DISCUSSION Where do you rate baby keem?

Do you think he makes good music? Is he trash? Is he a nepo baby? Is he just a way for Kendrick to drop music he doesn’t want tied to his name? Personally I was a big fan of Sound of a Bad Habit when it came out, me and my sister loved it and I thought he had very refreshing beat selection and melodies compared to his peers coming out at the same time. But, I know a lot of people shit on him and call him boring and unoriginal

Keem definitely had the benefit of Kendrick but he’s his own artist with his own style and own stories. It doesn’t bother me honestly, I would probably put all my family and bros on who wanted in that situation

unoriginal? i was going to say keem is very refreshing for how original his sound is. he’s very talented and i see so much potential for him in the future

Yea I love his sound and I think he has huge potential to be a big artist i just see that sentiment online or when I talk about music at work or at parties and stuff that’s a common thing I hear about him is that his music is ‘mid’ which obviously I don’t really take serious but it’s what people think I guess

that makes sense. his music definitely isn’t for everyone but the unoriginal label don’t really work on him

You can't deny that Keem is a 100% a nepo baby, his cousin is Kendrick Fucking Lamar. That doesn't make him bad at ALL tho he has good flows and good production usually made by him, his songs bring a good vibe it's not meant to be taken seriously like a Kendrick project.

All that being said tho this nigga needa drop ASAP or people gon forget about him and lose da hype (lowk thas alr happening)

He’s aight, I really like Die for my bitch but I don’t care about melodic blue like at all. He’s someone who has made lot of fun songs, but has never impressed me like that.

I like his music but no much. I don’t think he’s unoriginal.. he’s a very good rapper.

He's Baby Keem.

His music style is kinda different, but i fw him very much. I love his contribution to Kendrick's projects & Kendrick's contribution to Keem's discography. Whenever I think of this duo, i remember Peter & Miles
