While some, like Charlamagne tha God, called the confrontation between Drake and Kendrick Lamar the greatest rap battle ever, others didn't care for it. 

Questlove is one of those people. In May, he called it "a wrestling match level mudslinging and takedown by any means necessary."

Another individual troubled by the battle is André 3000, who said it made him feel kind of bad.

"I got a little sad at a certain point," he told Crack Magazine. "In early rap battles, you had kids in the park rapping against each other. But it’s not just people rapping now. You got people with 100 employees. You have livelihoods, empires, companies, deals — all of it can be jeopardized ... If you don’t have anything to lose, sure, go for it. But if I already made it, I’m not sure it’s even worth it any more."

Would you prefer that Drake and Kendrick just tried to out-rhyme each other in the battle instead of doing all of the mudslingings, or are you happy with how things played out?
