WANZ - Wander

Kendrick Lamar says he is "trying to murder" rappers on Big Sean's "Control," a song that leaked Monday (August 12), which also features Jay Electronica. 

"I'm usually homeboys with the same niggas I'm rhymin' with," Kendrick Lamar says on the song. "But this is Hip Hop and them niggas should know what time it is. That goes for Jermaine Cole, Big K.R.I.T., Wale, Pusha T, Meek Mill, A$AP Rocky, Drake, Big Sean, Jay Electron[ica], Tyler[, the Creator], Mac Miller. I got love for you all but I'm tryin' to murder you niggas. Trying to make sure your core fans never heard of you niggas [and that] they don't want to hear not one more noun or verb from you niggas. What is competition? I'm trying to raise the bar high." 

The line above follows Lamar's claims that "new" rappers are currently left out of many "debates" he's heard about. 

"I heard the barbershops be in great debates all the time," Lamar says on the track. "About who's the best emcee? Kendrick, Jigga and Nas, Eminem, Andre 3000. The rest of y'all new niggas [are] just new niggas. Don't get involved." 

Another Lamar statement on the song addresses his status in New York and the West Coast, following a remark likely inspired by Tupac Shakur. 

"I'm Makaveli's offspring," Lamar raps, likely referring to Tupac's 1996 release as Makaveli, The Don Killuminati (The 7 Day Theory). "I'm the king of New York, king of the Coast, one hand, I juggle them both." 

Lamar's "king of New York" line was likely inspired by a 2010 selection, "Get Bizy," which featured Kendrick Lamar, Terrace Martin, Bad Lucc and Kurupt. "I'm important like the pope," Kurupt says on "Get Bizy." "I'm the king of New York. I'm live from South Central. I'm a Muslim on pork." Lamar's verse on "Control," which also references his "big homie Kurupt" by name, features the lines from "Get Bizy." "I'm important like the pope," Lamar rhymes on the song. "I'm a Muslim on pork."

Big Sean - Control (HOF) feat. Kendrick Lamar & Jay Electronica [Prod By No ID]

On his explosive contribution to Big Sean‘s Control, Kendrick Lamar insisted that his only peers were Jigga, Nas, Eminem and Andre 3000. “The rest of y’all new n**gas just new n**gas, don’t get involved.” With over a decade in the game, four albums under his belt and a reputation for impeccable mic skills, Lupe Fiasco begs to differ. The sequel to an acclaimed mixtape cut released back in November 2010, SLR 2 was created at the urging of the Windy City mainstay’s fans, but there’s nothing perfunctory about the way Wasalu Jaco tears into his target. Over an uncredited beatsmith’s simmering street boardwork, the rhymesayer reminds Lamar, and listeners, that he’s still a force to be reckoned with, delivering three solid minutes’ worth of head-spinning, wordplay-laced lyrical flames. He even lapses into German to deliver a message from der Führer: “Wie kommt er kann nicht so böse wie Lu bekommen? / That was Adolf, reacting to my new shit / Translation: how come he can’t be as evil as Lu get?“ Has Lupe succeeded in putting K Dot in his place? Your call, readers. This joint comes on the heels of new single #DopeFrancis, featured on our pages earlier this morning.

Artist: Astro
Producer: Oris Beats
Album: DJBooth Freestyle Series (#7)

Oft imitated but never equaled, the DJBooth Freestyle Series ran from February 2009 through June 2011. Its 250 total entries were the work of a veritable who’s-who of underground and emerging emcees, including rising stars like Kendrick Lamar, Wiz Khalifa and Mac Miller. Now, it’s back for a second round. The seventh entry in the recently-relaunched series comes courtesy of Astro, the Brooklyn wunderkind who brought us Yes I Know My G back in December. On I Don’t Know, an understated synth instrumental by Oris Beats accompanies the emcee as he showcases his mic skills in brisk, braggadocious bars. Astro doesn’t currently have any forthcoming projects on the agenda, but we’ll keep you posted on his 2014 plans as further details emerge.
