well thats what happens when you approach fanbases that are rabid. you encounter people who are so ingrained in their own personal connection and interpretations of an artist that they reject alternate opinions, especially if they're skewed in the direct opposite position.

im an admitted kendrick stan of the highest caliber because his music resonates with me, but that shouldn't mean he's above critique if you have valid opinions about his music. he's not bulletproof. but i gotta say, a hype thread for a well liked artist's new album the night of it's release isn't exactly the best avenue to get well balanced and reasoned discussion, as unfair as it may be. time is usually the best ally of split discussion.

i can't hate on you not feelin his stuff...we all like different approaches to artforms we are fans of. i'm glad you're not deterred from people shutting you down though

woah woah woah

I like Kendrick. I like this album.I think he is the 3rd best rapper......but there are weaknesses I see with his recent output. I'm not in here Drake stanning or saying Kendrick's music puts me to sleep lol.

fair enough, but like i said, stans off the heels of a new release they're feelin will interpret any critique as an attack if you dont couch it inside of a bunch of praise on top of that

He is a song writer rapper. Pac and Kanye actually have several songs tho that people know word for word. Like several Kendrick not so much...
They use less syllables per bar.

Big pimpin was huge but most people know UGK verse more then Jay z

Because it's Simple like the average listener
