His voice makes him pretty much unlistenable to me.

it dropped today. i copped it.

good shit. only problem i may have with this is that he leaked so much shit from it; guess he needed to just to generate a nice buzz. that ROTC interlude though......that shit is real vicious.

LONDON! · Post by **LONDON!** » Thu Sep 16, 2010 12:46 am

if i can't get it from any of them guys shottin(selling) mixtapes around here, our just have to wait for him to push it out for free to the customers on the net like he said on that youtube vid, because i don't have a credit card and i ain't really into paying for shit over the net anyway, unless its sending cash to an sending address

I thought I was the only one. His voice sounds like wet fingers massaging a cheap inflated balloon. I think he's awful.

Dr. Dre name drops Kendrick Lamar. Taken from dubcnn.com:

Kendrick Lamar Catches Dr. Dre's Ear; Drops New Track - By : Rud - November 21, 2010

History repeating itself? Lets hope so! Years ago Dubcnn broke Bishop Lamont online to the world and thanks to his grind and persistance Bishop caught the ear of Dr. Dre and he told the world of his interest on Big Boy's Neighborhood on Power 106 and the rest is history!

This week, when he premiered Kush featuring Snoop Dogg & Akon on the show, Dr. Dre name dropped Top Dawg Ent artist and Black Hippy Kendrick Lamar as an artist he admires and is about to meet and work with! Well as you all know Kendrick Lamar formally known as K.Dot is the Compton spitter we have been supporting since he emerged!

Our first update was way back in May 2007 and since then we have dropped countless tracks, mixtapes and updates about him under both the K.Dot and Kendrick Lamar monikers.

This week, following the release of Kush and the name drop on radio, Kendrick Lamar released a new track entitled "Look Out For Detox" where he showcases the talent and flow that first caught our ears as K.Dot. Check it out below!

Kendrick Lamar - Look Out For Detox

As always Dubcnn is the HOME for Westcoast Hip-Hop for both established and emerging artist! Huge credit to Dre for recognising fresh new talent and to Kendrick for his grind. We'll have the latest news and media as it emerges.

Not bad at all but I guess I am not really one for this kind of rap. I enjoyed what I heard well enough but probably would not seek out more. I feel basically the same about Fashawn, so not that surprising.

Tech N9ne feat. Oobergeek and Kendrick Lamar - "I Like Music"

http://www.refinedhype.com/hyped/entry/ ... ove-music/

As much as you can rightfully call Tech N9ne's music horrorcore, the man's really reached the heights he has is because he also knows how to have a good time. Case in point, new single "I Love Music", a straightforward anthem featuring Tech's peerless flow and an impressive verse from Kendrick Lamar and the hilariously named Oobergeek.

Speaking of which, insane flows from the Kansas City Chief are nothing new, so I'm more interested in this for what is says about Kendrick. We already know the man can do intense lyricism so it would have been good to hear him switch up his flow and really try to ride, but I can't really fault the man for sticking to his strengths. Like, for example, appearing in the background of Dr. Dre ads.

Either way, I'm sure N9ne's upcoming album, "All 6′s And 7′s", out of course on June 7, will outsell 99% of the major label releases. Enjoy.

Hiipower and this RR joint are both dope as fuck. I've previously checked for this kid, but always get annoyed by his voice...but these last two joints have been really dope as fuck.

ardamus · Post by **ardamus** » Sun Jul 03, 2011 8:46 am

Section.80 dropped yesterday.

If he does the right video for "No Make-Up", I could see at least MTVu picking it up.

Shots fired at Odd Future on "Ab Souls Outro".

ardamus · Post by **ardamus** » Mon Jul 04, 2011 8:50 pm

Upon further listen, its good to hear someone of his young age experiment like he has on this album. Especially with tracks like "Chapter 10" and "Ab Soul's Outro". I'd say give this album a definite listen if you have the time. He's ahead of his time for emcee in his age range.

anyone listen to Habits and Contradictions?

I'm bumping it right now and it sounds pretty great.
