I wonder how rappers who are on the whole "I'm not lyrical, I just make fun music for people to dance to" steez feel when things like this happen?

Like, they know they'd be laughed off the face of the Earth by their own fans if they even try to jump into the conversation.

Like...how do they just survive not being able to competitively compete in the genre like that? How do they feel?

:ohhh:
Great question. Hence the reason I said hip hop needed this. Everyone should be in it to be the best, Kendrick just made a lot of nikkas feel terrible for not even attempting to be great.

thats the same thing everybody thought about nas vs jay. that jay was more built for the battle shyt and nas was just a storyteller and shyt like that. but they forgot that nas is a great mind no matter what. and kendrick is from that same school. he can be on the deep intellectual shyt but you can see that he's capable of killing somebody if need be. this was just a jab...just to show a glimpse of what can happen, and all his peers know it. deep down they know he wouldn't have put this out there if he wasn't 100% ready for the challenge. kendrick on his heisenberg "tread lightly" shyt.

Interestin take:ohhh:...I will start off by sayin I still think Jay is more built for the battle shyt when talkin cleverness and concepts...but I feel you,a emcee of a great skill level can always suprise you I guess:manny:.....Nas wuz a lot more battle equipped than Kendrick though,I just expected a serious tone in his response,I didn't think he could match Jays wittiness and ability to talk to nikkas like peons in his prime:pachaha:...but he shocked folks I think by doin Jay on Jay lol....I guess we really don't know Kendrick all that well yet and what wittiness,vulgarness,agression he might bring to the table to call it....this certainly wuz a shock:whew:...so I can't put your theory past em,dude could be a sleeping giant:ohhh:.
