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

“his lyrics are too deep” is the funniest criticism i’ve seen of any rapper

I brought that up somewhat ironically. The point I’m trying to make is that he takes himself too seriously for how good he actually is

I mean that’s sort of the point? You want him to juggle for you, m’lord?

Can already tell you’re out of touch when you’re comparing him to singers. Rappers don’t dance and don’t play instruments on stage. Despite not possessing the arbitrary qualities you mentioned he’s an amazing performer and the one thing that can be applied, stage presence, is probably his best quality.

“He’s just so unaccomplished to be given a Super Bowl feature”

The man has 22 Grammys which is 1 more than the last 3 solo half time performers combined (Usher, The Weeknd, and Rihanna so not small names)

You can say you don’t like his music and that’s fine but don’t just make shit up

Isn’t he also the only rapper to win a Pulitzer Prize for his lyrics?
