some of y'all nikkas don't realize greatness when it's right in front of you

[I love Latina women]

lyrically, i ain't heard a nikka this nice and sharp since mos def came through in 98' with the blackstar album with kweli and then his own album in 99' with black on both sides album

but kendrick lamar is the truth. this is the nikka who's got hip hop on lock and in a smash

he's miles, leaps, valleys and peaks past his peers; drake, j cole, big krit (this nikka nice too though!), asap rocky/asap mob, big sean, and whoever is runnin' laps far behind him in this marathon of hip hop and rap music

ain't none of his peers comin' with the shyt he's writin', the songs he's puttin' together, better produced albums etc

2 classic albums so far. yeah, both good kid, m.a.a.d city and to pimp a butterfly are classics. section.80 is the shyt too. kendrick is the best mc in hip hop and the rap game now

lemme put it to you like this, i ain't impressed with hip hop and rap music as a whole no more but i'm a fan of kendrick's and the homie is breathin' life back into this lost, flabby and sick genre of music. thank god!

dap and i tried to +rep but couldn't because i already did recently
i got around to checkin' this album out after good kid m.a.a.d city came out
i'd heard of kendrick but i hadn't taken the time out to check his music out until good kid m.a.a.d. city came out

 

[bugg]

Keep jerkin yourselfs, everybody knows kendrick is a god tier mc the rest just doesn't care for his voice or style

 

[I love Latina women]

bow to your sensei, you wack mcs



i remember listenin' to this every mornin' i went to work whenever it would come on the radio randomly in the early mornin'







the verse that showed these new nikkas what rappin' actually is




the nikka came through and actually made this song worthy to listen too the flow



he can do r&b/hip hop collaboration with ease







came through with spittin' in spanish and that beat



ain't pusha t 1 of many of some y'all nikkas favorites? pusha who on this track? and it's pusha's track!

 

[I love Latina women]

He is that dude right now. As far as the new dude doing it. Unlike most of these new dudes he cares about his craft. Every project is straight quality right now. TPAB is gonna be looked at as that ground breaking album along with D'Angelo's latest album. A lot of people don't know quality music because they've been conditioned to like what's out now. It started in 05. Sales dropped. Mixtapes became albums. The Southern wave crushed everything. Along with 50 braggin about sales and starting beefs for pub. From 05 to 09 shyt was a dessert. Auto tune became the wave. Then drill/trap. And now it's fake eclectic sing songy rappers mixed with the trap auto tuned unrecognised lyrics. Im saying this as a bad thing but i do like trap beats.

Then Kendrick brings a sound in mainstream that we haven't heard in so long. Reppin the west, giving props to the legends, putting a string of talent together to deliver a message. All while making a completely cohesive project. Props to him. 3 of my favorite artists of 2015 were Lupe, Kendrick, and The Game .

That's one of my main issues with him. I can't objectively say that he's wack. but, personally, I just don't fukk with him.

I can respect that. I'll admit his voice annoys me at times too. Like on the track "U". I couldnt with that drunkin voice. Or the kid voice in "Hood Politics". I still like Hood Politics though.
