Kendrick Lamar - More Than a Rapper

Diss song vs Battle of wits

First off, bravo to a fellow Gemini who came to teach, not just put on a show. Kendrick didn’t show up to entertain—he used the Super Bowl stage as a platform, setting the tone for the rest of the year during Black History Month. And those who caught the message—especially with Samuel L. Jackson’s presence—are beyond pleased. Just like the Underground Railroad, the message wasn’t meant for everyone. Because snitches.

Kendrick is intentional with his music and lyrics. Meanwhile, Drake? A manufactured, cookie-cutter pretty boy, propped up by music execs to play the role of a rapper. Let’s be real—not only did Lamar perform for free, but he also turned his set into an act of creative activism, broadcasting his message to millions worldwide. Even Mr. DJT (because we don’t speak 45-34-47’s name around here) got the old Negro spiritual message and fled. This wasn’t a rap battle—Kendrick marked the end of one of the biggest facades in music history. He took out the trash to burn.
