Anon is correct. Rap is an entirely compromised platform at this time.

There is almost no real rap.

>>72054895
Drake is more relevant, Kanye more consistent (he has a full body of work not two and a half albums and a mixtapes), and Danny and Earl more talented.

But maybe Kendrick is the best all around star in rap. A lot of it will hinge on his next album so it better not disappoint or he drops down below Drake tier

I thought TPAB was shit but GKMC and the Untitled shit were both pretty dope. TPAB was alright but it was try hard political in places where Kendrick is just a rapper kid not some sociology major so I felt it missed some major points in that department and if it was harder hitting I would have liked it more even if I don't agree with his views.

STOP SHILLING ARTISTS THAT ARE ALREADY POPULAR

He's trash.

Hi, my name is Kendrick "Mumbles" Lamar and this is my new song! Don't worry, nothing rhymes and it's just a bunch of slant trash and syallable-based consonant shit, but don't mind that I'll go ahead and add on some garbage about how "Im da best" and "da struggle" and some other trash.

Don't worry, I'll keep pretending to greatness even though I'm staying consistent on some fake shit!

He's the reddit of rap, seriously. Popular trash that many think is good, and that most will disagree with you if you talk shit about it.

Then Whit told me, "A woman is woman, love the creation"
It all came from God, then you was my confirmation
Are you literally retarded? He's saying no matter whether you are black or white you should be happy with your skin color because we all came from the same God.

Kendrick is basically speaking out against identity politics.

He's been saying this shit since Fuck Your Ethnicity you fucking /pol/yp.

Ya know you can stop pretending to hate Kendrick anytime, /mu/. He has risen the standards of mainstream hip hop as a whole and solidified himself as an icon of the genre. It's okay if hip hop isn't your thing but trying to say he isn't good is just showing your hand at this point.

What the fuck is this thread

>Everyone who says kendrick is great doesn't give a reason why

>Everyone who's shit doesn't give a reason why

>People think that liking obscure artists some how makes their taste better

Kendrick's lyris are layered and well thought out, much more so than any other modern era artist. He's changed styles so many times and can cover a wide range of different subject matter.

If you compare tracks like money trees to, say, Fuck Your Ethnicity, to i, you can see his prowess as a lyricist and musician.
Other artists tend to focus on one specific style, delivery, and are proficient in one element versus all others.

Kendrick can make a banger, a political piece or straight poetry.

Meanwhile, Eminem is releasing things like Campaign speech, which, while lyrically impressive, is not something with great replay value.

Kanye is never going back to 808 and heartbreak type shit, ever, and we're stuck with the "new kanye" which is not necessarily bad, although its much more tailored to be easy to listen to. Although he has occasional moments, like Real Friends, where we see "old ye(ller)" come back.

I mean, listen to Rigamortis.

Drake has been consistently successful commerically but the quality of his music has dipped since the greatness that was IYRTITL. He's basically at that stage in his career where effort isn't necessary because he'll still make money on the basis that he's, you know, Drake.

Wasting breath on garbage drums
You should speak less, you make everyone dumb
Everytime you move your tongue
Every rhyme a toilet cum
While my thoughts are making babies cuz they break the condom
And I do this like a run
Just an exercise
Ectoplasm eyes
That's orgasm prize
But it come from thinking, seed a thought, it grows beyond the skies
And you still there thinking
Bout what the fuck it means when I said that I be racing soul
This my belt, I'm on on a roll
Brace the heavens, centerfold
Taste eleven genitals
That's the closest that you get to spitting something meaningful
And my queen think I'm too mean to you
I could skin you, make a leather shoe
Now that's getting top of game
And I feel no shame when I deposit pain

Why would we want that? 808s isn't his best album. And both FML and Wolves were 808s-like in atmosphere, Saint Pablo too, just with more rapping.
>its much more tailored to be easy to listen to.
Kanye's always been pop-leaning, did you forget Graudation?
And Yeezus was tailored to be easy to listen to? Not to the average person.
TLOP is pop, but it's more art-pop rap.

>>72057118
>>72059096

these are gud but kendrick wouldn't write it

>>72057118
This sounds more like Earl, because it's more strictly rapping. Kendrick has a conversation with you and it happens to rhyme and have clever wordplay.

>>72059096
I guess this is closer but like what >>72059271 said Kendrick wouldn't rap this. This is what I was thinking of when I asked:

>And my dick working like
>Two single mothers, three kids each
>One need braces, one learning speech
>Gentle faces, two got beat
>Special places, one scholar, one in streets
>Three jobs, every penny spent
>Best believe they give up all complaining when it's time for Lent
>Story time is over, cause my dick repent

He opens up something that most people would close immediately and he takes you into his mindset.

If you want them to battle you'd get Really Doe, which is about as close as modern rappers will get. Earl keeps it simple but managed to still go hard as fuck, and Kendrick shows you he can do it all.

Kendrick can say more, and is more clever line to line and observes more (bet a thousand, shoot a thousand / things a nigga do for thousands / made a million counting sheep) but Earl, as he says best
>beat the fucking beat up like it stole from me

What would it take for Chance to write an aggressive rap? Kendrick, Vince and Earl can throw punches like no one else, and Chance has some of the most clever lines, but I'd love to hear him deliver something that could rival Kendrick. Like his own Control or untitled 02.

Earl and Vince exist in their own corner, and they're powerful allies who could absolutely blow Kendrick away if provoked, but Chance has some angel armor going. Kendrick's artistry is still better, though.

Freddie Gibbs, vince and kendrick are the best currently operating rappers

open mike eagle is also very good

>>72054835
are you even serious right now

>>72062622
Rapping is (content approach x lyricism)/delivery, evaluated per the limit as R approaches 1

Which is why Vince is the best. He's the least lyrical but his delivery is perfect and he approaches his topics better than the others.

>>72062686
His lexicon is impressive for his age, he's demonstrated an adept understanding of meter, much like Kendrick, and uses (limited) melody better than Kendrick. It'd be fascinating to see him approach that outside of his comfort zone. Plus he said he wanted to work with Earl.
