It's really J Cole. Higher sales, more radio play, higher seat venues

Kendrick hasnt headlined an arena tour, Cole has :manny:

It's undeniable that Kendrick makes WAYYYYYY better music, but Cole is more popular

Cole is popular when he puts out music...hes to far out of the spotlight to be the mega star he is....Kendrick is far more exposed..therefore is more of a face for the brand he represents...

Drake....he self explanatory

2nd.Kendrick.... he more acclaimed than cole in public and in the industry. If Kendrick has any problem it that while his last album was great...it not radio/ top 20 friendly unlike his first album. I and king k were hits but not on the level of his first. ( I don't think he personally cares tho)

J cole 3. last album definitely helped him, while he been popular for half a decade, songs like wet dream was HUGE.

Sean/future

(Jayz/ Kanye not included in this conversation)

The big 3 is Drake, Kendrick, J Cole

Cole and Kendrick are interchangeable really

Cole is prolly a lil bigger than Kendrick in real life in terms of audience. Cole has that whole young girl to young adult audience locked in.

Kdot is close but I don't think the female gender really rock with him like they do cole.

It's not hard to believe it's idoitic as hell to think. A mega star like Kendrick who has literally became an international star is less relevant than a trap star who is only widely known in the US
why is this hard to believe?[/QUOTE

Kendrick isn't as big as you think he is
Breh when Future gets two platinum albums a couple Grammys and nominations for an album than we can talk for now he ain't even on the same block as Kendrick breh at this point we could dam near say there's only top 3 rappers in this era and their clearly J COLE KENDRICK AND Drake
