Dare that little nikka to say he the King of Houston or Texas. :bustback:


And if you really keep it all the way 100, GKMC was nice (largely because of the theme and skits) but Kdot is just above average. I've never heard him spit something that made me say "rewind that."

better music is subjective, but if you think kendrick even has a top 5 buzz in atl you are retarded.

there is a long list of rappers who ppl in the atl fukk with more then kendrick

be realistic nikka
So buzz is your criteria. Well in that case how can Kendrick be the King Of NY when he doesn't have the #1 buzz here?

As you say, be realistic.

East Side!
cot damn, as bad as NY music scene is everyone still wants NY's attention, shyt is disgusting. nikkas from other states got NY all in they mouth, TI, you're region has been running shyt for years but yet and still, nikkas know the most coveted title in hip hop is the King of NY. No one cares about the king of LA, the king of ATL or the king of the Chi...no, the only title that matters to these clowns is the king of NY. that's some dikk riding shyt right there if I ever seen.

I wasn't aware radio play was the sole criteria, because you're the only person I've seen in this thread mention it.

Jay-Z gets more radio play in NYC than Kendrick Lamar.


Yoo...ppl need to shut up with their OPINIONS and focus on FACTS

Hot 97 Playlist as of this week
1 NO NEW FRIENDS- DJ KHALED F/ DRAKE, RICK ROSS, & LIL WAYNE
2 B**TCH DON’T KILL MY VIBE - KENDRICK LAMAR
3 POWER TRIP - J. COLE F/MIGUEL
4 BAD - WALE F/TIARA THOMAS
5 MIRRORS - JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE
6 STARTED FROM THE BOTTOM - DRAKE
7 LOVE ME - LIL WAYNE F/ DRAKE & FUTURE
8 CAN'T HOLD US - MACKLEMORE & RYAN LEWIS F/RAY DOLTON
9 READY - FABOLOUS F/CHRIS BROWN
10 SWIMMING POOLS (DRANK) - KENDRICK LAMAR

Power105.1 has a fairly similar list but they just have Holy Grail by Jay on it.

Point is....Jay aint getting MORE play than Kendrick.

Admittedly, as a NY cat, who grew up where hip hop was birthed, I find this list disturbing. U have Supreme Radio in Italy playing better music (Tony Touch, T.I., Killah Priest, Rapsody, etc.)

Well I stand corrected. :ld:

But if that's how we define the KONY, give Drake the crown.

Stuff like that list is not controlled by the artists in NY. In this internet era where regionalism is less relevant than it used to be, the power is in the hands of a dude like Ebro and other program directors, not the artists so when dudes say 'NY needs to step it's game up in the wake of this Kendrick situation' who are they talking to? Certainly not Action Bronson, Joey Badass or the Flatbush Zombies because they can't change the corporatism of New York radio. Sad.

NY all day..Da Stead & BK..
tried to give Kendrick album another spin the other day....I just can't get into that shyt
shyt is a nice album but I feel alotta nikkas forced themselves on it cause Kendrick as a whole is an acquired taste kind of artist..and that is an acquired taste kind of album..I know this because when I used to try to put nikkas on to Kendrick nikkas used to make fun of his voice n shyt or they wasnt really feelin all the vocal inflections n shyt...fast forward...now everybody fukkin wit Kendrick...he's the best this and the best that...even the people that was shyttin on him..now that he's popular...its a different story...I just find this whole shyt funny..like I said..I knew the disrespect was gonna start pouring in once nikkas gave Kendrick the pass to shyt on the city..cause alotta nikkas been waiting for somethin like this to happen for a minute,,it's all funny to me..and Kendrick is sitting back and enjoying it..he ain't say shyt to defend his words..none of that..and I'm not knockin him..but all this Kendrick is tryna save hip hop talk needs to stop...Kendrick don't give a fukk about saving hip hop...Kendrick gives a fukk about Kendrick...period..

TI is already treading on thin ice and is a easy target. He needs to focus on getting a deal and building a crew because his career is on fumes.

His last album went gold and he on fumes?

:stopitslime:


Snoop got a 100k gangstas on deck for anyone that disagrees with Kendrick being KONY :birdman:

Payola breh. This is exactly why I haven't listened to the radio in years. They all play the same shyt over & over again.
