About Dead End Hip Hop:
No scripts. It's pure unfiltered hip hop conversations and album reviews. No politics. No BS. We Are The People.
I really can’t win with Myke bc there’s no way that I can make matchups he’s happy with 😂😭
thanks for the effort Kyori.......these are always fun (:
i was thinking the same thing, feels like whoever you put against someone from hieroglyphics or company flow its not gonna end up well
I love Ken’s love for Kendrick 😂😂
Kendrick B Inge
They all got love for Kendrick. To be honest, that’s all they talk about is Kendrick.
@@SoulOfTheSouththat’s all they talk about? Huh?
And I hate his Kendrick Staness, I like rod and feefos love for Jay, atleast it’s warranted there
@@leandroportillo1234 Kendrick not warranted to you?
This is kinda messed up, but you guys should do a Worst Rapper bracket 🤣 it'd be great to see the guys argue for who they think is worse
If this was 10 years ago, they’d def do it lmao, I can’t see Myke letting them do it now
Silk the shocker 1st place lol
I like of this concept but I do think it is a little mean 😅 (but Tom McDonald is my pick tho LMAO)
@ktmoney929 is right tho, I don’t see Myke thinking it’s right either
Great idea
@@KyoriTheOkapi Yea probably not, btw great stuff on the brackets! We appreciate what you've been doing for the guys!
Let the arguments commence!
Edit: maaan this was the most peaceful bracket I've ever seen 😂
Alot of nostalgia picks
That too short/vince staples round was peak nostalgia.@@EZ95
Ken turned into Quagmire 😂😂😂😂
Shout-out rod for saving Earl from getting swept first round 😭😭 he's my 2nd fav rapper ever
DEHH is best with Beezy and when he’s really engaged with the topic and convo
Even though he's not on the bracket, Xzibit to me is one of the best and most underrated West Coast rappers imo
Maybe he wasn’t on because of a technicality? Grew up in Detroit, moved the New Mexico, eventually repped the West? That’s just a guess, because I agree, Xzibit was dope
They had The D.O.C. though?
There aren't many who can fuck with X's "At the Speed of Life ---> 40 Dayz & 40 Nightz ---> Restless" run.
So underrated. Shame his legacy ended up being mainly about the Pimp My Ride show.
@@Fabio035 half the MCs on the list can’t f with that run.
I swear he’s underrated.
These first round match ups are killing me. Broke my heart a couple times
Glad Beezy is present, but really excited that decent audio decided to stop by for the shoot.
20:49 forever golden dehh moment
If easy e was included here, I think dr Dre deserved to be included too I know he’s a producer first and foremost but he’s literally got 3 albums and an ep as a rapper and has loads of hits as a rapper too, regardless of if he wrote his rhymes or not (easy didn’t either) Dre deserves more credit as a rapper
Great point. AND there’s about 4 artists he could’ve replaced
If it’s best rapper I don’t think eazy or Dre should be included tbh
Agreed, especially since Eazy was included. Dre’s a REALLY good technical rapper, even if he obviously doesn’t write his stuff
No Boots Riley, King Tee, Aceyalone, Fat Lip, Gift of Gab, Shock G, Evidence, Larry June, Murs, Planet Asia, Madlib ( Quasimoto). ALOT of greats left off this bracket.
I came here to mention Ev and Murs as well. No Shock G is crazy too
@@aaronhooper3328 💯 I really enjoy the DEHH brackets but this one was a big miss for me. Maybe DEHH should let others contribute to brackets instead of using the same person all the time. Just my opinion.
I was looking for Fashawn 😮
Kendrick over Pac - What kind of CRACK y'all Smokin
🤡🤡🤡it’s not that serious to pick kdot over pac especially since pac life got cut short
@kristophergreenhow98 🤣🤣🤣😂😂 first off you are a joke 2 say on one hand it's not that serious but on another hand get all in ya lil girlie feelings 2 call me a clown like u mad - I made the comment cuz kendrick is highly overrated even tho I like him allot and I know u don't really think that I think that the brothers at DeaadEnd are really on Crack 🤣🤣🤣 get out ya feelings lil homie
Kendrick is a better rapper lyricist and most of all tupac not from the west coast he from the east coast
Pac has three classics and classic songs outside of those albums, so idk
I knew he wouldn’t get far with y’all but Thank God Tyler made it out the first round. Y’all didn’t do him dirty.
Love these brackets, and can see you guys have fun doing these too!
A Griselda track bracket would be cool, and MF DOOM one too
Myke the Kid C Town has returned once again!!!💯

You guys were talking about a "collective" top album of 2023. For sure you can get the #1 with a bracket of 2023 albums. Getting a top 5 would be complicated, but it's doable - you could work backward through the bracket if you wanted to get that.
TUPAC SHAKUR HANDS DOWN button
The man who was on the best West coast album ever to bump in the whip, to pimp a butterfly
Great show DEHH. Been following the channel for a long time. We all knew it would come down to Kendrick and Pac lol. Realistically, Kendrick isn't in Pac's weight class as a pure songwriter or all-around MC, in my opinion. He makes masterful albums with intricate concepts and is second to none in that department, but when you separate the songs from the albums in their individual components, Pac's SONGS are much more iconic, memorable, energetic, and have wider range: Dear Mama, Keep Ya Head Up, Ambitionz, So Many Tears, I Ain't Mad Atcha, Brenda's Got a Baby, How Do U Want It, Old School, Only God Can Judge Me, Pain, Blasphemy, Hold Ya Head, Against All Odds, Me Against the World, If I Die 2Nite, If My Homie Calls, Trapped, Krazy, Hail Mary, Changes, Thugz Mansion, Hit Em Up, To Live and Die in LA, Heartz of Men, Wonda Why They Call U, Picture Me Rollin, Lord Knows, I Get Around, White Man'z World, Do For Love, 2 of Amerikaz Most Wanted, Can't C Me, etc.
Kendrick is more technically proficient and more creative/experimental, but Pac mastered the uncanny skill of reaching listeners with the genuine passion in his delivery/vocal inflections (whereas Kendrick's voice is probably his weakness) and mastering the art of addressing complex subject matter using simple, relatable language. Kendrick is the more prolific storyteller and technical lyricist, but Pac is far more influential and raps with much more conviction, has a stronger delivery, more artistic range (see the bangers and more introspective deep album cuts named above, which is even more impressive when you consider how much music Pac gave us in 5 years at the pace he recorded such iconic records), more UNDISPUTED classic albums, has more quotable lyrics, and not to mention, he's battle-tested.
Kendricks voice is one of his strongest aspects. The guy used to change it frequently. 😂
I don't agree about pac being superior. I think this mainly relies on what we think his mystique is from being killed. Artists become deities once they're killed or die early. Their music becomes something "ethereal" that doesn't necessarily match the actual content of the music.
Pac has an important voice, but it had little variation. Most people can imitate his cadence without even thinking about it. And towards the end, while not even being around for that long, he became a caricature of himself. This was musically and in his real life.
If Kendrick were to get killed or overdose on drugs (this is also a pathway to becoming "deified", it would go the same way. People would listen to God from Damn and think it was a masterpiece. Despite this being one of his weakest and most trash songs. Lol
And the reason most of pacs songs are iconic, is because he adopted a thug culture that was popular at the time.
I'd also like to note how much that kind of music isn't necessarily great for the community. At the very least when he was writing his pro black panther stuff, you can point to something positive. The latter part of his career did little to help the communities he was talking about.
@@shettywap I respectfully disagree. I could just as easily say the draw to most of Kendrick’s songs/albums is attributable to him being an experimental, conscious rapper in an age where lyricism and creativity in the mainstream is virtually non-existent, but I won’t because, as is your argument about Pac, that would only be half-true. By the way, I have Kendrick in my top 10 all-time, and Pac is in MY top 3 (all things considered, not just lyrics). I named 30+ songs in my original comment, and at least half of them have positive messages. His thug persona aside, his songs are iconic because of how gifted of a songwriter he was, how memorable/quotable the lyrics were, and how universal the themes were (examples: loving your mother, family, romance, spirituality/religion, feminism/womanhood, poverty, race and politics, warfare, childhood trauma, etc.-the most prevalent themes in Kendrick’s entire catalog). Nearly every heavyweight emcee to hit the scene since the 90s imitated or was influenced by PAC in some way (Cube, Nas-my favorite, Kendrick, Cole, DMX, Scarface-who also influenced Pac, etc.). Without even talking about the fact that he’s the most influential artist by a landslide, Pac gave us more classic records in 5 years than 95+% of rappers have given us in the 27 years since he left us. I Respect your viewpoint though. It ultimately comes down to personal preference based on relatability and which generations of fans are making the comparison.
@@esquire601 most definitely a personal preference, and I respect that as well.
His influence is definitely prolific. You won't find an argument from me on that. I just don't always find the influencer to always be the best, even if people come to draw inspiration from them. Kendrick will have successors, and they will probably eclipse what he does, as that's the nature of an art forms progression.
His earlier albums have more of the "positivity" (and I hesitate to call them positive), and at least working towards something "good." Sure, he has a song here and there about things other than being a thug in the latter half, but that was the bulk of the subject matter.
@@esquire601 also, some of the people you're saying were influenced by pac were peers. Ice cube arrived with a sound and stuck with a sound. We know how cube sounds.
I think Earl shoulda made it past the first round, SRS defined a whole subgenre of rap imo. I also got SRS > Below the heavens
But in all honesty I get it lol
This was a great video , love the bracket topic !! And hope you feeling better beeezy
Would like to see y'all do ay producer bracket at some point.
Earl being gone in the first round is nuts. No one else sounds like him on this bracket. Some Rap Songs is a more relevant classic than Blu’s Below the Heavens in my opinion. Doris, IDLSIDGO, and Voir Dire are great projects as well. Wow
it’s an age thing bruh. if you 30 or under you probably picking Earl
Kyori is diabolical.
We definitely gotta get East coast Bracket
dropping this week as well
And a Southside and Midwest bracket
@@trillwave5165 top of the year fasho
Nas should certainly win, but I wouldn't be surprised if they conjure up enough votes for DOOM.
Blu beating Earl is kinda crazy, Blu made a underground classic for sure but Earl one of the few really changing how rap can even be done. Blu is just straightforward great but he's definitely not reinventing the wheel
I think even on the obvious ones in the first round especially, you all should give a little more in depth about both artists about what you like about the artists maybe some of theyre famous songs or your favorite songs for them to make it a light education for the ones on here below your generations. Itd give us a starting point if we wanted to dive deeper. Helps bring value to the first round instead of just flying through it
Another historic one. Revolutionary idk it's hard too... Lamar is someone i enjoy tuning into for a great song.
I’m a huge huge huge Pac fan. He’s my personal favorite but I ain’t even mad.
Del getting knocked out first round is wild
Aceyalone is one of the greatest wordsmiths ever but I still love the video! Great content from prob the last hip hop journalists we have left 😢
Need that east coast bracket asap !!! Now that will be 🔥
kyori so petty with some of those matches lol he know what doing.
I knew it was gonna come down to them 2 in the end I would've picked the other but im not mad at who won hes a legend as well W list
Ras Kass might be better lyrically but he hasn't made a project as complete as GKMC or TPAB. However, I don't know if Kendrick would make a song as heavy as Nature of The Threat or How To Kill God. I'm sure he could, but i don't think he would.
Dam this list shted on the bay area
The WTF moment happened at 1:15. 😂
Love this. King Kendrick is the goat.
Mr morale is mid imo, nah
If this was based on a "who's having the better verse" if they're on song together, who would have won the bracket?
If MC Eiht isn’t on this bracket. I’m gonna bust a gasket
Who tf is picking the game over kurupt
21:05 ''on HIS album exactly'' 😂
Earl v Blu is crazy hard.
So hitboy gotta see Ken and Myke gotta see Kyori
Feel like the Tyler and Kendrick seeding was kinda whack. Would’ve loved to see Tyler on the left side of the bracket and see if anything changed
Doc is not West Coast. He’s from Dallas 😂
my top 5 west coast mcs are
2pac
ice cube
ice t
xzibit and
B real
So glad to see Xzibit isn't completely forgotten! I rarely see any rap lists talk about him or bring him up
@@slylancey trust me i love what x to the z has done for the culture if it was bout personal taste he would be even higher i´ve been following his music since the 40 days and 40 nights era
I mean Kendrick is my 🐐 so I aint mad lmao 🤷🏾♂️
This bracket needs to be redone. This the worst one so far. Kurupt, Jay Rock, Absoul in the first round??? Then yall pick Game over kurupt…which I can live with but then pick eazy e over game??? 🙄 come on
Great bracket! Only rapper I thought was missing who could’ve made some rounds tough was mac dre possibly
Yall letting nostalgia cloud your votes mane
Mhm, I don't think pac has an album front to back better than blank face
@@EZ95 Lmao this was more about Vince vs Too $hort, Pac definitely deserved to make it to the finals
@@TreDoes. Lol I was torn on this one. Ramona Park broke my heart was my favorite album that year. Too short has a catalog of greatness, just like snoop he had eras. Short also had a song called "little girls" on his first album. Also I didn't like Kendrick vs Tyler so early
whether overtly or subtly, i don't think it's something you can discard in such discourses.
@@afrikankodo I agree this is just me yelling at my screen lol
Beezy being mc is great
When Microphone Mike falls at the first hurdle and Acey isn’t even listed you know this whole thing is a joke
No Xzibit is fucking crazy
Planet asia is the correct answer. I dont even know whos in the bracket yet i just clicked play
Mike's face😂😂
I mean. I would have bet the house on this bracket turning out this way. Knew it was gonna be Pac and K Dot!
2pac my favorite rapper ever and Kendrick is probably my 2nd favorite.
Del out in the first round? Who spiked the egg nog with some white lightning? 😂😂😂
I'm sooooo fuckin tired of people saying Snoop's No Limit run is weak. It's arguably the most solid period of his career
Where’s Xzibit?
Yea shoutoutout DOC but lowkey I feel Del is the best on this list
KING KENDRICK LAMAR. GOATED RAPPER.
Mike is funny af
I turned it off after Vince Staples lost
Kyori we NEED a REDO but with YOU in this shit with the guys to see if this goes the same way and I say that because of Del being knocked out first round cuz yes DOC is LEGENDARY but unfortunately his career was cut short while Del just KEPT putting out good shit after good shit after good shit 😂👌🏻💯
where’s mac dre!?
Does DOC even count as west coast? Cause he from Dallas but I get that Dre produced the project
2 Dot!
Crazy part is…YG is a way bigger artist in that region..like bruh it’s really crazy. But yeah I’d choose Q easily
BRRRRACKETS 🗣️🗣️🗣️🗣️
Dj Quick Suga Free Mack 10 e40 all of TDE black hippy Nipsey hussle snoop dogg dogg pound the game It's hard to choose between them.
KRS 2 and Kurupt not making it out the first hurt ngl
I'm picking Paris
People forget how HUGE Hammer was. He was arguably the biggest star in music behind Michael Jackson at the time
Wonder if yall picking the best rapper purely or complete package? Crooked might be a better RAPPER than pac...interesting though. Love these brackets!!
Put Pac and Kendrick in a versus and see who wins…I’ll wait
Lucky for everyone - except Pac, Cube and Snoop - that Gift of Gab wasn't involved in this.
Also shout out to Xzibit and Aceyalone.
Kendrick deserved to win. Seeing "old-heads" vote for a rapper in his 30s over one of the biggest icons in Hip Hop history speaks to what he's done. You already know his next shit will be next level too (as long as he doesn't get on his Andre 3000 shit and become a harpist).
Kendrick fell off hard and Pac still has him beat in every aspect
@@ptreznov240 He didn't fall off, he pivoted and evolved. "Has him beat in every aspect" is absolutely ridiculous.
@@thewalkingdunning-krugeref9664 he evolved into something worse and pac does beat Kendrick in every aspect, better catalog, better records, influence, etc
@@ptreznov240 I disagree on everything besides influence. I go back and forth enough in the comments, so let's agree to disagree. They're both great.
@@thewalkingdunning-krugeref9664 I agree they’re both great, it’s just there’s this weird push to make Kendrick the GOAT or something these days and I think it’s a little bizarre and messed up to the legends who came before that imo he hasn’t surpassed yet
I’m not rocking with Tyler over Soulo, that was crazy. And where was Fashawn 👀 lol all respect g’s
Bruh I had to pause the video @11:38. I cannot believe kyori did this. Hurt my feelings
Kendrick over Pac and Cube is crazy.
Too Short over Vince Staples?
What?!😮
Too Short cannot spit like that I’m sorry.
Just a opinion: When I think of West coast sound, I'm taking YG over Q.
Too $hort over Vince is criminal
No Planet Asia?
maybe im just a massive nerd, but no busdriver?
I love watching these but I don't understand the logic of who builds these brackets.
I would say Rass Kass over Kendrick
Damn y’all did YG dirty
tbh he did himself dirty after these trash albums after still brazy
I mean, after Stay Dangerous, he fell off musically.
I’m sorry, but YG isn’t event that good of an artist.
Cube the wackest in west side connection.
Kendrick easy
YG went out way to easy, the man lives and breaths LA. he raps over beats that embody the LA sound and his flow is LA. i love School Boy, but if i’m looking at it as a WEST COAST artist, YG is the west coast.
No Xzibit on this?
Kendrick over Pac??? The fucc? And where was Drakeo in the bracket? 3 quarters of LA have been doing a Drakeo mr me too for the past 5 years smh.
Brotha lynch better get a mention
Vince would most definitely say Too Short over himself, Vince don’t give a fuck about rap rankings 😂😂
