2017 Rapper of The Year

[Canada Goose]

Surprised Cardi B is not on the list.

I voted for Jay Z, I didn't listen to much new Hip Hop this year but I listened to Jay's new and loved it, so my vote goes to him.

[MINT]

Kendrick and its not close to being close

he had the best selling album this year, as well as the most acclaimed

 

[Not Crodie]

Kendrick dominated music (music...not just hip hop), both critically and commercially. He wins

 

[Nuuko]

Kendrick and this is not up to debate.

#1 in sales
#1 consensus AOTY
#1 hottest artist

 

[We Ready]

Royce or Conway

 

[MaNu Minu]

Musically speaking: Kendrick
Popularity wise: Kendrick


this is a no brainer tbh

 

[Pop123]

Only album I heard on that list is Jayz and to me that shyt got weaker as time went by. I picked Cyhi because I saw like 4 or 5 freestyles of him this year and he went crazy on every last one of them with the bars.

 

[Kenzo Ten]

Kendrick made it seems like he had no competition this year. He's completely dominating all these end year lists as if he was the only contender for aoty and he made hip hop more popular than pop in 2017.

He won, plain and simple

 

[Kenzo Ten]

I can't remember the last time a rapper had the whole shyt on lock. Eminem was probably the best seller of 2000-2002, but he was never acclaimed like that. Kendrick really had everything going for him this year

 

[tysigna]

Kendrick had my favorite album this year so him

 

[Sonic Boom of the South]

Lil Peep

 

[derro13]

It's like asking who was nba mvp in the 90s... Kendrick and it's not close to being close

 

[Blankthawtz]

Troy Ave.....if you wont' pay for him...pray for him...or spray for him...ain't shyt u can say to him!


*powder*
