Aug 4, 2016 The man tries to renegade every feature he's on, most of the time which ends up hurting the quality and cohesiveness of the songs. Ex. On Me, Autumn Leaves He says he does it out of competition but if that's the case then he's losing by making the song worse. His whole persona is nothing new, tpab is your generic conscious album but his fans ride him so much that they consider it new and innovative. People have been using funk and jazz production on rap songs for years. Now let's get into some of his corniest lines. "The head still good tho, the head still good tho" "I'm on the toilet when I rhyme" "Die from lead showers I pray my d-ck get big as the eiffel tower" "Head is the answer" "Sharing bars like you're in a 2 man cell" - s--- is so simple but he gets a pass bc hes Kendrick Anything to do with the "yams" The whole thing where he rapped in Spanish on collard greens. Any other rapper did that he would be a culture vulture. Could name so many more lines Not to mention how unbelievablely corny "Control" was, man said nothing in his verse until he decide to name drop a bunch of rappers then people jumped on it. Sean and Jay Elec were trying to say stuff in their verses but Kendrick once again had to try and steal the spotlight for "competition". Not to mention the impact he left on other rappers. Bc of that verse, the Chicago rapper Rico Recklezz thought he could do the same and call out every rapper from the Chi. Now he's getting death threats left and right. I could go on all day but I'll give y'all a chance to refute my facts
Aug 4, 2016 Didn't read the thread and not sure he's even being serious but yeah Kendrick's always come off as super corny to me. I'm mainly talking outside of his music and when he talks about Pac, the nwa interview too. I don't know, just seems like an annoying corny dude, but that's just me.
Aug 4, 2016 That's the only thing y'all can say even tho the entire post is filled with facts smh. Keep living in yallsdelusional world I guess
Aug 4, 2016 How I could forget the corniest thing yet. He made a shoe with REEBOK in 2015, jesus Christ
Aug 4, 2016 Will you guys at least admit him re creating the Pac spitting incident was corny as f---? They had like a 5 min video of him trying to spit like Pac for a magazine cover lol.
Aug 4, 2016 "People have been using funk and jazz production on rap songs for years." and yet, like Dj Quik said, kendrick may be the very first rapper to successfully go back to almost every single stage of black music. This album goes way back...we may be talking about the past 50 years of funk and jazz
Aug 4, 2016 That makes it even worse imo, I'm sure he could have come up with his own idea if he wanted.
Aug 4, 2016 Op managed to convince me that kendrick was even better than I thought he was. Thank you, OP.
