DAMN. vs 4:44

[sapp08_2001]

DAMN is cool. But I did think Kendrick's lyrics were a little lazy. No real punchlines, no notable one-liners.

Kdot never punches

He never had one liners that were fire. That's not his thing

Negative.

"It's kind of scary ain't it?

You can't act like no bitch, that only got Tyler Perry famous".

"Cats so watered down clowns can sink Titanic

Tie titanium around their neck and watch em panic

Give me respect, dammit, or get damaged

Die young, corpse identified by your parents

Apparently you a parrot

Mocking me and my blueprint

But I won’t share it just make you cop it then call you a sheriff

Stop it, I’m hearin' the comments

The critics are calling me conscious

But truthfully, every shooter be callin' me Compton

So truthfully, only calling me Kweli and Common?

Proves, that ignorance is bliss"

"Quantum physics could never show you the world I was in

When I was ten, back when nine ounces had got you ten

And nine times out of ten, niggas don’t pay attention

And when there’s tension in the air, nines come with extensions"

"And tell me that you biting style, you got a hell of an appetite

And I'mma be here for a while just buckle up before the ride

Or knuckle up, if you could fight, we always making ‘em duck or die

A suit and tie is suitable and usual in suicide

CSI just might investigate this fucking parasite

(He dead, amen) That’s what they telling me

Aim it at your celebrity, this is studio felony

Ferragami so many and cool enough for the 70’s

Nigga, payback’s a bitch and bitch you been living in debt with me"

Poll is close....

But looks like Jay might take it. But DAMN. is leading in another thread?

 

[i ro ny]

Nas is the better rapper and he got the better discography.

Kendrick is overall better than Jay Z

Jay Z has more money than Kendrick Lamar

I was going to debate the logic of this post then I realised who it is

I aint gon lie tho, I rarely revisit either of these albums. I'd say I listen to two or three songs from Jay shit and can't even quote a Kendrick line from DAMN. If nothing else, I'd say the premise behind 4:44 is more memorable. DAMN, to me, was Kendrick's "hey don't forget I rap too" album. Feel like the next one might be another magnum opus.
