"T H E Y NOT LIKE US"

Do people realize how much more difficult it is for Kendrick to do numbers than drake. Kendricks type of music has rarely gone mainstream. The fact that he outsold a hip "pop" artist is phenomenal

I don't need to even watch the video to know Joe Budden is gonna be mad as fuck in this video.

Where are the damn pushups?

This Joe woulda went crazy if he heard the Drake disses from Kendrick from 2024

meek died on the rap cross for drake's ghostwriting ways

Niggas always bringing shit up. But at the end of the day Kobe VS LeBron Kendrick VS Drake Messi VS Ronaldo Federer VS Nadal At the end of their careers they'll look at one another and say "thank you for pushing me" Different styles same art.

Yeah, Poetic Justice was dope!

This Is Hip-Hops First Take Joe Budden= Stephen A Smith

Kendrick can't surpass Drake . . . . if he's been surpassing him since the beginning

"Meek did more damage to drake than people would like to give him credit for" -Real Nigga Joe

fast forward to today and drake can't even clean J cole on his own song.

Drake is the modern day Jay-Z/ K.Dot modern day Nasty Nas...jay always sold more records but people always held Nas as the lyrical beast

I completely agree, that was a passive aggressive way of congratulating KDot on passing his sales. Can't say I'm surprised though.

Let's be real.. After GKMC the top spot was going to Kendrick.. He's been the guy.. Kendrick himself delayed his status...He gave drake room to prolong his status.. If Kendrick's last album would have had a more mainstream sound he would already have had the top spot.. Look how the second Kendrick hops on accessible beats he just shoots up the charts and does numbers.. This is AFTER Tpab struggled to go platinum and Untitled Unmastered didn't really sell much.. So you can't say Kendrick has dick riding fans that eat up everything he does.. No.. This is proof..Kendrick has been THE GUY since GKMC.. it's just his last shit wasn't mainstream sonically.. People fw Kendrick.. don't let the OVO stans who run social media or salty Cole fans convince you other wise.. There is no way in hell Drake and Cole could pull off something so risky to their mainstream status like Kendrick did with TPAB.. and still hold so much relevancy without comprising his content

Joe still mad at drake

Complex finally gave akademiks a proper wardrobe lol

Joe knew from time...

If anything j Cole and Kendrick collab

Nadeska I liked how you called Akademiks Bro at 0:11, that's my baby 😘 Friendzoned that nigga real quick

Drake x Kendrick? Nah man we need some more Kendrick x Taylor Swift! THAT REAL HIP HOP SHIT!

Joe Budden speaking facts.

akademiks has to stop hiding the snacks in his wardrobe, rats chewed on his hoodie🤔

Real niggas know Buried Alive Interlude. That shit was pure 🔥 and I kinda have drake to thank for introducing me to Kendrick

I don't need no kendrick/drake collaboration tbh

and btw kdot had the best verse on fkin problems

Really Don't Give A Fuck I Like Both Artist If They Work Together Again Cool If Not Oh Well Still Gonna Bump Both Artist

Drake commenting cuz he feels threatened

Haven't listened to more life since DAMN dropped lmao

Completely agree with Joe when he says the next album after More Life is the most important. Since Take Care nobody has had more hype and dominance in hip-hop. Like Nadeska said Drake teased Views for MONTHS, making people to believe this will be his confirmation of being the best rapper in the game. Numbers wise it was his most successful but as an opportunity to solidify himself as the best, it was a flop. Which I believe gave Kendrick the window to come with his best and be put back into the conversation. More Life was a good rebound from Views but Damn was executed so perfectly and at the most perfect time for Kendrick, it still took the win. So now the question is....what is the next best move from Drake? And the answer is simple. Put out his best album, his most important piece of work, at the most important time.

Am I the only one who watches this for Budden. He actually makes this show 1000% better.

We dont appreciate Joe enough in hip Hop culture honestly

I love that we have a daily show that speaks on the culture, Thanks Complex Media.

Joe is right tho, at least I ain't looking for now k.dot/ drake collab....we want that COLE/ K.DOT COLLAB!!!

10:12 Scorpion, Budds got it!...

Complex you better keep this shit going. Take note to how raw this is and never change it up. Keep the same essence but bring more guest in. This is raw gold. Keep joe Burden saying whatever he wants. Keep this gold.

Why do you have to talk about Drake 24/7??????

Kendrick Made it clear on B.E.T Cypher by saying ' your career aint shit unless you got some Kendrick in it' BOOOOOOM

Pump pump pump it up

"I don't need to hear argue with a girl at cheesecake factory"best line 😂😂😂

Kendrick did a lot of harmonizing on DAMN. Don't say no one with that sound is at the top when Kendrick sings too whether you acknowledge or not.

2024 and Kung fu Kenny cleaned him up.

this show is fuckin lit. akademiks is that dude and joe budden keepin the real shit circulating

This is beautiful to see 🙏🏼🙏🏼

Shorty hella cute.

Kendrick Lamar is the best rapper Alive.

Akademiks face when Joe talks has me dead 😂😂😂

Drake to me has 3 classic albums that I can say classic. Kdot has Section 80, Good Kid Maad City, To Pimp A Butterfly, and Damn. Although on commercial sales Section 80 wasn't good commercially it still show great quality of a structure album to make a classic like Good Kid Maad City. Each album had top itself like it suppose to do.

That’s crazy Joe predicted Scorpions importance.

2019 Kendrik is better they never collabed Joe was right

I feel like akademiks always telling Joe to chill in his mind 😂😂😂😂😂

I'm checking for that collab

So now we can all agree that Meek destroyed this nigga's career. Whether meek was wrong or not, people were gonna find out anyway like they found out about Milli Vanilli.

Ya'll will never let go of that ghostwriting angle even though Drake actually spoke on it.. ya'll will ALWAYS use that angle to discredit him which is corny.

i love this show. we need this for hiphop. Akademiks And Budden Were The Best Picks For This Show. WE NEED THIS SHOW FOR HIPHOP

look how akademiks holding that cup lol

They really trying to make this whole Drake v. Kendrick thing sound like its close. Kendrick has widely been better since AT LEAST GKMC. Maybe even Section 80.

Drake needs to drop Albums with out features that are a little less pop and mixtapes w artists from the UK.

😂😂 JB is hilarious!!

This is the best series complex has ever come up with. By a long shot.

"Why why why why why why"

kendrick did not outsell views he just out sold more life which was just a little playlist. no disrespect i love kendrick too

11:17 He Made Me Look At Him A Lil Different 😂😂 Old Head Joe Lieing Thoo

"I don't never wanna hear you arguing with some chick at Cheesecake Factory" lmfaooooo

Y'all act like more life ain't been out longer than damn. Of course his sales would slow down

Kendrick is better way better I start listening to albums now because of Kdot. Fuck single and radio records. If you make a album have theme. Drakes album is nothing like Kendrick albums

4:50 - 5:00 lmfao at his facial expressions.

Dj akademik and Joe budden is great together they fresh and new and fresh of breath air I watch them everyday

is Buddens gettin trashed on set? every time he drinks from the cup he be sippin' from the OJ

Joe Budden is still mad

That last line from Budden was the understatement of the year

This show is the best idea complex has come up with

Meek mill did drake dirty like a slow but painful killer lol

Joe Budden is so envious of Drake its ridiculous

Those jeans Joe is wearing are dope lol.

I still listen to the buried alive interlude off take care

Kendrick has always been above Drake...

So basically this shit not about talent it's about sells 🤔

you guys should discuss hiphops best roll outs... i.e. album releases

Joe really predicted this stuff correctly. Scorpion just dropped and it really is Drake’s most important album

in drake defense he released more life on a Saturday and he released a playlist not a ALBUM

Joe loves this "Drake fell off" topic, as if Drake isn't going to keep thriving out here and Kendrick won't go back into ghost mode after he's done touring

7 years later... Joe was spot on with his Drake takes

Yo I really didn't care for Budden much before I started watching this series but after hearing his POV on things and his reasons behind saying what he says... I really respect the big homie.

Drake sold 658k for a first week, and he didn't even release hard copies of his work.... soooo I mean???????

he washed Kendrick in the two songs they have together .... oh and washed Kendrick after kdot was throwing the shots at drake couple years back. Drake gave him a couple bars in "shit remix" And cleaned Kendrick

DJ A: Hey Joe! JOE: TIME OUT!!!

Joe with them Victor Cruz trainers 🔥 I got the same pair

Drake don't write his shit, done. King Kendrick.

Kendrick stans gettin wild. Same cats been saying "sales don't matter" wanna talk sales now. They forget Drake had 2 less days of sales and didn't have a physical copy. Last time Drake did a roll out, he moved a milli. Sit down, lil bih, be humble

I agree with what joe said at the end in saying that "I hate to talk about drake only in comparison to Kendrick"

1:55-2:03 LMFAOOO

All the hype and bullshit aside for both artists, y'all can't act like Drake ever was a better rapper than Kendrick. That's asinine to think in my humble opinion

When did drake have the top spot?

greatest Collab

5:22 but you definitely did hahahahahaha

K Dot drops and NOBODY knows how to act LMAOOO Drake still #1 and gonna remain there for as long as he wants

More Life was a fucking playlist and KDot barely beat him cmon

Joe was right. Drakes next ablum after More Life was very important in Drakes career. We got the numbers back along with the reviews of it. Now we’re waiting to see how Kendricks next album is going to compare to his..

YES they should work together.It would be great for both of them. In fact, they should make an album together, it would be amazing.
