This mid CLB release just gave Kendrick the easy layup to win the year.
We’ll see. I think a lot of the Kendrick discourse going on right now is not only wack it’s disrespectful to him as an artist. The man released a statement that basically said “I’m not tuned into the world, I’ve lost friends/family members to death, and btw this is my last TDE album but I have something to say.” Nothing about it gave me the frat bro “dude Kendrick is gonna diss everybody and destroy their careers bro” reaction I’m seeing. Not just from white people…Joe Budden has been saying it more than anyone.

I think he’s gonna drop a deeply personal, reflective album and either fail to match Humble or simply not try. Either way point is while I’m sure he will go for something big enough to tour arenas again, its not gonna be DAMN 2.0 and its gonna instead be some dark depressing shyt.

He’s not competing with these dudes, he’s playing another game entirely.

Wait. "I HAD A RICHARD PRIOR/PRYOR TO THESE nikkaS, THATS THE JOKE" :mindblown:

holy shyt :wow:
That’s a Jay influenced line

Bueller had a Mueller, but I switched it for a Miele)
'Cause I'm richer, and prior to this shyt was movin' freebase

Shows the level of rapper between them

but still a dope flip from drake

It didn't come from Kendrick's statement, but from his feature on Keem's track. No subliminals, he made it loud and clear:

- Smoking on your top 5
- 2021 ain't taking no prisoner, who went platinum, I call that a visitor
- fukk that album, fukk that single, burn that harddrive, ain't nobody safe when I come killing everybody that's outside
- One daughter, but you're all my sons in this bytch

So while I agree with you that with the new album he's playing another game entirely, he is definitely coming for everybody's necks too.

Did you turn off Family Ties before Kendrick's verse or what?
