May 8, 2024 Kendrick is the false messiah of hip hop. Mediocrity at it's finest. He came out at a time where rap became stagnant, mainstream, and repetitive. He had Dr. Dre behind him, amongst a plethora upon dozens of writing credits backing him, and used Tupac's mythology to try and revive the Compton image through legacy status. They took a straight A student with asthma out of Compton with the name "Duckworth" and manufactured him into rap’s great hope. My Adolescence on Angel Dust is erroneously referred to as weed laced with cocaine, when angel dust is actually PCP, and cocaine cannot be smoked in a joint (hence why the crack & the crackpipe were invented). He goes on to praise the Negus in TPAB the exact same African kings that began the slave trade. Nobody reads too deep into his music because you see how actually surface level shallow it all is, his entire discography is littered with fallacies and hyperbole.
May 9, 2024 Kendrick has released some mid stuff. But to say he’s a mid rapper all together is laughable.
May 9, 2024 Drake is trash too. Kanye Wayne and Drake ruined hip hop by allowing it to be accessible and digestible for women. Before when it was strictly a man's sport, it was far superior. This essentially paved the way for beta males like Kendrick to get in the limelight. PS - most of these modern rap clowns would get eaten alive in the streets of Toronto
May 9, 2024 Maybe for psudeo-intellectual blue haired feminists, but people that actually understand, live, and breathe the hip hop culture truly know Kendrick is a goof.
May 9, 2024 It’s a cute gimmick, and I can see why you might think this is something I’d come up with. Unfortunately I can’t take credit for this one. Posting in all bold letters is too genius even for me. This is just a case of yet another person copying me. It’s probably one of the Canadians on this site. I’m a red blooded god fearing American
