Should we be thanking Erykah Badu for Kendrick's new direction?

[MIAlien]

I remember thinking how odd it was for Kendrick to have Erykah Badu perform bytch Don't Kill My Vibe. Then they held hands on the way out and I knew something was up.

After listening to TPAB, I think it's time to acknowledge that K.Dot got lost in the neo-soul vortex of Erykah's sweetness. The big booty temptress has transformed another promising mc into something greater.

Clap for Hip Hop's greatest muse brehs. May she continue to inspire future generations to be great.

Yall hang onto that bullshyt lie too much. Love to talk about "Electric Circus" but then leave out the classic "Like Water For Chocolate" that came before it with songs like "The Light" "6th Sense" "Thelonius" "Geto Heaven",etc.

Talk about Andre turning into a weirdo like we didn't get classics like "Aquemi" and "Stankonia" while he was in a relationship with her





oh boy she definitely ruined him with that 5 mic Source rating...

so she gets no credit for the direction of LWFC and Aquemi but she gets blame for Electric Circus huh breh?

Kendrick also gained inspiration from d`angelo`s black messiah for TPAB

 

[noumena]

I said that in my thread. Kendrick been taking notes from Badu but you don't hear me though

 

[okocharuud]

D'Angelo & the Vanguard Black Messiah

Perfect warm up before TPAB was released

 

[Piff Perkins]

Was it weird? He originally wanted her on the hook of Sing Abour Me off GKMC but ran out of time.

Heavily influenced, right down to the album cover.
