Kendrick Lamar, in my opinion, is probably the Tupac of the newschool rap. It's hard to find good rappers these days, but Kendrick Lamar is probably one of them. His music has soul, experience, and he's lyrically superior to most other rappers. What's your opinion on Kendrick Lamar?

It's hard to call him the "Tupac" of newschool rap. Although he has good wordplay, most of his songs DO NOT speak a story. Just being honest. He's still one of the best in todays era though. No doubt.

He's better than most rappers out there. My favorite song is Swimming Pools.

Hm, that's not how I meant what I said. I meant it as he's probably one of the most unique rappers today. Try to compare him with other rappers, and it's almost impossible. Unlike most, what he says is understandable, which is different to shit such as Rick Ross and all.

I mean, J Cole is neck and neck with Kendrick. Personally, I prefer J Cole. Again, rap is a form of poetry and it's about telling a story, which I feel J Cole has proven to be better at. He's mad lyrical honestly. They're both legends.

Of course, considering one of J Cole's idols is Nas, another legend. J Cole is also one of my favorite rappers. While it's true that he can tell a story better than Kendrick, Kendrick Lamar can still tell damn good stories.

Nas is my favorite rapper of all time, the best in my opinion. I'd put him higher than big and pac on my list. That's just how good of a lyricist he is. His flow is un-matchable.

Nas is one of my favorite rappers, but I don't have a specific favorite rapper. There are too many rappers I like to make one my favorite of all time. Newschool rappers, well, my favorite is probably J Cole, but there are some honorable mentions such as Logic.

There's also Lil Dicky, but his style is way different than most, bringing in a more 'comical' approach to hip hop.

I feel like Lil Dicky is a RiFF RAFF ripoff. RiFF started the comical rap shit up recently, and dude, he is so hilarious. I can't watch an interview with him in it without laughing. 

And yeah definitely agree with you, Logic is a great one. Along with G-Eazy.

To be honest, this isn't TheFineBros. If Lil Dicky rips off RiFF, it just gives more variety to rap, which is nice. And some of his music is actually good.
