ti has slayed nikkaz, though.
completely, dominated nikkaz in battle.
when it comes to going against his content based contemporaries.
I don't see Kendrick dominating, any likely skilled contemporary of his skillwise, from his coast or in the culture, period.
if, Kendrick makes a diss,..it will be more pr, and mixing.
it won't be reflective of the technical domination, that ti exhibited, in battle.
along with actual content and the intangibles on a holy shyt level like TI.
plus, during that time...technically ti as wordsmith.
was easily top five when it came to the actual rhymes, from an advanced technical standard or rubrick.
ti, was more advanced than 98% of the industry then...
Kendrick is not that advanced and is just a commercial endorsed outdated skill version of aceyalone.
who leans upon to many bitten bone and canibus rhymes styles and delivery.
yet, offers none of the battle heavy rhymes that can serve someone.
now, granted...it could be some salt in the game with ti...........skillwise.
yet, and still...his skillset was so profound during that time...
the only person seeing him in his region skillwise as a technical marvel was his own artist, or underground hof artist, chamillionaire.
at that time,..crooked was not ramped up technical skill and cadence wise.
and in the east and Midwest...
only ju, Eminem, g rap, fab, cam, jr I can only list off the top of my head.
who could write like ti, or was a wordsmith on that level.
anyone who made westcoast rap, can say they can or have rapped as good as Kendrick.
it is no one in the south, west or east...except a smaller than one percent of legends and hof wordsmiths.
who can say they made rhymes as well as ti.
ti advanced technical skills with random non-culturized gangsta nikkaz.
Kendrick does not spit more than the standard two three syllables.
after ti, was spiting a standard of five to six syllables.
four at the very least...that elevated overall general fan perception of technical skills.
in a region where they usually gave not one fukk about a technical skill rhymewise.
art barr
14 years of stannery wasted for nothing.
this is too funny. i haven't seen a poster get THIS upset over their favorite rapper falling off in a long azz time. i guess the pain is even worse when your favorite rapper AND your favorite coast both fall off at the same time
