Drake was out rhymed and out maneuvered in his battle with Kendrick Lamar, but that doesn't mean Kendrick ruined his career.
50 Cent spoke about the battle in an interview with Billboard and said he told Drake something similar: That he's still winning overall due to being one of the biggest artists in the world.
"I was telling him, it’s not him. I’m listening on the outskirts, it’s not you. Don’t let yourself think that for a second," 50 said he told Drake. "On some real sh*t, I said, 'They said you lost, okay? Well, what did you lose?' What exactly did he lose if he got $300 something million on his last tour? You didn’t lose a motherf*cking thing, man."
"And I love Kendrick, but I’ll say it to you: I didn’t see where what [Drake] did was wack at any point," he continued. "They giving [Drake] the, 'Oh you wack, you finished.' I’m like, 'Nah, come on.' That’s the system trying to make some sort of resistance and it’s from the consistency."
Again, many have said Drake lost that one music battle against Kendrick, not his star power or earning potential.
Why do you think people often confuse the two?
