i don't think the OP could be serious with that statement, the thread is a joke. lol @ the serious replies.
listen to this, i luv gangsta rap as well, miss it but kendrick is tha shit.and to tell u tha truth i hate new music im stuck in 90´s but there are few cats that do it for me: game, nip huss, jay rock, kendrick THAT`S ALL.
Ok, ok I get everyone's opinions here. I agree-- Kendrick is a dope lyricist-- unrivaled lyrically by nearly all rappers out there currently.I am a big fan of beats and instrumentals that go behind the artist. And the beats Kendrick spits on are A) not that great, and B) not that funky or soulful...I'm going to say it: Kendrick is kind of like a Black Eminem-- he can spit a dope rap (although more intelligently than Eminem), but where's that smooth funky flow? I guess that's what I miss the most. He is a great & talented artist and I respect that he doesn't fake shit or be a studio gangster. I just aint feeling his beats that much.If Dre picked him up and produced (or oversaw the production) of a Kendrick Lamar album, now THAT MIGHT BE TIGHT. But with all the wack (yes I said it) production on his songs, I'm sorry, I'm gonna call a spade a spade. I don't hear any top 40 beats in there. His voice can get a little annoying too, but it's bearable because of his intelligence and wit.Dope MC. Wack beats.
They have the rap flow of a white person in common.
Hopefully someone steps up in that hard gangsta hole soon
