This is precisely why Kendrick will be considered a joke 10 years from now

[Inspect Her Deck]

here's the problem: I respond to this bullshyt, and you'll deflect into more about Common instead of getting to the actual topic at hand.

I let it slide, and it's a missed education opportunity.

First of all, Common's not in the GOAT convo. Knowing you, you probably picked him because you thought it was an easy target to let your struggle point slide. Common's dope as fukk, and reached dope heights, but he's just outside that GOAT convo.

With that said, "Resurrection" (that's the album) is great. LWFC a little less so but still great.

In a way, that's a perfect example. Common from Resurrection - LWFC was consistently dope. Not much earth-shattering but dope nonetheless. Certainly better than anything Kendrick's ever recorded. Still not in the GOAT convo.

Kendrick would be lucky to be considered better than Talib Kweli when the dust settles.

I'm not deflecting.

Common is absolutely in the GOAT convo and that's because he's released classics even though none are in that top tier ala Ready to Die/Illmatic yada yada.

His CONSISTENCY is what has rewarded him, where in his whole career he's released only two bad albums and those were Universal Mind Control and Nobody's Smiling. Everything else ranges from good to classic.

Kendrick's GKMC and TPAB are on that level or thereabouts whether you wanna admit it or not. I confessed that they weren't Supreme Clientele level or Cuban Linx or whatever but what's better? One Supreme Clientele and then a bunch of Nastradamus'? Or albums GKMC level consistently throughout one's career?

If Kendrick doesn't leave the rap game with at least one acknowledged classic I'll eat my left foot. Chances are he'll have 2 or more. That doesn't put you in the GOAT convo idk what does...

and bro you talking about Kendrick like ASAP Rocky isn't the worst thing to emerge. You clearly have an agenda.

I understand why there is an accolode conversation

I dont take it serious tho

But im an 80s baby, a hip hop head since 1992 so it is what it is

I chop it up with young homies all the time and talk hip hop

They love talking that "of all time"..i shut em down when it gets to that

Enjoy ur drakes and kendricks but no all time talk until its been 15 years

Kanye just NOW became eligible to be discussed with respect to his standing all time...for me

I agree with you but I wouldn't rule him OUT either.

It's not like ASAP Rocky who disqualified himself as soon as he released his first song i.e. trash.

As I said, discussion for Kendrick is premature, but not out of the question.

 

[smokeurobinson]

another rambling, off-topic post. Goddamnit breh!

@stomachlines this nikka's killing me

This deflection thing u do is transparent. Where's the rambling? You claimed psychic powers in your thread title and original post.

This i can agree with

Its like a player coming out the gate droppin 20 plus points, playing great d, leading his team to success etc

As opposed to a player coming out the gate...putting up solid double digit scoring...couple assists a game...occasional flashy play

One of those two you can clearly say the kids got potential

and to bring it to real GOAT contenders

Common is that career 22 ppg scorer and maybe plays the best defensive match-up every night

Ice Cube won MVP 3 years in a row, had like 7-8 insane prime years averaging 34 and 14 rebounds but then had an injury and post-prime averaged like 15 and 7

Common's released classic songs, obviously. GOAT albums? That's more debatable.

Kendrick doesn't have classic songs nor classic albums.

Now let's back to Kendrick and his accolades. Instead of rambling about someone else. It's a common ploy y'all do when it comes to Kendrick. Ramble about everyone else but Kendrick, the topic of convo.

what's better is one Supreme Clientele, obviously Who the fukk wants to hear consistent mediocrity? One brilliant album can change the course of an entire genre. We live for those moments. We don't live for "consistent" releases.

Anyrhing after bow down was 10 and 5...last few years hes puttin up 6 pts off the bench

Bow down was the last time he scored 20 plus...but the last few years prior to that his fg percentage went down

Lol love these comparions

Kendrick doesn't have classic anything when he's only been in the game like 6+ years. So that's why I said the convo is premature. But some of his songs will go down as classic. Alright for one. Poetic Justice probably. A host of songs I could name. Classic albums will be determined down the line but I guarantee at lest one.

It isn't consistent mediocrity. You getting it wrong off the jump. This is very high quality stuff he's releasing, in ANY era. Maybe exaggerated slightly given the level of competition so it is slightly glorified but still...

 

[Flywin Lannister]

Assuming this rant of yours is true it doesnt mean he will be considered a joke

I watched with incredulity as jay z went from no name to alleged GOAT in the last 20 years off forced accolades

U still cant convince dude si anything more than a b tier rap artist but an entire generation has drunk the kool aid

Same will happen to kendrick

No it's not. Stop lying to yourself. Ghetto Millionaire shyts on Kendrick's discography, and that's not GOAT contender.

You cannot be in GOAT conversation if you haven't released anything GOAT. Period. You can ramble around the topic but that's the truth that hurts y'all. I've asked you before if GKMC or TPAB are Ghostface/Scarface quality and you said no/deflected. if you're not blasting GKMC as much as you do Liquid Swords and marveling at it, then it's not in that bracket.

Thanks

Common is in the GOAT conversation without releasing a GOAT contending project.
