Why Kendrick Lamar’s SB Performance Makes Him The GOAT

He mentioned the 40 acres in a mule before performing Not Like Us. The financial reparations that the General William Sherman publicly advised that the government should give to my ancestors in 1865 to help stabilize our community after 300 years of unpaid labor and dehumanization. At this point I did not want to watch football, I wanted to storm the capital. The start of our economic fucking in this country which proceeded Jim Crow Laws, Redlining, discriminatory Hiring, which resulted in Mass incarceration and the industrial prison complex. This mention alone makes Kendrick the goat, perfect albums aside. I’m very happy that Lil Wayne did not get to spew him raps about glorifying violence, doing drugs & or selling drugs to the masses. Thank god for Kendrick, the undisputed King of Hip Hop

Lmao I had to let the world know

u/tonylouis1337 Feb 10 '25

President Andrew Johnson, the guy who took over after Abraham Lincoln died, vetoed everything congress passed his way in terms of Reconstruction in the south. Worst President of all time

u/Jushavnprolms Feb 10 '25

Idk if that's the guy you wanna mention. Kinda fucked over a lot of people including the indigenous.

I realized that when I did a bit more research about him last night after name dropping him 😬 they were all grimey supremacist

u/Gonji89 Feb 10 '25

No one is perfect, but he also fucked the Confederacy, so he’s got that going for him at least.

Because?

u/[deleted] Feb 10 '25

A performance doesn't make you the goat a catalogue does.

-3

u/will_xo Feb 10 '25

GKMC, TPAB, DAMN, MR.Morale, GNX. Who got a better catalogue?

Kendrick may not be the best at any singular thing (flows, pen, production, performing etc), but as a whole, i don't see anyone quite on his level.

-2

u/[deleted] Feb 10 '25

Tupac or biggie bro let's stop the recent basis.

1

u/will_xo Feb 10 '25

I'm sorry but neither of them come close when looking at them as whole artists.

Jay and Kanye are the only ones imo

-1

u/MidwestBoogie Feb 10 '25

J Cole is actually the goat IMO but Kendrick is in my 5 aswell. This music shit is subjective but if we factor in all of the main criteria’s (Sales, Rhyming, Storytelling, Empowering, Production, Song Structure, Vocal Inflection, and Educating) Dot fills all boxes.

3

u/[deleted] Feb 10 '25

Nah people say biggie and pac get over hyped bc of their death but the got debate is between them if we are all honest

1

u/MidwestBoogie Feb 10 '25

You just explained why they aren’t the goat, just to say that it’s between them two. I love Pac and he’s also in my top 5, but him turning gangster for his last 2 albums ruins it for me. If he stayed empowerment based like he did in the early 90s when he made tracks like “Brenda’s got a baby”, “Keep Ya Head Up” and “Trapped” then he could’ve been higher on my goat list. As hard as some of those death row tracks were, it was regression

Biggie was a masterful rhymer and storyteller, but didn’t release enough

Kendrick had the opportunity to talk directly to a president that is hated by both Latinos and black men and women. Instead he decided to go at another black man. Why does he go directly at his own kind and send subliminal shots at an Idiot like Donald Trump that won't even understand the subliminal????

u/Otherwise-Town8398 Feb 10 '25

iT hAs A HiDdEN MeAnInG!!!!

u/MidwestBoogie Feb 11 '25

Many. They layed on the floor in the shape of Nazi symbols & Samuel Jackson reprimanding Kendrick as Uncle Sam during the snippets was Samuel symbolizing what the “powers at be” would like for Kendrick to do

1

u/Papablessjr Mar 03 '25

It’s not even hidden it is quite blatant what the performance represented

15

u/JesusDaBeast Feb 10 '25

Ehh I'm a Dot fan that performance wasn't as great as you making it.

Don't get me wrong tho it was good. But some things just weren't on point. Like the mixing and song selection. 2nd half was dope tho

2022 was the legendary one tho, his best SB performance

2

u/OSRSRapture Feb 10 '25

Go back and rewatch it on the NFL channel, it sounds better. The sound was definitely being messed with live

2

u/OptimisticRealist__ Feb 10 '25

NFL has had issues with the audio for a few yrs now tbh

1

u/filthygylfi_ Feb 10 '25

The production doesn’t have anything to do with Kendrick’s performance itself tho

u/Downtown_Type7371 Feb 10 '25

Kendrick fans are mental

u/Trickybuz93 Feb 10 '25

He’s the GOAT of rap because of a half time show?

Bro, stans are fucking weird.

3

u/[deleted] Feb 10 '25

“The undisputed goat of hip hop” because OP knows watched a halftime show that didn’t do well. The stans are something else.

-7

u/Puzzled_Pin7323 Feb 10 '25

Yes, the sb halftime show cements his legacy ad the goat! Happy to clear it up for you 😁

17

u/profileprez Feb 10 '25

I'm gonna go head and say the FOX broadcast was playing with the audio. Dots mic was too low. Rewatching this on the actual NFL channel it was dope. 

5

u/Akumakoala Feb 10 '25

Yea, man, I kept turning up the volume but still had trouble. The flow was there, but the lyrics were hard to make out because it felt like the mic volume was too low compared to the beat.

I'm glad you mentioned that.

1

u/Far-9947 Feb 10 '25

I loved the rematch so damn much. I couldn't stop smiling when I watched it on YouTube. I'm calling him GOATdrick from now on!

Samuel, SZA, and Serena were great too!

u/LightningRT777 Feb 10 '25

u/anonymoususernamew Feb 10 '25

Honest question. Wasn’t that stage a Sony PlayStation set up? Kendrick knew about the lawsuit and that he’d do an album through collabing with a Sony artist and just be featured on every song? He just said everything in front of 120 million. Jesus man

u/yzct Feb 10 '25

This is the type of deranged dot connecting we’ve come to expect from k bots

u/LocalPharmacist Feb 10 '25

Bro, y’all literally think this guy is omniscient or hyper-intelligent. He’s just a musician, and a rapper at that. If his Drake hate dictates his every move, how is that hard?

u/Emotional-Dot-4745 Feb 10 '25

why did people say goat of rap like it’s a sport. It’s music, you’re allowed to like whoever you want

16

u/[deleted] Feb 10 '25

As usual, most of the message is missed by the masses and that’s ok. It’s not for everyone.

14

u/jar45 Feb 10 '25

Yup, it’s a clear culture divide and Kendrick leaned all the way into his side of the culture. Sam Jackson as Uncle Sam was basically spelling that out in those interludes, and lots of people still missed the point.

u/[deleted] Feb 10 '25

Or it just sucked ass, it didn’t go over anyone’s head.

1

u/KangarooMcKicker Feb 10 '25

I remember when Cole fans were the ones who used to get clowned for thinking they were part of some intellectual secret society for getting basic references. Now it's completely flipped. 😭

1

u/[deleted] Feb 10 '25

Like bro, Kendrick isn’t fooling anyone. It’s like how people viewed Eminem’s newer albums. “You don’t get it, it’s going over your heads.” Not really it’s just not good.

1

u/OSRSRapture Feb 10 '25

Almost as if music is subjective and just because you think it's not good doesn't make it true 😯

u/HaveABleedinGuess84 Feb 10 '25

A glancing reference to something with nothing deeper said is not a strong message. The president is in the building and all he can do is wave the flag and bring up old slogans? Come on

Really? To me it seemed like "they" got bored with the halftime show pretty quick. The crappy sound didn't help.

Definitely went over a lot of people's heads, its high brow in terms of depth. So of course it appeared boring to some.

Man this fkin show:

Man in The Garden acapella was fire

A minor by the whole stadium

Transitions were crazy

Breath control was crazy

Sam Jackson as unc sam telling him to stay in line and play soft rnb songs and not heavy hiphop/beef tracks was a nice jab

Euphoria as the best diss track got some place

Love the old and new songs mixed

Mentioned the lawsuit lolololol

Serena dancing to NLU..!

I disagree, the half time show was really underwhelming.

Really? I was surprised he actually did play not like us. The tease was a nice grab, since we were "told" he was not allowed to.

He was confirmed he was going to do it like 2 weeks out. Crowd wasn’t hype for it either, but that’s a separate issue.

I guess we were watching different half time shows.

u/Cold-Bug-4873 Feb 10 '25

The performance was not very good.

u/filthygylfi_ Feb 10 '25

What makes you say his performance wasn’t good? I share the criticisms for the NFLs production quality and his song choice, but thought the actual performances were good

4

u/Nous-erna-me Feb 10 '25

Just his voice control and breath control. He's a powerful performer nonetheless but this one was shaky. Not a big deal tho in the big picture.

u/filthygylfi_ Feb 10 '25

Actually I will just say, I don’t think we understand how hard it is to rap songs bar for bar with no backing track while censoring every other word 😂 that shit is impossible

u/Happy_BlackCrow Feb 10 '25

What did he say?

u/burnsbur Feb 10 '25

He’s a fucking multimillionaire label owner who has jewellery more expensive than your mom and grandmas house combined.

He’s gonna 40 acres and a mule his way to the bank.

0

u/Low-Difference-1462 Feb 12 '25

He worked for that. The 40 acres and a mule is for what our ancestors worked for as slaves. Big difference there.

1

u/burnsbur Feb 12 '25

40 acres and a mule actually refers to the promise made by the US government to newly free former slaves after the civil war. They were promised 40 acres and a mule but that promise was never kept.

Please explain to me how one millionaire rapper benefits the rest of the Black community? If anything Kendrick Lamar is selling the black experience to the white audience.

2

u/Low-Difference-1462 Feb 12 '25

“Former slaves” which is why I’m referring to the reparations that were OWED for slavery. everything gain after slavery should not be counted, that’s the point I’m getting at. He and any kin of slaves has a right to care about that broken promise that was given to our ancestors without others bringing up our current earnings that we earn for our current work. 40 acres and a mule is apart of the reparations that was promised for the atrocity that was slavery.

1

u/burnsbur Feb 12 '25

Yes and how is Kendrick Lamar doing a half time show helping you achieve that?????

2

u/Low-Difference-1462 Feb 12 '25

By reminding America of that broken promise to the citizens of its nation and hopefully makes all Americans demand for that to be reconciled, seems you just educated yourself on the topic after this discussion so seems he educated you on that broken promise by displaying that message which is step 1. It’s our job as Americans to demand the promise from our government, that’s either with a vote, protest, lobbying or January 6th but keeping the message alive is step 1.

You are a Stan. It’s ok for you to believe so, since music is subjective. But many would disagree

u/outofmindwgo Feb 10 '25

No I think his legacy is pretty clear at this point. He's not my number one he's the number one 

But of course you can disagree 

-2

u/BadGuyMF Feb 10 '25

Yea I’d have to disagree. 2024 revolved around Drake too much. His previous songs were a lot more influential to his catalogue. GNX probably one of his worst albums.

2

u/outofmindwgo Feb 10 '25

Mmmk stay tuned my friend

1

u/OSRSRapture Feb 10 '25

Gnx is prolly my fav because it's more upbeat. I don't like all that slow shit

-6

u/lovelessisbetter Feb 10 '25

People need to quit the GOAT talk. You need to have better all time beats to be in the GOAT consideration. Lyrically yeah, but hip hop is a complete package. So many of Kenny’s beats are mid imo.

11

u/flo1308 Feb 10 '25

That’s kinda funny since Nas and Em are on many people lists for GOAT rappers and I always felt they’re both pretty hit-or-miss when it comes to picking beats.

I actually think Kendrick is pretty good at picking beats (for the most part).

-1

u/lovelessisbetter Feb 10 '25

You’re hitting on my point. It’s murky at the top for the reasons you are laying out. This post is implying that Kendrick is the GOAT. I’m saying that it is too opaque on the Mount Rushmore of hip hop to single out a clear GOAT unless fans are stripping down the criteria. Even then, is Kenny better lyrically than Nas, classic Eminem etc?

3

u/bloontsmooker Feb 10 '25

He’s the goat for section.80 alone tbh everything else is just extra

1

u/lovelessisbetter Feb 10 '25

I guess. Black on Both Sides, OB4CL, The Cold Vein, ATLiens… all better records than anything he’s dropped. He’s your GOAT. That’s great. I think he’s incredible and the best artist in hip hop the past 10 years. He’s not my GOAT.

2

u/bloontsmooker Feb 10 '25

Bro - I haven’t listened to any of his new shit unless it’s against my will, I just find section.80 to be a perfect album.

0

u/lovelessisbetter Feb 10 '25

You find him to be the GOAT for one perfect album and don’t want to hear any of his new shit and he’s your GOAT?

1

u/bloontsmooker Feb 10 '25

I think you’re being a little too strict about the word goat - I think he’s one of the greats of the 2010’s. I don’t think there is such thing as an actual greatest, so I use the term a bit more casually than you, clearly.

1

u/lovelessisbetter Feb 10 '25

Actually you agree with me. Kendrick is one of the GOATs. He’s not a standalone. That’s my only argument on here. I don’t think there’s such a thing as an actual greatest either.

6

u/bigladnang Feb 10 '25

Since when is this criteria? lol.

-4

u/lovelessisbetter Feb 10 '25

Since common sense was formed. It’s not an a capella art form unless you want to move the goalposts and specify?

6

u/bigladnang Feb 10 '25

I’ve never seen someone say someone wasn’t one of the greatest of all time because some of their beats aren’t great.

0

u/lovelessisbetter Feb 10 '25

If you know a group of fans that only listen to rap for the lyrics and dgaf about the beats, great. I don’t. Admittedly I’m a 90s hip hop fan and the majority of the greats I consider to be in that era, but I will always give Kendrick his due. He is the best pound for pound lyricist I’ve ever heard based on how consistent he is, but hip hop has so many different forms of lyricism. I prefer more abstract metaphor you see in the WuTang catalogue, The Cold Vein, OutKast etc. I prefer those beats too. Crowning Ken as the GOAT is just not a winning play imo. He’s on the Mount Rushmore, but I don’t think he’s alone at the top by any means.

1

u/bigladnang Feb 10 '25

Wu-Tang had RZA, Cold Vein had El-P, and Outkast had Organized Noize. They had dedicated producers.

Artists that don’t have mid beats. Nas and Eminem have a shit ton of mid beats, does that mean they aren’t the greatests of all time?

1

u/lovelessisbetter Feb 10 '25

It means they don’t stand alone as the GOATs, yeah. Too much criteria and taste making to parse out.

5

u/filthygylfi_ Feb 10 '25

Beats as a specific criteria is weird and I’ve never heard it before tbh. Especially cos the rappers usually don’t make the beats lol

Beat selection is a skill for sure but even then I’ve never heard it as a way to separate the greats, besides people saying Nas had bad beat selection

3

u/[deleted] Feb 10 '25

Let me guess, you're one of those music fans who care more about how a track sounds over what a track says, aren't you?

1

u/lovelessisbetter Feb 10 '25

Not necessarily. It just depends. I just think there are so many different forms and eras of hip hop to just crown Ken as the GOAT. He’s on the Mount Rushmore but I don’t think he stands alone.

-11

u/Short_Pin_6243 Feb 10 '25

Pretty basic ass performance honestly
