If Kendrick is the modern day tupac, who's Biggie?
Me desu.
>>63139442
Meghan Trainor
Joey Badass
a far more talented rapper
>>63139471
this
>>63139442
Big Narstie.
>>63139442
drizzy
MF DOOM
>>63139442
Tupac was more of a rapper for the people mixed with some thug stuff, Kendrick raps for himself and talks about his own issues more
>>63139477
>mfw
MC Ride
>>63139442
Action Bronson because muh diversity
>>63139499
i'd actually agree with this because the comparison works
tupac had way more political lyrics but biggie had better flow and was better at rapping in general
kendrick and DOOM are both better than tupac and (maybe) biggie tho
When will you faggots stop sucking his dick. Hes good but hes not Tupac good. He also isnt the Tupac of this generation, hes the Kendrick Lamar of this generation.
>>63139552
no one ever said tupac or kendrick was even good, we're just trying to find our modern time biggie
>>63139544
I honestly can't see anyone be better than biggie, 2 albums and he's the GOAT. Gone way too soon.
the most talented rapper (as far as flow and lyrics) that's also from Brooklyn would have to be Joey Bada$$
these comparisons are always going to be terrible and way off but
>popular contemporary of kendrick's who's known less for the socially conscious/interesting lyricism that kendrick showcases and more for his unique and compelling flow, image and general style
sounds like young thug to me
>>63139584
MF DOOM is waaay better than Biggie. Biggie's still good though.
>>63139552
>Hes good but hes not Tupac good.
He's literally miles better.
>He also isnt the Tupac of this generation, hes the Kendrick Lamar of this generation.
True
>>63139442
Kendrick is more a modern Nas than anything
>inb4 Nas is still making music
Let's not kid ourselves
>>63139544
DOOM is old and doesn't even fucking put out music anymore
he's kept two projects in limbo for almost a decade because he doesn't feel like it
>>63139442
DOOM or Killer Mike, if we're talking about body mass
>>63139696
dude's just riding a boat and living it up, I do hope he makes another LP tho.
>>63139499
>>63139544
>>63139674
>>63139696
>>63139698
damn, the amount of respect /mu/ holds for DOOM.
As much as I like Biggie and Pac, I just can't see how they compare to even half the rappers in the game right now.
The great thing about music is that guys like that set a baseline that newer generations build on. They might have been great in their day but rapper like K.Dot, Open Mike Eagle, DOOM, Pusha T etc are better because they have the advantage of growing up with those guys and being influenced by them.
Why live in the past when it prevents progression?
>>63139499
In terms of voice It's this.
However no-one can even touch biggie's rapping abilities and It's probably gonna stay like that for another 20 years or so
>>63139798
I feel like DOOM was the needle in the hay stack that could be on Biggie's level in terms of flow and voice. Biggie's flow is better, but DOOM has his own unique flow which is incomparable.
>>63139756
i don't idolize him like every other guy but i do think he's the closest to biggie, but as >>63139696 says DOOM released his best material 12 years ago
>>63139842
>released his best material 12 years ago
>born like this was released in 2009
that doesn't add up anon.
>>63139842
yeah, but you still write the man's name in all caps which shows a somewhat ounce of respect. A lot of /mu/ does idolize him though.
kdot is a far better rapper than kendrick
>>63139467
this
>>63139881
takin' em to school
>>63139544
Except DOOM is actually from the same era as Biggie
>>63139467
first thing that popped into my head tbqhwu
Kanye = Modern Pac
Kendrick = Modern Nas
Drake = Modern Biggie
>>63139655
That's reasonable
Pac - Kendrick
Biggie - Thugger
Jay Z - Drake
Nas - J. Cole
>>63139510
>big
>black
>does the rap thing
he's perfect for the role desu
>>63139460
underrated
>>63140774
best post so far
>>63139442
>Modern Day
The 90s wasnt that long ago was it?
>>63139677
But Nas never reached the worldwide and commercial heights of Kendrick, also only illmatic is actually good
>>63141077
I disagree. This is now a concrete term: vintage 90s apparel
Killer Mike, he's even endorsed by Kendrick
this pre much /mu/
>>63140774
Also
Wu-Tang - Odd Future
ATCQ and Mobb Deep - Beast Coast
MF DOOM - Lil Ugly Mane
>ctrl f
>mc ride
im obviously late to the meme party
>>63139477
ALL OVER YOUR NYEEEEEEHHHHHH
>>63139502
Yeah Kendrick is much more "conscious" than Pac ever was. I don't get the constant comparisons.
I mean I know Kendrick cites 2Pac as his inspiration a lot but they are 2 very different artists in terms of content matter.
>>63139442
Kendrick can actually rap... tupac couldn't
>>63141515
>mum i made a trolley post xD
KANYE
>>63140774
>Biggie - Thugger
>Jay Z - Drake
>Nas - J. Cole
not a single one of these makes sense senpai
>>63139612
they shouldn't let people like you have internet.
Mac Miller
>>63139674
boy you need to wash your mouth with soap
>>63140739
kys
>>63141588
biggie and thugger both have unique and interesting flows and delivery styles
hov and drake are both distinctly above average lyricists with excellent business sense
cole and nas is a pretty shit comparison though
>>63139677
>didnt listen to god's son
People actually begun to talk about YT..
>>63139552
Tupac wasnt even that great
>>63141565
>don't listen to the music, my friends say he is an icon, so he is.
>>63141762
you still talking trash?
just neck urself famiglia
