D Smoke on Kendrick's Reaction to His Music

[@hectorsdominion]

IMO he inspired by Kendrick, you can hear it in his music.

[@theroom.260]

And his voice.

[@Kinobambino]

nah they just cut from the same kinda cloth

[@Kinobambino]

@@hectorsdominion kinda cloth. Not the same quality

[@hectorsdominion]

@@Kinobambino oh I get it, sorry about that.

[@Donyaih]

The city been making music like this or in similar genre, we got ab soul we got school boy q we got Buddy etc some of these artist has been in development just as long or longer than Kendrick a lot of the artist aren’t even recognized. And D Smoke brother is SIR the singer so that speaks for the talent part of their family

Similar artist and backgrounds. One from Inglewood. One from Compton. Kendrick just made it before Smoke. Smoke been that nice and comes from a talented family of musicians/educators. The Farris family is legendary.

Is it me or do him and Kendrick sound similar?

[@DownInNebraska]

Yeah he does

[@DownInNebraska]

A lot of niggas sound alike In LA tho I k ow a few cats that sound kinda like d smoke

[@LurnWell]

Yep...But the similar themes and presentation of the visuals is even more peculiar than the sound. 🤔

[@MrActRyte]

It’s NOT u…

[@jordanporter5833]

This is something that plagued him when he first came out

[@juswolf22]

The crazy thing about smoke is he can play instruments, think he a black belt in karate or some shit, knows another language like this Nigga a real renaissance man.

[@MrRockit77]

He is an absolutely beautiful artist, in every since of the word.

[@JerseyMac11]

Bro is very well spoken. We need more of that in hip hop culture

[@Nomorequestionz62]

Most west coast hood dudes speak clear crisp and quote on quote proper they rap clear too listen to Kendrick Scoolboy Nipsey YG all of em

[@runegeezy]

Kendrick is trash. He's not as smart as D Smoke. D was a teacher. He graduated from UCLA. He's ACTUALLY smart. You can hear it in his music. He chooses words so perfectly. He actually rhymes and actually makes perfect sense in his raps. Kendrick struggles to speak in interviews. He frequently raps using words that don't make sense or don't mean what he thinks they mean. He frequently doesn't rhyme. He's not smart. D Smoke clears him in every metric 😂

[@Matt_Wilson01]

He was a spanish teacher, he is an educated dude

[@vtj7929]

If y'all haven't played his music....you gotta get on it ASAP!! Dude is HELLA SLEPT ON!!!!

Nahhh..."they" just sleep(y) in general....let em slumber. You continue to enjoy the REAL 🙏♥️💙

I've said since day one when I watched that show that they sound similar in voice and subject matter . But that's dope . K dot comes with some shit once every 5 years now we have smoke to fill in that void . And they family blood line is crazy . Mom's was singer , bro is a superstar singer and now you got smoke

Watching this after the Kendrick vs. Drake debacle, it's wild to see how aware D-Smoke was at the time. He gained connections with all the right ppl, spoke of the culture (a big thing to Kenny), and personally earned Kendrick's respect just for being the realest nigga he could be 🔥

[@anthernandez580]

D smoke is so much better than Kendrick. If someone gave d smoke all of the resources that they gave Kendrick he would be up there with j Cole. In my opinion Kendrick is only considered a great because of what he has represented rather than the actual quality of his music. D smoke represents the exact same thing but his music IQ is infinitely greater.

[@JoJo-vi9tp]

Nah thats just talking down on Kendricks talents. If anything, with the same resources, D smoke would dethrone either cole or drake. Kendrick Lamar easily tops out both J cole and D smoke in terms of quality in his music, lyrically and production wise.

[@jamesrivera5580]

Bro so many of his songs sound like Kendrick and this guy didn't blow up so he was like f****** 30 it's kind of corny to me you're the professional boxer Kendrick's a professional rapper

[@runegeezy]

D Smoke clears Kendrick ny every metric. Better bars. Better flow. Smarter. Stronger. Faster. Realer. More down to Earth. More aware. Smoke would body Kendrick and thats why he was so stand offish and hasnt put him on. He sees the threat cause Smoke is a real one and Kendrick is an inustry plant that can BARELY rhyme.
