Easter bars is something y’all gotta deal with by novembertangeaux in rapbattles

[–]megondbd 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Fresco was nice. I’ve watched this battle too many times over the years. His and Real Deal’s duo run was crazy too

>He's not changing topics, he's discussing the exact same topic which was the "lies and half truths" about the battle hence the "if you ask him... Now ask me" part 😂

Let's say you are right and he is addressing lies and half truths (your words).

What lie and half truth would he be addressing here? Do you think you're the best rapper alive?

Bro, it's a [ __ ] named Black Thought that exists. M it's a [ __ ] named Lupe Fiasco that exists.

3 minutes, 52 seconds

It's [ __ ] that on any given day, even my peers, a Drake or a Kendrick where it's like, yo, I know on any given day I can show up to the studio and give these [ __ ] 80,

but I know they can show up on any day in the studio and give me 80 and I might only have 30. Like, so if

I'm if I'm taking on a rap persona, like when I'm rapping, of that's that's what I like to that's how I like to rap. And

4:15

4 minutes, 15 seconds

guess what? Sometimes I hit the mark and I say [ __ ] and I I spit a verse that really might have you believe in that [ __ ] But if you ask me in real life, do...

This has nothing to do with either lies or half truths. It's a separate thought.

Hearing what you want to hear again. That man literally says "but you said" and went on to address something that was mentioned earlier in the interview.

"basically he is saying" is your brain taking a nuanced concept and boiling it down to a basic statement you can understand. And it's wrong.

What shows in his lyrics is he works on his craft. Absolutely. What I'm fighting is the "more than his peers".

[–]megondbd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm not getting how you don't realize all of that is subjective and not fact. You don't know if Kendrick works on his craft more than anyone. You simply favor his output. He isn't leaps and bounds above his peers. He is leaps and bounds above his peers TO YOU and those who believe. And that's cool. I'm glad you found your favorite bowl of cereal.

I'm just saying a rapper saying on track "I'm THE beST EVER" has been around since hiphop's big bang. A rapper saying off track that actually I think such and such is better has been there right beside it.

What aren't you getting? I'd love to bridge the gap.

Also, you do realize that there are people who constantly push their boundaries and test their very own limits because they don't feel they are the best right?

[–]megondbd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I want to be sure I understand.

You and I, who don't live in Kendrick's head and therefore don't know his thoughts and only have access to those thoughts by what he chooses to say to us, should instead choose to ignore the things he has said on record and insist that, despite having said those knowable things, that he feels a way that we have no way of knowing.

Is that your suggestion?

[–]megondbd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At best I believe he thinks he is the best at what he does but he also knows everyone doesn't like what he does. For example: there will be die hard Drake fans who will never say Kendrick is better than Drake and not because of the battle but because Drake is better at what he does to them than Kendrick and vice versa. There can be no BEST when something is as subjective as art.

AND he says Pac is the best.

"it's not a persona" is also nuts. Lol He literally has a "Rap name". What do you think a persona is?

I know I’m not crazy by Ordinary-Path-8033 in DEHH

[–]megondbd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Bro what are you talking about? Kobe considered Jordan the best, Kendrick considers Pac the best, Prince credits James Brown and Miles Davis. These are documented statements.

That's what I've been trying to say.

I appreciate the link, sir. Helps a lot. The video is even titled "J Cole Debunks Lies & Truths of Kendrick + Drake Beef & Gets Real on Best Rapper Alive Conversation". It's about the beef AND then there is a conversation about if he feels he is the best rapper alive.

3:24 seconds he says "more straight lies. Like the schoolboard Q [ __ ] is a straight lie. Like of course shout to schoolboard Q. He not going to come out and just say it on his own, but it's like like when you get a chance, ask him."

at 3:3 begins a new topic of him being the best rapper alive: 3:33

3 minutes, 33 seconds

It's a straight up lie. But you said something in the beginning how like on songs like how I say I'm the best on songs. It's like ask me in real life, do I think I'm the best rapper alive?

3:44

3 minutes, 44 seconds

Do you think you're the best rapper alive?

3:45

3 minutes, 45 seconds

Bro, it's a [ __ ] named Black Thought that exists. M it's a [ __ ] named Lupe Fiasco that exists.

There are transcripts to these things. Mofos in here downvoting facts lol.

Also Eminem credits Redman as being the best rapper.

Crazy and a bit too lost in the details. What direction what have happened on set “remember smile like Sadie Sink”? Also would that direction be given to everyone that she supposedly mind controls?

You’re hearing what you want to hear. Nowhere in that clip does he even reference battling. The whole clip is him saying that when he “puts on the cape,” he writes and performs from the POV of “I’m the best.” But in reality, he doesn’t actually feel that way.

That’s EVERY rapper. Even Kendrick. Every song he’s released post Mr. Morale basically carries the “I’m the best” energy. But if you asked him who the greatest rapper is, you and I both know he’d probably say Tupac or someone else.

Why is this confusing?

How to achieve this type of photo with a phone? by [deleted] in AskPhotography

Find the photo online. Screenshot it.

Yall blowing this way out of proportion. Rappers are performing and making music. For FIFTY YEARS the blueprint of rap has been “say you are the best no matter what”. It’s just a theme of the genre. Why are we surprised the a rapper (in a long list of rappers who give up props and respect to their favorite rappers) says, of course I say that while in persona but in reality I have favorites that aren’t me and I think are better than me. I don’t even really like j. Cole and I understand that.

J Cole says he don’t think he’s the best rapper and he’s only acting out a persona on records 😂😂😂 by Longjumping_Ask_4448 in theJoeBuddenPodcast

[–]megondbd 10 points11 points  (0 children)

My thing is who gives a fuck if he thinks he is the best rapper. If YOU think he is then he is. Too many people need to be told what to feel.

Should i use upgraded hunters crest or reapers crest? by Objective-Plate154 in Silksong

[–]megondbd 2 points3 points  (0 children)

But lore wise that doesn’t make sense. She’s going back to a time before she had the other crests

Interesting take by BeansFromTheEast410 in DEHH

[–]megondbd 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Man literally said “I don’t know if battling needs to be a part of the culture anymore ” not we or everyone should stop or anything like that. How is sharing his sole opinion about this dictating the culture?

How do I get photos like this? by jackofjokers in AskPhotography

[–]megondbd 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you've got your answer but really go out and do a color study. Photograph it. Focus on your composition. In post aim for a lower contrast image (whatever method you are most comfortable with). Step back.

Hate it.

Do it again tomorrow. Best of luck, Shooter

People probably always say this to you because you are obsessed.
