Kendrick Lamar Reigns Supreme On Billboard.
With his poetic lyrics, charismatic stage presence, and powerful messages, Kendrick Lamar has become a superstar in the music world.
You may wonder why K Dot is placed in the pop category, not rap. Well, here is what one writer from Billboard reported,
What made Kendrick Lamar’s 2024 so remarkable, though, was that he didn’t just remind us of all the reasons why he was so big at his commercial and cultural peak – he showed that he could do things we’d never even seen from him before. He showed that he was capable of hitting heights no other rapper had reached this decade, a period that had otherwise marked something of a downturn for the once seemingly indomitable genre’s mainstream prospects. He showed that he was able to create cultural moments of both singular blunt-force impact and massive historical gravity – and then to do it again, and then again. And he showed that at his absolute best and biggest, he could dominate the streets, the charts and everywhere in between with equal sun-blocking vastness, and emerge as the winner not only when pitted against his most direct adversaries, but against any other potential peer in popular music.
Andrew summed it up very well. While others may focus on hip-hop alone, K Dot has managed to transcend the boundaries of music in general.
And, rightfully so, he has repeatedly proven that he is a force to be reckoned with. According to The Music Essentials, K Dot earned this title, putting him ahead of Taylor Swift and Beyonce. Check out the list below:
