tl;dr #1 - Nosetalgia Video

[Split]

Kendrick worked like 8 years to make it as big as he did.. thats a lot of figuring out exactly how to present yourself

Pusha slayed this verse with flow, lyrics, energy... seemed like he was just in the fucking zone. i agree with cake's interpretation

then you have Kendrick, who knows a collab with Pusha would be sick, and he probably wanted to just vibe off what Pusha was saying. So, instead of going from the heart/ just going OFF he focuses on how he's coming across in the track, says a whole lot of nothing, tries to look badass in the video/ seems overly dramatic

instead he spits a bunch of nonsense about shit that isnt really true, talks about his dad for like 9 bars to many on what was basically a flex piece, runs his flow all weird on a killer beat, and goes into concert mode where he looks cooler than he's rapping

If Kendrick had gone Section 80 on this verse, it probably wouldve been good enough that I woulda created an alt account to post it in the OM so i could nominate it for HOF


you could tell Pusha wasnt feeling the verse either and Kendrick was looking fake as fuck the whole time
