I used to record music when i was like 13 with some friends and we’d all help eachother with lines or how to finish verses. It such a natural process but everything has to he written by 1 artist according to ktt

real s***. thats what makes the magic, its organic.

this is another video topic that im gonna go deeper into soon

was DFMB really written by Kendrick

There's like 5 confirmed tracks with actual snippets of, the rest is up in the air

Most likely yeah

The melodic blue was my favorite album of 2021, I like the kid and initially I was reactionary to this nepo thing but if the drake and party tandem worked and made them money, and a lot of other artists using writers made them money, why shouldn't it work for them. And he's working with family, I can't picture a better legacy for kendrick and keem inspired his most zany flows so it's a win win , great vid

I’m grateful to ManMan he opened up doors

A bunk on the tour bus to come and compose

And ngl, it's a wild low-key flex for kendrick that he wrote die for my b****, that era was so raw for keem, it felt like something new, wish he kept Cardo around tho

I loved the video, only thing tho is I doubt he sent unsolicited beats to TDE. Probably sent beats after the green light. Talent wise it doesn’t take away anything, Hours in silence was produced by the son of the president of OVO and it ended up being one of, if not the best song on the album

Drake calling die for my b**** aoty is hilarious now lmao

Those two definitely respect each other irregardless of the tension between them

I actually think the exact opposite. He's so trash.

Does anyone really say this? I think it’s just if u want to claim ur the best rapper or sum s*** that’s when it matters and should be looked at

The best rappers had people with them in the studio getting feedback and lines here and there. Music isnt something you do on your own

Ahh so this is why he's famous

definitely. yea that part of the story never fully made sense

lmfao i didnt even think of that ngl

I agree, writing is hard and doing that on your own for albums deemed classics means you can't just ignored niggas sharing raps, it's a hard truth But it's true, I'm certain keem knows he'll never get that respect and he doesn't like he wants it

He definitely still around, probably just too busy being a legend

Great video, its good to see actually informative unique topics and takes on the youtube space of hip hop discussion, I really like how you highlighted the way its always existed,good editing and i agree with it. It's cool u had the anecdote of your friend cuz it shows keem wasnt knee deep in the industry by damn. You showed a lot of stuff a lot of people arent aware of to show how much he was doing pre melodic blue. I doubt keem actually did get in just through the email theres probably more that happened. I agree with almost everything here.

Some constructive criticism to improve your video format (none of it is a big deal really) is I think you should try to get a dif type of lighting than the ring light in front of you, do it from the side or sumn, and try to EQ more bass into the sound of your mic. When you bring up examples, try to use 2 examples max. I would stop doing the zoom ins. I didnt really see the point in going into hypothesizing what the interviewer thought there.

truthfully not sure he needs it. i dont think too many younger rap fans care about stuff like that anymore

The difference in the examples listed in OP is as Kendrick’s cousin he can still talk about struggling before the fame while King Combs & Jaden are the children of celebrities and were born rich

People think because you have any association to the music industry that makes them a plant when those associations while probably being helpful doesn’t guarantee you any success as a creator.
