    For sure, that's why it's a hard metric because there's no real way to judge for sure and definitely differs by region. I was in college when GKMC came out and that was everywhere, but I grew up on the west coast which I'm sure plays a big part.

    Nah, not strictly their word...they aren’t the end all be all...but they do have an impact on hip hop culture and have a lot of fans. Go to any hip hop publication and you’ll see bigly praise for TWU and FNL. Not to mention all the hip hop fans who think TWU and FNL are classics.

    I ain’t even shittin on French. No doubt he has hits. But Cole ate him alive on Diamonds and that wasn’t even a top 200 Cole verse lol

    I will defend the Wave Jesus to my grave haaaaann

    Kendrick has an entire machine behind him, he's bound to get the bigger exposure and ofc I will never deny his immaculate discography and ability behind the mic...

    That said, My guy French has a galore of hits/chunes, classic mixtapes and a number of memorable features that cemented him as one of the best artists to come of NY. He did his best to pick up his mentor Max B's wavy legacy, I'll gladly bump anything off Wave Gods + Mac n Cheese series over anything else

    He also introduced the world to Harry fraud. That alone is worth a hundred hits

    Whether or not French is a better rapper isn’t the discussion, it’s about hits and Kendrick just isn’t that kind of rapper. I think it’s equally absurd to act like this is a wash in Kendrick’s favour.

    Kendrick doesn’t have a song as good as unforgettable then again no one does cause it’s the greatest song of all time

    statistically kendrick has more hits, kendrick is more known, kendrick is a better artist both on features and by himself, what metric are you defining a hit? radio play? party play? kendrick wins in every category, it’s a total wash. humble alone was probably played more times than 90% of frenchs discography. not even to mention what that other guy mentioned, montana totally is a dj khaled type who wouldn’t have near his level of fame without abusing features

    I know this guy's most prob trolling cause somewhere on this site he said he's from Brooklyn lmao. No one from the entire US would ever agree kendrick has more hits than french. Unforgettable has more views than humble on yt or any other song the manlet has made. It has been played more than his entire discography has. Nice roleplaying tho I guess!
