YEAAAHHH BRO. I WANT Him to post this song on his channel. Don't say shit. Just drop this. So Drake lackies can learn that we we been kicking ass for years now. Yes we rose like thissss
Right? Dudes a legend. I remember a discussion back around 10 years ago on Reddit where a bunch of people were talking about how Kendrick was itching to destroy another rapper. Drake gave him the fuel for the fire and the rest was history. Now we look back and can see he was burning the whole time.
@@swansonmeal7 Agreed! One for the musicality/haunting, beautiful meaning, one for the staggeringly impossible rhythm and technique. Dying of thirst vs. dying for air (because, DAMN)
People who said they didn’t think he was going to reply to the disses because he’s not the type to beef, y’all really don’t know this version of Kendrick
They’re casuals. Kendrick dropped Control and routinely swung his shit at other rappers every album release. Even MMTBS had features where he let everyone know. Smokin on yo top 5 2night.
My favorite moment of that came after Kendrick. "King Kendrick or Jermain Cole. Or are your saying King Wretched and Jermain's cold. I'm tryna lay the blueprint and give you reasonable doubt, so when you watch the throne niggas see me change clothes"- Wretch 32
This was the first song I ever heard from dot, didn't even know who this man was before this song dropped, instantly one of my top 5 rappers. 12 years later he's the best rapper doing it.
Kendrick has been standing on business since his Control verse 11 years & honestly how can anyone think they have any kind of a chance against a Pulitzer Prize winning battle lyricist from Compton, California? Dude's a prophet as far as I'm concerned.
@@deepaparakkal4241this aged well and stands the test of time? It’s not a goat level classic, however it’s fair to say this is one of Kendrick’s early classics that will live on as long as Kendrick’s name. And that’s for a pretty fuckin long time so I think it’s fair to say this is a classic.
rigamortis Rigor mortis is one of the recognizable signs of death, caused by chemical changes in the muscles after death, causing the limbs of the corpse to become stiff and difficult to move or manipulate. cool, helped me understand the song more
Aubrey "Drake" Graham 1986 - 2024 RIP 😢 edit: Hospitalized: Tuesday 4/30 9 AM PDT Time of death: Friday 5/3 6:16 AM PDT edit: nah after meet the Grahams, I'm fuckin dead
@@moni_artist its more than cole and kendrick i dont even like cole. you had danny brown, schoolboy q, asap rocky, asap ferg, big krit, freddie gibbs, meek mill, young thug, vince staples, earl sweatshirt, tyler the creator, spaceghostpurrp, future etc. getting their start and then you had kanye hitting his peak, killer mike and el-p emerging from the underground and forming run the jewels, drake was still putting out quality music back then, weird shit like death grips pushing it forward, it was legit an extremely exciting time in rap and no amount of 90s boom bap worship is gonna change that
I remember back in 2012 when K dots hype was skyrocketing, this is the song that convinced me he was not just some other rapper having a moment... never forget hearing it for the first time and my jaw hitting the floor when he goes in
I remember exactly where I was hearing this for the first time. My jaw was definitely stuck to the floor. Crazy how it doesn't seem to hit as hard anymore
This song is aging like fine wine Kendrick Lamar dun took off HAM ON THIS RIGHT HERE! a u t h e n t I c v i e w s dun took his career off 2 the next level fr fr no cap
Man i love when he speeds up near the end it's like building power for me he doesn't stop, whenever im at the gym and i listen to this i get so pump. Keep up the good work Kendrick your one the first rappers i've ever liked before i thought i didn't like rap music but you changed my mind with your music :) my first song i listen to was A.D.H.D then after that i had to have more from you.
The rhyme pattern's even better due to the fact that he's both technical and fast. I mean, seriously, I can't find any freakin' problem with him. Is he the best rapper ever? Lyrics, puns, double entendres, message, similes, metaphors, flow, rhythm, etc.
@@DaKilla331 quality > quantity, it’s better to release 4 albums in 12 years that will stand the test of time instead of pushing a trash album each year that people will forget about after a week
I remember hearing this when it came out and was just stunned. I don't think this was the first time I heard Kendrick but it was the first time I was like "yea this guy is gonna be a legend"
Love reading the comments of the people Hearing this for the first time. Now yall know why us Kendrick fans support him. Because he’s dropped nothing but fire since he came around. I heard this over a decade ago and I can still listen to it on repeat.this is a real artist
BlazenBanama well dont care if peeasants dont acknowledge what they know deep inside them. Messi is the GOAT. Gtfo and acknowledge both goats of the game.
