i can’t tell the difference between a guy self-consciously doing conscious jazz rap, who deliberately positions himself as stylistic through-line to the 90s and puts himself in literal conversation with hiphop greats, and his “wack” contemporaries
why pretend to be an old head – you can just say you’ve never, once, listened to hip hop lol

I like what I’ve heard of Lamar so far. I like that stuff that sets him apart. It’s many of his contemporaries I don’t like.
