you can neva be top 5 if the streets aint neva rock wit you.

Pac
Jay
Nas
Biggie
Face
Rakim

i couldnt just say 5, but those 6 all had the streets rockin with them, among other things, AND all of them could be mentioned in a top 5 and nobody could make a serious argument against any of these choices..

Kendrick can never be top 5

hes write, son is great at crafting but he says alot of nothing sometimes. im a huge fan but hes like Joey Badass to me, nothing witty, comical or quotable really. Just bars...

like it's certain nikkas that i think if he battled he would lose too, and there are certain nikkas who would break him up on a track.

Song is corny and shows why Kendrick doesnt make the cut.
Story doesnt sound believable at all.
He tries to connect himself to pac "her favorite song is BRENDA'S GOT A BABY"
The story sounds so fugazi,unreal and corny
Lol Kendrick's most revered story is a tale of a seventeen yr old prostitute whom walks the ho stroll bumping Brenda's gotta baby,in 2011?
Corny and senseless

What's Kendrick's most well known revered story?

Keisha Story

So let me get this right.
You think Kendrick is a top story teller in hiphop,right?
Kendrick just dropped his 4th official commercial release,right?
Kendrick has been a top shelf rap artist since his first album,right?
And you're saying his most revered story is an infamous,obscure song from a mixtape?
So that's the top song. What's the runner ups?
What are some revered story telling tracks from the albums that followed?
