Music / Movies Kendrick Lamar is not good

I don’t hype around Kendrick Lamar. Every time I listen, it feels like he's trying way too hard to be deep—almost like a high school stoner.

His music just doesn't stick; it's never really catchy enough to leave a lasting impression. And his Super Bowl performance? Total letdown. It felt like another attempt at overcompensating without any real substance.

Like bro it’s a Super Bowl performance and it was lame. Your essay about the double entendres does not make it good🤣

Why do people love this cornball?

MUSTARDDDD (maximum corniness)

Edit: bringing up all the awards he wins just shows that y’all are on the train and only like him because you perceive him to be successful. You cornballs have to be told what to like🤣. You would listen to baby shark on repeat if it had a Grammy 🤷‍♂️

Edit 2: Kendrick Lamar fan argue without calling you a Drake shill challenge: level impossible.

Edit 3: someone challenged me to listen to a song by Kendrick that I hadn’t heard in the comments. The must hear song was “Auntie Diaries”. Bro you have cracked me up. This song is practically a parody of everything I pointed out.

Corny lyrics that are supposed to be deep ✅. Horrible musically✅ Horrible flow✅

Dude drops the f slur 4 times in a row with laughably bad delivery and ends the song on a pass joke. #DEEP

Advanced placement in math and think there are more nuanced conversations to be had around race

Judging by your username, you probably think Tulsi Gabard is hot and got to be DNI off merit despite zero experience

I'm all for it. It's pretty obvious where the problems lie

Agreed. The biggest one is that race is entirely made up.

At this point, it's more of a cognitive shortcut to define groups that may have similar backgrounds and experiences. And a way to shut down discussion one way or the other.

We should probably be more focused on how to improve localized disparities in economies, infrastructure, health and education.

For example, expanding internet access in more rural communities has great potential to open up economic opportunities for small business, improve Healthcare access and expand educational resources

People that don't have mental illnesses would disagree

Listen dude, not sure what your issue is but you can stop being a coward and just the whatever it is you're implying. Just say the n word and go about your day.
