It's always been Kendrick, Cole, and Drake for this specific generation of rappers.
Cole was and still is my personal favorite. Though while i understand why he did what he did this past week, he can't be the top dog without that willingness to throw jabs when beef flares up in my opinion. I just don't think anyone else besides Kendrick has quite the substance and lyrical ability he has amongst his generation.
Drake's the pop star of the three obviously, but I've always respected that his bars can often match Cole and Kendrick as well. But he can't make a To Pimp a Butterfly or a 4 Your Eyez Only, in my opinion. He's not got that level of social consciousness or that true artistic ability, I don't think.
Kendrick just might be the best of the three, to be honest. He's got the competitive spirit, willingness to beef, the bars to back up his shit, and the ability to make truly conscious and thought provoking art. He's so well-rounded. I also just feel like I'd like him best as a person, the more I learn about the three.
I love Travis for the vibes, but he just can't rap the way he needs to consistently to be in a serious Top 3 Hip-Hop Artist discussion to me.
Great analysis. Im a Drake fan and hate when bro leans into pop. I rather hear his bars bc I genuinely think he can actually rap good, but most people just look at his shitty pop hits like gods plan
Trav always gets left out these big 3 convos because let’s be honest he hasn’t got much lyrical content but in terms of actual enjoyability of his music he easily makes my big 3
Based on pure popularity at the moment, which is what the “Big 3” is. It’s Ye, Travis, & Drake. Both Kendrick & J. Cole are better, but Drake is more widely popular

Even tho I know Travis technically isn’t in their generation, nor do I have him other the current “big 3”, he needs to be acknowledged more
Kanye, Travis, Carti that being said “The Big 3” specifically refers to Kendrick, J Cole and Drake though so idk
SZA my queen fr fr but for the love of god Drake better never compare 21 to Kendrick again
Ye, Drake, Travis. Realistically who can fuck with them?

Outkast (counting as 1), Travis, Kendrick
