Did Kendrick Lamar Ruin Future's "Mask Off?" | Everyday Struggle

[@obiwashere]

It's crazy how much people's ear toward lyricism has changed over the years that we'd get to the point where we're saying kendricks verse ruined mask off smh. The future is scary. No pun intended.

[@morobeats6603]

obiwashere lyrics aren't everything, mask off is a dope ass song and has zero lyricism

[@gambitwilson8623]

obiwashere Im a billion percent in agreement with you

[@_Maxten]

The lyricism doesnt have to be the reason that it "ruined" the song tho

[@morobeats6603]

Uncle Bernard it doesn't have to be the reason, but it could be a reason. Me personally I just didn't like what Kendrick was rapping about. I did however like nas's verse on the March madness remix.

[@theoneyedking]

the problem is, when someone says that they personally doesn't like something that kendrick drops. they get called a hater, truth is not everyone will like what an artist will put out. plus, just because someone says that they didn't like his verse on mask off. doesn't mean that "lyricism is dying"

[@owenklein5993]

Joe Budden saying GKMC isn't a conscious album is the L of the century.

[@Nick-po5eq]

Owen Klein That's what I'm saying lol. He doesn't know sht about modern hiphop

That's what I was thinking.

The song was already garbage in my opinion and Kendrick just made it better lol

Trillion Joyner Who thought that in 2017, an Album would be this successful. No singles released before the album, only a song to build the hype "The Heart Part IV". When you hear a song from DAMN, it makes you want to hear the whole album. Again and Again.

[@ASTROPLANET13]

I read this like kendrick's verse was so good that you can't listen to the original song... KDOT steals tracks, not ruins them.

[@t.j.7789]

EXACTLY!!!! When I hear the original I have to go back and listen to Kendrick's version!

[@trillgates2452]

Yo Ma word. Future with his simple ads lyrics and rhyming the same word over and over again. K Dot gave us something new.

[@prettygirlsnheals]

the only thing good about the original was the beat! The flow was trash.

[@Raxcblue]

Trill Gates y’all haters

[@dbz287]

Mask off felt like it was good but hollow, Kendricks verse is like a whole different song. Some want a simpler version where the beat carries the song vs an intense version focused more on the flow, lyrics, beat and etc.

[@Tamfel_85]

SALAD Very hollow.

[@jamalkeys36]

Rap vs Hip Hop

[@jackdamenace13]

If you're not a fan of lyricism, and flow, then you're not a real fan of rap. Mumble rap heads like pop hop!

[@tonybologna9071]

Just A Black Atheist nah I would say Mumble rap, as far as the migos, future all them are like the gangsta rap of today. Pop Rap would be like doing songs with Taylor Swift

[@thraitor7819]

Gibbs is gangster and so is jay rock.Not future, maybe migos cos they have some bars.

[@supanips2608]

Kendrick didn't ruin a future song future ruined a future song. Overrated rapper, Kendrick hopping on Mask Off made it 10000x better

[@soarlozer2808]

How is future overrated. The general consesus is he knows how to make a hit record. No one is out here calling him the best rapper alive or anything.

[@dylandruryformerlyyungjabb3913]

howboudah futures not even a rapper none of these mumble singers are can we stop callin them rappers

[@Delfiffer2]

Future sucks I agree

[@dominiquedespres3776]

Ricky Moss hes good

[@yankeeman291]

How can anyone hate what Kendrick puts out or is featured on? He takes any track he's on and takes it to another level every time. If a song is bad/mediocre (Mask Off) he makes it better. Y'all reaching if you think he made it worst.

[@ninobrownninobrown]

christian rivadeneira man they was right when they said know dot messed up sidewalk by the weeknd. go listen to that song and tell me he didn't. but he made mask off way better. I agree

[@blackgrlfly]

lol that sidewalks verse is better than this one

[@newrecruit100]

christian rivadeneira no he doesn't. This is the problem, people act like every track he puts out is fire. In Vice City, he had the worst verse.

[@newrecruit100]

TruMusic89 see goosebumps I think he was dope. It's actually my favourite part. But mask off? Yeah he did not belong on there. Collard Greens hex was dope. Vice City his verse wasn't as good as AbSoul, Q or Rock.

[@salsitude1629]

Did you hear untitled unmastered? Was trash

[@vtp3332]

Adam B I don't think it is at all. As I write this. let me just listen again. it's the beats maybe that may make it not conscience

[@revoksixth690]

billblastone definitely is a conscious album ....but yea the beats makes people think that it isn't conscious like ....Maad City and Money trees, Dont Kill my Vibe for example

[@theblvckninja6743]

You dont even know what a conscious rapper or album os if you think gkmc was a conscious album

[@crux15]

good kid maad city is a concept album about him growing up in Compton, growing out of a mix tape artist to a full fledged artist. Its an album dealing with self awareness and peer pressure and a whole bunch of other shit.

[@adriel.4887]

i have never taken Joe Budden seriously in my life

[@cyrusshah6175]

Drake said he have all the fans if he didnt go pop and stayed on some conscious shit....Kendrick flipped and showed how he got it staying conscious

There's a reason it's a REMIX, if you don't like it, listen to the original. Me personally being a Kendrick Stan, I didn't fuck with the first 1/4 of his verse but he went off afterwards. I like that it wasn't on the original version tho.

[@isaiasgonzalez710]

Mr. Player huh any Kendrick song u can chill to

[@ChrisStephens94]

Mr. Player Are you literally going through every comment you see that liked his verse and saying their wrong? It's opinion fam. Kendrick threw his own spin on the song the way he always does. If people like an artist because he's established himself as uniquely creative then I feel that is well deserved. I think it's always good of you to question people's admiration of incredibly popular artists, but at some point you're so counter culture that you're just picking a bone.

[@TapOnToeKnee]

Kendrick is the only one who understood to let you hear the flute and stoll kept a complicated rhyme scheme

You just proved his point. MAD L

[@210rzuniga]

facts. I can't get through Futures original Mask off cause of his second verse. it was almost a waste of beat cause it sounded to repetitive. thank God he changed it up with throwing Kendrick in it so I can actually listen to the whole song & not get bored of it

[@chunkadelic1]

[@TylerLiming23]

If you think Kendrick ruined this than I don't have any respect for your mental capacity. If you like mumbling rappers than you might have lost half of your brain out of one ear from listening. Fucking terrible that you would disrespect Kendrick. This verse is better than any verse Future ever came up with because you actually have to think about the bars. Molly? Yeah... that's real fucking clever. If you are reading this and your blood is boiling because you hate Kendrick, I'm sorry. Either stop listening to music or understand what he's saying.

[@TunefuIIy]

We're at a point in time where there's more than lyricism to be said. Producers are coming through the beats and slapping you in the face with it. I mean khaled made an album for Christ sakes and he's just an EP. Bars matter, just don't forget it's not just bars to.

[@willaborb]

He made it so much better

[@CloudTribe]

no one but retards thinks he ruined it

[@MegaMason4]

Joshua Lyden L you the corny type to follow the name. He doesnt fit with the song vibe. The song is a trap smoke and chill vibe then Kendrick roles in and gets mad for no reason. Kendrick has a good flow, it just doesnt fit with the songs flow. Dont just say its good cause hes on it smh

[@MegaMason4]

I'm sorry Juan, are we talking about music or making corny and played out comebacks? I'd like to see you hop on a fuckin beat too, it'd probably come out more disconnected and fucked than Kendrick sounds on this remix smfh

[@stormkidd6210]

kendrick is unique in his way . people will always have a view about the artist and lyrical content. finally someone with substance. So appreciate this type of material.

[@SKnowlton27]

[@dezrossjr.1629]

Mr. Player Kendrick floated all over that track and found the pocket way better than Futures mumbling ass lmao

[@MegaMason4]

Dez Ross Are you fucking deaf? Just because he enunciated his words doesnt mean he made the track better. His flow didn't work. The vibe was off. He was unnecessarily aggravated. I appreciate that he is deeper than future and has quality lyrics, but it just doesnt fit on this track, this is more of a high song or a chill song or a club song... not a think about what Im saying or Im gunna get revenge track

[@dezrossjr.1629]

Mr. Player You twisting my words and you getting all worked up over subjective opinions. We can agree to disagree. I thought OG mask off was dope but kind of repetitive and gets boring quick. It also lacked any creativity lyrically but thats every Future track. Kendrick was the missing piece the track needed. Threw some nice subs at Drake and Sean while also keeping it melodic towards the end. A remix is supposed to add a different vibe to it lmao its not supposed to be an exact replica of the original

[@MegaMason4]

Remixes are supposed to portray versatility, not bring drama to every corner of the rap game so all you simps have shit to talk about

[@maddox9511]

[@revoksixth690]

Charles Blue did you hear Joey Badass version ??? or Dave east ...they was flowing dope af

[@bradpitt4815]

Kendrick added a different feel to the song. His flow is sick and I personally like it.

[@jemmaleda2426]

With future's mask off no one had to think, just vibing. With Kendrick verse came in, people had to think and were overwhelmed because they could actually hear him as had bars.

[@TPBCollector]

I'll say that K always brings the fire but because the beat is made for a certain type of rap... the chemistry is off. I'll put it like this, I thought Mask Off was bumpin'. Then I heard Kendrick's verse and thought Mask Off was weak because it wasn't on par with K's verse. I don't care how many dislikes I get, the flutes ain't holdin' up to Kenny's verse.

[@prettygirlsnheals]

Kendrick's verse was heat but it didn't fit the vibe of the song. It's like a plate full of food. No one wants the different food on their plate to touch. Kendrick just took a huge wad of steak and put it in my ice cream. I love both, but they are best seperate.

[@byobtv1394]

Gabe Henry ctfu😂😂 i can relate to that

[@EATeezey]

Gabe Henry this analogy tho 😂😂

[@Franz_Morhart]

This is my problem with new Eminem guest spots. Never on beat, and never on topic. It's like the Biggie Smalls verse on Michael Jackson's Invincible; it literally sounds like he just grabbed some of his older shit, and just threw it on the track. Just look at his new Big Sean verse. Is it good? Yes. But it doesn't sound like it belongs at all.

[@sterlingarcher3861]

Gabe Henry best analogy

[@supashep1]

Gabe Henry Agreed. This is what happens when u mix drugged out rap and conscious rap in one song. It doesn't go well.

[@stewfu]

[@bambitazilla9464]

Kendrick is feared because he is respected. He has valid opinions and he’s keeping iconic rappers on point 🔥

[@CassDaMan1138]

If you mean Kendrick actually rapped on a Future song unlike Future just saying shit that rhymes then....yea I guess he did ruin it by those standards.

It wasn't kendricks style, personally didn't like it

[@heavenneedsaprince5094]

Kendrick made it better. I love how he still involves God in his music. I'm not saying that other rappers don't but Kendrick takes his time he also gives stories with it.

[@ManuelLopez-cy3xh]

I thought the same way at first. I felt like he don't belong on this beat. but when you really sit down and listen to what he saying. The man is a genius hands down.

[@bkjetsfan1]

Kendrick made the track great! He actual took the track. lol

[@Sonncee]

Kendrick gave mask off substance imo

[@steezuschrist2408]

Kendrick got bars. something severely lacking in the game nowadays. If we could get a Twisted Insane and Kendrick Lamer collab, that might just save us.

" their ears are trained to hear four words over a stanza". took the words right out of my mouth! that is so true about all these songs that have the same flow every song. and here comes kdot with a totally new and unique flow that even Drake can't steal, and nobody used to it so they don't think it sounds right. kdot, jcole, and logic are the only rappers I can think of right now that make songs that actually make me THINK. and right now I think we need to bring that kind of music back to our generation, cuz right now it's fucked up.

[@ryanfelix7768]

"Is GKMC a conscious album?" Who is this dude and did he even listen to the album. Someone needs to refresh Joe's memory.

[@IroniZaGoblin]

People ride Kendrick waaaaaay too much. His stans are getting worse than drake stans

[@cjjames5329]

Ironizagoblin but to be fair Kendrick has proven that he is an amazing artist. So, I can understand why the stans are starting to get more cocky. I'm a big fan of Kendrick but if he puts some wack shit out I'll call it what it is. Tbh, this verse was okay but definitely not his craziest ever

[@whitebuffaloblacksheep]

Do you not see his appeal? You think he's overrated? Don't let fanboys turn you off from good mysic. I think the dude is one of the most talented lyricists out, but I like lyrical hip-hop, so he's already in my wheelhouse.

[@titaniumbat7820]

Ironizagoblin I don't think he's the best of all time. But he's really good. He's at least in my top 20. His mask off was kinda "meh" to me. That Joyner Lucas guy went hard.

[@newsfocus6383]

Ain't gonna lie, something was not right about the song, kendrick kinda ruined it 😴

[@Stay_ClassyYT]

bola jaybee the way he sound of the song made me dislike the song

[@Useruwydhdbwkdjwj]

i agree. kendrick can't flow he cant set a vibe in which mask off needs

[@L3GITJESTER23]

bola jaybee nah this shit was flame

[@sckilla9162]

Go back to listening to those trash ass Mumble rappers then scrub....

[@r_u_conscious782]

Joyner's version was the best though

[@Mattthadony]

[@inxigo8363]

Kendrick did a great job on Bad blood! Favorite by far.

[@papi_sativa]

akademiks made a great point about how remixes used to be

[@M360-w6o]

Everyday struggle used to be so good during this period... it rivalled Breakfast Club

[@elton8650]

Dj Akademiks’ reaction at 2:40 was the same as mine when Joe tried to argue Gkmc wasn’t a concious album. I’m like itch you dumb

[@alexshlien972]

As listeners, we should have the right to have opinions and call out what we like, and don't like. We don't need to love every single song that is put out by our favorite artists.... Goosebumps didn't need Kendrick, but now travis has to deal with that, and so do we. Also, Mask Off didn't need a remix by Kendrick AT ALL. WHY WOULD YOU EVER hinder a perfect track like that? Thats my opinion. Don't jive with everything thats out there guys just because its cool. Have your own opinions!

0:56- 0:58 ... Joe said ," hear big Sean flow"
