That song was so terrible until Kendrick stepped up, and I think Kendrick is pretty damn over rated. And I say that as a fan.

You could maybe argue they have better beats on their tracks. As far as lyrically? Hell no.

Not only do they have better beats but their flow is way better than Kendrick Lamar's. Drake can sing and rap. I dont know if you heard Asap Rocky's new album but he had multiple flows and they all were good. Kendrick Lamar sounds the same on every **** song. I get he is lyrical but he is just too boring for me to listen to. If i want to listen to lyrical rap music i listen to Lupe

The only thing ASAP Rocky has over Kendrick is that he has better taste in beats than Kendrick, the beats on ASAP are mad quality which is the main reason people actually listen to him

And that's your taste. I don't really care for much Lupe because he preaches to much. You can be lyrical without preaching.

You must be confusing Kendrick with J Cole, how the hell does he Kendrick have the same flow on every song :| but I'm not here to debate/argue with anybody. He pretty much said everything there is to say on that verse.

I feel like you just might be into flow, but if you're going to argue that Drake is "talented" you just don't get what talent is. His rhymes are wack, he puts no effort, no feeling,  no nothing in his music. He can sing? Yeah with a hella amount of auto tune, pitch correction, eq tweaking and more. He's dirt live too. Asap Rocky has a couple decent flows and thats true but hes not really a great lyricist either.

Kendrick might not be for you, but don't discredit him as an artist. He's a passionate lyricist who pours his soul into his writing and if you cant hear that and appreciate it, then i just dont know what to say.

Then im guessing you don't know much about the actual musical theory behind singing. Drake is not a trained singer (even though he's working on it), and currently his singing ability is very rough.

That is really bad. He is not a singer, at least not without effects.

Yeah that was pretty dope, but he didn't really diss anybody. I am not saying it isn't a hard verse, it definitely is, but there were absolutely zero disses in it.

I'm just glad he gave Em and especially Andre 3000 the props they deserve. Everyone stay slippin' and leave them off the G.O.A.T list like they aren't better than the people normally mentioned.

Best thing about this is that he's from Cali yet proclaiming himself king of NY. :shock: :D

Can't wait to hear the other rapper's replies.

And for those who've yet to realize, he isn't dissing anybody, just merely telling them to step their game up. Friendly competition.

Thank you, someone else who actually listened to what he said.

Nobody said he dissed anybody, he's simply asking for more competition. If anybody has a right to feel 'dissed' it would be the "new **** just new ****, don't get involved". Somebody should be feeling some kind of way about that line.

Ugh For the life of me I couldn't understand why so many reviews praised that Skrillex track, I thought it was an abomination. It's the complete opposite of what I want when I listen to ASAP Rocky
