because he makes shit music

c'mon Yea Forums he just made a collab with dj khaled for money not because he thought it was a good idea

cos he hates white people.


and Yea Forums is 100% white + male + straight

Kendrick is none of those things. that's why they hate him. personally I think he's alright. Ye is better though.

Why should white people listen to an artist who hates them? Seems unhealthy

boring and shitty music

ayo pay reparshuns n shiet

because /mu is full of white teenagers/adolescents who are racists

>he hates white people

That's an exaggeration

> straight

stfu faggot

read my fucking comment retard.

sadly, this

he's two of those things and I'm pretty sure he doesn't hate white people

Because I FUCKING HATE YOU FUCKING BIG DICK BUT SHORT HEIGHT NIGGAS FUCK YOU STONE ROSES REUNION WHEN?

dude, he would shoot you in the head if he could. he despises you.

It's unhealthy to desperately attempt to ingratiate yourself to people who fundamentally hate you

I don't know if everyone is larping or all the soiboys are reporting in

mu is all edgy right-centrists who get butthurt over music that's critical of white people, even when it's moreso just critical of the current condition of America that favors white people and not the race themselves.

>but if I said the same thing about black people-

yeah, it'd sound racist, but that's because there's context to Kendricks music (growing up impoverished, family entwined with gangs, being back in America, balancing becoming a mainstream rapper with staying true to himself) that makes his views understandable. maybe not right, but understandable. some people probably don't like him just cause they don't like his music, but I think that's less than half of his detractors, on this board, anyways.

this

>kendrick is male and talk about my balls kinda straight
>"he's none of those things"

listening to music with opinions you disagree with is unequal to trying to ingratiate yourself into some group. some of my favorite bands, like bad brains and descendants, were pretty anti gay people, but I still listen to and enjoy them anyways. good music is good music, it doesn't matter who you are.

calm down fantano you dont need to pretend to be several different people to reinforce one opinion

Can anyone that collaborated with Taylor Swift really hate white people?

I would actually love this.Seriously, when the fuck are they reuniting?

Because:
1. Yea Forums is contrarian and this is a popular album
2. Yea Forums hates fantano and fantano gave it a 10
3. Half of Yea Forums are retards who dismiss any hip-hop records

Brainlets will try to tell you it's because Yea Forums is racist or some shit and this album hates white people

if that's true, it's not cause im white, it's cause im an asshole who goes on Yea Forums. if kendrick hated all whites then he would not be where he is today. sure, there's a large population of onions cuck race traitors or whatever who love him and hate white people, but I know plenty of people living in the midwest, in places where calling yourself a leftist is socially equivalent to committing murder, call kendrick one of their favorite rappers. kendrick definitely has a problem with white America, but it's (#)not all whites he has a grudge with.

First post was Fantano, second was Cal Chuchesta, third was a literal cantalope

this is actually the best answer. not all of Yea Forums is racist, jazz gets a lot of clout here.

nothing wrong with being a little racist

agreed. sometimes I b reading shit about imperialism in Africa and for brief second my mind is like "I mean, they were bringing new technology doe." just gotta repress those feelings and increase my onions intake.

collaborating with taylor swift would probably make me hate white people

it's not the "best" it's the only one that is not memeing

myman out here calling people basedboys in 2019

It's all so tiresome.

Not sure about straight

pardon?

Yup

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Fuck off to r/The_Donald

I actually agree with Fantano on TMS and hip hop is my most listened genre. not gonna say this album is totally garbage but it most definitely is not the masterpiece people are making it out to be. it's generic derivative jazz rap that only seeks to capitalize on popular trends.

can verify, I am not this guy and I was in that post

Until he explicitly disavows the Israelites, I have no reason top believe that his work is merely critical rather than hateful, and I have every reason to give it the least charitable of interpretations. Even then I could still appreciate thee work if I thought were of a sufficient quality (some of the older Amiri Baraka poems fit this bill, but then again, they are fundamentally different from pop music), but I don't think Kendrick ever really achieves it. The painfully contrived Tupac interview at the end of TPAB proves it better than anything else. Kendrick isn't capable of engaging with the hip hop itself on anything but the most superficial level, and superficiality seems to be his defining feature. Where the real depth on any issue begins, Kendrick's thoughts seem to end.

It also deoesn't help that leaning too heavily on jazz will always come off as corny at best.

checked but since when does your perceived intentions of an album make the music any worse

>myman out here calling people basedboys in 2019
fucking cringe

what the fuck does Israel have to do with this

I'm talking about the Black Hebrew Israelites, a cult whose rhetoric Kendrick has incorporated into his music.

See:
youtube.com/watch?v=EBdk5hDadYE

fax. Macbeth was written to please the king so Shakespeare could get money to do other shit, but its still a damn good play. same goes for music.

has nothing to do with that, it's about what it actually is. it just seems like a shallow person's attempt to be a conscious rapper, and the production isn't anything interesting or new. it's just empty music that only empty people could find profound.

why would he have to disavow this group he's probably never even heard of. also, he's a christian, and has stated so many times in his music. seems like a pretty big contradiction to being a Black Hebrew Israelite.

Alright but he still sucks though. Black whiner. At least be racist back

98% of blacks shot by police deserve it

>I'm not a politician, I'm not 'bout a religion
>I'm a Israelite, don't call me Black no mo'
>That word is only a color, it ain't facts no mo'
Yeah man, it's clear he's probably never heard of them.

he did it for the money but his fans wont address that

Because when you’re anonymous there’s no social pressure to say you like this album. If you asked these people the same question in person, almost everyone would say “yeah it’s alright” because there’s pressure to not look racist. But on here everyone can be honest, and everyone seems to kind of agree that it’s a kind of boring, pretentious album that was topical a couple years ago but has little replay value now.

you're quite an expert on somebody you don't like. find something better to do with your time. still, congrats on fishing out a lyric to disprove me.

gkmc is cool

more like 99%. only one that didn't i can think of is philandro castile, who was a lawful gun owner killed by a pussy.

i dont hate him, but he most definitely sold out after 2016.

I mean I'm not saying that what he says is super woke but kendrick uses metaphor to get at something way deeper than 99% of hip hop records or even albums as a whole. Even if you're not blown away by the message, you have to admit that the depth of storytelling, double entendre, and metaphor is pretty groundbreaking for hip hop as a genre. The degree of detail that hip hop allows him to tell it in also makes it a standout experience amongst all of music as a whole for me

It may not be super conscious stuff and honestly I think that people like kanye have tried to reach at deeper concepts but he's never really done it in a well thought out, developed, and eloquent way that kendrick does on TPAB. Idk what you really expect for "woke" like kenny is gonna hop on the beat next album and start rapping about the inflation of the holocaust and the legitimacy of Israel

I like listening to music, and I like understanding the things I listen to. That's all.

These racist undertones lmao

“Woah a black guy figured out how to use a metaphor!!! AOTY 10/10”

Kanye was doing it years prior

White people just only want to here “wahh being black is so hard” stuff from black people and not just life struggles

if you want a real answer it basically comes down to him being a hack;

the majority of his music is based upon brainlet progressive rhetoric that is rampant in poor black communities, police black brutality is a real and serious problem, the blacks prison population is a conspiracy, victim mentality and even embarrassing shit like afrocentrism. there is very little real, original or deep content in anything he has ever produced but if you already happen to be on the progressive koolaid then he may well come across as the next MLK.

he's the joe rogan's podcast of rap

>Even if you're not blown away by the message, you have to admit that the depth of storytelling, double entendre, and metaphor is pretty groundbreaking for hip hop as a genre.
id argue that there are no albums from any genre with as much depth to it then to pimp a butterfly, but thats only because the structure of hip hop allows it to truly be a form of poetic expression while other genres focus more on the melodic aspects which is where hip hop is headed now

>id argue that there are no albums from any genre with as much depth to it then to pimp a butterfly
Then explain its depth. As far as I can tell, the album only shows just how shallow the average hip hop fan really is.

>names one reason on why he doesnt like the artist
>WOAH WHY DO YOU EVEN CARE LMAO
cannot win with you retards

yeah this too
not what I was saying. its really an excellent use of metaphor with multiple meanings that's why it's pretty commonly taught in US high school English classes

he found specific lyrics and tied it all back to some cult, clearly the mans a bit of a conspiracy theorist

Kdot ain't male he's like 5,2.

and he defo ain't straight.

I mentioned a lyric that specifically references the theology of that cult. Hip Hop has been filled with references to them for decades (NOI, 5%ers, etc). You can't really understand the music if you don't understand the religious groups that inspired them.

Based.
Fuck niggers, fuck women, and fuck faggots.

everyone is racist against someone and youre a fucking liar if you think thats false

you just got your ass handed to you.
ive never seen someone so thoroughly BTFO so easily.

"Yah" is a good song btw

this

>Then explain its depth.
the concept, the multifaceted delivery of the themes presented with how his life changed with being famous, how times are changing being a black man in america, and how the themes of change and growth relates to hip hop is unprecedented in hip hop and doesn't have an equivalent in any other genre.

The fusion of genres, like funk, jazz, soul, and hiphop which have been done before with the likes of aceyalone, atcq, and very recently prior to TPAB with the ghostface/BBNG collab sour soul, really encapsulates in my opinion the idea of "no matter how different times become theres always a similar approach to the solution" which i think benefits one of the overrall themes of the album which is change and how it affects the individual. This album could've came out 10 years before and after its release and still would be regarded as a classic.

There's never been an album where there was an overarching poem or story reaching its ultimate conclusion at the end, there never was an approach to concept albums such as this. This is truly a standalone album regardless of the genre its in.The execution is unmatched.

>As far as I can tell, the album only shows just how shallow the average hip hop fan really is.
how?

>its really an excellent use of metaphor with multiple meanings that's why it's pretty commonly taught in US high school English classes
kendrick really resembles andre 3000

YAH. is an excellent follow-up to DNA.

>There's never been an album where there was an overarching poem or story reaching its ultimate conclusion at the end, there never was an approach to concept albums such as this. This is truly a standalone album regardless of the genre its in.The execution is unmatched.

pink floyd would like to have word with you

that album starts really strong but i dont remember much after a certain point.
DNA is a great song too.

>pink floyd
i kinda agree but not to the extent kendrick has gone with the concept and the cohesiveness of the concept throughout the album

i feel like the three songs following YAH. are weak, but the three songs after those are am improvement. GOD. is worse. the last two tracks are good

the Wall is a complete narrative tho

Taylor Swift is a white hating dyke.

Because it's SHIT! Just like you and all the other shit you like and the other idiots on this board like. Now, fuck off back to your hole.

Bad example. His collaboration with U2, one of the whitest bands of all time, is what you wanted to bring up

better than being a tranny lmao

lmao wtf was that even
kendrick working with u2 of all artists

It was the best song on DAMN.

But he takes an extremely uncritical approach to it, and that ultimately shows (this can be seen most clearly in his extremely contrived Tupac interview) his lack of depth, this lack of a critical eye is also clear when he discusses politics.Sure he confronts criticism thrown at the black community, but he does so with so little depth that its ultimately meaningless. I think part of the problem is that narratives of oppressed people are popular at the moment when there is nothing inherently deep about them. People just like to hear their political beliefs expressed artistically, and will celebrate the one who does it.

>There's never been an album where there was an overarching poem or story reaching its ultimate conclusion at the end, there never was an approach to concept albums such as this. This is truly a standalone album regardless of the genre its in.The execution is unmatched.
There are hundreds of concept albums. If you're not lying, you're incredibly ignorant if the history of popular music and probably music in general. I think the latter is true of most hip hop fans, and it is the source of their ignorance. Also, that this narrative culminates the in the the silliest conclusion to any serious album doesn't really help its case.

To be fair damn was damn eeehhhhh

What fucking trash you people are! LOL....it's unreal.

imagine actually being a shitskin

imagine having sex, oh wait

I don't fuck nonwhites
