So if we're looking at this battle h joh. 609 00:29:27,000 --> 00:29:31,600 Speaker 1: Rule fifty Drake, I just think Drake Drake, because Drake 610 00:29:31,680 --> 00:29:32,520 Speaker 1: is so being No. 611 00:29:32,520 --> 00:29:33,640 Speaker 4: No, I just think Drake. 612 00:29:36,600 --> 00:29:38,800 Speaker 6: He might have lost the battle, you know what I'm saying, 613 00:29:38,840 --> 00:29:41,000 Speaker 6: But I think he lives on to make more hits. 614 00:29:41,400 --> 00:29:44,280 Speaker 6: He still does his stadiums. I still think he's the 615 00:29:44,320 --> 00:29:45,680 Speaker 6: biggest rap star on the world. 616 00:29:45,760 --> 00:29:48,640 Speaker 4: Like I don't. I think he's the biggest rap star 617 00:29:48,680 --> 00:29:49,200 Speaker 4: in the world. 618 00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:53,920 Speaker 1: By losing this, does he lose? Does he does any luster, 619 00:29:54,360 --> 00:29:55,800 Speaker 1: any shine come off his luster? 620 00:29:56,040 --> 00:29:57,640 Speaker 4: Yeah? But we'll soon to see. 621 00:29:59,000 --> 00:30:01,200 Speaker 6: We'll soon to see because if Drake comes out with 622 00:30:01,240 --> 00:30:03,280 Speaker 6: ten hits in a row, fifteen hits in a row, 623 00:30:03,560 --> 00:30:06,200 Speaker 6: we forget, we forget that he lost the battle. 624 00:30:06,840 --> 00:30:07,040 Speaker 2: You know. 625 00:30:07,480 --> 00:30:10,680 Speaker 6: See the problem with Jake, with Ja Ruhl and fifty 626 00:30:11,240 --> 00:30:15,680 Speaker 6: is that fifty slowed him up to where before that 627 00:30:15,840 --> 00:30:17,440 Speaker 6: Ja ru was the Drake of the. 628 00:30:17,520 --> 00:30:18,760 Speaker 2: Term with all the heads. That's what. 629 00:30:19,000 --> 00:30:22,040 Speaker 6: Yeah, So what I'm saying is I believe that Drake 630 00:30:22,080 --> 00:30:25,320 Speaker 6: will drop ten fifteen hits in a row and it'll 631 00:30:25,360 --> 00:30:27,760 Speaker 6: be like, yo, you caught that l that term like 632 00:30:28,680 --> 00:30:31,880 Speaker 6: some you know, some people think jay Z lost the knobs, 633 00:30:32,120 --> 00:30:35,040 Speaker 6: but jay Z's jay Z correct, you understand. 634 00:30:35,080 --> 00:30:36,920 Speaker 4: So I think that's what's gonna happen with this. 635 00:30:38,440 --> 00:30:41,400 Speaker 1: Can you explain the jah rule in fifty six by 636 00:30:41,840 --> 00:30:44,960 Speaker 1: to the best of your estimation?
