Kendrick Has Control

This is a moment in HipHop that is all so surreal, were all not quite sure what we are watching but one thing is for sure... Kendrick Lamar just made things interesting.

In short time Kendrick Lamar has done alot of things in HipHop, one thing he has never done was disappoint. This week has been one of the most tumultuous times in HipHop history. Quite possibly we are witnessing a power shift at the top of the hiphop ranking list. When Big Sean leaked the track "Control" featuring Kendrick Lamar and Jay Electronica that was not cleared for his album Hall Of Fame the internet was set ablaze.

The angry rapper feedback on twitter and through diss records was expected, but when you wake up, turn on ESPN and even they are recognizing Kendrick Lamar's verse as a top story is where everything gets fuzzy. Kendrick Lamar struck a chord with the entertainment industry and pop culture as a whole, his now infamous name dropping of artist he wanted to destroy and his venomous intricate lyrics has put everyone on edge.

This may very well be the best thing to happen to HipHop music in the last 10-15 years. The genre as a whole is moving back into that great time where lyrics, content and subject matter play the more prominent role to the success of a record. In the end isn't this what we all wanted? Rap was getting to be too nice and friendly, what ever happened to the good ole times when every rapper wasn't best friends and taking pictures with each other on instagram? Everything will be different after this, everyone is in battle mode as they should be. The kid from Compton is out for the crown while preserving the integrity of HipHop with every slayed verse .. Let the games begin!
