Section 80 helped me with my sleep deprivation problem so I got to give Kendrick props for that, but y'all got to stop just be happy you weirdos got him into the final four, now put your gay ass man crush to the side and let's get the better rapper into the finals

This is the First time i heard Kendrick. Him in 2009...nothing basic about this at all.
He spazzes By the end of the Freestyle.
From this moment forward, i knew he was Special & was destined for greatness
Message, bars, Flow and Charisma.
K Dot is not on a mission to take you on some Metaphorical journey. He's more of the rapper the Everyday Black Man who's been through some shit Can relate to. He wants to Move you with Words and Sounds and deliver a message...Lupe is not as Relatable nor enjoyable to listen to.
Plus i feel Lupe dresses up his average bars with delivery and tone on some "did you catch what i just said/go look up that word and subject i just put in this bar" Smart alecky shit with the way he places emphasis on the ends of his bars and a lot of times, he didn't even say shit.
He's a great rapper...just not a Better rapper nor Artist than K Dot IMO

I'd listen to a Kendrick album before I listen to a Lupe album...
But I'd be damned if Lupe isn't the better rapper.

I really don't see the pedestal y'all put Lupe on IDC
Idgaf how miracle lyrical you are I needed a deep breakdown to understand what the fuck he said in mural and I still can barely trust that
I put computers and networks together don't question my intelligence
If I need a masters degree in literature and psycho anylalysis to understand what your saying then your doing to much part of being Lyrically is being able to package the lyrics in a Digestable form without losing your audience
After reading the breakdown am I impressed yeah but It wasn't fun having to do that for a 8 minutes track that goes on and on

I think there's this idea of Lupe that people seem to cling to.
That all he raps about is galaxies, space and shit. From my understanding, this nigga has never rapped about any of that until the track "Jump" and that was this year.
Does he go left and have the ability to lose the avg person? Yes, yes he does. BUT what the avg listener isn't doing is listening to tracks that resonate on a relatable level. Which if you listen, most of his shit is relatable.
For instance He Say, She Say. If anybody grew up without a parent, especially a father, can understand this song. There's no deep metaphors, double meanings none of that. You can't tell me that average listener won't be able to relate to this track. If you do, you're lying and that's what niggas fail to mention when they talk about his subject matter.
You see what his problem is
He don't know where his poppa is
No positive male role models
To play football or build railroad models
Simple and sweet!

Joe Budden said Lupe was scared to battle him and Joe came to his senses that Lupe is in a different league than him lyrically and said Lupe would win.

I change my vote to lupe .... Fuck

some of TimesNuRoman's annotations were a little off and thats an attribute to how clever Lupe is as a lyricist...
there are lines with MULTIPLE interpretations ie the line:
"There's paper on the waist/waste like Henry"
TimesNuRoman mentions the kids paperback Henry and the Paper Route as the reference:
But its also a reference to the character Henry Hill in Goodfellas who keeps money in his waistband and "wastes"/spends money like water in the movie.
GENIUS LEVEL WRITING.
