Is Kendrick Lamar Overrated?

[Kaypain]

No it's not, it could be an honest objective opinion which it is, bias would be having something against him, to me was the contrary, was looking forward to hearing some great new work and a great MC.

No its very subjective

You can simple say I don't like that song and don't think it's that good but to say it's overrated is saying everyone else's opinion doesn't matter.

GKMC is critically acclaimed but yall elwanna call it overrated or wanna call him a plant or that his music is for white people bunch of bullshyt

I'm confused lol. It's objective because there was no emotional attachment or anything for my opinion to have ANY bias at all. Infact, the only thing there was positive initially. This is like saying people can't have an opinion. Nah, you can say whatever you want, if someone feels he's overrated it means you feel a section rate him too highly comparative to his quality. That's all, EVERYONE is entitled to their opinion, if someone thinks he's better than Pac, Big, Pun, Rakim, Kane rolled into 1 then fair enough, they are entitled to do so, but I'm entitled to feel he's overrated too and that he doesn't stack up with the greats yet. When people say that critical acclaim shyt THAT is what really is trying to dismiss others opinions, plus it's disingenuous to act like there is no politics involved. It's like saying cause a magazine said it's dope we all HAVE to think that, no way. Gonna say what truly feel, everyone should whether they think he's the GOAT or trash.

I think Jay Electronica is better than Kendrick, I hope he releases that album cause I think dude has the potential to really make a great album.

 

[awcommand]

He's right where he's supposed to be i might say.

The most overrated rapper in recent memory. The dikk riding of that mediocre Control verse was just

Yet Krit drops Mt. Olympus which has verses that are supreme to Control and nary a peep from you hip hop nerds. His hype is manufactured and he doesn't have the personality to carry the torch like yall wish he could.

That's what I'm saying, I heard many better projects that year. Due to the position he's in and the marketing I feel that's part of the reason he's overrated.

Where did I compare the 2 albums??? It's fact what I said and that those Mt. Olympus verses were supreme to that wack ass Control verse yet yall were going crazy like that Kendrick verse was some next level shyt.

I'm not saying Kendrick isn't talented but he is no where near as talented as most of you proclaim him to be. He ain't spitting no Lupe Gold Watch type shyt, yall nikkas need to stop

Control wasn't even a Kendrick song that he released and promoted. It was a throwaway verse he gave to Sean that he didn't even think would make the album. Mt. Olympus was Big KRIT really sitting down trying his hardest. KRIT just isn't that good. I do think Kendrick is overrated but it's not a bad thing. He's definitely better than KRIT and better than Lupe when it comes to making full songs and albums that are easy to digest but still get the message out.

I personally don't think kendrick has put out enough music to be considered overrated. Honestly he's still growing as an artist. I could name plenty of artists that's technically better than kendrick. But I would say we need a artist like him in the mainstream.

He ain't definitely better than Krit. Yall talk like that man ain't release Krit Wuz Here or Return of 4eva. Kendrick ain't done enough for u to talk like he's in another galaxy from Krit. That's that overating shyt I'm talking about. Kendrick has the "good ole boys" of the Internet on his side so of course he's gonna be overhyped like this. But Krit can rap, produce, and mix and has put out some of the best mixtapes of the 2000s yet u feel u can just put Kendrick over him without question?

Very interesting times we are in

I thought Mourning In America And Dreaming In Color was much better than GKMC.
