"Kendrick killed his SNL performance (link)"
Mon Nov-17-14 12:01 PM by spirit

I like how he switched up the flow/delivery from the studio version. He f--king killed it.

random side note: Something about how Kendrick is delivering his "i" verses reminds me of ODB. The half-finished braids look definitely does.

Be honest Spidey...

Because your comparison makes no sense. It's definitely not "black punk steez"

I'm honestly curious now what gave you that impression?

Listen man, I think dude is talented, just don't think he is the second coming like so many do. To each their own…. I watched the episode live that night, and again in the og post. There is just so much other ish I'm on right now that I think is so much doper. Can't deny dukes energy and passion, glad you enjoyed the performance….

i absolutely loved it. but i'm a huge st. vincent fanboy, so...you know.

but i was laughing my ass off at the twitter response to her performance. lots of people were SO PUZZLED by annie's look, sound, choreography, etc. they were totally turned off and were questioning if it was really even music, acting like it was the weirdest shit they've ever seen. i was like "you fuckboys need to expand your listening habits!"

That was Canadian Chantal Kreviashcuk playing piano on the second song. I had exactly ONE gig with her around 15 years ago. He musta hooked up with her through Drake cause I heard he hired her for the some writing/studio work a couple years ago.

I've seen Kane, KRS, The Roots, Q-Tip, Heavy D, Slick Rick & Doug E Fresh do they thang on stage. Shit Hammer still gets busy live. So overall it was cool it didn't wow me, solid performance.

so seriously.

And no need to list the greats you've seen live to somehow validate your opinion.

You've seen those peeps? Cool. I have seen some of them too. The hell does that have to do with anything?


That's that good hate seeping in. Let the negativity go. You are all in this thread multiple times like you are defending something. Why are you checking back so much? It's weird.



People thought it was dope. That's it.

You didn't feel it. Okay, that's strange but to each his own. The strangest thing is you keep coming back in this thread dropping names of rappers and other artists you enjoyed live to somehow prove your opinion is better than ours.


Sh!t now that I type it all out you are kind of a weirdo.

this was pure soul power.

dude gave his all. wish more cats would spit with this kind of passion and vision.
off the top of my head i can't think of a television show performance from a rapper
that impressed me more than this display of intensity. it transcended Hip Hop.

maybe thats why some of yall are mad.
