Show goes on was def a hit. That and superstar. Which is my exact point. Kick and Push was a cult hit. Just like PSA by Jay Z. But in terms of mainstream potential. No one is mentioning PSA as the word that put hov onthe map.

Eh, Lupe has punches, but he doesn't really have the killer instinct which beef requires. I doubt Kendrick does either tbh. Pusha T went at Drake's throat. 50 Cent turned people's lives upside down. This would be tame by comparison.

ya itd be more of a battle of rapping/lyrics, not really a diss battle. could still be fun but not going to hurt anybody's rep or anything

This would be one hell of a boring ass beef

💀

Love Lupe

Love Kendrick

Not tryna hear them niggas go bar for bar in 2020

S*** bouta sound like the Great Debaters

he been training for this

With all that’s going on in the world why would Kendrick or Lupe beef with each other?

exactly, it's not even a real shot. what rapper (esp. an underrated legend like lu) is not gonna pick themselves in a legit debate about lyricism? it's not that deep

This fire

Imagine working on a classic album clueless of the outside world and Punch interrupts your session and says “yo Kenny I need you to come record a Lupe diss track real quick”

More of this, which isn't a bad thing.

As a Lupe stan I agree. It was big, but not a hit.

LMAOOOO

You think Kick Push was just a skateboard song?

It was for rap fans. You guys forget rap was not the dominant pop genre until the 2010s.

I mean to the general public it was a skateboard song. I know the "deeper" meaning behind it

Got ya. I was going to say thats why a lot of people like Kick Push. But that aside I feel like Kick Push is only a song the casual side of his base gravitates towards. I feel like the more die hards all rally behind Mural and for good reason

he's got some work 2 do...

Yeah he was really big. I witnessed his come up from nothing to his peak in popularity. SZA has very clearly already surpassed that, and that happened once she broke into the mainstream as a Pop/R&B act.

No, it's about a kid who gets molested and grows up to become a s***addict with a fetish for doing it in public spaces. He meets a nympho and eventually graduates into group sex.
