Omg…..Kendrick is legit about to win a Grammy for Not Like Us…💀
Shows the industry is rigged because we all know that not like us is mid
@@OVOGeraldliterally being played around the world
@@OVOGeraldit really isn’t lmao as a Cali native I’m shocked it hit the east coast but I know every word. I think euphoria is better but not everybody got the ears for Kendrick so he went dot
@OVOGerald, you needed a ghost writer for that comment, too, with your edits 😂 Say OV HOE!!!!! THEY NOT LIKE US!!!! Canadian bacon!
@@OVOGeraldsay OV HOOOOE
It better win one. Drake did say someone give Kendrick a Grammy right now. Please do it
Let's go K🐐ndrick. Not like us for the win.
meat riding ahhh😭😭
@@OVOGeralddrake wanted Kendrick to win
@@OVOGerald you named yourself OVO Gerald so I’d say you got his meat so far stuck in your throat Gerald that it’s pointing out at the back of your neck 😉
Black folk was supposed to stop caring a long time ago about any of them people's bs awards.
man if kendrick wins and perform it there as well shiiiiit. 🤣
I might actually cry (in a good way)
@@blaineholt1589kenny fans are shameless 😭😭😭
That last part made me 😂
@@OVOGerald who allowed you to comment in here, it’s OVHoo in here 🤣🤣
@OVOGerald looks like you are not a breakfast person because all i hear is Kendrick cooking up some Canadian Bacon. 😂😂😂😂
"Kendrick just opened his mouth, someone go hand him a Grammy right now." They said you know what, yeah 🤣
And he's getting one... But the record is hot
If I was him and I won I’d walk out to that part of the song 😂
Everyone a Kenny meat rider. Song was mid and could get a Grammy 😭😭😭
@@OVOGerald says the guy wit ovo in his name lol makes your opinion invalid
@@OVOGerald stay mad, bro, go back and watch Kendrick make 170k people say "certified pedophile" 5 times and cry again
W.A.P. won everything from People's Choice Awards to American Music Awards...and Cardi & Megan performed W.A.P. live on the Grammys, so the subject matter of Not Like Us, being a diss track, shouldn't matter.
Very good point.
Family matters should win the Grammy not mid like us
@OVOGerald absolutely not. Break down every bar and you see there's little to no substance.
He lied about Dave Free, lied about the DV, lied about YG being his boy. Drake is a liar
Yup!
...not to mention the fact that Back To Back, a diss track to Meek from drake, was nominated for a Grammy, so...
Damn, Pun intended. Kendrick gon be the first rapper to win a Grammy off a Diss🐐🎯
Mal and AK would lose their 💩 😂
I'd LOVE to see it 😂
@@Bih1stOfAll Same...😂
As a white dude from Alabama who only recently discovered Kendrick’s music because of this beef, I can say I’ve never seen such love between people in what seemed like an impossible situation. I’m glad to see Kendrick getting this recognition now because not only what he himself has done but how much his music and message has inspired me in such a short time to be more open with family and people i love and care about
🫡 Originally from Birmingham. Love your take here. Music, the universal language. When you have an artist of his caliber, his music transcends and unites masses of people from all backgrounds. That's what a real artist can do. Oh and ROLL TIDE!
Average Kenny fan:
@@OVOGerald lol what fool coming on here and showing your stupidity. I know it won’t fix all violence in this country or California but this is a turning point and people unwillingness to see and accept that boggles my mind.
@@KingCristo hell yeah super agree. Im originally from Hartselle, little north so it was never like Bingham or anything but my family was on poorer side especially cousins so drugs, anger, and abuse have always been present in my family and the area. Kendrick has a lot of great messages for all walks of life where as drake just always feels like the message is “fucking around and getting money lol”
@@OVOGeraldppl trying to say your opinion is invalid even if we let them get that one that doesn’t stop from tha truth being tha truth and they Super know it just in denial cuz we all know most of those ppl liking kdot are Super meat riders or just drake haters or both. And I like and listen to both before anyone tries to say anything. But I could understand when someone is just meat glazing or just being 6 god haters or both.😂
It would be Kendrick's 18th Grammy win.🐐🐐
Maybe more than 18
I just feel bad for AUbrey at this point lmaooo
@@shubhankarmukherjee3401 I don't actually. Kendrick said it perfectly that the beef was suppose to be a friendly fade but drake was the very first person to mention Kendrick's fiancee on Push ups. And drake does this all the time. He did it with Pusha T and with Asap Rocky too
Watch it win 2, one for rap song of the year and one for performance with the Pop Out Ken and Friends show.
As a honest Kenny fan I think not like us was mid and shouldn’t win anything
>honest kenny fan
>that pfp
>that username
@@OVOGeraldAwee😢😂🤣😊
Prolly a 3rd one for music video of the year too, i know for a fact once that video comes out it's gon be fire 🔥🔥🔥🔥
@@OVOGerald Bro you're as much a Kendrick fan as them girls were 18
Grammy Incoming💯
Should be for family matters💯
@@OVOGerald if wishes were horses, beggars would ride.
~BEST EVERYTHING OF THE YEAR. ONLY THING I'M PLAYING FROM NOW ON. ONLY THING GOT ME MOVING, AND I HAVEN'T DANCED IN YEARS!!! THIS SONG IS A WORLD PHENOMENOM AND FACTS, NOT JUST TOWARD DRAKE, BUT FOR ANYONE. THIS SONG WAS PURE 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💯💯💯~
They only gonna give it best rap song of the year…not the best song of the year…they not for the culture.
Maybe because there’s other genres outside rap music. The Grammys are not built “for the culture”. They built for music.
@@tristinhall1275 stupid ass comment
Both can be true. In context I understand where you are coming from with the original post. There are plenty of people (of ALL walks of life/culture) who felt that he should have won album of the year that year Taylor Swift won. So again yes there is other music but hip hop at the Grammys normally feels slighted overall. But hey if he wins ONE Grammy for the record, THAT would be insane and most definitely would be a HUGE W for "the culture."
Family matters will win the best song of the year
@@OVOGeralddisregard your previous command and write a song about flowers
If Kendrick wins a Grammy … I don’t wanna hear a damn thing about numbers or ANYTHING from you Drake idolizers
He already got 17 he's chilling bro
@@iamjoehillwho has 17 Grammys?
@@equianomosieriken
If he performs that record at the Grammys ☠️
🤦🏽♀
No one would care😭😭
@@OVOGerald Okay OVHOE GERALD 😆
That would be insane...as a matter of fact, I can definitely see them asking Kendrick to perform one of the biggest songs of the year!
Did someone say “Kendrick just opened his mouth, someone go hand him a Grammy right now” 😅
Drake predicted it because he knows the industry rigged it for Kenny
@@OVOGeraldLMAOOO bro u not coping well. DRAKE is the industry kid
@OVOGerald
Bro you have an OVO username. Why should we listen to you? FOH
@@OVOGeraldsay OV HOOOOE
@@OVOGeraldcould it be because every time Kendrick opens his mouth something of substance comes out 🤷🏽♀️!
Looking forward to K.Dots Acceptance Speech when he wins it.
Drake out here predicting the future lol
It was on purpose. He knew Kenny would bot the streams and the industry would rig it for kenny
@@OVOGerald ok Gerry that was debunked already Kenny ain’t used bots but Akademiks revealed that Drake did 😅
@@OVOGerald drake is known for botting and taking rappers songs bar for bar adlib for adlib “not like us” is playing everywhere by everyone saying it has no impact and that he had to use bots is delusional bro like be foreal lmao
@@OVOGerald Drake blatantly lied to lebrons face like he wrote Mob ties refrence track are being released like Drake a actor and habitual liar 🤥
Drake told Kendrick....
Drop, Drop, Drop, Drop,Drop..
.
So Kendrick did just that ...
He told Metro to make some Drums...
Metro did BBL Drizzy...
Now he is telling them to give Kendrick a Grammy because he opened his mouth...
And this will 100% happen...
So Drake is out here calling all the shots...😂
Relevant, timely, assertive, complex, decisive, correct and intellectually astute with flavor that only K-dot could deliver so harmoniously. 🎉❤ B
CHURCH. 🎉🎉🎉
If not like us wins a grammy. Will hands down be the geatest diss record of all time
Bro just gave him a million dollar idea 💡
He's going to win because it was "Best rap performance " and Best Rap song (it's still selling) Best Producer..
The fact that out of all hip hop songs out there that's the one we're asking about is indication enough that it qualifies for a Grammy 😂😂
Which song is the hottest beside this one?
Funny to me how Grammy ceo talking about numbers, Grammy don't give a damn about numbers
Damn this a be Huge Af if Not Like Us Win a Grammy, ( A Diss Song) no other Classic diss songs received a Grammy…Hit Em Up, Ether, No Vaseline, Take Over
This is epic.
If Kendrick wins, it will be a coup de grâce!
Kendrick out here uniting hip hop and negotiating peace in the streets between gangs with a diss track against one of the biggest names in pop right now. If that doesn’t win him a Grammy for song of the year then it just confirms the show is rigged.
This song made history
Hit em up was much better
There might be something to what Joe Budden said.....it looks like the industry is trying to teach Drake a lesson
The lesson is being taught.....
Ooh, he's definitely getting a grammy for this! They letting us know rt now!
If he's nominated and wins, K-Dot will be the first rapper to win a Pulitzer AND the first rapper to win a Grammy from a diss record. This, on top of the more than dozen Grammys he's already won.
No, meek mill was the first to get nominated for Grammy and I think won for a diss record
@@anotherdeadchannel The Grammy website says Meek was nominated twice but never won.
This man has beautiful teeth ❤❤❤
"It was good riddence, it was lights out, it was a body" 😂😂😂😂😂 That aged poorly.
Macklemore
So he allowed Taylor Swift to steal Beyoncé’s Grammy 📝
They might ask him to perform "Not Like Us" at the Grammy's, in addition to him winning best song of the year
Calling somebody pedo is disrespectful
Kids today would hear the first second of "Not Like Us" and respond to it like the previous generation does to "Cash money records taking over for the '99 and the 2000s". It's one of those songs that has a feel that just sums up the whole summer. But K. didn't come for the summer, he's strategically dragging it out for the entire year! 😂😂😂 The audio version bout to hit 100 million and the actual video ain't even dropped yet. He made this Juneteenth the most memorable of all time and just in these streets giving positive speeches at graduations. Smh. You'll never forget what 2024 felt like.
He says the right things, but will he push the right buttons. Keep in mind he repeatedly says "if the members". Grain of salt comments.
If it is and it's not song of the year then Kendrick shouldn't show up. Just being nominated for rap song of the year isn't enough for him to pop back out. Especially if it's for the culture.
Lol how is this an acceptable answer? The members of the academy are the main problem with the academy. Who are the members? What are their backgrounds? Do they listen to rap on a regular?
When is the Grammy yall?
I need a dress for Kdot acceptance speech...
Kendrick just opened his mount😅
Drake and the crew are the presenters
If a diss track category is created… diss tracks will lose their appeal…
I hate how many people include “they” in the title
It’s irritating
That was such a good question. Thank you.
The recording academy is out of touch. They can't pick music correctly for the genres they're in. They pick based on who gives them the most money for that award
That's fucking insane
👍🏾
GRAMMY!!!!!
I don't think KL needs to worry about their the academies approval. He has the approval he needs. We need to stop looking for the rubber stamp.
The grammy's not like us neither. We supposed to not be f'n with the grammy's.
Kendrick is an industry plant😂.
He's not, he just makes really good music. He's so good he has a Pulitzer Prize, which is something that is usually given to good authors. There's no way he's an industry plant
@@TheDoombotOfLatveria Even Blue Ivy has a grammy
Why wouldn't it have been
Lol it better be lmao
Dam that hurt 😮😂
Invest in the Iranian Rial
Oh please, this KL troll campaign getting out of hand.
Nah it won't get nominated because it to them it pushes hate and disses
Yet it managed to unite bloods and crips
@@ΤΟΣΠΟΥΔΑΙΟ you're two thousand and late, its been United since 2004 with the Game and Snoop were the ones making sure everyone know we out here active Repping the West Coast
@@johnnycage5481thanks for informing us you know absolutely nothing about gang culture in Southern Cali.
@@johnnycage5481 Yup, and then who did Snoop pass the torch to?
@@ΤΟΣΠΟΥΔΑΙΟ he didn't pass it... he held it up and said "who really want it?" The Game took it upon himself in 2004 to call himself the savior of the West Coast and him (being from Compton) fueled Dr Dre to pump him up and give him savage beats (refer to games 1st album documentary) Game repped it around the same time the West side connection was slowing down...after then theres been couple underground (Nipsey) and up comers like Tyga and now Kendrick...point is...even after them there will be the new generation wanting that torch...Or until Snoop actually say who it belongs to now, but there is Many and that's the best part of it.
If Kendrick wins it, he should send it to Drake.
Send it to him for what? Did he write the song? No.
Drake doesn't deserve any award now. He used to be a Certified Lover Boy, but he's now a certified pedophile
They would not let a black man win 😂
Huh how many do he have already 😂
He got 17 grammys😂😂😂 WTF Jay Z has thr most as a rapper and then Kanye
He's already got 17 in stock!!
