Oh boy... Kanye going up against not only Drake, but Kendrick La-motherfuckin'-mar as well. Fuck.
I knew this was going to happen.
Personally, I know already, based on the pre-release material by all three artists, that Kanye's really got the other two by the balls. He's producing on a crazy new level and he's rapping (get this) is on a par with Kendrick's.
Pitchfork got one thing right, Yeezy's never been sharper, faster or harder, and frankly I dont give a piss about anyone else right now.
That said, I know Kendrick is going to annihilate Kanye in the sales department. Drake may well do the same. But this is Kendrick's first album since his cultural break-thru and bar-raising major label debut. Even if the critics think it's luke warm, fucker is going to sell like crazy.
So Kanye's clearly going to have the best album, but I think Kendrick is the most dangerous motherfucker in rap. If anyone poses a threat to Yeezy's proverbial "Throne" (Jay-Z is just Hand of the King at this point), it's kendrick. So loyalty demands that I wish horrible sales figures on him. Let's hope they don't debut in the same week.
As for Drake, he's already released his best album yet this year. Views from the 6 is probably going to suck. But If you're reading This... Is ill.
Kanye V. Kendrick: DAWN OF JUSTICE.
God damn, new Kanye new kanye new Kanye new Kanye ne....
