I know what you mean, but the average listener would have them mixed up.

Luckily this takes some sort of intellectual person to grasp and truly appreciate what this nigga is doing.. it's one thing to rap fast but it's another to do it like this..

His most recent album is called Requiem For A Dream btw if anyone cares..

He was flowing

A fundamentalist emcee with multis, bars, and flow not being hated on yet? Is KTT undergoing some kind of paradigm shift?

S*** is dope btw. The lyrics aren’t gibberish (which a lot of the Em clones do) and are conceptually dope. I love that meta-rap s***.

I just went back to Kendrick's old s*** to compare.. and I think you might be right.

Dude needs a "The City" moment.

Rappers nowadays have too much ego to let it happen though.

He can rap.

If he were white he'd have maybe 21 Million views on youtube alone and maybe 30k shares on Facebook of a video captioned: "Eminem's Cousin? Kid destroys mumble rap! xD"

cap

Ehh, Kendrick has always been impressive when it comes to assonance.. I never really understood the hype about this feature..

His best display of lyricism to me is Look Out For Detox or Cartoons & Cereal.. of course he be blacking out but he was hungry as f*** in that era..

Now if my dude KAAN can actually switch it up and rap over some bass heavy beats then he got it.. finna spin these albums..

Yep. About time that covert racist s*** gets called out. The whole “I hate rap but like Eminem” is so patently racist. Em himself hates those sentiments.

Cartoons and Cereal is peak Kendrick. His verse on Holy Ghost too >>>

It was the verse that made ppl see him. Same s*** Live at the BBQ did to Nas and Hardcore did to Redman.

I caught the holy ghost the first time I heard it tbh.

Beyond his technique he sounded hungry af, ready to take over the world. You couldn't hear it and not figure out that this man was the next big thing in hip hop.

Isnt this the guy Dre said he works with in the LL interview?
I think he's signed to Dem Jointz

Still havent listened to him yet

this only ever worked for Eminem, you can't name 10 white rappers that are anywhere near as big as Eminem AND as respected in the rap game, this whole narrative is f***ing garbage and needs to stop

Yep, glad someone else realizes that that's Kendrick's masterpiece.. some of the most impressive displays of lyricism ever recorded.. my nigga blacked tffffff out in the booth

Imagine watching that take place.. must have been beautiful to see..

That aint eminem thats Bootie Brown

All those other songs y'all mentioned are really great too.

^^^ Of course these performances can't be ignored.

Kendrick's come up was f***ing legendary, glad I got to witness it in my lifetime.

man what?
not even my logic thread got hate

You gotta walk into KTT2 with a suck my d*** attitude and you won't get bothered

That Logic song is fire though. Do you still listen to him??

I like this song, nasty, the young sinastra series and the Eminem joint.

I haven't gone beyond that though

Same tbh. I remember when Logic came out. Those YS tapes were fire.

This is what these lyrical miracle guys want to sound like

Hov lost
