I like Joe's response. This shit was more of a shack up to the rappers than anything. It's like Kendrick is tired of being in his own world. If I wasn't mentioned, I'd be evn more mad than if I was mentioned.

it doesn't matter what style of music he makes Tyga is 100% garbage and the only reason he is where he's at is because of his cousin in Gym Class Heroes that plugged him into the industry... nobody would have ever signed him and he need not react to Kendrick either because he's not in that lane of rappers that were called out anyway

Kendrick is much better than TI that's for sure
bullshit. he's better than crooked I though.

Will, love you, but Kendrick is better than TI. He's not at his level in terms of career yet though, but one more album and I'd say he'd pass him.

where I said that Tyga is dope?

he need not react to Kendrick either because he's not in that lane of rappers that were called out anyway

so what, Kendrick also ain't mentioned Crooked, Prodigy, Problem, just notice how this verse can change some rappers.

 Dope track. I thought the first guy was pretty good. Kendricks verse was fucking awesome. I never heard him rap as aggressively as that.
 Kinda feel sorry for the guy at the end having to come on after that!
 I'll have to check out some of the responses.
 I see the Ortiz one is here at Dubcnn, any got links to the others? Or i guess i could you tube.
 EDIT:Ortiz response is  8) :o ;D

Bar for bar, Kendrick got a point. NONE of these new niggas got a shot. None of the ones mentioned anyway.

Bada$$ might come harsh. I expect Budden and Fab to let him have it.

But I've been saying it for years on here that rap needs to stop being everyone being all friendly and being careful of what they say about other rappers so they don't lose fans or connections. Niggas should be dissing each other every other day. Every single person he called out and then some have claimed to be "on top" or "boss" or whatever. Kendrick tryna make niggas earn it.

Ortiz might have over reacted to the young man but oh well, how old was gay z when he did his first diss record ? Atleast KDot didnt talk about past lovers and drop subliminal inside jokes only the crews of the dissed will get...KDot dumbed it down and made it universal..

lmfao gayz had to build a foundation and shake hands with big wigs "fellow free masons" for yearrrrs..... before he was comfortable with dissing someone. Not to mention the guy he dissed was from his same coast and also the guy was oblivious to the reason on being dissed.... this is ur king of hiphop ? The guy who hid during the east vs west!!!

I think gay z is using artist like jcole to redirect 2Pac's image and legacy, the tiniest pebel can make the huggest ripple.

It will be a cold day in hell before u take my Ambitions as a Ridah !!!

Protect The WEST ! R.I.P TUPAC.


Also, i cant take that bob record serious, fruityloops with an exspensive plug in, i bet he just added the intro and reconstructed his lyrics. Bob went half assed, Ortiz plaine out represented......nuff said, so respect it !!!

dudes are getting real sensitive, lol at Ortiz dude aint even the best MC in his group, actually i think he's the weakest behind buddens

haha i agree with you except for the ridin dirty part. I think he was dope on Dirty Money, especially his verse on the title track, and on Underground Kingz, but yeah he's a bit washed up nowadays and as you said he's raping rappers for money. don't understand how a legendary cat like Quik had to pay 140 k for a Bun verse when you know there's peeps he's not even charging. same goes for Erick Sermon who paid Rick Ross 200k i think for a verse on his last mixtape when Sermon was one of the first to put Ross on his Erick Onassis album.

Lmfa @ these rappers, what KDot did was weed out the wack and dumbness, rappers who got dissed dont know they got dissed (your to stupid to know your getting dissed) **wesley snipes, white men cant jump**

The rappers who didnt get dissed jus assume they got dissed, most likly they watchd them youtube videos over and over to see what to rap about. Its no longer about the "Verse" but now its about the video responses. These cats had to dumb it down for the dumb ones, even though KDots message is clear as hell.

KDot showed you Your true colors !!!

Its funny how all these rappers got they g-strings in a bunch over the King of NY line but when Kurupt said it in the original verse Kendrick got it from, didn't nobody even blink. Because they know Kurupt woulda served they ass on the mic with that bullshit. But soon they're gonna know not to step to Kendrick with that shit either. I smell a ether coming on one of these rappers courtesy of Kendrick.

A few. I guess I was a bit disappointed over the last year over the lack of buzz Kendrick got over Good Kid M.A.A.D. City. Don't get me wrong, he was the hottest topic over the last year, but when the Game came out you had a whole sub-section to him. Kendrick to me is better than Game, and his buzz should have been bigger. But I think things are picking up. The more Kendrick does to stir up the game, the better it is for this board. At the end of the day I think it's DubCNN's and DubCC's job to fully get behind Kendrick and ride that wave. There is no question right now the west coast is the best region in Hip-Hop. I'm not being bias, the best rap music is coming out of California. It's time to wake up, and that includes me.

He's had a few but he's def not the same without Pimp. He killed his feature on City Lights with Meth and Red...those 2 had no flow and were auto tuning their rhymes, and it's almost like Bun kicks in the door and shows those fools how to rap. But for the most part, his rhymes since Pimp died have been overly simplistic, mono syllable freestyle type of stuff. He's giving about 50% effort these days. He's def got the talent, but It has to be brought out of him, and Pimp did that.

That song he did with Premo was such a let down. Premo's beat was as generic as Bun's verses. 2 Texas legends and neither of them seemed like they gave a damn lol.

Hiphop has always been FEELING the music tho.

99% of rappers "doin what they 'posed to" (read as generic) are doing it wrong.

Kendrick puts out an album with originally, personallity, content, technicality, and a strong musical element gets the alchemy of rap just right. People take note. It's not about complaining people live it the past, it's catching people in the now.

King Petey summed it up perfectly, he said GKMC will be looked back on as a document of the youth at the time. That's the reality Kendrick brought to the table. Not mafioso, superficial, bling, crunk, macho, violent, horror, misogynist, gangsta, swag, clown or straight retardation. Just hiphop and his own feelings on wax.

I think the bigger problem is people live in the past. Mention the new guys and people think they are wack. Hip-Hop has always been about the here and now.

Hiphop has always been FEELING the music tho.

99% of rappers "doin what they 'posed to" (read as generic) are doing it wrong.

Kendrick puts out an album with originally, personallity, content, technicality, and a strong musical element gets the alchemy of rap just right. People take note. It's not about complaining people live it the past, it's catching people in the now.

King Petey summed it up perfectly, he said GKMC will be looked back on as a document of the youth at the time. That's the reality Kendrick brought to the table. Not mafioso, superficial, bling, crunk, macho, violent, horror, misogynist, gangsta, swag, clown or straight retardation. Just hiphop and his own feelings on wax.

In terms of GKMC, I'd agree. I put that in my phone and just listened to it from beginning to end. It was one of the rare albums that I can just play without skipping a trade and it told a story. And I felt that album, it was as if this guy took my teenage years it put it on wax. Like damn, this is what happens in Rialto, CA too, and I was feeling the who think, especially the two tracks that made up M.A.A.D. City with MC Eiht. So I agree with you. I think GKMC joins the classic albums list, and I'd put it better than College Dropout, which for me is very, very high. Still, it's hard to rank albums.

With that said, I also think other artist are putting out good music and it should be listened too. I think a lot of people live in their Chronic past, and it's time to come out and see what these cats are saying. They are a reflection of youth culture, and even if we don't like it, we have to respect it. Adults didn't like rap music in the 90's, but rap music was saying something. Now that I'm the adult, I'm not going to ignore the voice of the youth. It's time to see what they're saying. And yeah, Kendrick maybe the only one with a true message, but that is also very, very, very telling of were the youth are as well, when they don't even have a message of their own.

Kendrick Lamar Says King Los Had The Best "Control" Response

Compton rapper Kendrick Lamar may have approached his verse on Big Sean’s “Control” like any of the other guest verses he’s appeared on, but his addition to the No I.D.-produced song morphed into something more than a standard guest feature. On the lengthy verse, Kendrick challenged his fellow emcees and even boasted on holding the title of “king of New York.”

Weeks after the song’s release, the TDE emcee is finally speaking on his celebrated verse. Kendrick, who was out of the country when “Control” dropped, shared his thoughts on the verse and the feedback it’s received during an interview with Los Angeles’ Power 106 yesterday (August 28) and spoke even more in-depth about the song while chopping it up with HOT 97 personality Peter Rosenberg today (August 29).

Shortly after speaking on social media’s negative effect on the verse, Kendrick spoke on his fear of less “polished” emcees being so caught up in their Twitter replies and friends gassing them up that they take their response to the verse to unnecessary levels.

“All the ignorance behind it, you can kill that noise,” Kendrick demanded. “It’ll never be like that again where two coasts [rivals]. Not on my behalf. You get what I’m saying? Not while I’m doing this. And I think the OG’s of the game would want that anyway. They’d want that competitive nature back and no bloodshed over it. You feel me? I’m way too wise and I’m way too polished to not get caught up in the hype of the media, but what I’m scared of is cats that’s not polished and they getting caught up in what they Twitter responses is saying. And what they’re homies around them saying and people gassing them up. And they try to take it to the next level. Nah, that’s not G. That’s not gangsta.”

Despite receiving “all love” from New York heavyweights including Jay Z and Diddy, Kendrick further clarified his “king of New York” mention on “Control,” stating that he was merely trying to convey how “hungry” of an artist he is.

“My first sold out show was in New York. You get what I’m saying? So, I always looked at that place as a place that respected me and my lyrics and respected the culture and the birthplace of it. I think the ones that really took it out of context was the people that we know [who] wanted to grab an opportunity just off the fact of the hype of the record,” said the good kid, m.A.A.d city rapper. “Rather than actually tuning in and listening and know how hungry I am…I’m saying I’m the most hungry in this…I respect the legends in the game. I respect people who done it before me. People that lost they lives over this. So, because of what they laid down I’m gon’ try and go ten times harder and breathe it and live it. And that’s the whole point of the whole verse.”

Lastly, Kendrick offered his thoughts on the artists he feels had the best “Control” responses. Among them were Joe Budden, Joell Ortiz, King Los, and Kevin Hart’s rap persona, Chocolate Drop.

“I liked the [King] Los verse,” Kendrick revealed. “Joe Budden did this thing, Joell; a lot of people with different approaches…Joey had the facts in his verse, a few things that he felt. Papoose had the comical joint. Los was flipping his words and putting that spunk on it. I think he had the killer thing though. Yeah, Los killed it out of everybody. But the number one joint at the top of the list had to be Chocolate Drop.”
