Is Drake done? How does he come back from this?

Not that I really care too much, but I do find the whole thing interesting. If I'm listening to rap these days, I'm mostly listening to what I listened to in high school and college. That said, I always found Drake to be corny.

Kendrick has crushed that dude's soul. There's no retort, there's no diss track coming back at Kendrick...Drake's running towards lawsuits and away from the fight. And with what Kendrick did at the Super Bowl halftime show....damn. No pun intended. Everything from teasing about playing Not Like Us, to actually playing it, to changing up the new lyrics in the beginning of the song, to looking straight at the camera and saying "Hey Drake, I hear you like 'em young" to the crowd yelling "a minor" to having Serena out there crip walking to the crowd spelling GAME OVER in lights...I mean, holy shit.

That's the atom-bomb of ending a rap battle.

People still watch the Superbowl halftime show?

As a side note, I think this was the worst Superbowl ever. Boring as hell (a blowout), with two teams nobody likes, and "entertainment" that wasn't entertaining.

I don't get rap, and I don't listen closely enough to have heard the shot at Drake. But I also understand I am not their target audience. I did enjoy the dancing and the big moment feel of the performance.

Say Drake, I hear ya like them young
You better not ever go to cell block one
To any b*tch that talk to him and they in love
Just make sure you hide your lil sister from him
