During the Control period I remember thinking nobody could beat Drake because he's as popular as he is. Thought if they were to beef, Kendrick would have the "better" diss tracks, but most people would still say Drake won

Never could have predicted Pusha T would beat tf out of Drake and then Kendrick would rinse him even more a few years later

First 3 songs on sxn80 will have u feeling like its his best but overall nah

If the top 3 doesn't include these 3

Real

worst side character to come from the whole beef

i realized not long ago that big steppers is unfortunately a pretty good album

Ranking

Section 80
Tpab
GKMC
Mr Morale
DAMN
Untitled
Black Panther Soundtrack

Jokes aside no makeup so fire, doesn’t deserve the hate it gets at all. Sets up Keishas song quite well

Don't piss me off

Yeah it's a personal fave

Some of the stuff on S80 didn't age that well to me

I'm cool with pretty much any ranking as long as TPAB is top 2 and the only one that I would accept being better is GKMC.

But even then I'd still argue that depending on if I was a few beers in

In 2013 that was damn near true but Kendrick was coming off of GKMC so that woulda been a hell of a battle even back then

Plus Drake gained so much hip hop respect with how well he handled the Meek beef, i wonder how Drake woulda favored in the Kendrick beef back then without the “he’s battle tested” narrative

But it’s Kendrick

He’s never dropped an album that made me go “Idk man…”

Every single one has its place and has been carefully curated.

He could end up with one of the if not the best discograph in hip-hop when it’s all said and done.

not like literal hosting like a comedy show, but you don’t remember bruh had like a 3 years stretch from like 2014-2017 where he was doing hella comedy? I think that was the last “authentic” era of Drake

Niggas might not like this but bro already has it lol especially if we talking solo

Yeah he tried to make Donald Sterling jokes, was on SNL and s*** I remember

Real music. Absolutely timeless stuff

Nigga hosted the espys for like 3 years straight. It’s why the gangsta persona just KILLS me man

Even Overly Dedicated is good man lol

Classic. Top 1. End of discussion

When's the last time yall played Love or God or Loyalty man

It is time to stop the cap

I disagree. Since Family Ties, I genuinely think he’s rapping better than he has in his entire career. In my view, though, MMATBS felt like it was made for Kendrick, not necessarily the fans. It had flashes of brilliance (United in Grief, Worldwide Steppers, Father Time, that one song where he said he was molested) but also a lot of music that seemed more cathartic than anything. I think Kendrick had a lot weighing on him when he made the album but he now seems in a better place mentally, and I think he could tell a story like GKMC or just make an album full of hits like DAMN. I have high hopes that his magnum opus is yet to come.

I be wanting to do my ranking of Kendrick's discography but after putting TPAB at 1 it's hard to choose between GKMC and DAMN as #2

I’m listening to LOVE. rn on my mama

Love that song
