He lacks the proper production a lot of the time. Drogas Wave was interesting but half them beats were trash

C'mon not half

Majority of his albums had fine production outside of F&L2 and Lasers. Drogas Light had good production is just Lupe sounded little awkward over them

what's the tweet from TDE in response to?

F&L and the cool are classics after that Atlantic tried to force a 360 deal niggas trajectory was outta here but you rewriting history. No hits? Superstar and show goes on exist breh. And it ain’t no narrative about Kendrick it’s plain facts

Exactly. Lupe could literally have the greatest discography. Yes even now after lasers if he just made the music we want him to make.

But he is so genius that someone like him gets bored with doing the same s*** I understand why he would want to make a trap tape. Dude is a literally student of the game they wants to conquer every aspect of rap. Some places he will fail and some he will succeed.

But if Lupe decides to make the music that he knows he can easily make, he can easily no do that every year.

lupe should go for Punch not Kendrick. Dude needs to be shut asap, most annyoing motherfucker in the business

if we go by that logic, his only undeniable classic is GKMC

TPAB has heavy backlash from the public and DAMN has factually aged badly in that nobody really talks about DAMN like they do with GKMC an TPAB

with Lupe, pretty much every rap fan acknowledges F&L and The Cool as classics and the people who actually have checked out T&Y and Drogas Wave have nothing but great things to say about them

And I love Kendrick and Lupe.

If they do battle. Lupe would of course be lyrically and conceptually superior but Kendrick will probably have the better song and it will be a toss up.

Mainstream will say Kendrick won

Lyrically lovers will give it to Lupe.

That's why I said another thread that maybe he wants to take a break from the heavy s*** and wants to jack around making Trap music.

Overall though he got one of the most consistent Discogs in rap. People even forget about his tapes, leaked F&L, and his material prior to his debut.

Lasers do got some joints on there though

What if this is all just an elaborate setup to a Kendrick vs Lupe Verzuz battle

A Verzuz battle that Lupe would very easily win

Nah Drogas Wave had some of his best beats next to T&Y

I like the cool production mehn. Production doesn’t have to be perfect. I literally find every thing Lupe says to be interesting. So o don’t really need him to have perfect production.

Y’all need to stop counting Kendrick out. Same way niggas counted Drake out when he and Meek first battled his pen might go Ultra Instinct on someone like Lupe

There’s two different types of disses/battles

There’s battle rap.. in person, acapella.
Then there are just diss songs.
The best battle rap is going to be how well you can diss your opponent in an intricate, thought out way.
The best diss song is going to be the one that’s catchier.

I trust Kendrick to make a catchier song than Lupe based off of DAMN & his other hits.
A battle rap in person could go either way but that will probably not happen

See even his most f***ed over album got a classic song on it

Anybody counting Kendrick out doesn’t understand how battling works and they are also not giving him enough credit for being the artist that he is.

All Black Everything might be top 10 Lupe honestly.

And ion care what nobody says Out of My Head is a jam

You gotta have way too much pride to beef with someone for saying they’re “lyrically better” than you.

Kendrick is wiser than that.

What? That’s the only legit reason to battle in rap when someone says they’re better.

Nah see this that popularity contest s*** the same reason people say Drake ain’t lose to Push. Lupe would never entertain that “catchy diss” s*** and I doubt Kendrick would do that either. If they ever battled people that are truly invested in Hip-Hop are expecting bars.

People are talking about a beef. I don’t think you can pay Kendrick enough money to do a battle.

Hit Em Up wasn’t lyrically superior.
Story of Adidon wasn’t lyrically superior

Stop acting like all battles are created the same.

DNA just beat Mickey Factz in a battle
Frak just beat Diz.

Being better lyrically doesn’t help when your opponent is also great at doing what they do.

Yall they are not battling or doing any dissing or any of that s*** lol. Kendrick is smart enough to know that what Lupe said comes from a place of respect and a love of the game.

Punch is just a f***ing weirdo.
