Wow. I know Kendrick can get his his heat up... Fucker's like a locomotive at times, especially in concert (he's like the hip-hop equivalent of a Swans gig... So much goddamn evergy)... But I never have trouble understanding him. I guess to me he sounds more powerful and steady than *fast*
Fast... Well, painfully fast... To me is, like, Bone Thugs, or Eminem when he's really trying to prove something ("Rap God"). I've never really cared for fast rapping. I consider it separate from technical skill or lyrical chops. Fast is something that anyone can do if they practice enough... In Em's case, if they practice the same song enough... So I don't really see it as a measure of talent
Or ability.
But I guess Kendrick is pretty much a beast.
