I think Kendrick covered a LOT of ground in Section.80 but his deficiency vocally detracted a lot. Not to say Ab-Soul doesn't have the same issues (He does, especially on earlier work), but Ab makes it work for him more IN MY VIEW of it. I'll agree that Kendrick has the best songwriting ability of the four Black Hippy members.

I think they'll all have standout moments. But I thik Ab's gonna be the one with the hardest bars.
