That's wassup. I can't really address folks who lament over his voice sounding like Kendrick but then have no comment on the actual content of his songs. That's exactly why I don't think he sounds like Kendrick. I'm a Kendrick fan myself, and I honestly think D Smoke sounds... more intelligent than Kendrick. They're two thoughtful lyricists who sometimes have a similar cadence, but after listening to Black Habits and his previous projects, Kendrick actually sounds like the little brother between the two. Just my take tho. *shrugs*
