​It looks like the classic rent a raper scenario, where the motivation is commercial.

Taylor realizes after Style that she needs help making the 4th single a hit, after selling so many albums. And Kendrick, after doing 2 albums for hip-hop purists, may want exposure on pop radio.

It will ironic if Taylor follows Katy's ET model (also a 4th single) and gets a prestige rapper, but fails utterly to match the success of ET with her Katy diss song.

​Yes, this is for commercial motivations but he could not be further from a rent a rapper. BOB, Travie McCoy, Iggy, Twista... Those are. Kendrick Lamar is a Grammy award winning, critically acclaimed and respected rapper.

Also, talks about Bad Blood getting a remix started even before Style was announced as third single, so she didn't realize anything. This is not a cheap shot at getting #1, like Katy with those Missy Eliott, BOB and Riff Raff two cent remixes she released after ET

​Well, her seven Grammys, including AOTY, awarded to her by her peers in the industry beg to differ

​Yeah, I don't like him nor his music at all, but calling Kendrick Lamar a rent a rapper is the dumbest thing I've ever heard.

​mmm I do not agree, her songwriting may be good, but her vocals and her music production is lackluster and bubblegum imho...name one song that will be iconic/remembered in 20 years...then we'll talk.

​Well, she still wound up with critical acclaim for all her albums and ended up on many year end and best of lists, so not that many people have problems with her vocals and production. And it's impossible to know what will be Iconic in 20 years. It that's what you worry about when you stan then :rip:

It would be hilarious if Katy had a walk on role! The internet would EXPLODE!

Just repeat to yourself, "It's just a show. I should really just relax."

If he really is on it imma be pissed. He's worth more than a rent a rapper feature to solely bump Taylor up a few places on the Hot 100. No disrespect to her or anything but let's be real, that's would be the sole purpose of this. I really hope this doesn't happen.

So his team didn't let him release bdkmv and partynasaeous because they didn't want him to be associated with gaga but let's him work with Taylor. Gags gets discriminated against so much in this industry and it irks me :miley:

​You got it all twisted bro... His team wanted her to use auto-tune on bdkmv, But her team wasn't having it and they pull the plug on both collabos/songs. Her team didn't want her to be associated with Kendrick. They actually don't want her to be associated with any rapper or R&B singer. And Gaga does not get discriminated against in the industry.... On the contrary, She discriminates against most artists in the industry.

i think it would've been cool if she did a All of The Lights type of remix for it, with like a dozen artists as BGvox & have a few sing parts of it

​Everyone dragging Katy..

 

I can see Gaga pulling up her tweets for her part in the song.. 

"Mechanical Horses don't fix Bullet Holes.."

"Cause baby now we got Green Hair"

"You used to call me New Madonna but better

:sis:

I'll lift you 3 inches off the ground and drag you to a meter and a half
