this thing where niggas measure art based on whether or not it can be played at a function or outside gotta be one of the most annoying f***ing things ever
i don’t think this argument is used in any other genre (besides obv ones like pop & R&B, and even then i see it a lot less)
Kendrick has nothing on this:
A child is born with no state of mind
Blind to the ways of mankind
God is smiling on you, but he's frowning too
Because only God knows what you gon' do
You'll grow in the ghetto, living second rate
And your eyes will sing a song of deep hate
The places you play and where you stay
Looks like one great big alleyway
You'll admire all the number booktakers
Those pencil pushers and the big moneymakers
Driving big cars, spending twenties and tens
And you wanna grow up to be just like them
Smugglers, scramblers, burglars, gamblers
Pickpocket peddlers, even panhandlers
You say I'm cool, I'm no fool
But then you wind up dropping out of high school
Now you're unemployed, all null and void
Walking 'round like you're pretty boy Floyd
Turned stick-up kid, but look what you done did
God sent up for an eight year bid
Now your man who mistook in you, and make time
Spend the next two years as an undercover
Being used and abused to serve like hell
'Til one day you will find him dead in a cell
It was plain to see that your life was lost
'Cause you was cold and your body swung back and forth
But now yeah, I sing the sad, sad song
Of how you live so fast and die so young

I wish no one tried to rap like Eminem
Unfortunately hr does got a lot of clones but they're mostly yt found YT
The fact kendricj can rap snd be as arty as he can but still be as popular and selling as he is only adds ro his legend.... no one else couod be as lyrical deep and popular.... nas one of most influential ever but he never came close to Kenny nunbers
This the type of s*** Kendrick inspires
!https://youtu.be/TXo5Esu5OPMIf it wasn’t for Thug and Keef music would be hell right now
Why do you consider this type of music a bad thing? This song was nice.
Actually this is so nice that it's going on a playlist.
"He's not wrong" he literally is, specifically with Eminem and Kendrick themselves on the one hand because Kendrick said he was inspired by Eminem

said all this and still let Bam walk around freely knowing what he knew
