    lol I was more so referencing American nerds. People consider me a nerd, but I know how to fight and have fought so I dunno.

    i voted for lupe because i like him a bit more and i think both of these artists are pretty close in terms of skills/talent.

    Lupe can rap better for sure but he's a volatile artist because he could either put out something truly incredible or something just garbage. Kendrick doesnt have that issue (so far at least)

    but we gotta remember, that this is a beef. it can potentially destroy a career. Lupe is gonna take it seriously, sohe's gonna come correct on a diss track, which i think is gonna ultimately leave Kendrick in shambles

    Mural

    Switch

    Kendrick doesn't have a song showcasing rapping ability from just those two tracks alone. Don't even try with look out for detox.

    too far a stretch imo, like in statistics, gay men and women votes look exactly the same on paper. Though I am curious, I wonder if there is a correlation between black people roleplaying as chinese kung fu masters and the lupe fiasco/wu tang fanbase

    Lupe doesn't need to win. Although I would like for him to.

    Lupe got 2 more albums left and he's done, and I'm willing to bet they will be amazing without a major label distracting him or telling him what to do.

    T&Y easily one of the most overrated albums in recent memory

    Not being Lasers =/= being good
