On DAMN mostly yes, he sang a few hooks
he was like sing singing on those songs or like half singing
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
Mac was a poet, Kendrick was a preacher. Those are wildly different skills. There are very few rappers, especially that came out in the last 15 years, who had lyrics like Mac did.
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
Kendrick doesn't literally produce but I do believe he has a pretty good ear.
His thing is he doesn't just pick a beat and rap on it. He likes beat switches, background vocalists and live instrumentation, etc. And he mostly has tasteful selections in everything so it works.

This disrespectful for no reason
I should’ve known niggas who think the SATs are Call of Duty guns would want to look cool cause they’re too lazy to be smart.
Sir, I'm in grad school. I'm just on ktt for mental health stimulus.
Kendrick is a better rapper and only a moron would disagree.
Kendrick is more versatile, is a better storyteller, better rhyme schemes, inflections, flow, delivery, cadence, quotables, punchlines, content, and has more memorable verses. Please lock your thread peasant.

Kendrick is more of a poet than Mac tbh

Half singing half rapping stuff
Just listen to TPAB realize it’s levels to this rap s*** like this shouldn’t even be a question it’s pretty stupid
Kendrick is more of a poet than Mac tbh
yeah Mac was more of a sonic/vibe genius than a lyrical one

Nigga kdot is a poet as well tf? A far better poet them Mac no disrespectful to the dead of course
90% of any hip hop listener would obviously say kendrick is better. 100% of ktt would obviously say hes better
I would say middle of Tier 2 just off Circles being his final album but I understand
i was tempted to say tier 2 to be real, but i think that would be more of his artistry than his rapping if that makes sense.
like kendrick got a lot of songs where he get in his pen bag so heavy it’s like aight, you got it
mac can rap but his rapping alone never really left me amazed tbh
Kendrick is more of a poet than Mac tbh
And Mac is more of a producer of who raps thats what I was getting at

eh that’s not an empirical way to look at it
kendrick was matching macs poetry in GKMC and s80 while he was actually bringing forth new ideas on TPAB

You said I didn't know what the SAT is. You are the one who brought up education first. Don't be upset because your thread is stupid and I called you out on it in my first post.
niggas attacking op like we be on here really talking about s*** any other day lol what’s the problem
just watched mac miller tiny desk youtube live video, and that s*** was just wack. Dude looks like a d***gy half asleep, no charisma, no energy. He was just trash and i aint gotta say the opposite just cause he busted
nah that performance is fantastic and i am not massively into his music
