thats true but musically all of his songs since astroworld were flops that went #1 only from hype and marketing schemes then dropped of the charts within weeks. I'm gonna wait to see how his new album sounds to get the consensus

s*** is batshit f***in insane

I’ve heard that song yea
Drake is just my avi my name is literally a line from a Ye verse lol

Kendrick doesn't have the Gen Z appeal like Drake and Cole do lmao

Baby Keem filled the Kendrick-related gap for me so I'm good

People swear their bubble the whole story and the monolith lol

If you haven't done your due diligence and listened to the artists you're arguing about you already lost

tbf tpab set the bar astronomically high

“Critics” and not his body of work lol aiight bro

ERR
Just wrong bro. Cole is lucky they let up off that f*** J Cole s***

all it takes is one fortnite session

Wow this thread still going?
(Fuck the clippers btw)

I know multiple folks throughout that area throughout the last decade. You saying they’re playing Kendrick over Future just cause they’re on the west coast is an outright lie with zero basis (hence you not having any receipts)

Real niggas know that yg got more play on the streets than Kendrick, Future has always been loved anywhere in the country since Commas. You sound like an ignorant fool making it sound like his popularity is regional, which goes back to my overall point of Kendrick’s popularity being overhyped by folks who worship the opinion of critics and Future’s popularity being demeaned for the same reason

A lot of users don't even see the daylight most days its just their own opinions projected onto others

Niggas literally can’t think for themselves
Tired of arguing with children

You keep mentioning his body of work. What as a rapper stands out? His storytelling? His topics? His wordplay? Cause y’all keep saying his discography is just that much better with no follow up

I lived in Bayarea and visit LA mutiple times lol dont play with me.

West coast especially first half of 2010s is not f***ing with pure trap rappers.

No one said anything about YG, we talking Future my guy.

West coast always holds its own, & kendrick was def that nigga during gkmc and became that nigga again with damn.

Trap was not poppin outside the major hits.

You equating Future to black people number 1 cross the board is def false.

yeah DAMN. being a normal rap album was passable because no one expected him to drop that soon after TPAB, but after four years people expect nothing less than some insane experimental high concept s*** and i dunno if he even wants to do that kind of stuff anymore. i wonder if that's partially what's causing him to take so long.

ite im out

Again, sorry. But we not like east coast.

Lollipop

Just coming in to say I agree with OP
