    Crooked fell off some, but I still give him the nod over KL any day.

    Does Kendrick even have quotables? Every time I attempt to listen to him he starts using funny voices forcing me to change to a different station.

    Both are absolute beast and i would love to hear them on the same track (which crooked is already on record to being open to it) but until i hear it happen, i just cant imagine word for word bar for bar anybody being able to get a dub on Crook. Plus apex predator is almost as good as a kendrick album.

    This

    Yup. also crooked has been around a lot longer and proven himself that he can be lyrically consistent, whereas, in my eyes kendrick still needs to release enough content to be considered consistent.

    i dont know what you mean by rapper. the better m.c. is kendrick
    m.c is supposed to move the crowd, as rakim says
    crooked i aint moving any crowds, neither is anyone in slaugherhouse
    can they spit bars, yes
    spitting bars dont mean much though if u can't connect with the people and get your point across
    a lot of those battle rappers can spit hella bars
    none of them can make a song like gucci can tho

    Stop it 5! It depends on the crowd. KL ain't moving ? in a crowd full of thoroughbreds. The minute he starts doing funny voices and his best bone thugs and harmony impression, he's getting boo'd off the stage.

    Crooked on the other hand, has a pretty dope delivery and flow, so people who like straight forward lyrics and that raw aggression will definitely ride with dude over the cartoon voice rapper.

    Also, lol @ battle rappers not being able to move crowds, when who moves the crowd the best determines who wins the battle.

    two totally different rappers...i pick crooked i though, he's more enjoyable to listen to and at the end of the day thats the ultimate test however:

    Albums: Kendrick, Kendrick has proven he can drop almost classic albums and Crooked really hasn't

    Content: Kendrick, seems like hes better as portraying what he wants to say than crooked

    Lyrics: Crooked, depending on how you view lyrics, Crooked is crazy lyrical but Kendrick is close and the message is better however Crooked is near the top

    Flow: Crooked I, this isn't close, crooked i is near flawless in far more songs than kendrick is

    Voice: Crooked I, again crooked's voice is the typical rap voice, kendricks is different but I don't think it's in a good way

    This is based on flow and delivery. KL wins cd vs cd. Apex predator was a disappointment imo.
