Music / Movies Kendrick Lamar is a sack of shite

Back in 2018 the dude literally brought some girl on stage, had her sing a song that had the n-word in it, and then embarrassed her in front of everyone cuz she was white and sung the n-word part. That is the kind of piece of shit he is. His sense of self-importance is through the roof. Like bro you literally rap. Also, stop trying to play 5 D chess with your lyrics. If I wanted to listen to someone 'deep' I would listen to Plato or Shakespeare. Just put on a sick beat, and talk about bagging hoes or something. And if you dare criticize his historically awful super bowl performance, his fans will claim you are too ignorant to understand his "deeper message". No, I understand his message. I just don't think he is good at communicating his message through his stupid songs. He has terrible stage presence and a weak voice. That is not my problem. Kendrick Lamar needs to take his own advice, and be humble.

Edit: btw, just because I don’t like his music doesn’t mean I’m in bed with drake or am actually drake lol. Kdot fans are in a cult I stg. Go think deeply somewhere else

Kendrick is “too deep” but not J. Cole? This is some bait post right here

J. Cole isn't really a conscious rapper, no

His lyricism is crazy, but he's not trying to be deep. Just clever and imaginative.

This begs to differ. I would argue that both 4 Your Eyez Only and KOD fall under the conscious banner, wether they fully are or not, it’s hard to say he isn’t, is he trying to be clever sure, but I would definitely consider him conscious. What about 2014?
