He is appealing to all you white kids, IMO.

I slightly misspoke when I said gangster rap. Kendrick does have some gangster rap tracks but many of them act as social commentary. My point was they're both considered conscious lyricist but often their best songs are their more aggressive, braggadocious and prototypical 'rap' rap songs.
In terms of dropping videos. I'm not going to do that. It's funny you dismissed Kendrick when compared to Tupac without listening to Kendrick outside of radio singles. Listen to good Kid, Mad City. That and To Pimp a Butterfly are about equal but I think gKMC acts as a better introduction to the argument for someone trying to a grasp on Kendrick.
