Exxxxxactly!He'd have to get farrr away from Def Jam for that to happen
I remember when lupe could do no wrong on here. It's those dreads mane
He was the man but after Lasers he lost a lot of his core fan base. He's still one of best lyricist out today. But he and twitter should go they separate ways
... am i missing something ?
SLR2 is a piece of hot garbage
How do you take out the two Kings who are still VERY ACTIVE and still bodying verses and claim someone who isn't from here is king?
I wasn't really bothered by the King of NY thing until people started taking the discussion somewhere else. This record was to purely tell cats to step they lyrical game up.... in the matter of 12 hours it went from that to the emphasis all on NYC. People don't want NYC to be relevant but have turned the entire discussion into something about NYC
Point blank there is nobody in NYC who is as well rounded as K.dot is right now out of the new artist.... However when you have two Legends who are still on their A game & who K.dot LITERALLY STUDIED you can't give a prince a crown.
If that was the case Jay been the King of Cali since 2001 (Lets not even get into the fact that Jay heavily worked on chronic 2001). There aint been nobody on the westcoast since Pac's death who could hold a candle to Jay or Nas but you didn't see them claiming king of Cali....
You the king of New York? Beg ya pardon?/ The King of L.A. is dead and that n*gga from Harlem…[TUPAC!]
either you're deaf or you didn't hear Ortiz over that beat...No one has yet to match or bring that caliber of a verse to the table that's needed. NY is defenseless at this point TBH.

So for those saying Kendrick aint the king in LA right now, who is?
But you know what I meant when I said that. He's already on commercials so he's headed in that direction. I just don't want him to get worse. Def Jam in recent years is not really known for artist development. That's the scary part.In a way, I hope he doesn't get total commercial appeal, then that might take away from what makes him him. Unless he can find that balance of being a commercial success without sacrificing his sound.
He'd have to get farrr away from Def Jam for that to happen
If he is, that goes to show how weak the west coast has been over the longer period of time, where an artist in what his junior year can come and claim King...in NY we have some of the most important figures of hiphop that been relevant for longer than some been born...Jay, Puff, Nas, etc.... Ain't no French Montana or any new rapper gonna come into the mix and be crowned king of NY by the people of this city when it comes to hiphop....the fact ya slurping this kid so bad really shows how desperate the west coast has been for someone to come and represent ya nationwide....enjoy it while it lasts.
I'm glad Young Guru got it
You have people that will gobble Kendrick's nuts, just because it's Kendrick and he's the flavor of the month and that's the in thing to do. People who didn't have no clue who Kendrick was and never listened to Section 80 will say he's their favorite rapper.
I heard Joell just fine. I also heard the normal level of rap have gave over the same beat....which was the point of what Kendrick was trying to say in the 1st place. Make better material!! That sounded like any other Joell verse I've already heard. Which is not a bad thing but it also didn't help prove or say anything about Joell.either you're deaf or you didn't hear Ortiz over that beat...
Ab Soul called out rappers way before Kendrick did
