"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 jazzcanyouduck, Chigzzer, Groovy Tony and 11 others like this. -

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.

Kendrick haters redefining the meaning of "corny". I have rarely seen that level of corniness in posts before.
It's like they're trying hard to find something to discredit kendrick.ANOZ, Groovy Tony, Royston Drenthe and 5 others like this. -

lol that guy kon acting like people are just trying to defend kendrick when he doesn't even know why kendrick, as a person, appears to be corny to him. What a comedian.Groovy Tony, Royston Drenthe, h Allu and 4 others like this. -

It seems to me you're just trying hard to have a hot topic, nothing you posted appears to be "corny". Not to mention that kendrick's personality is often what most rap heads like the most about him. He seems like a genuine guy who knows where he comes from.Groovy Tony, Royston Drenthe, h Allu and 4 others like this.
