    what i'm meaning is that. Yall pull up and bash these young niggas lyrics (or lack of) all day and use it to put their art down my g.

    And that s*** ain't cool.

    Especially when you let lines like the ones in this thread slide. There's a room for overcomplex bars and there's a room for undercomplex bars in this genre.

    You can call me boomer all you want but the 90s there was something called middle ground. Scarface wasn't the most lyrical nigga in the booth. But a song like "Seen a Man Die" was probably the most vivid song I've heard in my life. It made you feel something.

    the same way listening to Kendrick talk about hebrew israelites makes you feel something. The same way listening to Playboi Carti's verse on Pissy Pamper made us all feel something (that was a fire verse, I don't care son)

    Kendrick fans hilarious. Mf could drop a song exactly like this tomorrow

    Kendrick would come on the mic as some dusty instrumental starts

    ***"aye. look..(alien voice"yeaa i already said i was gon f*** youuuuu upppp") aye...

    "i caress you in castor oil, My radar showing no signs of resentment, I face the curse of the earth of the birth and moon of the first verse of this worse burden. I had this lil B**** (voice crack trembles, you can hear him jump up in the booth from anger) named lupe on my radar screaming, yea i said his name u thought i wasnt gon say it haha.

    well instead i split the atoms with quick reaction my vintage action on splittin patty wagons with different magnum revolvers blastin!"


    (richard pryor sample plays, white audience listener at home starts to go nuts with hype and type online so fast his finger snap into pieces, trying so hard to convince you it made sense that veins begin bursting onto the dorm room floor)

    i fw Kendrick but i cant breathe rn

    Kendrick really finessed the whole industry (mostly those pretentious braindead 'music critics/journalists' who hyped it up) into thinking he spat a hot verse because he namedroped contemporary rappers in his verse.

    Looking at those bars now, they are nonsensical, pathetic, and atrocious.

    I’m confused why you’re explaining this to me cus i feel the same way you do. I’m not bashing anyone, i think Kendrick deserves a little more respect and nuance with bars like the ones in this thread especially cus a half dozen weird lines on features and non album songs compared to the hundreds of amazing and provoking lines al over his discography.

    this is him tryna say
    he's the greatest of all time in a poetical sense

    the same theory is revealed on DNA tbh. verse 2
    "prolly snitched inside your DNA"
    (whether this was good or bad)

    he basically said you're no match for me with this rap s***
    no matter how much wealth you've accumulated reference by the G5's and five grand.

    your grandad being the pilot of said G5 is the fact that you're piloting because of fame.

    you're grandad also had to have s***with a woman in order to make you.

    (your grandad can't even function right tho and so he's bumpin pac to give him some confidence while popping pills.)

    and since you were a spermcell your parachute since being formed by your grandad & dad was a latex condom.

    your grandad dreaded his pubic hair too

    How many rappers are political and called goats? I could name a bunch of "political" artist who nobody cares about. If that's the only thing that elevated him to that status and not his flawless discography then surely the bar isn't that high!

    he's saying that you're better off killing yourself then trying to compete with him. the whole "tryna skydive..." s*** is an extended metaphor for an exercise in futility that will definitely end with you dying like an idiot
    everything else posted in this thread is straight nonsense though

    What soundcloud rappers have GKMC and TPAB in their discography back to back though? Kendrick deserves more respect cus of the work he’s made. It’s like saying why don’t we give Ghostface the same respect we give Guapdad 4000. Cus he doesn’t have Fishscale or Ironman or Supreme Clientele. Soundcloud rap has its own merits and it’s own amazing music but it’s useless to compare them like that
