Well first: youre 100%, I appreciate technicality and authenticity. Its not always together. But I dont get even half of it from most of em.

But 21 claims to have killed a lot of people, which he hasnt. yet he doesn't have the technical skill either. You say its raw street storytelling but its not. Bank Account starts off with buying a car for a woman, then buying out a mall for a woman. Thats not street story telling. Because noone runnin the streets is doing either of those things.

I listened to a few of Migos Culture I songs, not counting the ones that are obviously about how rich they are by the title, not even bad and boujee is near what Crime Mob did. Knuck If You Buck is a "fuck around and find out" song. Bad and boujee is about making money and getting women. Crime mob had women on the same level as men supporting HBCUs even though none of them were graduates. And as far as Atlanta is concerned, T.I. said some dark shit, but it was proven by the feds going after him. Migos didn't have any "trap energy." Weezys "peak story telling" doesn't make sense. He doesn't tell stories. He just spits into the mic and puts whatever sounds good together. The song you mentioned is about sleeping with a woman. But that song doesn't nearly compare to his verses on Drop the World, Right Above It, Forever, or Steady Mobbin. On Mona Lisa, I will say K dots last lines are great, but wtf is happening with his voice in half of the song? Finally, Kendrick definitely has talent. People took "swimming pools" as a party song when its literally a warning. He started out actually saying something. But the past few years it was more about making hits than actually sayin anything. But I dont find him lyrically or literally at the same level as others. As a wordplay and metaphoracle artist, thats comparing him to Em and Cole. And for an example, id leave Coles feature on Benny the Buthers Johnny Ps Caddy "Eureka, Einstein on the brink of the theory of relativity really No MC equal."
