I honestly don't and have no problem explaining why.
Flows/vocal performance are trash.
Lyrics are weak.
Voice awful.
I'm not impressed.
He has all these so called classics with barely any memorable verses, hooks etc.
Greatly promoted and marketed.
That's about it

I like his flows. I agree that they aren't standout though. But he's shown an ability to change it up, so that's something. I think he has a good vocal performance though sometimes hindered by that monotonous drone-y sound. He wasn't blessed with the best rap voice.

Lol @ "I'm not impressed being an explanation"
:russ:

He has some great verses and definitely great hooks. bytch Don't Kill My Vibe, Alright, King Kunta, HUMBLE etc.
:francis:

He is greatly marketed, but so are all the other greats. You don't have to like his music. I'm not a huge fan of Nas' music for the most part, but I respect what he's done and he's a GOAT lyricist.

Dope flows DO stand out.
Wack ones don't.
You're speaking oxymoronic nonsense

Not entirely true. DIFFERENT flows stand out. Unique flows usually. Of course dope flows will stand out but more importantly it's a different flow. Twista, Busta Rhymes, Das EFX, Migos all flow differently.

There’s no project that can make TPAB, GKMC, DAMN or S80 “Laughable”.

I prefer the rapper Nas as a whole, but to say it’s not even a discussion shows your bias. Kendrick is a better musician too by the way.

Bro spare your breath. These people will never give in.

Same people will tell you Nas vs ICE CUBE is not even a discussion. Nas is untouchable in their eyes.

:salute: to you for being rational about this.
 

really tho

Dope flows OR MORE IMPORTANTLY dope performances stand out.

It's the reason people will forever remember:

"I wanna rock right now,i'm rob base and i came to get down..."

"now i dialed 911 a long time ago...."

"b.i.g. p.o.p.p.a. ,no info for the D.E.A...."

"out on bail,fresh outta jail california dreamin.."

"look what you done started ,ask for it you got it,had it ,should of shot it..."

"dmx and my doggs bite,jigga,MY nikka rhyme all night..."

"you can cha cha cha to this mardi grais"

"Yo I be buyin em V's, so all my girls be eyein Cease
Comin backstage, dyin to get pleased"

"
Mirror mirror on the wall
Tell me mirror what is wrong?
Can it be my De La Clothes
Or is it just my De La Soul"

"Girl you workin with some ass yeah, you bad yeah
Make a nikka spend his cash yeah, his last yeah
Hoes frown when you pass yeah, they mad yeah
You gon' ride in the Jag yeah..."

"This is for the ones who wobbled it and be puttin they mouth on it
An they suck everything out of it then they catch it and swallow it
I'm Lil Weezy for sheezy, I'm off the heezy believe me
See me, I squeeze in between it, and then I leave it so greasy"

"
OH NO! The FIGHT'S OUT
I'ma bout to punch yo... LIGHTS OUT
Get the fukk back, guard ya grill
There's somethin wrong, we can't stay still
I've been drankin and bustin' too
and I been thankin of bustin' you"

"Well a motherfukker might be broke and shyt
and then collecting no dough from tips
But I be spittin mo' game than a mouthful of poker chips
to get them hoes with the Open lips and the provokin hips"

"Now that I escape sleepwalker awake
Those who could relate know the world ain't cake
Jailbars ain't Golden Gates, those who fake they break
when they meet they four hundred pound mate"

I could post a whole lot more,from an even wider range of artist from the 80's till now.

Meanwhile Kendrick has 4 so called classic albums,allegedly been that nikka since 2012.
And he doesnt even have a few famous verses that people know word for word like that.
Why cause his success is all promo and he's really not that good of a rapper.

honestly it ain't even worth talking about Hip-Hop with someone who thinks Kendrick is better than Nas. It's just an embarrassing position to take and one that erases your credibility... and that's not because Kendrick isn't great, it's because Nas is simply the GOAT.

This!
