FEATURED Who You Got: Drake, Kendrick or Cole?

[BlackRain]

Nah fuck that. People weren't expected the GNX album, its the Superbowl. Really don't care what artist it is, you gotta play your hits or just don't do it.

Humble is his biggest single and he did that. He did play his hits

 

[MoodGawd]

I respectfully disagree

This to me is like saying you only can boycott if it's on a Tuesday cause the weekends are too inconvenient

To me the analogy is more like you wouldnt display the mona lisa at mcdonalds.

 

[Natural Born Sinners]

Phenomenal for their core fans... There's always going to be people who hate. Two sides to every coin

Agree to two sides to every coin. However, their catalog fits the Super Bowl stage more than Kdot’s. They have more SMASH hit records. Does not mean they are better rappers and performance. But their music would fit that stage better

 

[Duwop]

Wait yall are being serious with these breakdowns of the performance?

I've said several times no deep dive or breakdown is needed.

He's an artist. And wanted to express himself artistically. Either you liked it or you didn't. I don't need an explanation but I do think it was dope he tried to do something creative. Applauding and respecting the effort doesn't require all this scrutiny. It's over kill.

If Kendrick did

Alright
Humble
DNA
Swimming Pools
All the Stars

and all his other past hits one would could make the same argument.

Their catalog is still subject to their performance.

Here you go using white supremacy dog whistles.

But I challenge you and others to actually try and expand your thinking about art and symbolisms within it. If you do that and still come out with, it's not for me, then you've at least educated yourself and decided it wasn't for you vs just off the rip "the shit ain't that deep" or " y'all glazing Kendrick" , etc..

Let's not lose sight that me personally, I'm not even a fan of the nigga but I have gained an appreciation for how he creates his art. I still don't like Mr morale. I listened to it, understood his mission and decided it wasn't for me. It's really not that hard

Why you think the niggas who didn't like it didnt understand it? Lmao why can't it just be that they expected a more hype performance with a different set list?

He chose not to play the hits and thats cool but don't be mad when niggas choose to say that shit was butt cause It's their opinion.

Exactly

True. But is the Super Bowl, most people lip sync anyways. I think it would be more entertaining than what Kdot did, at least to the masses. I liked what Kendrick did. It fits him and the type of artist he is. He is unorthodox and you never know which way he gon go

Theres not liking the performance and then theres trolling / badgering people who did like it. Everyone in here who didnt like it has been forcing their opinion onto others and trying to do some pseudo psycho analysis that isnt necessary

This here. Some people just want to be entertained with hit records

Define serious?

Acknowledging what him and his camp have said about it or people just over analyzing obvious things

 

[StringerBell]

 

[Eyerone]

For the record, I thought the performance was cool and on par with most of his major televised performances.


Having the opportunity to perform a diss record at the fuckin Super Bowl is fan fuckin tastic.

Glad he did it.

I think it was fitting for BHM under Trump's presidency. Very politically charged. Very black.. Very necessary, you don't even need to know what was going on to know it was satirical
. Shit was bold and dope imo. First sitting president at the Superbowl and he got to see a bunch of niggaz making a mockery of America.

People over analyzing the shit and being mad weird with it.


I understand that it’s art and it’s meant to be interpreted however you interpret it but god damn lol. You’d think he was rapping like Lupe by the way people be breaking shit down.

HIP HOP!!!

A lot of debating going on in here, but one fact remains...

Let me reiterate... good fight, good night.
