    Most would agree Kendrick has had the midas touch in regards to most things recently however what would you consider his biggest flaw to be? Imo he can tend to come off as boring sometimes. Despite his work always filled with substance he can sometimes sound boring like a lot of people consider TPAB to be. What are your thoughts?

    That he had to mix his idea of being proactive with race issues with his music. Instead of doing each separately

    His conceptual way of approaching his music. I'm fine with his projects being conceptual but at some point I think he's going to have to drift off from that and just make music. I don't know how well he'll deliver when it comes to that.

    like XXL would say, his biggest flaw is to be the best, so that makes people feel insecure about their favorite artist

    In his own music? none that I can think of

    But I'd say he should stop doing too many features

    I think he always makes the right choice when it comes to creativity and making music. There's 1 or 2 things I wish he would change but thats personal

    Thats hard to say because he's a student of the game and seems to understand what works and doesn't work in hip hop. (topics, influences, etc)

    and being proactive with issues is exactly what you would expect from a great rapper... hip hop came out like this, it was a way to express what was going wrong in the world.
