    Yeah dude legit reached an amazing level of technical rapping and proficiency, combined with his hunger and passion to blow up it was impossible to deny him anymore. Monster Freestyle, The Heart Pt. 2, The City, HiiPoWeR, Ronald Reagan Era. All came out in a relatively short time and built Kendrick as a leading figure in hip hop.

    That and the interscope machine lol 😂 and the fact that he was groomed and handed everything every step of the way once he got in lol. Hence why he really isnt even poppin or respected like that, like drake for example. J cole is more interesting than k dot because he has a human side. Kdot is a perfect little token investment in conscious rap to alleviate dr dre’s guilty conscious. Lol. Sorry yall. Lets just agree to disagree, stop dissing me personally how about?

    What makes the Aftermath/Interscope machine so much more powerful than the Def Jam machine? Do you even know how many artists they've failed to make successful? You act like you know industry politics from the inside out.

    Nah, I’m implying he was a token investment by corporate interests to capitalize on the growing desire for “woke” “conscious” rappers despite already having surpressed countless extremely controversial and very conscious rappers for decades prior. Therefore perfect for brainwashed lemmings who love fast food media to think that by consuming kendrick lamar’s music that they are getting ahead, that they have something figured out. It’s really the opposite. People who uphold kendrick lamar are the most deluded and fell victim to some seriously genius marketing. Try black on both sides, or fear of a black planet, or yeezus. Gkmc is radio disney angry black man.

    Ever heard of the heart series by kdot? Know that the first part is a freestyle on a mos def beat? Prob not. Mos def and common fathered k dot haha. Step back stanley. Go back to the macklemore convo before u get hurt.

    You’re totally missing the point. You’re highlighting the similarities between Kendrick and Kanye, when it’s the differences that matter. Kanye West has basically made a career out of being contested by the mainstream media and establishment thought, to the point of becoming almost a caricature of himself. Kendrick Lamar is marketed because he is a very safe, very middle of the road, very moderate and watered down version of artists like Mos Def who experienced a lot of censorship and difficulty in his career for being who he was, not being a persona like Kendrick Lamar. Again, try listening to Mos Def, Public Enemy, Scarface, etc. GKMC is overhyped garbage that manifested itself into the hands of the think tank of the recording industry and was in turn further manipulated and confused and served back to the intelligentsia, like yourself, to be consumed and satiate their curiosity to hear the ideas of a highly creative and marginalized individual.

    why would any of this be the case when kendrick says in his music that he doesn't have the answers--that by listening to him people aren't "getting ahead" dude spent two whole albums over the past couple of years saying this

    and why tf do i need to listen to yeezus to "get ahead"? by listening to yeezus thats not suddenly going to make me a musically enlightened individual

    You guys were the ones who started making personal attacks, calling me 14, telling me go to bed. Then tried to argue and showed how little you even know about Kendrick and then tried to flex throwing random tidbits about him in. Then start ganging up on me making fun of how I type and express myself and calling me crazy haha. Gkmc mid
