The Source, XXL or Rolling Stone, where you would have that type of conversation. SZA was chosen for the interview bc she also is a prolific writer, as was the writer who wrote the intro. The mag issue was titled “The Writers” or something to that effect. So, the answer was more nuanced than what Hip Hop heads wanted to hear, which was more info about the beef.
Why would people expect Kendrick to break down the battle and actual diss records in HARPERS BAZAAR WOMEN'S MAGAZINE?? 😂😂😂😂😂 dude gave an explanation of what the statement Not Like Us means to him...maybe he'll go in depth about the actual songs if or when he speaks in or on a HIP HOP platform...a lot of these hip hop journalists are just salty that the stars don't want to talk to them but then you get on your platform and give the answer YOU wanted from him talking about you don't like his response...now why tf would he talk to any of ya'll? (except Hed who I feel should get the interview)
@rhondac.891 and when he does THEN he can be expected to address the battle but not in a women's fashion magazine 🙄 and idk who "y'all" are, let's not ASSume things
Right!!! I also think he didn’t do it because he didn’t want his first interview post-beef to be about Drake and the beef…why would he give that any of his energy bcuz we know that’s all hip hop outlets would ask him about??🤷🏽♀️ Hip hop media outlets and bloggers made a lot of money during the beef especially since he didn’t put any copyrights on any of those songs, so he doesn’t owe them anything, but I’m sure he’ll do something with one of them soon once he drops an album
Stop making excuses for him, the answer he gave was complete nonsense. He talks about morals, this is the same guy who made up a lie to get attention during the beef. We're still waiting for Drake's daughter. He is the same guy who confesses to being the biggest hater.
@@Rendyau8179 it's not excuses. He literally answered the question of what not like us the phrase means., it's on y'all for not having reading comprehension to understand that's simple fact. And if you wanna be critical about Kendrick line, what about Drake? He also lied as well, right?
After hearing that AK was joking about sexual assault against a minor I hope that Elliott will no longer promote him by retweeting or liking any of his social media content. Toxicity mustn't be rewarded.
@@DisclosureTV1 he is obsessed with Alister Crowley. Hes always referencing him in interviews and songs. Ab-Soul practices a Luciferian religion called "Thelema".
Elliot hasn’t figured out that Kendrick calling him a rat means the whole TDE x pgLang x BOF x MackWopTV might think he is one. Also, if KDot heard it, that means the narrative is floating around - West Coast. Him riding on his Drake interview don’t hold water anymore.
How are educated ppl who write and analyze all day dismiss Dots answer.. NOT LIKE US is literally claiming who is and isn't and he's telling u who identifies with being like him. has specific qualities.. . the divide he kept highlighting during the battle ...the whole battle was about character wtf is west coast Wilson chatting about...break it down from the bottom - the type of women drake likes, the type of friends he has, his actions, his awkwardness, his lack of identity, his lack of cultural awareness, and taking simple rap battling personal from the Big Sean record.. sensitive rapper in his pajama clothes... HOW CAN YA'LL MISS THE POINT I really can't understand
@@KingKCAyou’re right. It’s really not complicated. The implication he’s making is drake doesn’t have any virtues, principles, or morals. Idk how this managed to go over so many heads. He doesn’t have to say drakes name to subtly shoot at him. It’s literally the same point he’s been making the entire beef.
@@KingKCA How is this giving him way too much credit? He literally said this stuff throughout the whole battle and in the interview. If you think basic media literacy is "too deep" please read a book that doesn't have pictures in it for once in your life.
Thank you, that’s exactly what I think as well, people are just messy and wants to continue the beef so they can have content, his answer is the same points he’s made in the beef and the very reason for the beef. He did what he had to do now he’s trying to move on but people won’t let this shit go. And while I would love to hear him talk about the beef, I don’t feel that he owes anyone an explanation. If anyone wants one go listen to the songs.
Wait so are we not gonna talk about the fact that the Editor in CHEIF of Harpers Bizarre is the first Black woman of the magazine and she had discussed doing this interview with Kendrick Lamar for 2 years!
@@mil1042 oh well heres some hiphop journalism. I did not know! Very cool 😎 loved the shots but not the interview so much. I mean it was good but very vegan. Like there was no meat, yet!!
this is simply the best hip hop show out in 2024, no lie. its everything: vibes, humor, fantastic banter and of course yall bring the important updates. everything joyous about hip hop is happening here and i really hope yall grow this in 2025. we need more JOY in hip hop!
Been with TBP since the 1st episode. Elliott, we now 23 episodes in and you STILL pettily interrupt whenever someone else is trying to speak their piece. Please 🛑.
Kendrick's answer perfectly describes Not Like Us... He is saying that people who don't have morals, don't stand on business, and are instead pandering, are NOT LIKE US - "us" being people who have a strong moral compass and are not afraid to be fully themselves and aligned with their true values... Not sure what's so difficult to understand about that. I think it is so powerful. The whole battle for Kendrick was about rejecting inauthenticity and culturally corrupt behavior... and being brave enough to be who you are, as opposed to trying to be something you are not. AND it is great for him to be moving on from the battle. He did what he needed to do to defeat Drake and now he is continuing his journey as a human and I am so here for it!
one of my favorite parts of this show is how much y’all have changed my perspective on music and the industry. would LOVE if y’all did a The Bigger Picture & Friends spot every now and then where you brought in folks from the industry every now and then to chop it up with you, that could really contribute to the convo with informed POV
Hahahahaha Jeremy!! That was smooth AF bro, props to Gina for playing along and keeping it tight! But... I think Hed is going to make this, take this to whole other levels(I hope he does). But remember, you shall NOT back down. In your words, "You can't go back now!"
I’ve always said that Kendrick will perform Broccoli at the Super Bowl, I’ve said that since day, one of the announcement and some people in the comments, thought I was crazy
Elliot Wilson is such an hater...truth is this fool never believed in KDOT from the get go, he literally said GKMC was not a classic yet thinks every album drake has a album. FAKE
I think DJ Hed has finally admitted to being a journalist. He does research for the interviews he conducts which are conversational all the while building trust with the artists. This is the way. In a world full of Aks be a Justin Hunte. Looking forward to the discussion with Gina about Shenseea on Effective Immediately. No shade being thrown at Elliott though. He does some great interviews on The Elliott Wilson Experience, but do y'all think he can borrow a couple of the mics from this set for his show? Secret message music while Jeremy reads Hed's phone would be great for future episodes. Also if Hecht is missing for a few episodes everyone will know that it's probably because Hed got him back. This episode was very educational too. It could probably be chopped up and made into a bunch of PSAs. Until next time stay on stream (SOS) y'all.
Crazy how times have changed. Took Elliot over a year to call GKMC a classic but called “her loss” a classic after a few months. We all knew GKMC was special because of the substance, how personal it is, conceptually etc, whether you called it a classic or not, we all knew it was up there. I just don’t get how you can call her loss a classic when it has none of what GKMC has in its own right. My point is, the criteria for a classic nowadays has dropped significantly.
@@HumanityInCrisis agreed. Plus I think Elliott would put personal preferences to the side. He’s a professional. Also, it’s not just Elliott. Joe Budden was close with Drake and I think he would still do a professional interview. But I’m still not going to my OP’s former friends first. That’s just me.
The track isn’t called Broccoli, it’s called “Mr Get Off” and that’s the version of Kendrick we’ve gotten this year. We had Mr Morale now we have Mr Get Off and that’s what the album will be centered around
I missed Elliot telling hed to SMD....yeah I officially don't like Elliot. He's a clown and I'm glad most people disrespect him when they speak about him ....he doesn't strike me as a man worthy of respect.
@@bgmck349 I think it's ok to dislike ppl. But imagine the show without him? Would you like it more? Perhaps I don't know enough about him. But I love how transparent he is, how all of them are in different ways, while keeping it in line. And I can't deny his contribution to Hiphop, plus he's a producer of the show and this is the best Pod. So he is doing something right, with a lot of quality, I just cannot deny it.
This is disrespect and out of line. I am amazed how people sit behind a phone or computer and believe it’s okay to be disrespectful. If you don’t like the show or a person you have the choice to switch to something you enjoy. You don’t know these people. If there was a remark you disliked, point that out, let’s not take it personal.
It was ONE interview Elliot…I’m sure Kendrick will hit the hip hop outlets once his album drops, but he’s not going to talk about Drake with you…that’s really why everyone is mad bcuz they want to keep the battle going so they can get the engagement and the money🤷🏽♀️
Elliot is so LAME!!! Stop trying to control and figure Kendrick out. When I read the interview I thought it was in line with who Kendrick has always been. I’m so glad he moves at the beat of his own drum.
27:22 this is something to consider: there’s a considerable percentage of “fans” that are also artists. So to include conversation about bts is only a natural progression of access and the internet. Secondly, the art of the roll out is at such a deficit in music, that when somebody does it at a high level, it’s like they reinvented the wheel
Almost 2 hours in now and wanna add Elliot also has been making lots of really good points on the interview, the relationship between media and artists, and the power some of these guys have to effect things. His experience shows with how eloquent he can put these thoughts together on the spot imo.
Kendrick gave Elliott so many chances because he respects the culture and its legends. He fumbled that relationship because of the Canadian, why be salty now?
I don’t think Elliott realizes that Kendrick has been saying Not Like US for a long time. It wasn’t something he just made up. He said in the song he did with Jay Rock I think it was Wow Freestyle

The reason this question was so important is because certain groups of people had interpreted the words differently. Those who aimed to portray Kendrick as discriminatory, or sought to promote discrimination against others, had interpreted it in this way:
1. They (Biracial/white people) are not like us (black people).
2. They (canadians) are not like us (americans).
3. They (toronto people) are not like us (The west coast).
This bothered me very much because I felt this was never Kendrick's intent. There are people in those categories who love and identify with his messages who would feel slighted if that were the case.
I always believed that it was exactly like he explained it. The "Us vs. Them" theme was all about character, values, and behavior rather than superficial divisions.

"And so it’s up, if you ain’t one of ours, it’s bad news"

"This lyric reads as a warning. Kendrick Lamar is drawing a line between those who are part of his circle or share his values and those who do not. “One of ours” implies a sense of allegiance, likely referring to those who align with his idea of integrity and vision for the future-as laid out in the second verse. Those who are not aligned will have to get in line or be left behind as Kendrick continues to reshape the culture.”
He released this song the following month (September) after the Bazaar interview in August, by the way. He gave us his thoughts on the beef and the current state of hiphop. Atleast consider that.
“Why reason with these niggas if they can't see the future first?
Why argue with these clowns if the circus is well at work?
Just walk that man down, that'll do everyone a solid
It's love but tough love, sometimes gotta result in violence”
“Influencers talk down 'cause I'm not with the basic shit
But they don't hate me, they hate the man that I represent”

Cant express enought how much I have been enjoying this Pod. the dynamic of these three is perfect. Keep it going. Stay on Stream!!!
I might actually get that "stay on stream " T shirt
The Bigger Picture! - Elliott Wilson
My Saturday morning hip-hop show!
one of my favorite parts of this show is how much y’all have changed my perspective on music and the industry. would LOVE if y’all did a The Bigger Picture & Friends spot every now and then where you brought in folks from the industry every now and then to chop it up with you, that could really contribute to the convo with informed POV
But the song is specially tied to his character. The man he represents.
Elliott Wilson is built like he grew up in Chernobyl. Great show DJ Hed & Jeremy Hecht
☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️☠️
😭😭😭😭
"Tore into head" is crazy work Elliot 😭😭😂😂
Hahahahaha Jeremy!! That was smooth AF bro, props to Gina for playing along and keeping it tight!
But... I think Hed is going to make this, take this to whole other levels(I hope he does). But remember, you shall NOT back down. In your words, "You can't go back now!"
😂🫡🏆
Shoutout to the best Pod out.
facts
Thumbs up to Jeremy and Dj Hed!
Elliott Wilson na
That ab soul interview was really good
It seems like all three of you have integrity and not bottom feeders like a popular hip hop streamer. I appreciate that!
Stay on stream. Is the album name
Trust me I’m def staying on stream😎 you guys are legends !
Always looking forward to each new episode. Great dynamic and chemistry between Westcoast Wilson, Certified Cover Boy, and DJ Hed
I’ve always said that Kendrick will perform Broccoli at the Super Bowl, I’ve said that since day, one of the announcement and some people in the comments, thought I was crazy
Hed : “ Yo OCK, lemme get a chop cheese!!!” 😂😂😂
Aha!!!😂😂😂 that’s up there with “Washup Shun”
Elliot Wilson is such an hater...truth is this fool never believed in KDOT from the get go, he literally said GKMC was not a classic yet thinks every album drake has a album. FAKE
Stay on stream 😂😂😂
This is turing real good got be honest. Getting better and better every week
Kendrick looked at Ellicott, having a meltdown about his interview, and probably feels validated by his decision to do the interview how he did.
Yo why Elliot built like the grinch 😭
😅😅😅😅
He built like Kendrick
Random as hell but I was watchin TV the other day and realized that Jeremy reminds me of Ced the Entertainer's neighbor on The Neighborhood 😂
@@MAWDiddy_803 loll ima go take a look now and report back, hopefully
That "masters degree " should have its segment on the podcast....
We need that
I think DJ Hed has finally admitted to being a journalist. He does research for the interviews he conducts which are conversational all the while building trust with the artists. This is the way. In a world full of Aks be a Justin Hunte. Looking forward to the discussion with Gina about Shenseea on Effective Immediately. No shade being thrown at Elliott though. He does some great interviews on The Elliott Wilson Experience, but do y'all think he can borrow a couple of the mics from this set for his show? Secret message music while Jeremy reads Hed's phone would be great for future episodes. Also if Hecht is missing for a few episodes everyone will know that it's probably because Hed got him back. This episode was very educational too. It could probably be chopped up and made into a bunch of PSAs. Until next time stay on stream (SOS) y'all.
Crazy how times have changed. Took Elliot over a year to call GKMC a classic but called “her loss” a classic after a few months. We all knew GKMC was special because of the substance, how personal it is, conceptually etc, whether you called it a classic or not, we all knew it was up there. I just don’t get how you can call her loss a classic when it has none of what GKMC has in its own right. My point is, the criteria for a classic nowadays has dropped significantly.
1:05:52 Proof Elliot is a messy ass man. 😂
U it’s good when you enjoy every week( keep going)
It's time for The Bigger Picture, a Saturday morning staple.
"I ain't fuckin' wit' nun from Canada" -DJ Hed
If I was Kendrick, I wouldn’t sit with people who were buddy buddy with my Op. Elliott is great but he did show up to episode 1 in Scorpion merch.
@@Desiree_Jasmine Haha agreed, but I'm not sure thats what he's asking. Ofcourse he wants it, but he also means authentic interviews via journalists
@@HumanityInCrisis agreed. Plus I think Elliott would put personal preferences to the side. He’s a professional. Also, it’s not just Elliott. Joe Budden was close with Drake and I think he would still do a professional interview. But I’m still not going to my OP’s former friends first. That’s just me.
Jeremy is a dope communicator, Hed's experience shows in his choice of words, Elliot is a journalist to the bone
The track isn’t called Broccoli, it’s called “Mr Get Off” and that’s the version of Kendrick we’ve gotten this year. We had Mr Morale now we have Mr Get Off and that’s what the album will be centered around
I missed Elliot telling hed to SMD....yeah I officially don't like Elliot. He's a clown and I'm glad most people disrespect him when they speak about him ....he doesn't strike me as a man worthy of respect.
@@bgmck349 I think it's ok to dislike ppl. But imagine the show without him? Would you like it more? Perhaps I don't know enough about him. But I love how transparent he is, how all of them are in different ways, while keeping it in line. And I can't deny his contribution to Hiphop, plus he's a producer of the show and this is the best Pod. So he is doing something right, with a lot of quality, I just cannot deny it.
Come on😂 he's not that bad Lol!
Everything you hate about him you'll eventually love. Enjoy the show.
@@HumanityInCrisis I think the best part of the show is the interactions between Hed and Jeremy.... Elliot just seems like a fake egomaniac
This is disrespect and out of line. I am amazed how people sit behind a phone or computer and believe it’s okay to be disrespectful. If you don’t like the show or a person you have the choice to switch to something you enjoy. You don’t know these people. If there was a remark you disliked, point that out, let’s not take it personal.
It was ONE interview Elliot…I’m sure Kendrick will hit the hip hop outlets once his album drops, but he’s not going to talk about Drake with you…that’s really why everyone is mad bcuz they want to keep the battle going so they can get the engagement and the money🤷🏽♀️
Elliot is so LAME!!! Stop trying to control and figure Kendrick out.
When I read the interview I thought it was in line with who Kendrick has always been. I’m so glad he moves at the beat of his own drum.
27:22 this is something to consider: there’s a considerable percentage of “fans” that are also artists. So to include conversation about bts is only a natural progression of access and the internet.
Secondly, the art of the roll out is at such a deficit in music, that when somebody does it at a high level, it’s like they reinvented the wheel
kendrick lamar has always been true to himself. his answer is his own and if you don’t like it then you’re “not like us.” literally his whole point.
Elliot got me laughing so hard 5 minutes in already. Got him and Hed bullying Jeremy together now lol
😂😂😂😂
Almost 2 hours in now and wanna add Elliot also has been making lots of really good points on the interview, the relationship between media and artists, and the power some of these guys have to effect things. His experience shows with how eloquent he can put these thoughts together on the spot imo.
16:10 “I was feeling myself, jabbing at hed” is crazy 😂
MTG won the battle. NLU was a party at the funeral.
Jeremy dug his own grave with that prank on DJ Hed😭😂
@tracetroj240 Do the young lady even feel attracted back to D.J. Hed for him to feel that he has a chance with old girl?.
@naaimshareef I think he knows he might get rejected but he just wants to shoot his shot...... That's his celebrity crush
@@traceatroj240 I definitely respect that D.J. Hed thought is rather she says yes or no the brother is going for it no matter the answer.
1:53:19
As a guy whos turning 23 this year, and watching the 23rd Episode of The Bigger Picture. I can confirm GKMC is a classic👑
Jeremy we love you for inheriting the beef! AK = Trash.
DJ Hed rocking the cortez kennys. Love it
Kendrick gave Elliott so many chances because he respects the culture and its legends. He fumbled that relationship because of the Canadian, why be salty now?
"You made it a hot line I made it a hot song"🔥🔥🔥🔥 shout-out Jigga 😂😂
West coast
I REALLY DON'T LIKE Eliot Wilson. STOP PROJECTING.
TBP Gang or TBP Crew?
Let's choose our name. Because this is a great show! Respect from Memphis TN 901
Not a gang how about fam?
That's cool CCB! TBP Fam!
I don’t think Elliott realizes that Kendrick has been saying Not Like US for a long time. It wasn’t something he just made up. He said in the song he did with Jay Rock I think it was Wow Freestyle
So if he says 3 words years ago that means he’s been saying it all this time?
😂😂😂
*Elliot* - i wanna be included in these things
Also *Elliot* - change the genre
*Drake* - * *Khaled* voice * i *Like that*
33:17 even people who don’t listen to Tyler like that loves that new Tyler album
He a journalist but didn’t understand the context of the simply ass question cuz it’s not the answer he wanted
The Nike Cortez on DJ Hed is so West Coast.
Love this show
Elliot is thee biggest hater 😂
I came here for the culture!!!💯
DJ Hed is an elite GASLIGHTER LMAO 😂
Get Jeremy on a broccoli costume for Halloween Hed😂
