Call me white, but I don’t care for black people music. It’s like, the more time I spend reflecting on my investments and giving back to my neighborhood, the farther I get from where their music comes from and what it’s all about. I tell you good chaps one thing though, those Rap Snacks are legit. Seriously about to open a bagga dem Migos Sour Cream With A Dab Of Ranch. Mmmmmm, frick whitey.

It’s not a personal hatred of him, it’s his music and that genre that is laughably bad and in general is spreading a horrible message.
I understand rap isn't for everyone.. I like rap, but not all rap. There is some pretty basic shite out there, but there are some pretty creative rap artist.
As for as "spreading a horrible message". Whether it's rap, rock, country, etc.. At some point they all make songs about fricking and doing drugs/drinking alcohol. Is one better than the other just because they use different words?

It's a good album but GKMC is his best album. And lol at anyone who says they've never heard of Kendrick to be edgy

Those people always crack me up in these threads, like anyone here thinks your cool because you don’t know an insanely famous person

Wasn't there a dude on the Music Board who got banned because he kept posting only pro-Kendrick Lamar vs. Drake threads a while back?
Vindicated.

Good Kid, M.A.A.D. City > To Pimp a Butterfly > DAMN.
Him winning this award would seem a lot less weird if some older, equally deserving rappers had won. Outkast, A Tribe Called Quest, maybe even Public Enemy all made "literary" hip hop that had a lasting social and cultural impact and critical merit.

I haven't listened to Kendrick enough to form an opinion. I love the Swimming Pools song, but that's about as far as I go.
The point you make is fair, though. I wonder if it's this Pulitzer Prize committee trying to atone for past oversights, actually honoring a deserving artist, or trying to appear hip.
Usually, the truth lies somewhere in the middle, but we'll never truly know.

Add Nas to that list.

Yeah a couple people. They were Drake butt buddies and just filled the entire board with Drake shite

This was actually surprising to me. I am a big fan of Kendrick Lamar. He is one of the few rappers I listen to, because most of the artists out are pure trash.
Thing is, DAMN was simply not that great. It had a few good songs, but it was not that great. This was simply not his best work, at all. In fact, I would argue it was his worst album he has put out to date.
I am a firm believer that his first album, Good Kid, Maad City was his best work. That was a literary masterpiece. GKMC is one of the best rap albums of all-time imo. If anything should have won a freaking Pulitzer, it definitely should have been that.

It's about time.
Next, a competitive eater or competitive cup stacker can win an Olympic medal.
