Drake vs. Kendrick: A Stan's Heartbreak
Aired May 17, 2024
This was a solo episode. Lauren was off for her birthday, and honestly, I needed to do this one alone. After weeks of dodging headlines, Reddit threads, and leaked diss tracks, I finally broke my silence on the Kendrick vs. Drake beef.
My birthday twin. My Scorpio soulmate. And the moment I realized I might not be able to defend him anymore. If you know me, you know I’ve spent years loving him, defending him, folding him into my identity like a second skin. What began as a fun fact turned into a fully-formed parasocial identity.
When Kendrick dropped a verse on Like That, and I did what any loyal twin would do: I ignored it. I logged off. I didn’t want it to be true. But eventually, the truth was unavoidable.
This episode is part timeline breakdown, part stan spiral. I talk through the diss tracks, the rollout chaos, and the complicated heartbreak of realizing your twin is (and maybe always has been) the problem.
There’s no clean conclusion here. I haven’t fully switched sides. I haven’t fully forgiven. But this was the first time I let myself admit that Drake’s unseriousness wasn’t cool–and maybe never was.
