"Kendrick Lamar and J Cole are this decade's Mos Def & Talib Kweli" - Dude From The Needle Drop

[Un-AmericanDreamer]

Anthony fantano is an annoying hipster clown. I hate him

My ivory queen, you got the original of this?

 

[Osmar]

disagree their sound is way more mainstream friendly.

 

[OnlyInCalifornia]

Corny comparison. In fact I would argue its lazy too. Just pick any two people and say they are like another two people

Whos supposed to be Talib? IMO Kendrick and J Cole are better MCs than he is.....

I got it from a tweet I saw from some dude making black lives matter hats with that image on the front..can't find it..try reverse image searching for it

I think he's just saying that in terms of them both being this generation's notable socially aware artist. I doubt he's saying that they are on the same level as they are. That comparison doesn't make sense though.

Cac hip hop opinions

Yet they qualify enough when lists agree with us

 

[☑︎#VoteDemocrat]

I see it.Watered down versions, tho.

Especially Cole

i'd rather listen to kendrick than cole like 75% of the time

I've never qualified one.

That Fantano bytch knows his stuff about music as a whole but his grasp on hip-hop music and culture is a D-

These two barely got shyt in common with Kweli and Mos. they're different artists with different styles, and different ambitions.

Get this lame ass outta here

if Pitchfork an Complex had a child , it would be Anthony Fantano

ole "play it safe" ass nikka

 

[iFightSeagullsForBread]

Kendrick = Mos >> Talib >>>>>>>>Cole

 

[MikeyC]

Can see where he's coming from, but Cole is too much of a weak link.

 

[KravenMorehead™]

no they not

 

[kingdarius]

cole got too many woman centric tracks to be compared to them

 

[Illin Degenerate]

vocally i can see a kendrick kweli comparison, both are like listening to paint dry.
