First Time Hearing Kendrick Lamar & J Cole - Black Friday 

🤤

Me too!! Kendrick is has some of all of the Greats!! including Andre 3000! Yes, he is the goat. I have cried off of any other rappers music except Kendrick, Pac and Nas!!

@@juanitakelley8877 no cap, andre is one of the greatest, I didn't ever get into his music till long after everything.

Weezy>

Exactly they’re trippin for choosing j cole lol

@@Dathockeyguy nah J Cole punched lyrically way harder than kendrick Kendrick had the better wordplay, Flow, energy/delivery It depends on how you rate lyrical rap. But if punchlines are what you value then j Cole hit way harder than kendrick You aren't wrong for saying either of them outdid each other. J Cole just has colder punchlines than kendrick

I will take j cole over kendrick any time but this one kendrick went way harder than cole

Hahaha exactly don't know what they were hearing Im a big cole fan but Kendrick ate here tbf

@@komengovindaraj5310 again j Cole punched above kendrick lyrically They just place lyrics above all else and they aren't wrong for that But k dot killed the wordplay/flow and delivery It's a bit subjective who won. Cole arguably had a better worse if we go on lyrics alone

You know they don't normally catch bars lol

@@ILLWill1027 lmfao For real though

Tbh. Idk how they thought J Cole won this one lol. He was great but Kendrick was on a whole other stratosphere 🔥🔥🔥🔥

‘But’ he made a dope song?

frrrr kendrick absolutely destroyed that beat

Smoked? Yall be going to far. Its a toss up

@@DesignzRUs definitely didn’t smoke but I think Kendrick had more depth in his lyrics

@@Kickinthescience way more depth. Kendrick just has more layers to his music. I listen to j Cole alot more than Kendrick but I think Cole is a pretty simplistic rapper.

Cole got smoked

@Aronzzi who’s a Kendrick fan boy? I actually prefer Cole to Kendrick (musically) but Cole isn’t even in Kendricks league when it comes to lyricism. Cole is very good with the rhyme schemes and delivery but apart from that what can he fuck with Kendrick on? Bars? No. Storytelling? No. Flow? No. Albums? No. Metaphors? No. Kendrick is just a better rapper overall. Cole is pretty simplistic for the most part, his music is alot easier to understand than Kendricks which is one of the reasons I prefer to just casually listen to Cole than Kendrick but if I’m wanting to hear some lyrical, lyrical witty shit it’s Kendrick all day.

I try to explain this to people way too often lol

Riiiight!! Same. But after you go back and check out the lyrics you be like dam!! I love them both but Kendrick is my favorite.

To be fair, you have to have a very high IQ to understand Kendrick and Lamar. The lyricism is extremely subtle, and without a solid grasp of theoretical physics most of the bars will go over a typical listeners head. There's also Lamar’s nihilistic outlook, which is deftly woven into his characterisation- his personal philosophy draws heavily from Narodnaya Volya literature, for instance. The fans understand this stuff; they have the intellectual capacity to truly appreciate the depths of these bars, to realise that they're not just funny- they say something deep about LIFE. As a consequence people who dislike Kendrick truly ARE idiots- of course they wouldn't appreciate, for instance, the humour in Lamar’s existential catchphrase "Yak YaK Yak Yak," which itself is a cryptic reference to Turgenev's Russian epic Fathers and Sons. I'm smirking right now just imagining one of those addlepated simpletons scratching their heads in confusion as Lamar’s genius wit unfolds itself on their playlists. What fools.. how I pity them. 😂 And yes, by the way, i DO have a Kendrick tattoo. And no, you cannot see it. It's for the ladies' eyes only- and even then they have to demonstrate that they're within 5 IQ points of my own (preferably lower) beforehand. Nothin personnel kid 😎

Yea. Most ppl have simple comprehension skills and Kendrick's bars and delivery is too complex for them. They prefer a better beat and more relatable lyrics which J Cole has

@@leonthethird7494 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Because they didn't understand anything K dot Said cos his words are difficult to comprehend

fr

yea but i think cole closed the gap and might’ve passed him over the last 3yrs

@@timelessiq-789 Hell no

Cole is way better than Kendrick currently. If they did a collab today Cole easily washes

@@timelessiq-789 passed Kendrick fuck no

@@ayevisualz8726 personal opinion.

Faks

Facts the way he was pronouncing words to make them rhyme reminds me of Em

yall eminem fans are so 1 track minded not everything is about eminem

@@zaidm4586 get washed fool

Strongly disagree

I think this is one of those things where your favorite from this will depend on what style you like. Kendrick came hard with the LA ruthlessness and J Cole added an element of soul that is unique to rappers from the eastern south. I love em both, and Ive heard this song many times and I still cant decide what I like more because it keeps changing per my mood.

Naaaa it wasn’t 50/50 lool🤣🤣

@@hatakeanime1254 it was. Kendrick fans don't wanna hear that people may have another opinion 😴😪

@@noblameyt8416 nah it wasn't lmao. Love both, but kendrick slaughtered it while cole did really good. Kendrick was better than cole on his own beat, but cole was not better than kendrick on the alright beat.

YES they need to hear King Los!!!

100000%

Yes!!

Yessir!!!

Jesus Christ man no shit!!!!!! I’ve been spamming the hell out of these guys. I know they won’t be sorry after 2 bars .

dope ass beat and flow

They ain’t ready for that bruh.

😮‍💨🔥🔥

Yes!!

I bump that album faithfully

its in with the illmatics, as one of the greatest rap albums of all time so yeah for sure it is. Perosnally I say GKMC just cuz it so listenable and it just has the vibe that you can be dropped now and still be so so amazing but its going to be a DECADE since it dropped in October (yes, it gonna be 10 years old) but i know objectively it is TPAB

@@chrisb.heckons637TPAB gets hyped up by liberals because it says what they like to hear politically

@@chrisb.heckons637In reality its overrated

I think every hip hop fan prays for the day they drop a Collab project

Ong bro, it aint no competition its just to push eachother further, if they drop a suprise collab album I'd go crazy. Even if they scrapped it I feel like they finna do ir for the cutlure fuck the people of the internet.🙏

That shit never gon drop 😂

@mjnoah Team USA???

my fuckin dream

You need to hear lyrical Joe 5th August 5 and Bar code 2 and you will change your mind.

@@archito4real What LJ dey do for here

Wayne

Kendrick called Wayne the greatest

If you think j Cole tried to "battle" Kendrick on this you know nothing about either rapper... Cole has better albums, better singles, and is literally a staple in his community while Kendrick is nowhere to be seen and drops only when people talk shit about him not dropping.

I like that

You need to Hear Lyrical Joe 5th August 5 song and you will have a change of mind. Lyrical Joe is a combination of all the goats 🐐

They definitely are the top two. I would say K dot is number one, Cole not far behind

Oh easily

Ya Cole gives more surface level bars that are easier to digest especially on first listen that’s why people who don’t dive deeper into what their saying generally like him and his verse more

@@kyledowd16 sometimes less is more

They both did great but I don't ever go back to Kendricks verse to listen. Cole is just too real

@@prestonellebracht1200 kendrick's verse is the verse I go too.

You’re bugging Kendrick didn’t say anything in that verse

@@prestonellebracht1200 Cole just has more quotables cuz they’re clever but base level punch lines, Kendrick makes u think, better bars and better flows, Kendrick won pretty easily

@@irGuilty or… have u considered… ur just too dumb to understand what he’s saying?

What he said^^

@@peonio1354 "nothing was the same when Kendrick dropped control " a bunch of sensitive ass rappers tucked in pajama clothes "

yessir when he dissed Drake lol

Kendrick snapped on that cypher

😂😂😂 nah it’s a 2-1 debatable

Nowadays Cole is miles ahead of Kendricks "woke" rap. lmao

@@joshuagill7347 Miles?! I mean within arm’s length😆🤣. These 2 legends are bringing heat every time they release music🔥🔥

I second this

Same I’m ready for the pauses

Hey that’s a pretty fun fact

Bonfine 🔥

Exactly
