Eddie is the MVP for always appreciating what Beyoncé does as an artist. Same with Ebro. They are fans of music and the art. Love that for us. And yes. Kendrick is incredible, GNX is fire and Not Like Us is song of the year.
Euphoria was the best track this year. Probably best track of the decade, the beat, energy, flows, lyricism, wordplay, changes in tonality were all fire it’s hype enough to blast in a car or during workout - but to mix that in with the real life implications and foreshadowing are things other songs just cannot do
Kendrick really exhibited textbook post-traumatic response with Like That when he said he's paranoid, still got PTSD and hoped their sentiments was symbolic. "I'm gonna strike you first before you even THINK of hitting me!" He lined them both up.
It’s important to note that Kendrick also says in Euphoria that he was surprised by the feature request because they all knew they had issues to resolve before they could work together. That’s like a friend owing you money consistently spending money around you and they still haven’t paid you back.
Tyler the Creator went number 1, he’s third in a row!!! J COLE continued to made more people dry, Doechi got a Grammy nom on her mixtape, SOUL BURGER, DARK TIMES????? Meet the Grahams was right after family matters, lots of this reporting missing here
The cole glazing is wild. He was being pure disrespectful (fine) but then apologized (okay), then said he would win but loose a friend. Absolutely lame. Vegan creamville
@yanvincemutesa2897 I like cole and I have nothing worth saying negative about his discography. When he said he would win but loose a friend, it was weak and bs. Kendrick did & would again wipe him in competition. Respect
I wouldn't call it glazing if it's explained immediately after. glazing is more like senselessly backing someone or something because you're a fan bro lol
@infamous_e I hear you, but the explanation had nothing to do with reality. Can't ignore events in history and downplay their importance. First person shooter was the opening shot. It took 7 months to acknowledge history.
I flew over to NY that weekend futures album released and went to the kith store on Friday morning. I remember walking in and hearing a crazy beat being played, and then Kendrick. I was thinking what song is this and then was speechless when I realised it was on the future and metro album. Just a hiphop moment for me I’ll never forget
Her timeline missed a bunch of things. The Chris Brown vs Quavo beef with unreleased Takeoff vocals, Watch the party die, Port Antonio, KDot SZA tour, the other Drake diss he dropped on IG same time as family matters, Tyler's album etc.
The problem with Cole isn’t him backing out or being human it’s him constantly claiming he’s the best and not backing that up with proof. Just don’t claim you’re the best and he’s fine. I can name 10 artists significantly better than Cole and they’re not out here claiming to be the best so they don’t need to be battle tested they can just make music in their lane for their fans to enjoy and everyone’s happy.
The Cole fan in Nadeska couldn't help herself from shooting him bail lol. The tragic line was not about it being a sad album, he was calling it tragically bad, let's be realistic here.
People don’t understand how goated Ebro is … for the record he has been on stage with biggie and been in this thing since the 90s and always kept it real. The goat of hip hop media
I hate how people always sympathetic to j.cole like he hasn't been dissing Kanye for years someone he knows isn't gonna respond but when kendrick calls you out you wave the white flag🐱
Kendrick took care of both people who had been dissing Kanye for years, Drake and J. Cole. Also he said in Father Time “When Kanye got back with Drake I was slightly confused, am not as mature as I think. Got some healing to do” but we know Kanye and Drake had to do that event because of J Prince, Drake went back at throwing shade and shots at Ye after that.
Yeah makes no sense, and he dissed Kanye during his TLOP era. Before Kanye had made any wild comments. J Cole ducked that K Dot smoke as soon as things got real
We cannot leave out that it was Megan who came at Drake being fake first. Talked about his abs and his posting up in other people's hoods. Ya'll forgot that Drake responded and basically used Onika as a shield?
Drake didn’t study Kendrick Kendrick studied Drake over the years Drake underestimated Kendrick , Kendrick comes from battle rap as a kid Drake been apart of battle rap for about 7 years
@@cybomakh210 what was Kendrick so knowledgeable about? Drake was picking Kendrick apart but people hate Drake so much that they didn’t pay attention. But as the dust settles with the battle, more and more people are finally giving Family Matters the props it deserves

As west coast native I love the energy around Kendrick’s dominance, but also for “RAP” hella music was even mentioned Blue Lips, Chromakopia, Dark Times, Soul Burger, Gloriousa and I could keep going. Just a lil more balance please! Love and respect to yall though!
I'm late af but I just discovered ya'll this year & I've loved every bit of content ya'll have put out. Eddie & Nedeska are my faves, but I love Ebro & Low too! Thanks so much for everything guys it's been amazing ♥
The Cudi v. Lupe beef wasn't about the Bape store. It was about a Twitter back and forth they had. The Bape store story Cudi just used Lupe as an example and just brought their initial beef back up and lead to them settling it.
I was sick and bed ridden during the beef. So i was in heaven, listening to all the tracks, deciphering and texting my friends. It will go down in history as one of my favorite moments of 2024 even tho I was sick lol.
When I heard that first Drake diss, I said uh uhn this ain't what you want. I said you don't write, you not built like that. You better throw in that towel now!😂😂
Excellent! Egg Cell Lent! Butt, you overlooked this whole Sean Combs situation. Rain don't fall on just one man's rooftop. And The South got something to say! That's all I'm gonna say! *7*
The 100 Gig dropped was the worst move for Drake. It’s the first sign that he’s not sure what to do post beef and the first sign of issues with his label.
And don't forget before the Taylor Made freestyle, there was an A.I. Kendrick record that Drake thought was legit until they spoke to the producer and he explained how he created it. We then got Taylor Made shortly after.
The Cudi Lupe beef didn't start because of the bape store. It started MotM2 era but it got brought up again because of an interview Cudi did where he mentioned Lupe coming in while he was working there way back when.
😂😂 Meet the Grahams was 27 minutes after Family Matters dropped. Reactors were on stream reviewing Family Matters when they started receiving notifications that Kendrick had dropped.
Shout out to Nadeska for the year in Hip-Hop. Truly amazing. From the Bay, I truly enjoy Rap Life Review along with the perspective and insight each individual brings to the forum. I'll admit, it's Kendrick who brought me here. I'm not a huge fan of most of the current rappers discussed. Except for Doechii. Her talent is undeniable. Anyway, with the Superbowl, Grand National Tour, and potential deluxe album, I'll stay tuned in for all things Kendrick. Glazing? Me? Nah!! lol.
meet the grahams didn’t drop a day after it dropped in the same hour as family matters.
Will always remember that moment 😂

The biggest part of the battle was that comeback after 30 minutes. What a wild Friday night

OTY sure but this isnt even close to Kendrick's best track of the decade

You say your Brother jermaine, but you want him to stay out of the light 😈
Jermaine took himself out of the light. Kendrick ain't trying to keep him from the light.
"F apologies, I wanna see you geeked up" -Kendrick Lamar
“Kendrick dropped” is the phrase of the year
Nah its "Kendrick dropped again!"
Yasiin Bey made mention of Drake being compatible with shopping in Target during an interview in January.
And he was called out and so disrespected by Drake fans, so Kendrick redeemed him for his insightful critique❤💚🖤
It’s important to note that Kendrick also says in Euphoria that he was surprised by the feature request because they all knew they had issues to resolve before they could work together. That’s like a friend owing you money consistently spending money around you and they still haven’t paid you back.

Cole loves to deny the subliminal shots he takes and then comes out years later like "yeah I did....I did"
I was confused too because I clearly remember the multiple Kayne digs
Kendrick took care of both people who had been dissing Kanye for years, Drake and J. Cole.
Also he said in Father Time “When Kanye got back with Drake I was slightly confused, am not as mature as I think. Got some healing to do” but we know Kanye and Drake had to do that event because of J Prince, Drake went back at throwing shade and shots at Ye after that.

Maaaan that was a great segment!! She shouldn’t have had to rush it at the end. She deserved all the time she needed
So we’re just gonna pretend the Diddy and Jay-Z news never happened this year? 🤦♀️
💯
Is it not okay to just focus on the music?
It wasn’t musical
Jay Z being in a lawsuit ain’t news. Diddy being charged is
That’s not rap
Are they really just going to skip over Tyler The Creator Chromakopia like that?? The disrespect SMH 🤦🏽♂️
Tyler at home rn watching this like 😕
Tyler also had the second best Hiphop album this year right behind GNX 🤦🏽♂️
