everything he's saying is spot on. i think the problem is that on the lyrical side, kendrick is probably a little underrated now (the same way the kendrick nuthuggers overrate the contextual meaning of every single line he utters, because of how gifted he is as a narrator).

kendrick can dumb it down and be more straight-ahead lyrically. he's done it. i dont think it will ever be his strongest skill. but it's there.

the same way lupe proved he could make accessible mainstream music with effective, impactful messages layered into the content... but decided he wanted to be hip hop's version of john nash instead.

Lupe just tryna gas Kendrick to really go in

Hopefully the shyt works
No Lupe hates the fact that Kendrick made it mainstream while still being a lyrical rapper and kind of stealing his spot as the concept album guy. If Drake wasn't beefing with Kendrick, Lupe would fukking hate him. Drake doesn't write his own music, he perpetually online, stands for nothing politically.

But since Lupe views Kendrick as an enemy for simply doing what he never could, he's aligned with Drake.

I mean Tom Brady is not playing a pick up game at your local community college breh.

It just ain't happening.


:pachaha:

Whole thread has very "Why won't Shaq just come to the park and hoop with us, so we can see who REALLY has it ?" energy.
Lupe doesn't even believe that shyt, I refuse to believe a rapper of Lupe's caliber thinks a rapper with a team of ghostwriters is better than anyone who writes their own shyt.


Lupe just doesn't like kendrick for whatever reason.
