    I don&apos;t think people &nbsp;comprehend that mentality, Kobe &amp; Kendrick as well as most who excel as they have, have one thing in common~ ✌🏾

    This is such a fantastic video, truly! It also makes me think how ‘Reputation’ on the surface seems scathing and all about hate but deep down it’s an album about love and the lengths you will go to, to protect love and peace.<br><br>You’re absolutely spot on, I think that’s one facet of their artistry that’s so similar; they are both deeply moved and inspired by the concept of love that if anything or anyone threatens theirs (their reputation (self-love), their family, their lovers), they are not afraid to protect those things no matter how muddy it might get. Years later Taylor still admits “When I dropped my sword I threw it in the bushes and knocked on your door. And we live in peace but if someone comes at us, this time I’m ready.” So similar to Kendrick’s sentiment of “I’m sorry that I live a boring life, I love peace but war-ready if the world is ready to see you bleed” — they both are more concerned with protecting their peace and living their lives but if someone’s going to keep antagonising them they’re not just going to sit back and accept that. <br><br>I really hope the future allows them to work together one more time. I’d be grateful for ANYTHING but imagine it wasn’t another “huge” pop record but rather something similar to Midnights of Folklore. I keep thinking they both have such interesting things to say about fame (from two different viewpoints), they could do something beyond cool if they wanted! ❤️

    Kendrick actually has the game like 😪🫩. He good for this audience though💯 but this audience is not hiphop - hiphop is the mad city these are the good kids, in hiphop the good kids aint qualified for the number one spot except for early kanye so far. I&apos;m glad he got rid of Drake tho bcuz he didn&apos;t belong in the culture at ALL let alone holding the torch.💯
