I'm a fan of both but
at Kendrick's best Andre 3000 impersonation being better than Drake's lyrical displays on tracks like UGK, Lord Knows and The RideI'll start by saying I hate Drake with a passion so I might come off biased. Honestly Kendrick is the better artist when it comes to raw talent and displaying authenticity. Drake only makes catchy hit records. He'll get more props from the pop crowd. I do think underneath all the struggle harmonizing and forced punchlines that he can rap. His RFI and comeback season days can't hold a candle to The Heart off OD alone. Kendrick is more versatile lyrically and metaphorically. Shyt he killed him on thank me later. Kendrick had the best verse on that album lmao. That control verse still got him in his feelings. Cant wait til the hold me close era fades away.
U gotta be trollin. Don't tell me u actually believe those words brehat Kendrick's best Andre 3000 impersonation being better than Drake's lyrical displays on tracks like UGK, Lord Knows and The Ride
at can't hold a candle to The Heart. Drake's wordplay on RFI and Comeback Season shyts on most rappers.
Drake and Kendrick are two completely different types of lyricists. Drake is a punchline rapper, Drake is witty, introspective and bragaddacious. Kendrick is a storyteller, a picture painted more about concepts.
Kendrick's verse was REALLY that impressive to you my nikka REALLY?U gotta be trollin. Don't tell me u actually believe those words breh
Look at this Jazz hands ass nikkaPerform Spirit Fingers brehs
It was better than a lot of these new eclectic different ass n1ggas thats out right now. So yes it was.Kendrick's verse was REALLY that impressive to you my nikka REALLY?

Kendrick ain't Nas breh, this isn't Nas vs. Jay-Z either I see the similarities stylistically but the roots just aren't as deep, it's nowhere near as personal and the tension just isn't the same. Besides like I said what can Kendrick say that Drake hasn't already put out in his music or that we don't already know? Like I said Drake gave Kendrick a stimulus package, Drake put Kendrick on the undercard of a highly successful tour, Drake put Kendrick on the interlude of a multiplatinum record. Drake is one of those guys that helped Kendrick.You could say the same for Jay Z vs Nas
Ether>>>Takeover though. Like someone already said, Kendrick has infinitely more ammo in a rap beef.
Kendrick, to me, has already shown the aggression needed to lyrically destroy someone on Control, which I just haven't seen from Drake.
Give me an example of Drake displaying that type of anger and I'll change my opinion, but at the moment, Kendrick beats Drake in a rap beef.
Besides, Kendrick has a mainstream presence problem right now as a result of TPAB which would quickly be solved by a rap beef with Drake. It'd probably keep him afloat all the way to his next album release in 2-3 years. Kdot has a lot more to benefit from a beef than Drake, if I were him I'd chill.

Check the Drake disses I posted earlier, Drake has diss records out. Control wasn't shyt breh completely blown out of proportion just a lot of name dropping, all K.Dot was saying step it up guys I'm going for that top spot.
