    Kendrick has released nothing but amazing music for quite some time now.


    Is he the greatest rapper of all time? If not, why + where would you place him?

    Lol, I can understand if you're not enjoying Tpab, it's very different from most mainstream albums, but it's an undeniable album as far as quality goes. Not that I care about what critics say, but it deserves every bit of praise.

    Like them n----s from DEHH said, he's coming for that spot.

    All his albums are better than the previous one, so I wouldn't be surprised if he managed to top TPAB with his next release.

    TPAB garnered great attention and positive reception from both fans of hip hop and musicians outside of the genre...wow Kendrick did such a great job I am anxious to see what he can cook up next

    Give him more time, but imo he already has the catalog to be remembered as a potential goat

    Like Dj Quik said, Kendrick is now the greatest rapper to ever come out of the west coast.

    On a all time list, I'd probably say hes top 15

    global grind recently dropped their greatest artists of all time (any genre)

    Kendrick is #3.. and I agree with that

    Highest rated hip hop album of the last 16 years :whew:

    Was listening to it yesterday and was like "how is it even possible to craft such a musical masterpiece" :whew:

    Kdot really has the best team of musicians behind him :whew:

    However, if he was to drop Tpab 2 tomorrow, he'd be in my top 5, dead or alive.

    Yeah but no... I like yg but you can have the argument that every kendrick project is MUCH BETTER than anything yg has ever done. You may like yg projects more but are they better? h--- no, not even close. And kendrick's last album is up there with the best albums of all time lol

    Kdot is actually far better artist than rapper. The reason why his last major album was praised like this was because of its flawless musical composition. Sure he was not the one to make all these studio decisions but still... he was the one with the vision
