Is Kendrick Lamar as good as people say? - Eman - 03-24-2014 12:04 PM
Lots of people say K Dot is the bomb right now. I listened to both of his albums and very few songs of his caught my attention. He is kinda good tbh but his skills are overrated imo. What I look for most in a rapper are their word plays. He doesnt have any or atleast i havent noticed any. What do you think about him? His best songs according to me are:
-Rigamortis
-HiiPower
-Swimming Pools
-The art of peer pressure
-Love game (by Eminem ft K.)
-We on (by 50 cent ft K.)
Please comment his best songs according to you too. Thanks

K-dot is the shit. It sucks because not a lot of people listened to him in 2010 & 2011. Songs you should listen to is...
Control Verse
Money Trees
She Needs Me
Maad City
Backseat Freestyle
Poe Man Dreams

Yes, he is overrated by mainstream media though, but i think he is the best conscious rapper out right now or someone who raps about social issues and/or politics.
Listen to all of Section .80 from track 1 to the last track, actually listen to it and you will understand what i mean, after that actually listen to all of Good Kid Maad City from track 1 to the last track.
He is an incredible story teller if you've heard Good Kid Maad City you will understand.
These are the songs i like
Country Building Blues
Ignorance Is Bliss
Sing About Me
Tammy's Song (Her Evils)
Poe Mans Dreams (His Vice)
Chapter Six
Cartoon & Cereal
Kush & Corinthians
F*ck Your Ethnicity
Ronald Regan Era
Collect Call
Most are off section .80

Good kid maad city is a concept album. You should listen to it in order from the first song to the last. It's like he's telling a story. But any ways my favorite songs from him are
Sing About Me, I'm Dying of Thirst
A.D.H.D
Maad City
No Make Up
ROTC (interlude)
Good Kid
Real

He's incredibly precise with his syllables, while also being a pretty compelling storyteller. My favorite songs are probably Good Kid, Rigamortus, and his verse on Schoolboy Q's Blessed
