I believe Punch wrote basically all of TDE catalog pre Keem
This was confirmed in Respect Magazine, April 2013 which they covered... I had a copy at the time but wish I knew where it was now cant find the story online smh..
What makes them reference tracks? Multiple artists can record the same song.
You listen to them they feel like references tracks tho, also there’s no demos of Jay rock or keem with kendrick songs (that we know of)
Why would he do this ? Just has a lot of left over songs he’ll never use ?
I assume since Kendrick wrote for other artists in TDE too, that he just likes to make music and writing for other artists give him a chance to create without being constricted by the type of music Kendrick is expected to make. Probably makes some good money from it too.
Keem is to Kendrick like what PND is to Drake
When will yall accept that your favorite rappers have writers?
Find me the Keem references for Kendrick y’all imagine and we will reopen that conversation.
I can actually point you to 5-10 Kendrick references for Keem right now. You couldnt do the same for Keem.
Yet there’s never been a case where anyone doing a kendrick reference track has leaked, only the other way around
This
But Kendrick didn't always sound like how he did on DAMN. How did he just start sounding like a SoundCloud rapper like on Humble, God, and Element after coming from TPAB ?
Because Kendrick is talented enough to switch from the sound of TPAB to DAMN. He never makes the same album twice.
The reason DFMB might have similarities to DAMN is because Kendrick wrote a bunch of songs on that mixtape. References to point to and everything.
Why are you @ ing me like you are correcting anything I'm saying lol
Yes, Oz wrote the chorus for a song that is mostly a chorus and Drake karaoke'd and released it
moreso couldnt reply to both comments at once so i just picked the latest one and @ed you. more so a comment to the entire thread but also since you brought it up.
no shade
Why did DAMN sound so much like Keem ? No other Kendrick project sounds like DAMN but Die For My B**** sounds similar to DAMN
It literally doesnt

I just find it hard to believe that Kendrick can write songs like Honest, Apologize, or Rockstar P

I don't think TDE would let reference tracks for Kendrick just "Leak" like that.

That’s an assumption
Kendrick not on TDE anymore why would they care hypothetically.

He actually did a reference for Rockstar P, same leaker who leaked the other Kendrick references for Keem confirmed this.



People try discredit him so bad even tho kendirck the only one industry ghosted written all the hit for your favorite artist. He don’t need writer, he is the writer.

Facts
No way people actually think that Keem writes for Kendrick, I thought that s*** was a running joke
Facts

It back in KTT1 when baby keem sound cloud got posted, and peoples were speculating that Baby keem ghost written for Kendrick after post damn since he sound a lot like him. But we later find out that Kendrick is ghost written for his mixtape and his albums.

That’s the bottom line here.
Kendrick don’t have ghostwriters.
He actually did a reference for Rockstar P, same leaker who leaked the other Kendrick references for Keem confirmed this.
Ok I need that
That’s an assumption
Kendrick not on TDE anymore why would they care hypothetically.
I'm sure they probably left on good terms and wouldn't want to be on sum f*** s***

Are you choosing to be ignorant? Artists get the same song from writers all the time. Writers could write a song and send it to multiple artists. Similar to when an artist sends a song to multiple artists for a feature verse but only using one of them or none at all.
