Man sitting up here struggling trying to name rappers but he said 20 are better than Kendrick. Canibus?:mjlol:How you say 20 are better but can’t easily name 20. I was waiting for him to say Redhead Kingpin or Kwame or some shyt :dead:Man really said Dave East lol. It took him so long to do that shyt. I ain’t no huge Kendrick guy like that but cmon bruh. Vlad was engaged because he knew he had a viral moment. Hilarious! Aries is stuck in the 90’s

Maybe not a top 50 mc, but definitely a top 50 songwriter/musician/artist

Can we stop quoting Aries Spears? He's a worthless c00n who hasn't accomplished shyt since Mad TV days.

It's like asking a random guy off the streets and making a video about it.

Officer vlad is definitely struggling with guests on his show if he keeps inviting this has been.

Kendrick hasn't done something that other rappers haven't done before. But when you rate Canibus, Dave East, etc. over a Kendrick? Boy you're talking out your ass.

He still sells out shows all over the country... ive seen him lots of times.

He's 100% wrong tho.. Kendrick entered the Top 10 this year, and surpassed Jay Z imo

Common Mos Def DMX don’t have the discography all amazing rappers but only have about 3 or less great projects

Mobb Deep Tribe Run DMC and Kast are groups

Snoop and Kanye West have had significant parts of their discographies written and Snoop only has one truly great album

The rest we can debate some I don’t see a world in which he can be over
Nas
Jay
Pac

Everyone else I can see the arguments for or against. We talking about somebody who has two bonafide classic albums that changed music and lead to some of artist best work by copying the formula of it and also puts in the work writing the songs and lyrical prowess.
Common absolutely has a better catalogue the Kendrick. Obviously, a big reason is because he started earlier. The ace Kendrick always has is GKMC. That album is better than alot of people's best album. But overall, I think Com is better than Kendrick

Whether he’s better or not is personal opinion, but I know many, many people who will listen to Dave East before Kendrick
I have to wonder where some of you live. This board really is the twilight zone. :dead:

I've never heard anyone utter Dave East name around my way. Online, he seems to be lusted after by women.

So what are we judging as an MC?

Metaphors, rhyme schemes, the ability to stay on subject, mic presence. I feel like he's a great storyteller and has an excellent grasp of music theory, but he's not really someone that I necessarily want to digest in a quick setting like those that I consider more mc centric. As an overall artist, I think he's amazing though.

I can respect your opinion and disagree I do think time is a big positive but I think Kendrick is a better Lyricist with better top end albums. I do think it’s amazing that Common can release albums 20 years into his career that are still great and give him a huge bump ahead of a lot of people.
