ok but the rapping is better on tpab id argue so is the social commentary which are things the album is lauded for. The poem goes crazy as well.

Mr. Morale still clears all of Cole's discography except 2014 FHD, which is to show how good Kendrick's discography really is. Why did Cole ever diss that of all things about Kendrick? That bar is tragic.

Wdym, damn is objectively Kendrick’s prime, he sold 600k first week if I remember correctly and it charted for an insane length of time. He won’t get close to 600k ever again nor was he anywhere close before damn.

It was his peak in terms of numbers, but it was by far not his best project. Gkmc, tpab, section 80, and untitled unmastered are all better imo.

I agree with you, but when cole is talking about kdot's prime hes not talking about the album that he or other people thought was the best. A lot of people would agree that it's not his best work, but damn is objectively kendrick's prime and I'm not sure why bladee666 found it funny that cole pointed that out.

I feel like an artists prime is their best work, and not their highest selling work. It’s like saying travis scott’s prime is astroworld instead of rodeo.

That's a good way to think about artists' primes and I agree. I was just going off of what cole meant in his diss and what people, afaik, usually mean when they talk primes.

J. Cole is the one of the best rappers alive now. His works are a classic and not for the newer attention span deprived generation who don't like anything other than Carti Yeat Uzi.
Simply put they overvalue beats over lyrics and will call any bar trash or corny if it doesn't mention sex weed smoke racism killing etc, you get it.

Cole being downplayed by everyone meanwhile "Seeyahhh BIHHH Cahhh Littt WHAEEE" music is being appreciated, that's why I never listen to anyone's opinion on music nowadays.

Also a friend of mine who's in Chicago and is black says the hood prefers Cole over K. Dot, don't listen to Twitter or Reddit about music opinion because its mostly filled with white mentally retarted teens.

True, but not true b/c "hardly" is just false. I was ranking the artists off of the quality of their average body of work, and on that front drake shits the bed a bit and cole is objectively more consistent.

i mean depends on what you value, i appreciate drake's higher highs over cole's just average 6/10 albums

I mean I can just say i appreciate cole's higher highs over drake's just average 4/10 albums, but i get what you're saying.

From the perspective of a cole fan (which I'm not), I could see myself being way less disappointed after coles average drop than I would be if i were a drake fan after drakes average drop, if that makes sense. I feel like thats an important distinction which is why in album quality i cant rank drake higher, even though I appreciate his highs much more than coles highs.

as a drake fan i'm not really dissapointed when he drops mid, i know he is way past his prime as an artist, i'm just looking for cool vibey songs to add in my playlist at this point not a full album experience like in take care, nwts, iyrtitl

as a fan of both now i can't understand cole fans after yesterday drop glazing him so much, this response is extremely mid. Guys you rather forgot how good kdot discography is and this take in first cole's verse: your second sht put n*** to sleep, but they gassed it, is so bad and delusional take

idc about rap beef i think we should all stop caring about 1-upping each other HOWEVER it is so funny that cole's first response is just to go through kendrick's discography and basically give his personal rating. most of the time you seem people attack the person themself, but cole and kendrick aren't really on bad terms and kendrick doesn't have some awful past to bring up, so we end up just reviewing music instead of beefing. this is all especially funny when its Kendrick Lamar that you're targetting. i can't think of anyone with a more consistent, universally loved, and critically-acclaimed catalogue, and cole decides his best chance of winning the beef is to call TPAB overrated and sleepy. like huh??? there's like 100 people in the world that agree with him, and millions who dont
