Kendrick Lamar declared himself “King Of New York”
It has been a little more than 48 hours since the occupying force of
Kendrick Lamar declared himself “King Of New York” on his monumental
verse on Big Sean’s “Control.” Hip-Hop has been served notice that
Kendrick has claimed superiority over his peers, putting himself on the
pedestal of the greats.
Newtonian physics tell us that “for every action, there is an equal
and opposite reaction.” You didn’t really think hip-hop wouldn’t respond
to this, did you? Over the last 36 hours, hip-hop has responded in
force. Some find Kendrick’s braggadocio refreshing while others find the
Good Kid’s gall to rather offensive.
