    DJ Hed is an unreliable narrator lol

    He talks to Kendrick but I feel like he overemphasizes their relationship (kinda like Akademiks does with his relationship with Drake) lol. He's saying what he's supposed to say, if only so that that ends up being what Kendrick actually does.

    I don’t think we ever get rappers as great as Kendrick and Drake though, they are the MJ and Prince of the genre

    At best we get respectable follow ups like The Weeknd, Bruno Mars, etc.

    It's not just hed. Everyone around him keeps saying that this is "just the beginning" and that there's "so much more in store". We'll see tho

    Eh, that's what they're supposed to say. That's why they tried pushing the "West Coast is up" narrative that we know isn't true because only Kendrick is up. It's an entire region trying to ride on Kendrick's coattails because he's hotter than he's ever been.

    You think they'll ever go on any platform and suggest Kendrick will disappear? No. And maybe he won't but that's up to him, not any of them. Kendrick has always marched to the beat of his own drum. I don't see that changing now.

    I think you’re right because even if he wanted to it’s just way too inconsistent with who he’s always been

    But that's exactly why we shouldn't completely rule it out one way or the other. He's been defying our expectations for this long, especially with the year he's had. I'm not saying hed is 100% right but I'm saying not to rule it out either. Kendrick is unpredictable, after all

    Minus that, not to be that person but his recent momentum is all predicated on his beef with Drake. Kendrick isn't dumb for still riding the steam of the beef. He knows the power of the association with Drake, especially negatively and he's smartly used it to his advantage. He can't have yet another album era trying to use the momentum of dissing Drake to his own benefit. That'll be too obvious and he'll get called out on it.

    Contrary to what most people think, it's very difficult consistently dropping albums year after year after year and scoring mega hits on each of those albums. That's why Drake's run is so unique. I don't think Kendrick is trying to become the next Drake because that'll require him giving up what he's been known to be. I think this has all been a crusade to prove he can also do what Drake does if/when he wants to. The next move will be to lean into what he does best, which is the introspective/conscious s***.

    Fair enough. We'll see what ends up happening.

    Kendrick's next album will very likely be more introspective/thought-provoking than GNX. Everything he's done post GNX seems like it was geared towards him proving he could score hits whenever he wanted to and he's more than proved that with the GNX era. I doubt he doubles back again with another album doing the exact same thing because then he becomes the very thing he's accused Drake of being.

    DJ Hed is a West Coast nigga who is reveling in seeing his guy on top. Of course he doesn't want it to end so he's gonna say whatever

    My guess is Kendrick perhaps drops a GNX deluxe sometime within the next few months, finishes his tour and disappears for another 2-3 years.

    Kendrick dropping another commercial album does not make him what he accused Drake of being. wtf 😭
