R.A. The RUGGED Man: 'Kendrick is Not a Top Five Lyricist'

[GrindtooFilthy]

Ra is only saying that because kendrick is popular.

as a pure lyricist, kendrick is way better (and the word "way is important than Ab-Soul, Joey Badass (lol at mentioning that kid in the discussion), Wale, Cole, Freddie Gibbs and the rest of that group.
He ain't on Lupe or Elzhi levels but I don't consider them as new rappers.

let's keep this shyt real fukking funky. the only reason you think he's better is because of the fame, if the rest of those nikkas were on the same fame level as him most of you would be on status

Nop, I actually want to hate him for being a mainstream rapper but I have to give credits where its due. The only reason why you don't consider him the best is BECAUSE hes popular.

When section 80 dropped, people started listening to his old stuff and everbody said he was gonna be the next lupe and people were shytting on him for signing to Aftermath.

Cole is on the same level of fame and I think hes trash. And i'd probably still rank Nicki Minaj higher than Joey badass if he was famous. Rapping about nothing in a complex way doesn't make you a lyricist. It's ok to do it but he doesn't have ANY lyrical song, his entire stuff is him rapping in a complex way about nothing.

i've been bumping them both since '09 and i always thought soulo was more lyrical than he was

in reference to the B.I.G.

After their work together Biggie himself was famously quoted when referring to R.A.:“I thought I was the illest”.

Wasn't that all revealed to be bs made up quotes?

I dont want to listen to rippitty rappitty ass rappers. I like listen to people that can rap make good songs. A lot of these so called real lyricists are too busy admiring their rhyme schemes to even realize the actual song is wack

 

[Nephilim_BC]

Better lyricist than Kendrick off the top of my head right now:

All of Slaughterhouse
Locksmith
King Los
Eminem
Nas
Cyhi The Prince
Pusha T
Loaded Lux
Astro Kid
Lupe Fiasco

and there's more...

That's your opinion though. Real lyricism doesn't stop meaning something just because you don't like "rappity rap" lol.

You might like Kendrick's songs but that doesn't change the fact he isn't a top 5 lyricist. the fact this is even a discussion is really strange for me. top 5 rapper? Maybe. Top 5 LYRICIST? Noooooooooo..
