Why Kendrick Lamar Has The WORST Fanbase Ever

  • Kendrick Lamar's fanbase has got to be one of the biggest meat riding fanbases ever. His fans have gotten MUCH worse after diss tracks like Euphoria, 6:16 in LA, Meet The Grahams and Not Like us. They are the most annoying hip-hop fans that I have ever dealt with. And in this video, I explain why I think this. Additionally, I'm going to explain why I'm not going to make an Am I Sleepin' video or Song Ranking video on Kendrick.

      I’m relatively new to Kendrick and I found his diss to be the best diss of hip hop and rap (specifically not like us) but holy shit k dot stands are the most pretentious and snobby people about a rapper. A guy who makes a living entertaining you with raps is somehow comparable to Freud, Oppenheimer, Tesla, and all these scientists and scholars because he makes music that takes slightly more effort to produce? Yeah he can make good metaphors and artistic interpretations about emotions and scenarios but that isn’t exclusive to Kendrick, rap, or art as a whole, This isn’t new ground but k fans swear up and down that Kendrick “brought real rap back and not twerk music”
      Essentially they’re the Rick and Morty fans of hip hop if you ask me

      i think the real kendrick fans who actually listened and analyzed his music from front to end to my knowledge aren't toxic at all. If anything they are actually pretty calm and somewhat objective when it comes to the beef with drake. However, it's the people who recently hopped on to the drake hate train or people who only read about kendricks music based on other people's opinions through social media platforms without actually listening to his music are the most toxic ones. Most of em probably listened only listened his most mainstream songs and now all of a sudden they think they are more informed on social justice than anyone else.

    I used to think that Pac Stans are the worst but Kendrick Stans take the cake.
    They assume that everyone who's not feeling Kendrick doesn't listen to rap. I think it's safe to assume that most of his Stans started listening to rap in the 2010s
    They also assume that non-Kendruck listeners are not intelligent enough to grasp his lyrics. He is not the first rapper to drop socially conscious lyrics. There are rappers like Greydon Square, Canibus, Ras Kass and KRS-ONE who've dropped more intellectual shit than Kendrick.
    Another illogical and incorrect assumption that they often make is that you listen to wack mumble rappers like Lil Yachty.

Like, it was an incredibly jazzy, cool, and unique rap album that pretty much showed why people loved Kendrick so much. Also, I'm so sorry you had to deal with those fans. It's a common disease in the music community, where any time you express an opinion that is even SLIGHTLY unpopular, like not even a hot take, just something that slightly goes against popular opinion, people will be on your case, thinking you're a troll or an idiot. It's pathetic at best and toxic at worst.

    The elephant in the room is he and a large part of his fanbase are angry racists... when a large part of your art is about racial resentment, anger, and grudges, its not really surprising that they are like this. The kinds of themes he talks about in that context are interesting and important to discuss... but to only hone in on anger and vengeance as your focus of those large complex themes is a big red flag on where your heart is at.

      That's we're you missed the point Kendrick isnt preaching to ppl he speaks from his own personal experience and his own feelings he don't say align with these thoughts the idea that Kendrick has the answers is wrong his whole discog is riddled with contradictions and he said he chases that , he is constantly challenging his own views and his own feelings
      Kendrick said on a song that if anyone ever touches his family he will kill them literally
      And the next day he went to speak about gun violence to kids
      Bro is literally a great rapper who makes introspective music
      About his life
      Ppl twist this
      And he went out and said that he is not what we think he is
      And he's never tried to be

    I respect anybody that embraces the culture of hip hop however they choose to digest it. I'll never understand how viewers feel you're required to listen to AND forcibly enjoy someone that you simply just don't listen to.
    Kendrick a part of the culture regardless who enjoys him or not. But like. It's okay to NOT be interested in someone's music. I definitely agree w you because I feel the same about a few rappers (ASAP Rocky, Nas, and Jay Rock). But I wish people just let opinions be what they're supposed to be. If you not interested, you just not interested. But i ain't ever bout to let nobody Deebo me for what I feel.

    People interpret not listening to an artist as a personal issue because they attach themselves to the artist.
    The disconnect is that people like us don't. We love the music and the meanings behind it but we're not invested in the people behind it like them.
    Old heads get a pass because they're mostly trying to put you on to music that started and influenced the genre. It's good to be knowledgeable about what came before but everything should be preached in moderation.

    He's a mainstream artist that has a good marketing team that make people FEEL that he is an undiscovered, underground, backpack rapper. Because of this, lots of people can feel sophisticated about hip hop by jumping on the KL bandwagon and feel good about themselves. It's the same way people feel so excited to know about the local undiscovered coffee shop or bar. They feel like they are part of a secret club. But in reality, everyone in that local area knows about that "secret shop".
    The elephant in the room these people will never admit is that if an artist does more than $100m on a tour, he's mainstream. It doesn't matter what he raps about, it doesn't matter his style, it doesn't matter the beats on his album. If you are a top grossing artist, you're mainstream by default because a niche underground artist cannot earn that much money.

      Never denied his mainstream but he is on of the only few mainstream artists that still take risks with their art and still challenges themselves and to me that's the most attractive thing about k dot
      Mo times I miss his lines or what he really is trying to say
      But when I hear his music I never think

    The inverse can also happen, when they find out who you DO listen to, and scrutinize them.

    But I can tell he’s not going to be respected everywhere.
    But now I’m realizing these people are specifically the ones who generate that disrespect
    Most people will be like “oh, I’ve never heard of X you think they’re dope”
    Or “yeah he’s alright or I don’t really fuck with him”

    He is talented but i can't stand his voice, beats, flow. In my opinion his lyrics are mediocre. He tries too hard to be deep and abstract. Just not my cup of tea. 95% of what I listen to is 90s NYC rap so someone can see how his style just isn't it for me. He is talented from a musical perspective but I can not listen to it, it's just not my type of music. I also don't like any California rappers besides maybe Tupac and Ice T. I just can't relate. Kendrick to me is too woke/hipster/backpack/weirdo shit for me. His lyrics are more like poems than rap, it reads better on paper than it does on a track. It reminds me of an artist who just throws random paint on a canvas and still gets morons to pay 5 million for it.
