Kendrick is one of one. He's one of those rarities that comes once every blue moon, like an Andre 3000 for example.

The Kendrick Lamar's of the world and the Andre 3000's of the world are more outliers than the norm.

He's Michael Jordan playing baseball

Cant forget meek and sean

Detroit rappers and baby/Dirk made them level up recently

No that’s a dumb post he’s been very successful within rnb

Not on the same tier never have been they’ve always kinda hovered around the top 3 convo

I mention drake because I truly feel like he still has something to prove and it’s obvious he looks at Kendrick as a peer/competitor Cole as well but not at the level as drake o feel like drake hasn’t put out that body of work that really sets him ahead like Kendrick or showed an example of concise craftsmanship technically yea he’s top 2 but it’s more like
1.Kendrick
HUGE GAP
2drake

NWTS

that’s kinda what makes drake, drake my guy. since 09. You calling it mid is just your opinion but the fact he do a bbking freestyle then hit the clubs with a nice for what is his forte lol

That's subjective. Point is they all here a decade later and still have energy unlike their peers

Ngl I feel like Meeks always drops around the same time as Kendrick and gets overshadowed or some s*** lol
Like he doesn’t get completely wiped out the convo but I hear people talk more about singles than complete albums with dude

F***ing great album but just not THAT one if that makes sense

French

I think CLB will be his best work or at least in the conversation

we'll see

When we gonna be honest about this albums track sequencing be a f***ing mess or how he left some of his best songs off this album on some d***head s***

If this song where he's just having fun with his 20 year old cousin got yall in shambles imagine what else is coming

Let's hope so lol

NWTS is a super cohesive album

Aye I really hope so tbh because again just having only 1 guy in the mainstream currently showcasing artistry Kendrick does is a bit frustrating especially when you know drake can be Capable we already know he’s gonna sell but I’d be nice for him to have his full circle crown moment. Cole lowkey missed on that to me

What are some of those best songs that he left off that should've made it?

…..

that’s very true, sean just doesn’t get anyone with his albums tho like they never stick outside his debut and DSP. Championships for meek is a really great album he talks real on there

I fw Meek heavy, Sean is ok im just saying they’ve never been as popular as the big 3 thats not really subjective

Jodeci Freestyle would’ve been the perfect intro to NWTS easily. Soulful beat, Some of Drakes best and most confident rapping.

Tuscan Leather felt mad try hard

Burn that hard drive
