Kendrick Lamar is a perfect example of why your voice, and charisma is important in hiphop

Frank, you are such a jack ass. Even Janelle Monae, your crush loves Kendrick's lyricism.
who else do you enjoy, Frank? They probably like Kendrick as well & most likely inspired to make more music for you in your troll dungeon.


Wait a minute, now i know you are delusional, Agency

Did you just say "too technical to be considered artistic great"?

Well, I guess we have to remove the following people
Coltrane
Charlie Parker
Thelonius Monk
Art Tatum
Bud Powell
Ornette Coleman
Eric Dolphy
Gil Evans
Bill Evans
Art Pepper
Duke Ellington
Billy Strayhorn
Jon Hendricks
Chick Corea
Herbie Hancock
Ella Fitzgerald


Because they are just technical to be considered an "Artistic great" in Jazz as well. Holy shyt, I'm glad you cleared that up, Agency.

When someone uses the term too technical when describing art, you know that they're a fukking moron.

When did I ever say that? :dwillhuh:

The rest of your post is all over the place
What's all over the place is your critique for any rapper that you don't like. None of it makes any goddamn sense of your critique for Kendrick. You don't even understand definitions properly & you are obsessed with commenting on Kendrick, You are in every single goddamn thread. Who beat you up that was a Kendrick fan? This is the only thing that can explain it. We get it, you don't like Kendrick & you want to troll for Rocky. That's your M.O.

I've already dispelled them fixed ratings, go ahead finish handing yourself though
How is it a fixed rating? Any fan can go on there and rate music whether they like it or not.

Do you understand how Metacritic works? You think is a conspiracy against Hip Hop that Kendrick's TPAB is well received by fans? You are in the minority, there is nothing wrong with that.

How many people on that list are rappers


HOV, drake, Wayne, Kanye pretty much every rapper that's been at the top had personality and charisma wether you like that artist or not. Lamar lacks the IT factor which will keep him from being at the top. Even though he's better lyrically he's on the same level as j Cole and peers. I take that back, wale is better lyrically than Lamar and put out a better album :francis:

People have been doubting Kendrick ever since he was putting out mixtapes. I think he will continue to grasp the public eye on the next one as well..

Do you really want to do this, Frank? Name the last ten rappers you didn't think were overrated. Now when you name those names, understand the chances that 7 out of 10 are probably Kendrick listeners & hold his lyricism in high regard as a writer.

:aicmon:Lyricism isn't some sport like weight lifting, you can be lyrical in a myriad of ways.

To chime in on that future vs kendrick charisma thing, they both have a ton charisma, just totally different styles. Charisma isn't just being "cool", its about inspiring people and getting them to follow you & your movement. Obviously if Kendrick didnt have charisma, he wouldn't be nearly as big as he is, regardless of the "machine" behind him. Now he isn't super flashy like we've traditionally come to expect from rappers, but that doesn't mean he lacks charisma by any means. If anything it just further proves the point that he actually has more charisma than most because he doesn't have to have a gimmicky appearance or "peacock" himself in order to stand out, while legions of whack rappers do THE MOST in order to draw attention to themselves but dont have even an 8th of Kendrick's overall success
This. I think people get caught up in image and then decide if the artist has "charisma" on the mic.

You dont make multiple classic albums and have the best live performances without charisma. Its hilarious the lengths some of these coli posters go to try to discredit kendrick then overrate some mumbling repetitive motherfukker.
