omg he said humble
these niggas are SLICK you have to peep the little things like that with rappers.
they speak in CODE
Contemporary R&B stems from Disco so It does kinda fall under that category
Still doesn’t make it
Disco
The whole big three thing makes no sense for cudi but sure. People call these guys the big three because the represent mainstream rap. That’s my whole point, someone making the kind of music cudi makes was never going to be the face of mainstream rap. The music is too weird and not for the radio. Unless you are trying to tell me motm2 is made for the radio, because that happened while cudi was at his peak popularity and he completely swerved away from the mainstream sound and went a lot darker with his sound and lyrics. Then he dropped a rock album ffs.
You’re not putting that article in the time it was made in
We talking Day N Night/ AKNC Scott with a Graduation era Ye co-sign
He was definitely seen as an appealing mainstream act at that time, his uniqueness made him more appealing actually

Not counting that
Talking more about the s*** that’s been rumored since 2015
"Smoking on Top 5" pretty clearly also aimed at Drake
I’m telling you its coming, like give it three days max lol. People in here are crazy stupid and fail to realize Drake has been poking at Kendrick for years trying to get him started. Well here we are. Can’t believe we really about to get Kendrick vs Drake.
Bro has me hyped
He's him at what he did
But he's not Michael
Saying he hadn't mastered anything is nuts lol
Need Cole to drop a freestyle to Like That
“Oh you like that? 5 years it took you to step out, but oh you like that?” Need it expeditiously
It’s ashame that Future putting a battery in his back to fight his battle for him is what finally did it
I agree what a weird platform to springboard this
It almost feels like a marketing attempt behind the scenes to attach an “oh s***” moment that can make this album more than what it actually is
That doesn’t make it a disco album at all
Baby Be Mine might be the only Disco record everything else is a mix of rnb, rock, pop + a ballad at the end
Thriller is not a disco album
R&b and pop at that time, and just Quincy Jones whole production style, was still lowkey drenched in disco remnants
Disco has most of those things in it too
All that “who’s the best of the big 3” talk and Kendrick comes with a surprise verse saying nah it’s still me lol don’t care what corner you’re in you gotta love this s*** just for the sport of it
Kendrick has more to lose
Drake already has a battle record and has lost we know how it looks
Kendrick can’t just go back to making pop records if he loses, if he loses it’s over
Side note: You a Charles Hamilton fan?
Cole can’t let Nas down again. Ether pt2 coming soon
he let kendrick down by going on tour with drake 💔
The largest hip hop magazines have always covered generation shifting artists, thats what that Drake, Wale, and Cudi article was about.
They were artists signaling a major change in hip hop, but none of them aside from Cudi were at anything close to a commercial peak.
Its a “these three artists are turning heads in a major way”. Big three = top three IN THE RAP GAME
Don’t you see how that conversation evolved into what we have now? like this s*** didn’t come out of thin air
"Smoking on Top 5" pretty clearly also aimed at Drake
It's a Chris Rock diss
