    Honestly I don't even care, like yeah I been listening to kdot for more than 10 years and a lot of people on different forums can confirm this but It's not something to be proud of lol. Like I don't give a s--- if you're a new listener or not

    And I literally don't care what a few 15-yo trolls have to say :idk:

    It's like when Donald Trumps campaign made a bunch of fake twitter accounts of Hispanics to tweet the exact same thing at the same time in support of Trump

    These dudes are clones

    Quite disappointed in @able and that other mod to be honest. Mods been saying they gonna ban soldier from the kendrick section but they still let him s--- talk like that and ruin threads on a daily basis.

    Gonna be honest, I feel like the average age on this forum is quite low (mods included), specially when you compare this board to others.

    dont deflect this onto the mods lmao. there's literally no proof of Kendrick being signed to Def Jam ever apart from an interview where he says "yeah i was a little"
    If i'm being serious, the claim he was signed to Def Jam as a recording artist at 17 is shaky at best. If anything he was signed on as some form of helper and not an actual recording artist. There's interviews where he discusses a meeting at Def Jam and that's about it. You can find full rosters of unknown/unnamed artists that were former signee's of Def Jam, but a big name artist like Kendrick isn't? That's odd. Especially considering it'd almost be something to be proud of, "the best rapper currently used to be signed to our label"

    Tried to stay out of the original thread to avoid all these lames trying to rewrite history but yeah, there's no denying that he was signed to def jam.

    All the links are dead because that s--- was like 9-10 years ago, but you can still find some of that stuff on google

    http://rapradar.com/2012/05/22/kendrick-lamar-on-former-def-jam-deal/

    During episode 5 of the Hip Hop POV, Devi Dev reunited with long time friend, Kendrick Lamar. During their conversation, he spoke on Jay-Z and being signed to Def Jam earlier in his career.

    At that time, it was revealed that kendrick left as soon as jay-z left, which happened few days after he signed kendrick.

    Def Jam's official site has no mention of Kendrick being signed ever in the artist section but hey he said he was so it must be true
