They're trying to make Kendrick Pac, and it's not working

[noumena]

here comes the kendrick hate bandwagon

It ain't even hate, breh. It's truth.

I enjoy some of Kendrick's music, The Heart pt 2 is a great hip-hop song, one of my favorites from him. GKMC was a great album. It's just Kendrick's marketing team is failing him. I don't see him as a revolutionary, I don't see him as better than he really is. TPAB was a decent album, with very little replay value. This new one is just TPAB throwaways to me. It's a mess, just like Kanye's.

If they let Kendrick be himself instead of try to pigeonhole him into this martyr role, we might have got some meaningful music. All of this is just too forced.

to be fair to Kendrick...Pac did speak to him...he's the chosen one with sneakers that are uniting rival gangs.

".....Pac.....Pac?!"

imagine the reaction if a certain singing rapper did that sort of thing with a certain dead R&B songstress ?

Online c00ns and c@cs detracting while real black people inspired and marching to King Kendrick

Kendrick and Pac are very different. OP just a hater.

"government killed 2pac" conspiracies in 2016 brehs

Jump to conclusions, brehs. What I meant was, whether he got killed by the govt or not (they got MLK killed, that's a fact), he was affecting positive change so someone had to off him. People who preach real love don't last too long, whether it was a gang member, or someone else

Be real. If you don't like Kendrick to the point that you hate on him it's because God blessed you with flabby n sick ears

 

[Taadow]

There's some truth to this.

Boring rapper with no charisma

i dont like something just because white media told me its good. i form my own opinions amd tpab has zero replay value. overproduced, pseudo deep piece of garbage.

Niqqa nobody cares if you like it Even the greatest albums of all time don't please everybody. Go listen to what you like. We enjoying the music

 

[noumena]

You act like he wasn't doing a lot of jazz shyt on Section .80, personally I like that style from him a lot more than most of the shyt that he did on GKMC

Sorry all I remember from Section 80 was trash hooks

I said the style wasn't new to him, I didn't enjoy GKMC outside of a few songs

Kendrick Lamar is today's generation of Ice Cube when he dropped Death Certificate

While "jazz influence" might not be new to him, there wasn't this level of free jazz bullshyt in his old stuff, that's a fact.

There isn't a song in his catalog like "For Free?" before that album.

Right! Pac was threatening to the cacstablishment. He encouraged people to study, to educate, to be leaders, to fight for what was right, to never let the world get you down, to be proud of who you are, you know SUBSTANCE. It was part of why he's not alive today, he was too threatening in terms of affecting positive change to the black community AND the world.

Dude no he fukking wasn't.

His family was.
