A footnote is harsh but yeah Kendrick the GOAT.tragabigzanda wrote:J. Cole will never win. He'll be a footnote in 20 years and Lamar will remain in the GOAT conversation for like a hundred years.

Re: Kendrick Lamar is better than Soundgarden
But still 7 Minute Drill was pretty good. Felt more like a warning than an all-out diss track.

Re: Kendrick Lamar is better than Soundgarden
Agreed. I've been of, if not the biggest Kendrick stans on this board for a long time. But I really like J Cole, too. Kinda wish Kendrick had only gone at Drake.tragabigzanda wrote:Cole is certainly a very talented lyricist/rapper. I just don't think he has the consistency of quality -- specifically the beats, and the meta-layers of self-referential lyrics offered by Kendrick -- to be even remotely in the conversation for GOAT. Kenrick won the Pulitzer!

Re: Kendrick Lamar is better than Soundgarden
J Cole said his response was lame and he don't want to battle Kendrick. If Kendrick wants to stay stuff then he can say it. So I guess we're left with Kendrick vs. Drake now.

Re: Kendrick Lamar is better than Soundgarden
My 23 year old son has been a J Cole fan for years. Pretty sure he's his fave rapper of all time. I though have no dog in this fight, just putting that perspective out there is all.
I did however buy him tickets to see Kendrick when he came through Perth and he loved the show for real. But he's still a J Cole guy.

Re: Kendrick Lamar is better than Soundgarden
The whole 1st season of Cole Cuchna's "Dissect" podcast was a deep dive into "To Pimp A Butterfly" it is pretty great.
