Has Kendrick Lamar lowkey surpassed Drake in hip hop stardom?

[D.D.S.]

Drake has pop love so idt he gives a fuck about hip hip anymore. He's regressed and has given the people mediocre music, whereas Kendrick gets better from each album.

DAMN and TPAB are not better than GKMC

It's amazing to me how Drake is even relevant the past couple years, I mean there was a time even if you weren't feeling it personally you still knew when a song was going to be a hit he had a special talent when it came to making them plus he still wasn't completely played out, now I haven't heard a bearable Drake song in years yet he's still being played constantly, you can't even say the shit is cool to hear in the club it's never cool it never sounds good, it's sheep that keep him relevant

U slow so i shouldnt have to fuk free aint gud???boy we like his we on dis dik

My point is how can they be bigger stars when they have a smaller fanbase and smaller amount of people supporting their music.

The numbers speak for themself

If the numbers speak for themselves then why didn't you vote no since Drake has a larger fan base, more records sold, and more songs that have charted??

"On the chart dated April 8, More Life topped the Billboard 200 and set a streaming record, earning 505,000 album-equivalent units of which 226,000 were pure sales"

DAMN beat that

Bruh..now you just posting just to post. Can you put some context to your random number drops. Yes Kendrick is hot right now I think DAMN is a dope album and is waaaay better than More Life which in my opinion is Drake's wackest album so of course it's not gonna do better than Ken's album, but are you ignoring the fact Drake has been the biggest seller in hip hop the past 3 years. He hosted the espys last year hosting the NBA awards this year, broke all types of billboard records, is a prominent fixture in social media and hip hop blogs whether they hate or love him,in addition to being more recognized out of the country....So I ask again what point are you making?

The question of the thread is asking about RIGHT NOW.

Not the past 3 yrs or their careers in total.

Has Kendrick surpassed him NOW?

What happened in years past dont matter. Right now Kendrick just did bigger numbers than everybody.

 

[grYmes]

As far as who's the most recognizable, biggest & bankable hip hop star, no. Drake as of now still holds that title but its not something that he'll keep forever. Eventually he's gotta switch up this simp shit he doin cuz people will just as easily throw him by the wayside. Kendrick definitely positioned himself to be his replacement & it's comin where I see it.

... and with minimal guest features on his album compared to More Life

[PanchoYoSancho]

Every single Damn song off the Damn album is charting. Even the Damn intro....

...yourself

 

[Agrv2385]

whats low key about it? Seems pretty blatant and out in the open at this point.....

 

[PanchoYoSancho]

Shit it's possible Wale could come out the woodworks and surpass everyone and one day become the GOAT rapper.

No the hell it's not.

 

[KnowReasonForPeace]

Drake oversaturated the game with his subpar music the last few years. He'll still be a top 10 artist but that downward trend is happening now.

 

[StoneColdMikey]

Yeah in the beginning dude would at least go away from dropping singles until his next album came but after NWTS dude been dropping too much music i
