Yes

He is Goat

Kendrick dropped morale than followed it up with an album ppl genuinely thought was a mixtape

Bro got wiped down in his own city by Tyler 😭😭😭 if Kendrick is a goat that means Tyler is a goat

And Kendrick is like 15th overall in streams or some s***. Even after the whole industry and media complex continuously push him to no end.

He can be your goat OP but not even close to the goat

If sales your only argument against it he absolutely is the goat

no goat uses bots

I love how people (specific type of stan) are using sales as the primary argument to him not being the argument

Near 300k for a surprise drop and no physicals and no bloated tracklisting is good

Did some Kendrick stans overestimate how much he would do? Yes, just like those same ones did with Morale. Doesnt mean its not a good first week

He got:

Great Discography
Impact
Influence
Hits
Subject matter
Diversity

his own peers were calling him the goat with damn

Imagine the entire discussion about who's the GOAT being based on how many streams someone got in their FW, You probably think Lil Pump is better than Nas cause of more Spotify streams lol. Yall Drake groupies in shambles fr.

No one has mentioned rap ability this whole thread

This has always been a thing. Units is short for album equivalent units. Which includes streams.

Jay Z the only I put above him but after 2024 idek

Top 2, old heads will still lean Jay

he is a great rapper but artificially inflating your numbers in a rap beef to appear bigger than you actually are is sad af

it could be that he didnt even know though so in that case i would take back my statement

It’s him and Hov at the top as far as I’m concerned

Kendrick’s been beefing with Drake since GKMC if we are being honest

There’s really no need to because his catalog speaks for itself at this point

It’s pretty clear now

Drake tryna sully Kendrick’s moment by being a b****

Kendrick raps good

There you go

If people aren't choosing his music over other artists', how can he be considered the GOAT?

When discussing a musician's dominance, it seems essential to factor in whether their music is consistently preferred over others

what metric is kendrick the goat in? Grammys? Macklemore has grammys, too

Undeniable at this point

Yeah this was a slow burn to an explosive year

rapping ability, writing, flows, concepts, constructing cohesive albums, making hits, making storytelling tracks, diss tracks, pop songs, doesnt matter he can do it all
