Do You Feel The Entertainment Industry Brings Out Unnecessary Problems For Artist?

As some of you may all know, Kendrick Lamar a rap artist from California, has stirred up quite a controversy within the rap game. He made it clear that there are only a certain number of rap artist that he feels earns his respect as an artist. However, Kendrick Lamar may have just gotten known for being a good artist within the last year, but people are surprised to know that he has been in the entertainment industry for over 3 years now. The question is, do people feel he has a right to make such a statement, calling himself the "KING OF NEW YORK." Does this bother "Jay - Z" and "NAS,"? These are two of the most talents rap artist in the game right now. But besides collaborating with hip-hop artist BIG SEAN, we would all agree that what he said to certain artist may have been needed in order to bring the hip-hop era back to life. We all remember that back in the early 80's and 90's, the battling between who is the best artist on the West coast, and the East coast ran superior trends across the globe. I personally feel that what Kendrick Lamar did, was brilliant. He made it noticeable that he was the best in the rap game, therefore he made it challenging for other rap artist to become the top artist. But, there was one particular artist that felt did not deserve to be a legit rap artist, and that individual was rap icon Drake. If you were not in attendance for the 2013 Cypher, here is a clip of what was said by Kendrick Lamar about Drake. It has been stated by a reliable source that Erykah Badu encourages Drake to come back in response in a lyrical type of setting stating, "Drake you have to come back boy, this HIP-HOP! Now as we all wait and see if Drake will respond, will it be at a point of transformation for others to continue this trending topic. If so I personally feel that the art of hip-hop will gather better respect and more attention in a positive way.
