You know lots of people asking for an Eminem feature on Kendrick's new album
Last thing I want is to hear a Kendrick album ruined by a middle aged man yelling in my ear about anal rape, beating a woman, and corny punchlines wrapped up with name drops and a varied flow.
 
Guess I'll formally introduce myself.

1. Pick a Coast to rep - West
2. What's your favorite subgenre of rap? - WC Gansta / G Funk
3. Favorite Artists - Kendrick / Kanye / Outkast / Death Grips / MF Doom
4. Favorite Artists Outside of Hip-Hop - My Bloody Valentine / Cocteau Twins / New Order / DIIV / Frank Ocean
5. What was your hip-hop AOTY last year? What's your current hip-hop AOTY? - Last year was Tribe, don't have one yet this year, still need to listen to Raekwon's new album.
6. What are you listening to right now? – Forever Changes by Love, Crooked Rain Crooked Rain by Pavement.
7. What's something you like that you might consider a guilty pleasure? What's something you haven't listened to that you think a hip-hop aficionado might give you shit for? - Haven't listened to a lot of Jay Z. Guilty pleasure is probably Odd Future.
8. Rank a Random Rapper's Discography (Pick Someone With > 3 Albums) Mm... Food > Madvillainy > Operation Doomsday > Born Like This

I wish Eminem would stop rapping as if he's 20 and not a 40 year old grown ass man with an 18 year old daughter while rappin bout the same shit he's been doing for 20 years.
Already confirmed fake by Cardo. Said whoever made that must think Kendrick is still in 2015.

Speaking of Kendrick's album, one of the producers of the Heart Pt.4 said that the albums sounds like Memphis meets L.A meets some crazy shit. Whatever that means.
Well um...I'm ready

"The album will consist of music" Is basically what I get whenever I see people hyping up albums in this way.

12 days folks

I feel like he could make some great shit if he got some help and guidance, but it will never happen
 
Syk Sense(produced on The Heart pt 4, Rambo for Bryson Tiller, 6 God & Know Yourself for Drake)on the beats on Kendrick's new album


"I got some homies on there that produce some crazy shit, some of the heardest shit I've ever heard,"

"Got some pretty heavy new guys on there that are gonna make names for themselves"

"it's not like the jazzy sound you think, it's like..Memphis....like, I don't know what to call it"

*when asked if it sounds similiar to untitled 07(levitate)*

"It's similar, but on some different shit, don't know how to describe it"

dude sounds very impressed to say the least.

Also, Justin Hunt of HipHopDX said the production leans more commercial and there's a MikeWillMadeIt track named 'DNA' on it.

Part of it is pettiness, that the much better group, 8Ball & MJG, didn't make it big outside of the region. The other part is not liking any of their music. They won a fucking Grammy for some shit.

Eightball & MJB made it pretty big outside of Memphis; as did Eightball on his own.

You had to be around to understand some of those guys, If i recall you are under 20 right? So it will be harder to understand what makes these guys great.

Music doesn't exist in a time capsule though, if your music is only seen as great because of the time period, then it ain't great

That's cool. Although I know kids (13 year old to teens) that love most of those guys mentioned.

Good for them, I find Nas to be a trash rapper who has fucked up many a good beat, Common just isn't good, Tupac is aight but people only know five Tupac songs and I will not proclaim someone GOAT because of potential, Biggie is the same, Eminem...yall know, and Three Six.

Also not a Big Daddy Kane fan but eh

Who else people like who I can shit on?
The highlight of Thundercat's career and skill was backing Flying Lotus on all of his projects, his solo projects are overrated.

Did I do that right?

Well I mean, you're wrong so no.

I don't say any of my shit as a hot take, it's genuine. The only people I go out of my way to say fuck them is Jermaine and Nas. And Common but that's because I hate his acting more than anything.

LOL; you weren't even born when Tupac had his first #1 single. People know 5 of his songs? What people?

Average people, because what I've learned by talking to people around in the 90s, ain't a single motherfucker listen to a full Tupac album.

Dear Mama
Changes
Hail Mary
California Love
All Eyez On Me

Now of course people who actually listen to hip hop can name more but uh...you'd have a better chance finding someone who has heard his greatest hits than anything close to a full album.

How Do You Want it was #1 on Billboard for 2 weeks; you think people from the 90s don't know that song? Keep Ya Head Up was a huge hit, as was I get around. bigger hits than the songs you listed too (other than California Love/Dear Mamma.)

You literally don't know what you are talking about; Tupac was played endlessly all over the country in the late 90s; every corny frat boy party had his double album on rotation with little white girls rapping every lyric.

And even then; why does it matter what average people know?

Did you just say you are a Thundercat fan?

Average person: Who the fuck is Thundercat?

Okay, I ain't comparing Thundercat and Tupac tho.

I mentioned something I've encountered by talking to niggas who lived in the 90s, talking to Tupac fans, ain't pullin shit but if you wanna be upset be upset
