Adam22 Calls Out Kendrick Lamar Amid YG’s Abysmal Album Gross sales

Kendrick Lamar has gotten fairly a little bit of flack on-line for not sharing something on social media in regards to the new album from YG, which is at present affected by disappointing gross sales. After all, it is because he was one in every of many artists to affix Okay.Dot at “The Pop Out” this June. Additionally, there are a number of other ways to have a look at this argument. Kendrick’s defenders will carry up their previous collaborations, the live performance itself, and their lengthy historical past as greater than sufficient help, and also will carry up that he would not even use social media like that for anybody or something. However others like Adam22 suppose that he might do extra, and do not perceive why we let him be so mysterious even when we do not understand how he might’ve supported his West Coast colleague behind the scenes.

“What did Kendrick do for everyone?” Adam22 requested about Kendrick Lamar amid Wack 100’s complaints that Adam and others are “nitpicking” and do not actually know what is going on on between one another. “Why did not he publish YG’s album?” Adam went on. “That is what lots of people need to know. *laughs* I am simply saying. After the entire L.A. bought behind him so laborious, does he not owe, you understand, slightly little bit of a glance right here and there? Possibly do a tune with any person for his or her challenge?

“I imply, it would not look like the most important ask,” Adam22 continued. “Why does all people simply permit Kendrick to simply exist on this mysterious, quiet little field away from all people? After which it is like he isn’t anticipated to hop on anyone’s challenge, to do any regular rapper s**t? I do suppose it is a first rate query. It will’ve been good if Kendrick shouted out YG’s challenge, proper? That might’ve been him behaving like a standard individual, he is so mysterious. I wager if he was nonetheless cool with Drake, Drake would’ve posted his album. All of them confirmed up out of the goodness of their coronary heart. It is simply type of bizarre while you’re doing stuff for any person who would not need to return the favor, proper?

“If Akademiks put out a documentary, and I used to be all up within the documentary, selling the documentary, helped him out with the documentary. After which six months later, I put out a documentary… Crickets. Ak would not shout it out, would not publish about it,” Adam22 concluded. “It is fairly simple to publish about one thing. I did rather a lot for you while you have been in the very same place. And also you could not return the favor? That makes me really feel like that is type of a one-sided friendship. Why can we not ask of Kendrick the identical issues that we might anticipate of, like, anybody else? I am simply questioning why they did not get one thing in return. It will’ve been good. Yeah, I simply suppose it is bizarre.”
