Why is Kanye lumped in with Kendrick Lamar? Why do people assume

>Why do people assume that if you like one you'll like the other?
Because their both pushed by the music industry, and generally speaking the type of people like Kanye or Kendrick just like whatever they're told to like

>the type of people like Kanye or Kendrick just like whatever they're told to like
How could someone just be like that? Completely unconscious. I love Kanye, but I dislike Kendrick, Common, Talib Kweli, Mos Def, Lupe Fiasco, and everyone else people associate with him, their music isn't similar to his.

I didn't know anyone could dislike the artists you listed, but then again I grew up with them

>>69184874
they are both black

>>69185219
I didn't grow up with them and they don't make the type of music I like, the closest rappers to Kanye I've found are pre-gospel Chance, Dark Sky Paradise Big Sean, and Gambino (who's garbage).

They're the kings of mainstream hip hop. If you listen to mainstream hip hop then you definitely like one or both.

Kendrick Lamar is literally a reaction against rap becoming mainstream ie acceptable to whites under artists such as Kanye and Nicki. Kendrick's just a nigger.

I think you're a nigger

"The blacker the berry the sweeter the juice?" The implicit meaning's obvious.

>>69186859
Blackberries aren't even black they're more of a purple lmao

>>69186716
but I don't.

kanye raised the bar for mainstream hip hop production
kendrick raised the bar for mainstream hip hop lyricism

>>69186716
mainstream hip hop is trap rap nigger shit.

>>69187504
Kendrick isn't lyrical.

>>69185003
people aren't actually like that. people just like the music they like.

>>69186859
yes of course he makes pro black music but saying "kendrick's just a nigger" is what you're being called out for here obviously
