Is Kendrick Lamar now Top 5 Rapper of all time ?

[Nostalgic]

No.

 

[((ReFleXioN)) EteRNaL]

Easily

 

[Fanservice]

Top 5 of his era for sure.

All time? I always felt like that should automatically go to influential og’s (Rakim, Nas, etc.)

It feels weird moving the og’s out the way. It’s gonna be even harder when some of them start passing away. But one day we might have to consider making room for newer artists

 

[Not Crodie]

Top 3 minimum

 

[tehparadox]

Easily...Best discography of all time.

 

[derro13]

Hes eligible for top 3 all time based on catalog alone

This thread seems like it gets made every week

I think K. Dot is GOAT, but some of these threads go overboard sometimes

 

[African Peasant]

No.

Kendrick is like Kanye in 08 or 50 in 03.

Too much (manufactured ?) hype clouding stans judgement.

 

[Ike omad]

Easily. Like common said, nobody released more classics than kendrick

 

[Ike omad]

If Blu ain't sniffing top 5 and Kendrick hasn't made an album better than him dot ain't top 5.

But I'm sure younger people will say differently. Same shyt that resulted in putting wayne in the goat conversation. Every generation wants their own guy.

Blu never made an album as good as tpab objectively, not even close to being close

 

[verhonggen]

He been top 5 for years...not only he has a goat disco, he also has an album contender for best album ever made in any genre

 

[Black Excellence]

Easily.

He been top 3 for me since Mr Morale, the beef and this run got him goated.

 

[Ducktales]

I like Kendrick and in regards to success he will be. But no he is not even close to my personal top 5. shyt I’m from Atlanta and I got 3 members of wu-tang higher than him (ghost, Rae, and of course method man . None of them in my top 10 either . I got all his cds too so I’m really not hating at all.

 

[KFBF]

I'm sure you can name 50 lyrical miracle rappers

I probably couldn't csuse I don't listen to lyrical miracle rappers like that.

Maybe not to me, personally but objectively he certainly has a strong case.

If a gen z’r said it I wouldn’t knock it.
