What do Nasir & Kendrick have in common besides being two dope emcees?

They both take the similar laid back approach when it comes to the music. They never rush their albums and both have had similar albums in the way of subject matter. They fall in the several boxes, conscious, boom bap, mainstream story tellers. They both can do it all.

They have a rep for integrity in their craft. They do their own thing and not chasing trends. Grew their base from underground and street level. They're both now regarded on a higher plane. They both lead relatively quiet and private existences.

If we talkin bout the LIG non deluxe version. This is better. Being that the deluxe version of LIG is literally the only version I ever purchased or listened to. KD2 is around the same tier to me. I wouldn't be made if someone felt LIG is better and vice versa. I will say LIG has higher highs. KD2 is more consistent throughout.
