What else should we react to? 🤔 Comment below! Also if you like the hat I'm wearing cop yours now before they're gone 🤟 www.knoxhillmusic.com/shop/chaos-kh-flex-fit-hat

You know Drake is listening to Knox right now to help him understand the diss better.

No matter if you're on team drake or kendrick im sure you can agree on one thing: Knox is the king of breaking down lyrics!

Kendrick is an artist, Drake is a corporate product. Enough said

The fact that this white man understood what Kendrick meant about the culture and some black commentators didnt is scary to me

Joe Jackson was reportedly pretty abusive, if Drake wants to be Mike then Dot is gonna be his father beating him. That's a dark ass bar.

I ate at a restaurant this evening. The waiter came and asked how i was doing and i replied “drake” the waiter kindly handed me my check and cleared my table. She knew i was finished

I was saying to a friend how I thought the "not real women" bar was about how Drake is too comfortable around underage girls, and I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed.

The crodie thing is about drake getting robbed in Toronto. It was at the restaurant Kendrick mentions. New ho king. Later on Kendrick says no one has ever taken his food. He’s saying no one would rob Kendrick in his city and drake is the type of person that would get robbed in his home town

Everybody hype the lyrics, but nobody notices the funeral bell tolling throughout the song. The ultimate subliminal message. 🔥

bro is literally genius, this man is the only one i’ve seen to just get all the bars without looking stuff up😭

Can't believe everyone's missing how Kendrick was making fun of Drake's Toronto accent when he was saying, "You know nothing about thaaat" 😂😂

That backwards clip in the very beginning is Richard Pryor saying 'Everything they say about me is true' when he was playing the Wizard of Oz in 'The Wiz'. You can take it further with him implying that Drake is a man hiding behind the curtain. The Wizard of Oz wanted everyone to think he was big and powerful but he wasn't. Nastyyyyyyyyy

Knox saying "I'm just a white boy, you have to go see what Shaq is saying" is exactly why i love him haha

When he went on that whole “raising a son…” bar, he literally the lists different things fathers do, so he was literally teaching him how to be a dad 😭

Dude you CALLED the fact he had another one in the pocket, READY

Kendrick really went from repping the West Coast to having the entire country side with him

Drake's ghostwriter after hearing this "I don't get paid enough."😂😂

Kendrick dropped on April 30th which is the Day of the Child. Then he titled the song “Euphoria” alluding to Drake being a producer on the TV show that heavily depicts teen sexualization. This is Kendrick saying Drake likes children (teenagers) and then he later calls Drake a child not knowing how to act like a man. There's layers and levels to this diss title so Kendrick is up.

Bro dont apologize for pausing! Thats literally why im here. if any of us wanted to listen to the straight up song, wed do exactly that. Keep breaking everything down brother!

The Hate bar is just so visceral on that beat, I can't get enough of it

You know what's great about making this Euphoria, is now whenever someone searches that with Drake, this diss will pop up.

It's not a lightskin thing. Drake wears blackness like he is an actor. He takes it off when he gets home.

For those who aren’t black , to give further context . There’s a large segment of black people that take issue with Drake wearing urban black American culture like a costume when it’s convenient essentially. That’s what Kendrick is speaking to

Drake is actually a producer in the tv show euphoria. it's another reference to his involvement with visual arts, and besides that, the show has received a lot of criticism about how it portrays minors...

What I really like is that he didn’t just call him white. He pointed out the REAL issue a lot of folks have with him, which is how his insecurities about his own identity has made him appear fake and cringey. Him being mixed isn’t the issue. Him not being comfortable in his identity is.

A shout out to DMX " I hate the way drake talks, walks, dresses 😂😂🤣🤣🤣 Kendrick really brought the sting

At 37, imagine losing a fight you picked. "you can drop another 100 records; I'm done and walking away". - Aubrey Drake Graham.

KDOT really did explain that YNW Melly line 8 bars later lmaooo

Drake fans saying “this is mid” as if Pushups was actually fire😂😂 The coping is insane

When Kendrick Said “I love them to death, in eight bars I’ll explain that phrase.” If you notice that EIGHT bars later he mentions YNW Melly. Melly killed 2 of his friends in the backseat of his car. When I realized it it was crazy!

Also the whipping feet bar is a reference to the black community, they usually whip light skin children on the feet so the bruises dont show on their body lmaoo. My mom heard this bar and started dying laughing, got me going down memory lane.

The big thing about the hate lines is that--while he may actually hate Drake--he's referring to the elements of Drake that are cosplaying what Drake perceives as blackness.

Him asking if he's black enough has nothing to do with his complexion. He's talking about the way he was raised, his culture.

three beat switches. KDOT LITERALLY CAME THROUGH WITH THREE SWITCHES. pure PRECISION. 🔪👑

"Chipped by a throwaway" is one of the best doubles I've ever heard.

Euphoria (the tv show) is also about hyper-sexualized teens, and connecting all of what Kendrick said later in MTG and NLU makes you question the reason behind Drake being a producer of that show.

Kendrick deliberately confuses Haley Joel Osment (star of The Sixth Sense and A.I.) with Joel Osteen. Osteen is a televangelist whose voice has been appropriated using AI, which adds to the lyricism since Kendrick jokes that he can't tell who he's battling. Freaking crazy bar. 🔥

"Some shit just cringe-worthy, it ain't even gotta be deep I guess" is so fuckin petty 🤣

Knox misses absolutely NO detail. This the only youtuber ive been looking for to react to this one🔥🔥🔥

I love how he’s sticking up for Pharrell

Nobody’s catching the “love em to death, and in 8 bars I’ll explain that phrase” and then on the 8th bar he says the melly line. Nobody can touch this man

Nas said "no idea is original there's nothing new under the sun it's not what you do,but how its done." Kendrick a genius.

Drake got his N-Word Card Revoked.😂😅🤣..Great Great Breakdowns and Great Reaction👍🏾💯💯👍🏾

Sorry for the late response, but I been busy with work. GREAT reaction. 1 thing that was missed, when kendrick says, "I hate the way you walk, talk and dress, its not only a dmx reference, its a mj reference from the song, “The Way You Make Me Feel” where mj sings, "I like the groove of your walk, your talk, your dress"

I teach literature at college and I will be assigning this video to my students to show them what analysis should do. Great work animated by love for this.

The backwards line at the beginning is Richard Pryor as the wizard of OZ from the film THE WIZ…it’s the part when they expose the wizard as a fake and he breaks down and screams “Everything they say about me is true, I’m a phony”

That second diss record call was insane knox. “let me get back to that for the record”

The Shoo-bie adllib is from Rocket Power, it means "tourist" He's literally calling Drake a tourist in Hip Hop.

New Ho King is a Chinese Resturant on Spadina Avenue in Toronto. New Ho King is ALSO where a Toronto rapper named Sizzlac filmed his last music video before being shot and killed. Sizzlac got shot and killed days after dropping a diss record titled “Realest in the 6”, and in the music video for the record he’s at New Ho King. Sizzlac is also rumored to be one of the people that robbed Drake at gunpoint in 2009 Drake recently has aligned himself with another Toronto rapper named Pressa, who is apart of the Driftwood CRIPS gang. The Driftwood Crips and Sizzlacs gang have had a long rivalry. So, when Kendrick says that he’s at New Ho King with a blammy and that he can do it on camera. He’s saying that unlike Sizzlac, he’s in Drakes city (Toronto) at New Ho King with a gun and that he’s ready to do it on camera.

Idk if it was intentional, but the daft punk line had a double meaning. Off stage, Daft Punk is silent. They ain't talk on anything, to stay out of drama. He was telling Drake to stop talking shit off stage.

You have an unreal level of knowledge and analysis. More thorough than anyone else.

I saw Knox Hill in a joint reaction of J02 and I immediately started looking for him all over KZfaq. You are the best at deciphering the letters. Kendrick is a genius and I needed to understand every word he was referring to. thank you keep doing this good work

Kendrick wasn't saying "Crodie" b/c he's a crip he was saying "Crodie" b/c that's what Toronto crips say instead of Brodie and he's making fun of them saying Drake is attaching his name to them (b/c he's homies with Pressa, a rapper and crip from Toronto), but that don't help his cred b/c they're fake and just imitating LA Gang culture so he's imitating them

Knox. Bro when I tell you NOBODY is catching these references the way you are. It is ridiculous!!! I just love how locked in you are with your reactions. And I love it for the culture. You’re turning young casual hip hop fans into bar aficionados. Keep doing what you doing man. We need this. Hip Hop needs this 🙏🏿

Damn, this was a thorough breakdown… thanks man. You caught nearly everything. A few more points: 1. He made three switches, a reference to when he said “I hope they came with 3 switches” on Like That 2. The backwards bit at the beginning says “everything they said about me is true,” which is a sound bite ripped from The Wiz when the find The Wiz (Richard Pryor). He’s calling Drake a fraud 3. The beat sampled in the intro was Teddy Pendergrass’ “you’re My Latest, My Greatest Inspiration.” 4. Kendrick singing at the end, We don’t wanna hear you say n***a no more,” is an interpolation of Kanye Wests lyric from Get ‘Em High, “We don’t wanna hear that weak sh*t no more.” 5. The Dementia/killer bit was likely aimed at J Prince though I don’t really know the depth of those claims. 6. The cadence Kendrick used when he rapped the bars, “I hate when a rapper talk about guns, then somebody die They turn into nuns, then hop online, like "Pray for my city" He fakin' for likes and digital hugs” emulates J Cole’s flow from First Person Shooter 7. When he says “everybody is an a be DeMun till they get chipped by a throwaway.” Obviously alluding to Drake’s song Demons… but also, Future’s middle name is DeMun and he has a track called Throwaway. Under the definition of Euphoria Kendrick provides, the usage example says, “The had almost a week to recover from the euphoria of Tuesday’s series winning victory.” Does this support the assertion that Kendrick has another track chambered? Man, what I really want is for Kendrick to bite the beat for Back to Back and record a diss track over the beat, then blast Drake when he tries to get it taken down.

"DJ Condom on the one, twos baby let's pay some child support." - Knox Hill I'm crying 😭🤣

Kendrick came with 3 Switches 🤣🤘💯💯he's mad

I've been refreshing your page waiting for the PhD of Lyricist to break this down.

2 weeks later and I'm still watching reactors react to Kendricks disses

The line, "we hate the bitches you fuck, cause they confuse themselves with real woman, " notice the first part of the song is Teddy Pendergrass "You're my Latest, My Greatest Inspiration." Now let's remember Teddy was in that infamous car crash with Tenika Watson, the trans woman.

“Oh you thought the money, the power, the fame would make you go away” is a hard line. Drake trying to hide his true self behind money, power and fame.

You're the only dude that actually understands the bars. I appreciate that. Most reactors are rookies TBH

I am legitimately impressed by your ability to instantly pick up double and triple entendres in songs. So many of us (and reactors) take a few days and sometimes weeks to realize missed points. You did in a fast reaction about 80% what What’s The Dirt? did in his video. And that took him nearly a month to do. No hate to him cause I respect the hell out of his dedication, but you did pull references that most reactors missed in their videos.

I love when yt boys actually know and understand real hip hop.... well done!!!

Kendrick just spit one of the best diss tracks I've ever heard. 6 minutes, 3 switch ups, layered, entendres, full of style and substance. This is truly one of a kind.

Knox should be the only one allowed to breakdown diss tracks

Holy fuck Kendrick was next level homicidal with these bars.. My brain dun exploded.. Legend

We love Eminem because he is not faking the funk! He also knows he benefits greatly from black culture, “ White America” was a good song. He actually can rap, be goofy and put out a killer diss track. He gave Kendrick the stamp of approval…that’s from one word smith to another.

Dude, I feel like im watching a manga unfold by the way this beef been going. Kendrick literally said “I hope you came with three switches” and literally switched the beat 3 times😭Peak music

Who all been checking this man page waiting for this video to drop!? me too..😅 KnoxHill the only person that can break it down!

Knox is definitely the best and most detailed when breaking every line down everyone else always misses either 25% or 50% of the bars dude you catch so many 🔥🔥😮‍💨

33:07 Knox you’re a fucking wizard. What a call.

“My first one like my last one, it’s a classic, you don’t have one, let your core audience stomach that then tell them where you get your abs from” 😂

FUBU stands for “For Us By Us”, it’s a blacked owned company

I might be the only one but the first beat switch with the bell and fanfare reminds me of a king being announced and welcomed by the same sort of fanfare

I've watched more than 10 reactions to Euphoria and this is the best one hands-down. Shaq is a close second. You're breaking things down and running them back properly. Thank you for that. Gained a follower and a fan.

The Sexyy Red line goes even deeper than that. "When I see you stand by Sexyy Red, I believe you see two bad bitches." is also referring to the "Rich Baby Daddy" music video where Drake stood by Sexyy Red as she was pregnant, implying that Drake thinks that both Sexyy Red and the baby are "bad bitches." 😭

Only Kendrick can deliver a killer disstrack, on a beat that starts like some soothing lo-fi ASMR session. Straight 🔥🎤🔥

The first beat is teddy pendergrass sample, song is “you’re my latest, my greatest inspiration” which is a rebuttal to Drake saying “I know my picture on the wall when y’all cook up” also teddy was paralyzed from the waist down like Drakes character Jimmy from degrassi

No lie.... im impressed. you may have the best first listen breakdown i have seen. You got a subscribe from me

Even in the definition of euphoria the sentence example is, “They had almost a week to recover from the euphoria of Tuesday's series-winning victory”. He dropped this on a Tuesday.

Knox is the only one that got it. Everyone else is like "thEse lYriCs aRe aLl ovEr tHe pLaCe"

This is actually the most helpful breakdown I’ve seen

“N” word pass is wild bro😂😂🤦🏾‍♂️that chicken killed😭…….🫡💯

"i hope they come with 3 switches" on Like That, then Kendrick switches the beat 3 times in the response. Even the beat is a bar 😂

He called Drake lame and then he said you thought money and fame would make YOU go away. Referring back to him being lame and saying that he hates himself.

Also the “I love em to death” line refers to J Cole’s Middle Child. He said “I roll with some fiends, I love 'em to death”. In the song he also said: “This watch came from Drizzy, he gave me a gift Back when the rap game was prayin' I'd diss They act like two legends cannot coexist But I'd never beef with a nigga for nothin' If I smoke a rapper, it's gon' be legit” 💀🔥

I love how you can feel the rage in “I’m the BIGGEST hater. I HATE the way that you walk. I HATE the way that you talk-“

That New Ho King bar flew over everyone’s head it’s so DEEP. If drake understands he’s SHOOK.

I read a comment under a post that explained how the title “Euphoria” is the quintuple that Drake asked for. 1) Euphoria definition 2) example of the word definition 3) The series sexualizing kids 4) Drake’s allegations 5) Him producing the show If any one is a reach.. here’s an extra. 6) Dropping it on a Tuesday

Rip to your grandma, may her gentle soul rest in peace

Lol... It's not even a light skin thing, it's the fact that he not connected to Black American culture in any way. He grew up in an upper middle class area with a jewish mother. He is truly acting. His entire persona is an act... I mean, he is an actor after all. 😂 Im so glad Kendrick exposed him. D-Rake has never truly paid homage to Black American culture and from old videos of him in Canada, he has never seen himself as a Black man. That goes into KDots bar on Meet The Grahams about how he uses his dad to portray who he is. Crazy breakdowns!

Chipped by a throw away is LA slang for being killed = chipped by a throw away = A dirty gun you use and dump

Knox and Shaq really just fucking run the reaction game now.

one more thing about the "ring" line at 15:05 - Drake has done some sketchy stuff with underaged girls, and (as claimed in the "Not Like Us") has (allegedly) predators/weirdoes around him, so "ring" could mean sex trafficking ring, so the "I'm ready to double the wage" could be seen as Kendrick offering to buy these (so far non-existent) sex slaves/trafficking victims from Drake for 2x.

Im having withdrawals yall 😭😭 and im catching up with reactions i havnt seen. And your breakdown and video is better if not best than most of the react videos ive seen 👏👏👏👏

The only channel that instantly caught the DMX reference 🔥🔥🔥

Kendrick so similar Eminem, the way they both deliver the diss track are so smart. They're the geniuses of this craft

Yu caught so much stuff other reactors missed. Yu definitely gained a new subscriber
