Man I like Drake but y'all nikkas need to :camby:, Drake could never write something as lyrical as M.a.a.d. City or Ignorance Is Bliss.

Deadass M.a.a.d. City reminded me of the first time I heard Nas spit on NY State of Mind :wow:

:dead: at comparing Cole and Kendrick lyrically :mjlol:

Yeah, because rap is narrowly defined by what basement dwelling backpackers think? :duck:
:dead:



You have over 30000 posts and spend all day every day on here It would literally take me TEN YEARS to match your post count.


You probably havent left your basement in 3 weeks or showered in 2 weeks :russ:

Better to reign in Hell than serve in Heaven
let me tell you what kendrick is about.... dope production, with dr. dre overseeing it.... dope flow..... dope voice change box

now you might take that as a slight diss... but i'm not hating or looking down... i'm dead serious




you start off most of his tracks and it's a dope ass beat... so you already hooking into most music fans right there.. i mean it's 50% of the song

then he starts rapping and you hear HOW he flows on those beats.... you gotta admit he's damn great with his cadence and bounce on the beats... you don't even have to know what he's saying, you just know it sounds good

then instead of most fast rappers... just rapping fast.... he switches up the way he sounds, adds a lot of effects to both his voice and the beat.... adds in a lot of extra shyt to it all... which also sounds dope.. plus he already has a distinct voice but you never get tired of it, cause it sounds different every 1-2 minutes






there's a reason you don't hear him on tracks with just a straight up voice, no additives... there's a reason this thread is gone this long, and nobody has been posting quotables... if you asked why nikkas followed canibus back then, it'd be filled with them... if you asked them why they thought nas was so deep, they'd be filled with them... but kendrick's bars, when written down, aren't that mind blowing....

"Told nikkas when I was 16 that I'd write a 16
To put a nikka right on the big screen
In the paddy wagon with 16, should have been in the pen
But then my pen write with morphine
I heal nikkas, touch down with more fiends
I kill nikkas, audio crack, khakis to meal ticket
Cardio lap, was running for dear life but now I'm running the map"



i mean these are the bars that had the internet saying he MURDERED jay-z on it.... what the fukk is actually saying that's so lyrical or deep or "wooooooooooooo that was hot" morphine don't even heal people :snoop:

i heal nikkas, touch down with more fiends?? khakis to meal ticket?? cardio lap, now i'm running the map???



imagine jay saying this, in jay's voice, with jay's flow, on a ye beat.......... don't sound too interesting and super lyrical does it??


but add in a dre beat... a fast rapid flow where you think he saying more than he is... and some fades and echos and all the sudden its :whoo:











all that being said... nobody else is doing those things... so he does have his own lane... but nikkas acting like he's god's gift who is personally saving the rap game with his year 3000 flow and lyrics are doing a little too much hyping :manny:

He's significantly better than Drake and J. Cole but I'm not really a fan. Dude got a wishy-washy voice that I can't really get past.

Pretty good for mainstream but I personally would never bump/cop.

notice how nobody cares about kendrick anymore? nikka's buzz came and went, and whatever buzz he had was off an album that is highly overrated in retrospect.
