Removing lyricism from a rap debate just to make it fair for Travis Scott is hilarious😂😂
You're basically asking who is a better rapper if we don't count rapping?
In 2025, Kendrick Lamar had the No. 1 song in the country for 13 weeks. On top of "Not Like Us" reclaiming the top spot, giving him 14 total weeks at No. 1 in 2025.
He headlined the most watched Super Bowl halftime show in history!
He headlined the highest grossing hip-hop stadium tour in history!
He delivered multiple standout features, including what many consider a top two verse of the year on chains & whips.
And despite not releasing a new album in 2025, he still finished the year with the best-selling rap album (top 10 all genres) and the No. 1 rap song.
So yes, Kendrick Lamar was the best male hip-hop artist of the year.
Hold your tears... and tell your favorites to do better.
Good morning!
He BROKE Drake fans with just raps. No antics. No propaganda. No playing the victim. No pandering to streamers.
