    Kendrick

    But this is a weird comparison

    Kendrick, Kanye, J.Cole, Lupe Fiasco, Joey Badass, JID, etc would not exist if it weren’t for Nas

  • Kendrick but i still think Nas is the better rapper. And his current s*** is pretty f***in good at 51 rn

  • AGoodBoyo

    lol I’m not mad at the take.

    Kendrick is obviously a fully realized artist compared to Nas.

    Nas has always been a deep thinker with something to say but he has also fallen for the pitfalls of rapping just to rap.

    Both are goats. And I hope I’m spinning Kenny in 20 years the way I’m spinning Nas.

    Nas isnt even close to someone who raps just to raps lol.

    Dude is one of the greatest conceptual songwriters in all of hip hop. Even Lupe said that a lot of his storytelling and conceptual songs are inspired by Nas.

    Nas has songs about damn near every topic imaginable.

    Do you fools listen to music or just skim through it?

  • this is not an alt

    1 hot album every 10 years average

    Saying this when Nas dropped multiple great albums this decade is wild.

    Kendrick

    But this is a weird comparison

    Kendrick, Kanye, J.Cole, Lupe Fiasco, Joey Badass, JID, etc would not exist if it weren’t for Nas

    Th expectation should be for the modern artist to surpass the goats and only really Kendrick has met that expectation

    I guess in my eyes Nas has one more classic than Kendrick. But I’m aware that I like Nas as an artist more than I like Kendrick anyways. At the same time, not sure where I’d exactly put that classic line at. Idk if I should consider Stillmatic or Mr. Morale a classic, both of them as a whole have their slight setbacks.

    Stillmatic is a certified Klassic in my eyes. Yea it has some lows but the highs are so good that I can’t deny it’s status

    DAMN the worst album on here by far tho

  • ryuH

    Aight man I’m ok with niggas saying Kendrick has more classics because objectively that’s facts and Kendrick is a better album artist in general, pretty much in Kanye’s league atp BUT let’s not start talking reckless lol

    Kendrick is more abstract lyrically he is not on Nas level when it comes to imagery storytelling or wordplay stop

    Lol, don't do this mayne, I love nas

  • Illmatic is the Genesis, and tpab is the peak! I'd love a collab f*** Allat, such awesome careers

    What makes Life is good a classic to you? I liked the album when it dropped but I haven’t really listen to it like that in years outside of Cherry Wine

    Imagine having personal taste and not appeasement ticks

    Its not even about personal taste, you’re outright dismissing the artist that a lot of hiphop fans probably have as the single greatest rapper of all time. That’s what i call hating
