Feb 10How is he not? What does he not have besides twerking for tabloids
Feb 10He didn’t become a worldwide star until NLU
DAMN put him in Superstar status yes but his long hiatus after that hurt his popularity
Feb 10yes, next question
Feb 10Obviously
Feb 10Face of Hip Hop and the culture
Feb 10nah for sure not in that tier but he’s a cultural superstar and has had his moments as a tier 1 star but he’s not solidified in that tier
Feb 10Duh
OPFeb 10·1 replyfigarothe artists you listed are in completely different tiers, but kendrick is obviously a superstar. question is just how big of one
Then what do you call those artists then?
If they are Superstars and Kendrick not in that tier
Then that mean Kendrick ain't a Superstar then right?

ExpertYou are confusing popularity with stardom.
If all of the artists go on tour today from the list, Snoop and Wayne will have the hardest time selling tickets and their tickets will be the cheapest on the list.
Snoop's been churning out hits for 3 decades straight, Doggystyle is Diamond eligible, and he's extremely iconic on a global scale.
Not denying Kendrick has been way more consistent than Snoop but I think you're sleeping on Snoop's impact. Even his features with Dre are more iconic than many of Kendrick's solo hits.

beyonce is a superstar but she isn't on the same tier as MJ. kendrick is a superstar but he isn't on the same tier as Bey.

Shabazz999first non-superstar with multiple diamond eligible songs
Niggas just be saying s*** because they personally dont like him lmao
Feb 11OMEGADidn't want stan wars.
So let's compare him to the superstars of legends past
Feb 11OMEGAIs he in that
Kanye,Rihanna,Beyonce,Snoop Dogg, Lil Wayne, Jay-Z, Justin Timberlake, Brittney Spears, Taylor Swift, 50 Cent, Eminem, Michael Jackson tier to you?
A certified American and Global Superstar?
He got there in 2015 by having two classic mainstream successful albums back to back that didn’t sound anything like each other
Prime of Mustard’s run and all he coulda did GNX instead of TPAB ten years ago and probably still been fine critically and success wise lol. But he instantly went for that Ye Outkast etc tier and had the hits to match it

Because its 2025 nigga and someone 20 was barely out of elementary school when they both were way out of their prime
That doesnt take away their cumulative status for the people who saw 30% or more of their main runs lol
Feb 11He’s a Pulitzer Prize winner ffs. He has had praise by a former president
He’s just not your run of the mill superstar
