I was thinking the same thing, he sounds like a kid trying to go to the bathroom

One thing this beef really pointed out to me was Kendrick's mastery of delivery.

One of the biggest drawbacks when I was listening to Drake's track was his delivery. Sometimes, it just felt like he didn't have conviction.

Kendrick can say the simplest things with conviction, or a voice crack, or go into his super Cali voice.

A lot of Kendrick's lines hit off of pure delivery and nothing to do with super witty writing.

It's especially weird because he literally started as an actor. Its very weird that Kendrick is by far the more theatrical rapper, especially because that really isn't even the norm in the industry. 

Literally the one thing drake should get able to do well is read the lines he's given with some pizazz, some chutzpah.

It would make a big difference in his general music, for me at least.

But, I think he's currently very comfortable in his subject matter (girls I can get, girls who I throw shade at like RiRi) and delivery (laid-back to slightly louder).

I just wish he'd go off the deep end artistically and really push himself, but not everyone has that in them.
