9th Wonder & Young Guru Debate Kendrick’s “Control” Verse (Video)
Wooo! 9th Wonder said ‘Kendrick Hall-of-Famed’ them in his verse on Big Sean’s joint we posted, “Control.” Later in their discourse, Young Guru declared that the rhyme will make emcees go to their people and ask, ‘Is this tight enough?’ BEFORE putting rhymes out …like they should always be doing anyway! Watch the clip above. Engaging conversation between two of today’s Hip-Hop heavyweights.
When answering the question, ‘How historical is an emcee’s verse?’ …the way to answer is plain and simple: Who does it get talking?
9th Wonder and Young Guru speaking on it… Score for Kendrick Lamar!
‘…came at y’all n!ggas on the sh!t that y’all complaining hasn’t been in the game… This is LYRICS! What he shot at you was LYRICS!’
– Young Guru
“What’s gonna happen now… you’re gonna have a sub-par New York rapper come out with some sh!t that’s gone be… ‘okay’.”
– Young Guru
Wonder what 9th thought about those ‘replies’ that came out in the first hours after “Control”… Haha!
