Yeah sorry for the essay everyone, slow day in work. Most of that is entirely fair enough and I'd hold Kendrick's first two albums above any of Drake's work. But you could easily dismiss near enough all of music if you're holding it up to the standards of a Kendrick Lamar album. My viewpoint is more to enjoy the spectacle as a rap fan rather than have a strong emotional attachment to either side. Ultimately we've got two multi millionaires in their mid-to-late thirties going at it with a deluxe version of a playground squabble and it's fantastic. Kendrick won because he's the better rapper, captured the narrative better and released the better songs. But the fact that Drake fought back, landed some blows made the event better, I don't think that's deniable. I don't think Kendrick's ultimate objective was to expose a *once because why would he bother with angles of attack like 'adonis has a sh*tty father', if he can prove far worse. His ultimate aim was to win the beef and he threw the kitchen sink at it and that was kind of thrilling. And not something you'd have previously imagined Kendrick doing, and that was fun too. And you're right, Jay got ethered when Nas released Stillmatic in 2001. Battle well and truly won. But Jay-Z still managed a long and successful career after that and of course eventually signed Nas. And after Jay had retired and Nas had fallen off we had people like Lil Wayne and Rick Ross claiming to be best rapper alive. We've been spoilt since 2012. There is a wider question about the lengths that these fellas go to make their point, the highly problematic nature of a lot of things that get said and those that get caught in the crossfire (usually women of course). But at their age, they're probably on their way down, maybe the next generation will manage to do a bit better on that front.
