its funny how people said kendrick doesnt put out much music, then when he started putting out bangers people started saying he is being overplayed
"you cant please everybody "

[CanceIed]

To say Drake got “JaRuled” it’s an insult to JaRule at this point. Atleast Ja took his L like a man and kept it moving. Drake going out sad 🤦🏽‍♂️

[JosephLinsalata]

as a Californian and SoCal Native, I can confirm the city hasn't been this celebratory and proud in YEARS. Took a lot of hits with Nipsey, Kobe, Etc. Thriving now. Thanks, Kenny

“He’s on a different level of spirituality. He has done this with integrity for so long, that when he’s blacking out, it’s amazing. We love it and I just want more of it” she said that perfectly 😊

[Rayebae]

Kendrick always been the rose that grew from concrete ever since I heard overly dedicated. I really don’t want nobody to keep comparing anyone to Kendrick. .. with GNX he successfully blended generations. If u actually listen there’s a Message

TV off feels like it was made for the Super Bowl. the horns section feels like something he'd play with the band at the stadium.

"Headshots for the year, you better walk around like Daft Punk!"

[rosharma]

Kendrick bought his own gnx on March 19th per his burner X account.

3 days later they drop Like that.

And the rest is history

Im from L.A. born and raised bruh the city ain’t felt like this in a long time! Fr the energy is just on fire right now!!

[jaquismccullough]

Kendrick really did put the medicine in the candy with this album. It’s one of the reasons this album is so great. It’s been a long time since someone made lyrical bangers.

[toilettisha]

Kendrick is not bigger because of Drake, he’s bigger because of his skill, his music and how intelligent he has been and we know how critical thinking had left hip hop conversations. If it was just Drake, then Pusha T would be bigger.

Man at the Garden ...wow...Makes you appreciate Nas and One Mic so much. Dot did his thing. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[Its_LucasKC]

I got friends who don’t even listen to Kendrick saying that GNX is a fire album and that’s saying something. This man is the King of Rap right now 💯🔥👑

[zackyv]

GNX really is extremely good. And nadeska is right we always knew Kendrick could do this stuff he just choose to take certain routes with his albums. He really needs to be inspired tho because he pours his heart into his lyrics

[brentonbogan]

The key here is that the record “stuck”….. 18 weeks at number 1 is the real indicator of impact of that song

[LahueFTW]

one of the things that doesn’t get talked about enough is how kendrick fosters his relationship with the listener. kendrick has spent a decade now ensuring that the listener receives the best version of him and he’s prided himself on that. when u see a kendrick drop, u stop everything you’re doing to listen because he has worked so hard to earn that trust from the listener and i think THAT is what seperates him from everyone else.

[nightcr_wler]

FINALLY!!! Waited two weeks for this! So much happened between the last episode and this one

[qaspanova]

Not Like Us is the biggest song of 2024 with or without bots

[Niskovic]

Kendrick IS and HAS been the GOAT for the longest. People just needed a little reminder.

[AwakenedGodsChannel]

We are in the KDot Dominance Era. Nobody is comparing or competing with him for atleast a couple years. Its OVER
