Lupe Fiasco speaks on beef with Kendrick Lamar

I don't get the argument about if Kendrick could compete in the early 90's. He would have been a top artist. Maybe not a mega star because Pac and snoop had that locked for the West. But he would have made noise. Kendrick speaks on multiple topics, has bars and flow. I don't know how you could compare a rapper from the 80's to rappers now. Flows, production, styles, culture, and the world changed multiple times over. It actually wouldn't be fair to some of the 80's rappers. The complaint I here from people who don't rock with Kendrick is because they don't like his voice. I can rock with that reason.

Drop some hot Kendrick bar? I mean those

:wdf2:
type bars.

Never made the above face listening to Kendrick.

So you talking bout 2 liner bar with a metaphors. Like a big l, Cassidy, or any other rapper that did a lot of punch lines. Naw, Kendrick doesn't have any stand outs like that. But he makes complete bodies of work on good productions. Great concept songs. His story telling abilities are superb. Talks about multiple topics. That is why he is a heavy weight. I'm not taking anything from Lupe. I like him. Haven't heard all his albums but I have the first 2.

Take big and Pac for example. I'm not comparing big and Pac to Lupe and Kendrick. Big had better punch lines and metaphors and had great story telling abilities. Pac made better content. By content, his topics touched on a lot of different things and it touched people differently. And I like biggie better than Pac but I like both.
 
Lupe can rhyme I'll give him that but buddy quit rap to be a samurai. He's the Jack Sparrow of nerd nigga rap....... FOH b

Kendrick b has maybe 3 or 4 songs solo I'll hit play on. His joints with Ab Soul back in the day is my shit tho.

Both of these niggas are overrated and goofy niggas hero's.

Thank you, Kendrick is a great artist not a elite MC.

What is your definition of an MC? He is a master of ceremony. He is a lyricists. His impact is huge. He won a Pulitzer prize. His words has meaning. So, if you don't have out of this world metaphors and similes and doesn't make you an MC? His words have meaning. He delivers messages. Your opinion but I just don't get your definition of an MC.

Imo he's an above average rapper with a good message and listenable music
