He should use monkey noises because black people usually get shot by black people

That's a weird way to abbreviate To Pimp a Butterfly.

>taking lyrics completely out of their context and still judging them

Get a fucking grip of yourself idiot

youtu.be/LZIc8VSonVY?t=30

That's a rather shitty and played out non-argument

>its about life in the hood man its complex and you cant understand it, hes actually criticizing that lifestyle!

This is the explanation of these lyrics "in context" i recieve every single time this comes up, so if you have a different one go for it

great lyricist use simple words that are meaningful.

He doesn't have a different one

Fuck off you edgy prick

You have shit taste, not a reason to get mad user.

you are absolutely seething mad m8 lmao

This isn't even sung by Kendrick. It's a character in the song. Is this the worst you can find of his? That's pathetic.

>BITCH BE HUMBLE
>SIT DOWN NIGGA
>BE HUMBLE
truly one of the greats

> someone makes fun of rap
> butthurt nu-males crawl out of the woodwork and announce "g-g-go back to Sup Forums"

EVERY TIME

> the chorus

Christ, this is a pathetic attempt at calling someone a bad lyricist.

>NEED DAT SLOPPY
>LIKE A CHEVY IN QUICKSAND

Kino.

>All my life I want money and power
>Respect my mind or die from lead shower
>I pray my dick get big as the Eiffel Tower
>So I can fuck the world for seventy-two hours

Truly a modern Shakespeare

your helpless attempt to defend kendrick is way more pathetic tbqhwymm

...

I haven't defended him, I've said the criticisms are weak as fuck. They still are.

>AK's
>AR's
>Ay y'all
>DUCK

kek

>Shit on anybody, I'm a rappin' port-a-potty
>and I probably gotta dump right now
Sincerely the voice of a generation

>Kill Whitey: the album

>pointing out objectively atrocious lyrics is weak criticism
whatever helps you sleep at night

literally Hopsin tier

Anyone expecting the chorus in a song to be lyrically deep is a moron.

read

here's your (you)

...

fuck what anyone says, this is great

lurk more please you're embarassing yourself in front of everyone user

of course, hip-hop fans can only evade the question or employ logical fallacies when confronted with this truth. deep down, below several thick layers of cognitive dissonance and social programming, they know very well hip-hop lyricism is as poignant as middle school poetry club

ty ty far too kind

2deep

>Anyone expecting the chorus in a song to be lyrically deep is a moron.
You know how I know you listen to rap exclusively?

based melon man knows kendrick is sliding

>he thinks that pointing out Backseat Freestyle is vulgar, brash and hedonistic counts as '''criticism''' when really it showcases how effective Kendrick's songwriting is as it is sung by a young and inexperienced Kendrick in the context of the album's story

Valid argument though, TPAB was his last good album

*tips fedora*

damn...

>he thinks that pointing out Ill Mind of Hopsin 5 is vulgar, brash and hedonistic counts as '''criticism''' when really it showcases how effective Hopsin's songwriting is as it is sung by a young and inexperienced Hopsin in the context of the album's story

tru tru

>TPAB
>good

>le Sup Forums meme

Theres nothing Sup Forums about someone calling you on your shit taste

Was Kendrick ever really that good?

no he's just a BLM tool/meme

decent at best but highly overrated

Sup Forums posters who fell for the Sup Forums bogeyman are worse than any Sup Forums crossposters

he's good for a rapper, the lowest level playing field there is

he sings song

>judging the chorus
really nigga

Which other parts of the song are you not allowed to judge?

>Bitch, be humble (hol’ up, bitch)
>Sit down (hol’ up, lil', hol’ up, lil' bitch)
>Be humble (hol' up, bitch)
>Sit down (hol' up, sit down, lil’, sit down, lil' bitch)

DAMN YO.. HE A GENIUS YALL..

give that man a Nobel Prize for Littyrature already

kendrick is deep cause he's got my cock deep up his ass

black people are stupid as fuck lmao

...

damn...

>literally the dumbest shit

>be black
>3904857235607% get saved/unchained by white people
>still bitch and complain
Why are blacks so retarded?

>LeprechaunFitzy

Hahahaahah

>It's supposed to be bad

Since it's not any different really from what he or any other rapper usually unironically raps about, I have a really hard time believing that this is the case.

It's the same thing as when Fantano talks about Death Grips. He's always going on about McRide playing a "character" to excuse his violent and ridiculous lyrics. Like the music has these multiple dimensions and layers, which it doesn't, or not as much as he'd like at least. (And I actually like Death Grips mind you)

>still the best use of gun shot sample in music history on Sing About Me, I'm Dying of Thirst
>even with "deep" implications aside
no problem here

are you really this retarded or are you just baiting, god damn

If you had done any research, you would have actually noticed that kendrick is known to assume different characters often changing his inflection. I would say in conjunction with his big vocabulary, strong metaphors and rhyme patterns it is his trademark.

The thing about him is that he embraces the good and the bad alike, tries to be real where he came from much unlike Lupe Fiasco who is known to be preachy.

As for Kendricks ability, take a look at his Holy Key Verse:

Everything I touch may disintegrate into dust (uh huh)
Everything I trust may dishonor me in disgust (come on)
Everything is everything, affidavits and wedding rings
Out for blood on my higher horse, I report what it was
I don't wear crosses no more, Yeshua's coming back
I ain't scared of losses no more, I see life in that
I don't resonate with the concept of love and hate
Cause your perspective is less effective and rather fake
The universe and the heavens work in my DNA
Kendrick said "Fuck Mother Earth," that's PSA
The land of the wicked, the foundation of Lucifer's spirit
Walking zombies and spellcatchers, I pray for forgiveness
Uncle Bobby and Paul June is lost again
The underworld and the fourth dimension, my family's in
The big money, the fast cars, my life produced
The blocks I connected while re-building this Rubik's cube
So what you look up to?
Fame and fortune, bitches, Porsches
Sources with designer thing
Brand endorsement joining forces with sorcerers signing me
Law enforcement their forces, tortures us with violent speed
Fuck your boss's employment my joy is to see all you bleed
Two knew Royce's with choices of color my desire need
Crab and Oyster with gorgeous abortions, I require thee
Flesh and poison the point is the reason
You won't die in peace
Open door for my boy, now they eating, we say, finally
I destroy and divorce what you eating, don't you hire me
Tape recording my voices and tweak it
Let's play hide and seek
War distortion and forfeit this evening, you should try at least
I'm restoring the portrait of feasting, nigga, I am beast
I don't like to sleep, I'm up like coyote, I might OD
Hair like ODB, I'm off a higher need
Khaled is valid, I been looking for inspiration
But when you the only king, you the only one in the matrix

>Big vocabulary
Lmao
Lupe raps circles around Kendrick btw

Melon head sums up Kendrick fans reaction to any criticism of kdot

>a bunch of non-sequiturs and forced spiritual lyrical miracle rhymes
>this is supposed to be good
lmfao

Ask any new person of what they think about the album DAMN by Kendrick Lama.
>If they say: Who?
Go away.
>If they say any thing positive.
Go away.
>If they say: Something mostly negative
>And they're of opposite sex
Partner material.

I have no fucking idea how people listen to this shit.

is this good? do I like it?

maybe you should try to argue this stuff on a more general level, in terms of literariness it's kind of embarrassing if you know anything about the western canon
I understand that it's all a big game of relativism and cultural reparations when it comes to rap but try to be sensible about it

Kendrick "rhymezone" Lamar

Alright, yet it's still at the core the same theme as pretty much every other rap song. He just made the language more complex.

De ay em ehn...

Rap is so fucking obnoxious, goddamn.

but that is the point, it's like comparing fitzgerald to tarkovskij, both differnt mediums, yet well versed in their craft.

Can this verse encompass Goethe, Tolstoi or anyone else? No, but compare him to his peers and you will see that not only many comment on his ability but if you actually compare his pure use of syllables on a technical level you will that out there, there are maybe just 5-10 rappers that can actually touch him. Pharaohe Monche, Eminem before he went bad, Big Pun, MF Doom and the like which also is hard to call since all are so widely different in character and style.

>Out for blood on my higher horse, I report what it was
>I don't wear crosses no more, Yeshua's coming back

>I don't resonate with the concept of love and hate
>Cause your perspective is less effective and rather fake
>The universe and the heavens work in my DNA

Sounds like a PSEUD

Like angry teen-angst after their one-it-is rejects them.

I think again that you should do your research before assuming things.

'Sing about me' is about the loss of a friend, what is left when you suddenly exit the world and the impact your life and death has to those around you.

'u' is mostly about self reflection, doubt, depression and suicidal tendencies, blaming yourself for survivors guilt and sudden fame and not being able to save everyone and I could go on and on.

To me it comes off that you were just here to air out your opinion withour being willing to do the research to back it up iE. listening to some albums or tracks at least, educating yourself.

>Pure use of syllables
What? Amount of syllables doesn't make you great lmao
If you mean syllables in terms of rhyme, Kendrick isn't that crazy. Pretty basic actually. And when you have a verse so dense you're bound to get rhymes on accident. Kendrick is a classic example of not knowing when to edit, and also not speaking emotionally, and being forgettable.
The only CLEVER line in there is the
>The block I connected while rebuilding this Rubik's Cube
It illustrates the puzzle Kendrick is trying to piece together while using wordplay to say he also "connected the block" as in neighborhood.

I have to disagree respectfully. Could you point out another MC that qualifies for the criteria you mentioned? Maybe it helps me to understand where you are coming from.

>ayo nigga, bigga, big a, digga, dig a, figga, giga-, jigga, wigga (bitch)
>chica, pitta, shittah, vitta, whydah, wicca, agrippa (bitch)
what an innovative and deep thinker

u dont understand!! kendrick just wants to highlight what it is to live in the ghetto!! u just dont get how deep his lyrics are desu

>Rhyme Scheme
Nas, Eminem, Biggie
>Knowing when too edit
Nas, his verses tend to say all that's needed to be said without overdoing it, with maybe a little flair. A lot of golden age MCs were good at this.
>Speaking emotionally
2pac, Scarface, DMX

I think in general the quality of discussion has plummeted the last few years. It's no secret. I know we can have memes and all but at least 2010ish people actually bothered to explain their thoughts instead of just blurting out some shitpost that doesn't inform on the topic. Like today it's 90% shitposting on a very basic level that's not even funny and the rest is somewhat discussion.
