1. "I feel like it's mad disrespectful that XXXTENTACION didn't even know Lil Nas X before he passed, and yet Lil Nas X still used him for the Deadman's Co-Sign."
2. "It's pathetic that Drake really thought he'd get the Deadman's Co-Sign off 2Pac by using his AI voice model in the diss track on Kendrick."

Get the arc & co mug.
When brands agree to cross-promote each other. In effect, each brand becomes a separate sales channel for all the others in the group.
When a driver of a high end sedan gets out of the car wearing an expensive watch and a bespoke suit, now that is co-branding. Each of the three brands have agreed to promote each other in RL (Real Life), on television, in print, online, in social media and on the mobile web.
