you’re proving my point
He’s a talented artist, no doubt. But aside from being heavily hyped by the industry, media, and praised as a Grammy favorite, what is he truly the greatest at?
This isn’t hate, just an objective observation
Greatest at being the biggest hypocrite of 2015

We get it
We got it
Friendly reminder that being anti-intellectual/anti-woke doesn’t make you any smarter than the same people you’re criticizing
Lmao it’s more like pro-woke ones have been always positioning their taste as superior to any other music so this is the built up backlash they are now getting.
It’s always been seen as way wilder to critique Kendrick than it is to overly praise him.
Lyrically / top albums wise speaking, he’s better than all of them. Big is close though
Kendrick is not lyrically better than Jay and top albums can be debated
Kanye was everything you just said and on top of that had ghostwriters but niggas still put him as top 5.
Ye was 5x the artist Kendrick is
And — didn’t get the same boost by the industry and media Kendrick does
Not to mention, he took a 5 year hiatus just to drop morale 😭. That’s 7 years of doo doo in his trajectory
He’s a Great artist. But definitely overrated
awards don’t make the artist
I mean nas is one of the best emcees OAT, and he only has 1x Grammy
Kendrick isn’t the best artist or rapper, not even close. And they throw awards at him. That’s defined as being overrated
Just for the record though, personally he may just make it into the top 20… maybe

People usually have kanye high as a hip hop artist but not as a rapper.

Kanye is my favorite rapper but that’s subjective at the end of the day. Clearly people like Kendrick’s music more than you do
Like you can’t hate on Kendrick for being a media darling or having the “industry complex” and Grammys behind him when that’s the story of the majority of Kanye’s career pre Trump.
Even then every commercial mainstream rapper has the media and s*** behind them unless you’re a Youngboy type artist

That shift only happened fairly recently when it came out more and more he didn’t write some of his stuff.

Besides kanye stans most people didn't have him top 5 as a rapper.

Maybe not all time but he was seen as one of the best rappers during his prime, and he was but he also had a lot of help.

Most of those are overrated as hell. Plus Kanye is just the sum of his ghostwriters, it’s like putting dr Dre on the best rapper list
