    he has the highest rated hip hop album of the past 15 years and part of it is because of his amazing songwriting.

    nice try though

    and his tone voice on hood politics is amazing... if you know jazz history then you should know why he couldn't rap with any other voice on this particular song (even though its not a jazzy beat)

    You say s--- like this all the time but I've never seen you back it up with anything substantial. I love Hood Politics, so I'll bite. Why, in terms of jazz history, could Kendrick not rap over this beat in any other way, even though the beat is not a jazzy beat?

    I thought the voice on Hood Politics was supposed to represent his younger self

    I don't know how it's related to Jazz history but I thought he spoke in that voice because he is speaking as K Dot?

    Criticizing Kendrick's song writing skills is like criticizing DMX's Eminem c--- sucking skills.
