      Kendrick knows his value is more than can be described in money, it's intellectual, it's social, it's spiritual, it's esthetic, it's artistic.
      Kendrick (to me) has been the leading creative force in rap since To Pimp A Butterfly. Heck, even Kanye hasn't put out an album since then that could challenge Kendrick's artistic integrity.
      Drake may be No. 1 monitarily, but he knows Kendrick is No. 1 creatively

    Kendrick lamar is a rare diamond that can never be replaced in this life and the next. He's incredibly humble, and his evolution through music and life has been beautiful. I love his aura and how he connects with everyone as well as his fans. We must protect him at all costs. He's an amazing human being who isn't afraid to show his vulnerable side. Thank you, Kendrick, for inspiring all of us who battle with our struggles and to never give up or give in to the trials and tribulations that we all face in life. May you continue to evolve further, educate, elevate, and inspire all of us to be our best selves.

I like Kanye, I fuck with his music but I relate to Kendrick way more than I do to Kanye and Kendrick as a rapper, a lyricist, his flow, the things he talks about beat anything and everything Kanye has done. Without Kanye the producer, Kanye is nothing comparer to Kendrick. You take Kanyes production and the way he takes samples and turns them into beats, Kanye is average at best. No one is dissecting a Kanye verse the same way they're dissecting a Kendrick verse. Same thing with an album. No one is finding all these hidden meanings and piecing things together and feeling the way they do on a Kanye album the same way they do with a Kendrick album.
