Andromède
Andromède est une princesse de la mythologie grecque. Elle est la fille de Céphée, roi d'Éthiopie, et de son épouse, Cassiopée. Le mythe le plus célèbre associé à Andromède est l'histoire de son sauvetage par le héros grec Persée, qui lui évita d'être sacrifiée à un monstre marin. Elle épousa Persée et ils eurent plusieurs enfants ensemble.

09.03.24. Lorsque le Soleil Brillait.
NDA pour moi-même : Texte sur le passé de Persée.
──────────────────────
Lorsque le soleil brillait encore, il m’était inconcevable d’imaginer la folie. Ce temps qui nous sépare est le même qui me pousse à y croire. Je me sens sale des impuretés que tu as laissé ; une injustice que je ne peux pas rembourser. J’ai été idiot de croire, que pendant les jours de ton ascension, tu n’avais pas peur du noir. Seulement, l’hiver est là, sans que tes yeux ne puissent le voir, et peut-être qu’au fond c’est moi le peureux de l’histoire. Mes doutes ont un goût de remords, un goût de vérité, et j’ai du mal à l’admettre mais le soleil ne s’est plus jamais levé. J’aimerais tout réparer, je ne suis pas un grand bricoleur, un artiste à la rigueur, cependant c’est ton cœur que tu voulais me confier. Dis, t’avais prévu de mourir, n’est-ce pas ?
Aux informations, ils parlaient de l’hiver qui allait nous engloutir. “De la neige comme on n’en a jamais vu”, avaient-ils affirmé. Tu riais en pensant à ton dernier noël, à ton dernier amour, au dernier du dernier des mondes que t’avais créé. Je voulais te sauver : j’aurais pu. J’avais lu ton message trop tard, un soir, sans douter qu’il faisait si noir au fin fond de ta mémoire. Sans carte, sans boussole, qui était ta lumière pendant tes jours sombres ?
L’unique rédemption que j’ose espérer ne m’est pas légitime en réalité. Néanmoins, ça me rapproche de ton pardon. Ils sourient, sincèrement, grâce aux causes que je défends. Ils reviennent parfois, pour construire une amitié - un amour. Ta joie n’était pas toujours vraie : je me demande quand elle l’était vraiment. Mes blagues étaient drôles ou tu faisais semblant ? Qu’est-ce qui te plaisait, réellement, entre ces faux-rires et ces faux-sourires ?
“Vous devriez rentrer, jeune homme, la neige va bientôt tomber.”
Il ne s’arrête pas un instant, il lance sa phrase comme s’il n’avait plus le temps ; et moi, je quitte ce banc. La mauvaise saison nous oppresse autant. Cette austérité me rappelle la chaleur qui me paraît lointaine, comme si ce souvenir était un droit présomptueux. Personne n’a échappé à cet incident et les rues ne sont plus aussi sûres qu’avant. Le froid alimente les chimères, tu sais ? J’avance en y pensant. J’imagine que t’as eu la chance de ne pas les connaître, ces bêtes hideuses, mais qu’elles sont venues te hanter bien avant qu’on comprenne qu’elles étaient déjà devant nos portes. Nous sommes peut-être déjà tous morts, finalement.

Coucou ! Alors pour les questions sur la nature, je voudrais demander 🍂 pour Alix, 🌴 pour Ivy et 🍁pour Ludovic, si ça t'inspire :) Et si jamais tu préfères y répondre avec un autre perso n'hésite pas :D
Coucou ! Merci beaucoup pour les questions ! :D Tout le monde est bien là avec la bonne question et en plus, j'ai mis une réponse plus courte pour les deux autres histoire de faire un peu le tour pour tout le monde ^^
Donc, pour Alix : 🍂 [AUTUMN LEAVES] Does your OC view piles of dead leaves as a mess or as fun? / 🍂 [FEUILLES D'AUTOMNE] Votre CO considère-t-il les tas de feuilles mortes comme un désordre ou comme un plaisir ?
Alix aime bien les tas de feuilles mortes ! ça lui rappelle des bons moments avec Rodrigue quand ils étaient petits où ils s'amusaient à sauter dans les feuilles de la forêt et à faire des couronnes de feuilles qu'ils offraient à leurs parents. En plus, comme il y a moins de fleurs en automne, il utilisait souvent des feuilles mortes pour les mettre dans la tresse de son père avec son frère. Par contre, il a vite appris à ne pas sauter dans les tas de feuilles dans les rues ou le jardin de la forteresse d'Egua car, c'était le travail d'un jardinier qui a mis du temps à les mettre en tas. Alors, c'est surtout un jeu dans la forêt quand il est petit, puis un souvenir nostalgique quand il est adulte, même s'il continue à sauter dedans avec ces neveux quand c'est l'automne pour s'amuser pendant une balade en forêt !
Et réponse plus rapide pour Ivy et Ludovic :
Ivy : elle n'aime pas du tout les tas de feuilles mortes, ça la gêne pour décharger rapidement sa cargaison vu qu'on peut glisser dessus. Elle trouve les couleurs de l'automne très jolies, surtout que les côtes avec des arbres défilent vite quand elle fait du cabotage et elle aime voir les feuilles changer de couleur brusquement entre deux de ses passages au même endroit. ça fait toujours un effet différent, comme si ce n'était plus le même endroit qu'avant, même si son dernier passage remonte à quelques semaines.
Ludovic : il n'a pas trop d'avis dessus à part que c'est joli mais, quand il tombe malade et qu'Héléna s'affaiblit de fatigue, ça lui rappelle son propre état de santé déclinant donc, c'est assez doux amer.
Ivy : 🌴 [PALM TREE] What are the stops on your OC's dream cruise? What boat are they on? / 🌴 [PALM TREE] Quelles sont les étapes de la croisière de rêve de votre OC ? Sur quel bateau sont-ils ?
Pour Ivy, ce serait de pouvoir naviguer comme elle veut sans trop de carte ou se soucier de trouver de l'argent pour tout financer ou de remplir ses gardes-mangers (bref, faut qu'elle est une armoire magique avec des ressources infinies dedans). En tout cas, son passage obligé à l'allée comme au retour, c'est à Lebur puis à Fort Egua pour voir Félicia et sa famille pour discuter avec eux ! Elle irait surement vers des contrées inexplorés par les fodlans de Morfis, d'Almyra et de Dagda afin de découvrir de nouveaux horizons et plus c'est rocambolesque, mieux c'est ! Elle a l'âme aventureuse alors, si le voyage peut ne pas être un long fleuve tranquille, elle est partante ! Sinon, elle va à Almyra pour revoir de vieilles connaissances (et récupérer des antiquités au passage), puis traverse tout le pays par les fleuves pour se retrouver du côté de Morfis (où elle récupère des étoffes précieuses), puis à Brighid car elle aime l'eau limpide du coin (et récupère aussi des objets traditionnels là-bas), ainsi que sillonner toutes les mers de Dagda (ce qui lui prend pas mal de temps mais, elle récupère également pleine de truc au passage), puis Albinéa (où elle trouve encore plein de chose intéressante, dont un gros chat qui est l'équivalent des sibériens vu qu'il caille à Albinéa !). Elle finit son voyage en retournant à Fraldarius où elle offre une partie de ce qu'elle a ramené, dont le chat qui est tout de suite adopté, et le reste est revendu et elle fait un super bénéficie, vu qu'elle n'est jamais loin des affaires ! Pour le bateau, ce serait sans doute le sien étant donné que c'est sa maison plus que n'importe quel autre endroit, surtout qu'il est adapté pour les voyages très long, en haute mer et en eau trouble. Sinon, ce serait surement une caravelle.
Réponse plus courte pour Alix et Ludovic :
Alix : tant qu'il y a sa famille avec lui, il est content alors, il irait sans doute avec eux à Lebur vu qu'ils y vont rarement, visiteraient tout le long du nord de l'Alliance et au sud de Sreng, et passerait surement plusieurs jours en touriste en Almyra où ils iraient tous voir une des mers intérieures du pays, dont l'équivalent de la mer morte où ils s'amuseraient tous à flotter sans effort (même Glenn alors qu'il nage comme une enclume)
Ludovic : lui, il aimerait surement faire le tour d'Albinéa en ami et visiter aussi Sreng afin de mieux les comprendre. Il aimerait sans doute visiter Morfis aussi, surtout la cité mouvante des agarthans car d'après le peu de texte qui reste de lui, Pan y serait allé après la mort de Loog. Sur la fin, il irait plutôt dans certaines régions d'Almyra où l'air est réputé très sain, afin de pouvoir respirer sans avoir mal.
Ludovic : 🍁 [MAPLE LEAF] What is your OC's favourite season? Why and what do they do during it? / 🍁 [MAPLE LEAF] Quelle est la saison préférée de votre OC ? Pourquoi et que font-ils pendant cette saison ?
Il aime beaucoup le printemps et l'hiver. Pour le printemps, c'est parce que ces deux fils sont né pendant cette saison (lune du grand arbre / avril pour Rufus, Lune solitaire / mars pour Lambert) alors, il est nostalgique et se souvent de son bonheur de les avoir rencontrer, même s'il avait peur d'être un mauvais père pour eux, et sa détermination à ne surtout pas devenir comme Clovis. Quand il a la tuberculose, c'est également la saison où il se sent le mieux vu que l'air n'est ni trop lourd, ni trop froid, ni trop chaud et ne lui fait pas mal quand il respire. Pour l'hiver, c'est par gout personnel. C'est un Blaiddyd et pas le descendant de Simplex pour rien, il adore le froid ! Vu que c'est aussi la morte saison pour la guerre, c'était un des rares temps calmes du règne de Clovis et il pensait un peu moins à sa survie alors, il pouvait être un vrai enfant et jouer dans la neige avec tout le monde quand il était à Fraldarius. Pas forcément à des batailles de boules de neige à cause de sa force mais, à tous les coups, il faisait de très gros bonhomme de neige et des anges dans la neige, puis allait patiner sur le lac Egua quand la glace était assez épaisse pour ensuite rentrer boire une grande tasse de thé ou un bon bol de soupe fumant. Il aime aussi boire une boisson chaude en regardant la neige tombée et en lisant un bon livre ou en discutant avec Héléna, il trouve cela apaisant. Dans un univers parallèle où il vit assez longtemps pour rencontrer son petit-fils, il aime d'autant plus l'hiver que c'est la saison où Dimitri est né, surtout que c'était pendant une grosse tempête de neige, ce qui est un signe de la protection du Brave pour la famille royale.
Réponse plus courte pour Alix et Ivy :
Alix aime autant le printemps que l'automne, vu que c'est des saisons ni trop chaude, ni trop froide et où il peut faire ce qu'il veut. Il a peut-être une petite préférence pour l'automne car il pleut plus mais, il aime beaucoup le printemps car, on peut ressortir sans dix couches de vêtements et il va toujours se promener à cheval quand cela arrive, histoire de se dégourdir aussi après l'hiver.
Ivy préfère l'été de trèèèèèès loin ! C'est la saison où toutes les routes ou presque sont navigables et elle a moins de problèmes d'iceberg ou de mer gelée dans les ports quand elle va commercer avec Sreng ou Albinéa alors, c'est tout bénèf pour elle (et sans surprise, elle déteste l'hiver). Même si elle cuit aussi au soleil sur le pont, c'est la saison où elle est la plus active et tant qu'elle peut voyager, elle est satisfaite !
Voilà ! J'espère que cela répond bien à tes questions !

My reasons to hate Drake
First things first, I'm the reales- wait, wrong theme. First of all, I would like to say this is NOT an unbiased recap, this is literally just me listing things I've hated about Drake for years. You might as well join in on the hate train. Go watch some YouTube video essays on this if you wanna know more!!! You'll find plentyyyy
Certified Pedophile ("allegedly"): Texting teen girls until they're of age and then go and date them. ew.
Cosplay Gangsta: disrespecting the culture as a whole, but especially what hiphop is about. Flexing money, cars, girls, drugs, clothes bc he never understood hiphop was never about flexing, but about being heard bc you're oppressed, about revolution. Now we got his die-hard fans running around acting like this is true rap. no. "You don't know nun bout dat!"
Culture Vulture: jumping from trend to trend in order to make it "his own", faking accents that he has no business playing with and dropping them as soon as he's done with this specific type of genre bc it's not trendy anymore. Adapting whole "personas" around this, instead of just merely collabing with other artists. Jamaican and African accents are just 2 examples here.
Blackness: Drake never really got out of his acting career. Back on DeGrassi he was acting as a high school jock. Now he's acting like a tough black guy who's from the streets and knows what it's like to be down bad, when this was never his life. Lil Wayne warned him to never change and act tough just bc he would sign to Weezy's label where the rappers were predominantly "gangsta type dudes". And what did Drizzy do? He's acting all tough and "outta dem streets". He's clearly overcompensating for not feeling black enough (I've already reblogged 2 posts about this, pls see these for further context). Drake's mad for not being referred to as a rapper who speaks on being black, when in reality the black experience was never of topic in any of his songs. He also doesn't give back to the community.
Lil Wayne: Drake had relations with fellow rapper Lil Wayne's gf (she actually was of age, ayoooo!) while Wayne was away in prison. Wayne got word of the fact his gf was cheating on him with the young guy he signed under his label and was pissed. Drake, in an effort to smooth out the situation, got Wayne's face tattooed on his arm. Say what you will about portrait tattoos, but this story is just so fucking typical Drake. How the fuck do you think this is gonna help anyone?
Validation: Drake donates money in the music video for God's Plan, only to earn more money with that video/song than he donated in the first place. He felt good about donating and then never did that shit again.
Numbers: As a great man once said: "Crack fiends bought 10 million rocks, that don't mean it's good. It don't mean nothing." (As you can imagine, that man was 2Pac). And with that I say that proving your worth in the industry by numbers don't mean a lot. It means you and your team figured out the market and started producing stupid, vapid, but terribly long albums to maximize streaming numbers, automatically bumping up your place in the industry. This is about quantity, not quality - good rap/ hiphop was never about that. Drake actively validates his music and status with his fame, money and streams and neither him nor his fans seem to get that says nothing about the artistic value of his music. "Numbers lie too, fuck your pride, too!" (I mean really, Baby Shark has 14 Billion views on YouTube - you think that's REAL artistry, Mister Aubrey?)
Cocky Ass Bitch: I would be okay with a lot of his music if Drake just knew his fucking place. He went pop ages ago, but still people (including himself) refer to him as a rapper - no even, as THE rapper, placing him in the Top 3. Sometimes I feel like y'all do this, just to piss me off personally. Apart from everything else wrong with Drake, there's nothing wrong with liking music like his persé. Not everyone likes conscious/ deep stuff and sometimes, when you with the homies, you just wanna chill and listen to something "mindless" - MIND you, I'm not looking down on "non-conscious" rap, I'm just saying not every artist has to be woke/ deep all the time and some "empty" party anthem about girls, fashion, cars and alcoholism is fun at times. These party anthems deserve their place. And a child actor turned rapper turned POP STAR is valid in my books - just not if it's Drake. Apropos cockiness: The dude compares himself multiple times to Michael Jackson and while that got a few good lines out of him, I believe it's close to fucking blasphemy. Drake and MJ on the same pedastal. I mean sure, questionable stuff happening with kids, both of them wildly successful in their industry (mind you, streaming like today wasn't around back then and many of the numbers cannot be compared), but one of them a real talent and the other one some guy who more or less made it as an industry plant. "I can dance like Michael Jackson? / I'd argue your skills really lack, son!" (okay sorry, I know, that was corny as fuck xD) Dude is flexing with numbers instead of poetic abilities -
About the art itself:
Ghostwriters: "What poetic abilities?", I hear you ask - Yeah, don't think I forgot! Best believe I been cooking this one. There's evidence for Drake having ghostwriters - which on its own is fine, don't believe every star writes every single bar on their own. My problem with this is, that Drake keeps his cocky attitude, even though many of his hits aren't really Aubrey-written and also many ghostwriters never get their credit (this is why they're called "ghostwriters", I know that this is not something specific to Drake, but slapping one more name on the credits ain't that hard, when you're worth a billion bucks already). This is the rap equivalent of flexing your homework when you know DAMN WELL copied it off of your best friend and did nothing for that success. I guess his song Right Hand wasn't about a romantic interested after all, but the dudes who been writing it!
STOLEN SHIT: Why in hell is no one mentioning this on here? Drake is KNOWN for stealing other artists' verse metres (referred to as "flows", y'all tumblr, idk how much you guys do know, okay?), melodies, whole beats, samples or verses in general. In no other studio would you see mentions of a "reference track" concerning songwriting. They take a song as reference and build around it as they construct a beat. There's PLENTY of evidence for this happening, one story really had me baffled, where a young indie-rapper met Drake in the early 2010s, gave him his CD to listen to and a whopping 5 years later the indie-rapper realizes Drake just fucking stole his entire song (a really personal one at that) on his latest album back then. Being indie, of course the guy had little to no means of fighting back with lawyers or anything, man's was working a 9to5 job and had other stuff going on. Before you wanna argue with me though: YES. There is a difference between stealing and paying hommage. One famous example is Drake biting Eminem's Superman flow on Chicago Freestyle: "But I do know one thing though/ Bitches, they come, they go/ Saturday through Sunday, Monday / Monday through Sunday, yo/ Maybe I'll love you one day/ Maybe we'll someday grow". The only good thing Drake ever did was changing Em's "Bitches" to "Women" on his song. Other than that: exact same few bars. This is a hommage. Why? Because Eminem, that's why. You can pay hommage to great, well-known artists with good bars. It takes a common ground of knowledge from artist to audience to make a hommage like this work. That can go well. Kendrick copies the flow of a Kanye West song on HiiiPower and it works just fine because you listen to either of the song and think: "Ah yeah exactly, that one part, okay, I see you." You don't pay hommage to a small, unknown, indie-rapper by copying his whole verse about his Mom, when you would never say stuff like that on your records before. You don't, because it wouldn't work. None of your listeners would understand the innuendo at all, because no one ever heard of the "great guy you'd be paying hommage to". So shut up.
Music: It's just not that good. Like yeah, he had a few bangers, but let's not exaggerate. Artistically Drake does not offer anything. If he ever did, he probably left all of that on the first few albums he still rapped on. His delivery sucks, his singing voice sounds like he's tryna be The Weeknd at times but isn't. The lyrics aren't special. What the fuck?
Euphoria: Even before getting deeper into hiphop, I've always hated the way Drake presents himself. When Kendrick said: "I hate the way that you walk, talk, dress" I felt that. I hate the way he "raps", the way he drags his words, the way he laughs, the way he "sings". Just a whole lotta shit I dislike about the guy.
Sneak Dissing: If you want beef then get in line, don't just kinda allude to it, you weak ass bitch
SENSITIVE ASS BITCH: I love a man who's in tune with his feelings but Drake being the cosplaying gangsta clown he is, acts like he's all tough when in reality, you can't really say shit to him, cause he "can't let this shit slide, ay".
Kendrick's Control Verse drops - a verse calling out multiple rappers saying Kendrick will come for them in friendly competition for the crown of being the best. Drake was mentioned. Everyone thinks it's kinda cool and goes along. Drake is mad. In an interview he basically said he found it fake because the next time he saw Kendrick "it was all love" and that he wanted it "to be real. Let it be real then". Okay crodie, next time you get called out in a fair rap competition, best believe I'll sock you in your fucking throat, I gotchu.
The Weeknd doesn't sign to Drake's label OVO after working with Drake for a while. Drake is mad again and feels betrayed. Why you gotta be like this?
Kendrick says that he doesn't wanna collab with Drake because their music is too different, not because of anything personal. He just doesn't see it happen in the near future because it would not match artistically. Drake gets mad.
Drake stopped beefing with Pusha T back in the day. Probably because he exposed his son. But still, if you want beef, then clean up your plate, bc you eat what you order and dont't just start to "let this shit slide, ay"
("allegedly") being involved in XXXTentacion's passing back in 2018 over beef. This beef started because of the flow of X's popular song Look at Me!, which Drake stole shortly after letting X know his management would contact him about a possible collab. As you can imagine, X was never contacted by Drake's people. The kid was 20 years old, man. He said some outrageous shit at times, but no one deserves to go out like he did.
Also, the famous DMX ("Y'all gon make me lose my mind!") once said in an interview that he'd like to punch Drake in the face and I support that. Kendrick and his homies laughed at the clip - as did everybody else, cause it's hilarious if a beast and a legend of hiphop hates Drake. Drake was mad at Kendrick laughing about it and not taking it seriously. What did he expect? Should Kendrick have went after DMX and made him apologize for what he said about lil Aubrey? How old are you? 5?
Drake gets mad at a lot of shit - bottom line. I could go on and on, but I've been writing this for hours, it's half past 3 am and I wanna sleep after uni and work, y'all.
DURING THE DISS-ERTATION: this section is about shit Drake did during the beef with Kendrick.
Saying Kendrick's Like That verse was weak af. That's your core response? Someone flames you and people are already throwing ass to the mere sound of it and you think: "Huh, that sucked anyway." Pathetic.
Calling Kendrick short (over and over and over again) as if his height is under his control/ his fault? - as if that takes way from Kendrick's skill, Kendrick's allegations againt Drake! - as if that means ANYTHING AT ALL to people over the age of like... 12?
Going after anybody's family in the first place. I know nothing is really "off-limits" in a rap battle like this, but please have the fucking decency. Don't mention my Momma, my kids, my dog, my fam, my friends who ain't got nothing to do with the fact that I hate you. I will say I am not proud of Kendrick for getting down on that level himself - but I would be lying if I said I didn't enjoy Meet The Grahams and the sheer panic it induced. And sometimes I gotta be a little childish and yell "But Aubrey started ittt!"
Hitting on Whitney in The Heart Part 6. Don't go for another man's treasure, you absolute dog. Accusing Whitney of being unfaithful. My friend, this beef is about us (the Culture) hating you and the things you do. Stop trying to shift this into something it is not.
Reacting to diss tracks via instagram stories and memes, like he's that one popular girl in 7th grade who's gotta clap back to something someone said in school on her IG. Shut up.
Calling The Weeknd and his manager gay. Are we not over homophobia yet? Being queer is not an insult. Also falsely "accusing" people of being gay is uncool as fuck - but oh "You don't know nun bout dat!" bc false accusations are basically everything you do - and also possibly outing someone like that is fucking hurtful as shit. I know the people involved are probably not queer at all, but if they were - period.
Using AI in a song at all. Drake, you already proved you suck. Don't force it down our throats. What part of you thought it would make you look good? What part said it would be good to do in a diss track, when the world knows diss tracks are even more a show of capability than other songs. Nah, you go and use AI. Idc about your "mind games": Using AI Snoop Dogg is just weird as fuck cause the Doggy is still well and alive - if you want him to feature on your song, call the legend and ask hi- oh wait, you knew he woulda said "Aww hell nah!" cause everyone hates you? Huh. Snoop probably woke up one day, hit a blunt and asked "When the FUCK did I collab with Drake?". Anyway, using AI 2Pac is straight up disrespectful, when you know damn well the guy would've hated you if he knew who you'd become. Just doing this because it's 2Pac, because you can and not even asking for permission of Pac's people is crazy. Glad the shit was taken down anyways.
The 8 Mile "Airing Out Your Dirty Laundry"-Trick before the big battle does NOT invalidate future claims on you diddling kids. No. Not even if 2Pac says it first. Nah.
His Damage Control Effort in post to make it seem like/make us believe that he's in control, when Kendrick has been bodying him is hilariously embarrassing. Anyone can claim the mole was fake "all along" after it happened.
Making fun of Kendrick for his verse on Taylor Swift's Bad Blood is just stupid. Look at all the features Drake does. Rihanna, BadBunny, DJ Khaled, Future, PartyNextDoor, Lil Wayne, Diddy, Nicki Minaj, Wizkid, ..... the list is so fucking long (I'm just picking at random songs at this point, cause I do not want my browser/spotify history to be associated with Drake's music. I don't wanna go out of my way to say he NEEDS these people to stay relevant but let's face it: His discography and his success would be different if it weren't for them
Acting like he's so great for "finally making Kendrick rap again" - Sir, you don't write your shit on your own, stfu. You don't invest time and effort into your vapid albums. YOU should be thankful for Kendrick destryoing you, giving us the best few lines out of you in a long time.
Not addressing important shit. We been over the allegations, I will not repeat them in this post cause this is already long enough. BUT y'all on the same page as me, aight? Instead of addressing EVERYTHING, he just responds with diss tracks that aren't terrible but really not THAT good, yk? Not going into the shit that we want to se addressed.
Acting like disstracks need replay value. Idk if this is a Drake or a fanbase problem, but people really act like Drake's tracks were better, bc you can listen to them more casually. "Kendrick basically made a whole song about Drake" - THIS IS WHAT A DISS TRACK SHOULD BE! Notice how we don't call every song containing a diss immediately a "diss track"? That's why. Diss tracks were meant to hit your opponent in the stomach with witty bars, double entendres, nice delivery and good production. Diss tracks weren't meant to be club bangers - bonus if they do end up being some though, looking at you, Like That and Not Like Us.
Not reading into stuff properly or just not listening. This is a small one, but ngl I hate the fact they got the Mother I Sober reference wrong (The song is NOT about Kendrick being abused, BUT about Kendrick not being abused and his Mom NOT believing him and passing her sa trauma onto him, even though he didn't experience that). Also Kendrick explicitly says "DOT, the money, power, respect / The last one is better" on Like That and Drakes response (again) is "Huh, I have way more money than you and in the industry, I'm way more powerful than you. Also, you so short tihhihi." BITCH he SAID respect was the most important of the three and you disrespect him, not by calling him out by his wrong doings but by picking on physical features the man cannot change like a 5th grade bully.
Anyways. phew. If you made it this far... wow. I'm impressed. I'll keep updating this. Thanks for coming to my beef talk.
