Which Kendrick Lamar song is worse?

[DUNCANownsKOBE]

Swimming pools or poetic justice?

Both songs are in awful and make me wish Kendrick Lamar was a teacher at Sandy Hook Elementary School, but I'm curious which one is the worse of the two in everyone's opinion.

Just a warning, this thread is gonna draw a bunch of butthurt posts from Kendrick Lamar fans who think they're trendy and not mainstream for listening to Kendrick Lamar even though his garbage is getting played like crazy on the radio right now and he's as mainstream as it gets.

is it good i have never heard of him?

Yes. I wish I could say the same.

You don't know how to appreciate real music

I haven't heard the second one but Swimming Pools is horrid, except for the fact that i end up singing along at parts.

[Woo Bum-kon]

you, he has good songs.

Backseat Freestyle is terrible, though.

I don't know what it is but i cannot stand Kendrick Lamar's voice or style despite listening to his album 3 times

[DUNCANownsKOBE]

Agreed, his voice makes everything from him irritable to listen to.

His voice blows but the kid can rap.

Also, those are his two worst songs by far.

[monosylab1k]

I'll take a great rapper with a bad voice over a dog rapper like Lil B any day.

[DUNCANownsKOBE]

The difference is that when Lil B rhymes a word with itself repeatedly he's being deliberately ignorant and horrible. When Kendrick Lamar rhymes the word "drank" with itself repeatedly he's being 100% serious with a song about how grand daddeh had drinking problems and how he talks to his conscience.

He's also almost as bad as Jedi Mind Tricks the way he uses phrases like "backstroke in Chicago" that don't make any sense whatsoever but create a nifty rhyming scheme.

I do agree that Kendrick Lamar's voice is irritable, and I think he's doing it on purpose.
