      william hutchinson I mean I'm not trying to give Kdot ALL the credit but at the time Kendrick was still relatively unknown and he called out all dudes that were at the top (at the time) Kendrick defiantly made an impression on those dudes.

    It’s called Control because Kendrick Lamar is from the West coast/Compton. Big Sean is from the Mid West/Detroit. Jay Electronica is from the East Coast/New York. They’re representing their respective parts of the US.

    I like to consider Kendrick's verse the equivalent of a speech given by a captain of a sports team. He [Kendrick] clearly felt hip hop, and the artists therein, where not pushing the genre enough and so he gave everyone a jolt of energy and inspiration with this verse. Also, a quick fact, this song was meant to appear on a Big Sean project but when he heard how much fire Kendrick brought, he gave the song to him.
    You've just got to love him.

    Seeing the two of you fully diving into hip hop culture and actually paying attention makes me so happy. Alot of people don't understand how this was a major outlet for African Americans to talk about what they grew up in and it was so negatively taken in the late 80's but has grown into this. Now people just judge the whole culture with radio songs which isn't even the tip of the iceberg when it comes to this culture. Ugh im so happy with you two. Sorry for ranting

      That's so true. Growing up black, in a predominantly white environment, I never rlly let people know that I liked hip-hop because of the way I'd be perceived. It's cool people are beginning to look beneath the surface now and that people are starting to appreciate hip hop culture for the depth it has.

    "What is competition, I'm tryna raise the bar high"
    is probably the best summary to pick one line for what Kendrick was doing. He wasn't at all talking down on the people he mentioned (although he did go on to have beef with Sean), the point was that he was trying to raise the bar. He's trying to raise the bar himself and bringing in the names of all these well known and respected rappers into it, he's forcing them to raise the bar for themselves and so in theory, hip hop as a whole in order to keep up with the competition. It's so dope.

    • @phunkmastaphish
      @phunkmastaphish Před 6 lety +7

    Sometimes, I feel like nobody is listening words anymore, only what they want to hear !
    There is no controversy in this particular part of the kendrick verde. All this part talks about is LOVE, RESPECT and COMPETITION SPIRIT as part of hip hop DNA.
    Kendrick estimates them at least as equal. Like sport, you need to compete with the best players to be the best. He loves the game, he loves to play and he loves his comrades but in the end, they are all rap game opponents.
    No diss, just love, respect and competition.
    Not the way I think but understandable as hip hop fan.
    By the way, I love the way how you're listening music. Keep it up guys !

    I also highly recommend Lupe Fiasco - Mural, its arguably lyrically one of the best rap songs ever.
    Also Jay Electronica - Exhibit C, one of the best rap verses of all time in my opinion.
    Edit: After realising you have the lyrics on screen for this song, you need the lyrics on screen for both songs

    Makes me extremely happy you guys decided to react to the control verse. You guys are great. also big sean and kendrick have a little bit of a beef as well. Seeming as its big sean's song - control. Its only known as the control verse due to kendrick's fire verse. Also every radio or tv interview big sean has done they ask him how it felt to get bodied on your own track which ticked him off. So big sean came out with a couple tracks dissin kendrick with no name mention but we knew who it was for. The kendrick also dropped tracks "- King Kunta, -Heart Part 4, -Element." Recommend those

    The reason Kendricks verse on on this was so iconic was because there has always been beef between west coast hiphop and east coast and Kendrick, from LA, said he was king of New york, ("I juggle em both"). Obviously was also huge because he came out and named all the biggest rappers at the time and said I got love for you all but I'm trying to murder you like try to come take this crown I ain't scared of nobody. He wasn't calling these people out because they were bad, he was saying I want you all to try to step to me because I really am the best. The people he named were the people he respected the most and he wanted spark some competition to prove he was the best.

      Needless Moose we agree DOOM is incredible but will they enjoy or understand anything without a genius explanation, maybe not. That's not a dig DOOM isn't the type of artist to listenti once and get everything I just don't think they will find any reason to hook into his work, more likely they will default cop out to "I can tell what he does with words is incredible but its not for me." I am sure simon won't like any of the beats either.
