Dom Kennedy let's talk about the Breh

[Yakno1]

With the right push, I could see Dom mainstream. He's not the best emcee but his style works with his west coast music. He has a good production(The Futuristics) He does spit a lot of real life bars and I think that's a strong reason why he stands out. I'll post the three strongest cuts below first imo - but ideally if you click on any of the links below, you are either going to feel the music or not

He's not a mainstream type of dude but he is a dope artist overall. The Yellow Album was my shyt

Dom will always win because of his ability to be relatable. He knows how to make songs with melodies and moods.

He doesn't need the mainstream and I don't think he's looking for that look.

He's got his own lane.

 

[Hood Critic]

Like a good deal of Dom's music but his lack of charisma is why he should stay an independent artist. It's much more beneficial for him that way.

That way he can make music on his terms and for his core. So if someone discovers his music and becomes a fan, cool...instead of getting with a major and being forced to make broader music to attract new fans.

Wiz is a perfect example of this.

what you mean by that, laid back style?

 

[Monoblock]

Why is it so important for you cats to see a nikka on TV or "blow up"? I just dont get this mode of thinking in this day and age. Lets just play the game and act like he did blow up as soon as he did a collabo with Drake or somebody on the hook nikkas be ready to throw flags on the play and say he changing. Cats would be foaming at the mouth to make flabby and sick topics. nikkas was saying the same shyt about Wiz after he dropped Kush and OJ. nikkas got they wish and he went ultra retarded and got lame fast. Dom is exactly where he needs to be. He already said he doesnt need the music industry to get paid and music aint even his main focus. If it aint broke dont try to add all this bullshyt to the music. Let him make it on his own terms thats when the music always sounds the best.

I've been wanting dom to blow up for years, but I agree I think he fits in his own lane and I don't really see him getting to that mainstream level
Plus there's too much new competition just from the west coast from artists like yg and problem

I'll just be happy if he continues with the strong releases

Yellow Album>>>>>>Get Home Safely but GHS is REALLY starting to grow on me

 

[Hood Critic]

Yes, it's the same thing with Spitta...they're playing their part just fine. If they were forced to do something else, it wouldn't turn out right.

I thought the same, but GHS is a really really good album. I think he fukked up realesing it in Oct instead of May/June
