Go back to Twitter first

i say no. they're equal. mac was a goat level spitter. never forget

Obviously. His rapping is far more agile and virtuosic. Mac is dope but not on that level, not even close, no.

who asks this?

best tiny desk performance you are on crack

Kenny is at least top 20 OAT at this point

I absolutely love Mac with my whole heart, but he ain’t touching Kenny

Too many niggas on here are like YouTube comment trolls from ten years ago just for the f*** of it. S*** is annoying.

not the best

if we broke rap into 5 tiers and consider kendrick at his best tier 1, i think Mac would realistically fall somewhere around tier 3 at his best

With that being said, Mac is a better singer.

Both killed this

I don't remember hearing kendrick sing does he do that

I would say middle of Tier 2 just off Circles being his final album but I understand

It's objective Kendrick is on a superior level of writing, creating concepts, attitude, flows.
You based the thread on questioning if Kendrick is better than Mac as if Mac ever created something even close to GKMC or TPAB.
It's a stupid convo to have.
Mac didn't have the pen, the flow, the concepts, the attitude of a A Tier rapper.
Mac was objectively nice but trying to put him in comparison to Kendrick is clearly a way to troll and setting up Mac to being trashed.

On DAMN mostly yes, he sang a few hooks

mac never was able to lyrically break down complex topics like kendrick even though he got amazingly close. they are on par technically tho

his role as a multi instrumentalist does make him more talented overall

oh I never really listen to him

he had 3/4 of the things on your list, was just missing a bit more of the pen

I wouldn't say those three things were A tier but to each its own

Chill bro, it's not that deep. We love Mac.

That’s just cynical with no basis. It’s a discussion based site, a virtual town hall/social club hybrid. Too many people on this site aren’t trolls who get off on being stupid to annoy people, they’re people who actually read books about their passions in life as well as have healthy social lives. It’s time to cut the bullshit and have more mature discussions.

Should’ve worded it a little differently and you might have gotten better responses

Might as well have said “Is MF Doom a better rapper than Quasimoto” or “Is Ghostface a better rapper than RZA” why yes OP, the lyrically oriented artist is better than the musically inclined one when it comes to rapping
