After using the now ever-popular formula of taking a shot at a rapper who’s at the top of his game in order to garner attention, Shyne’s public critique of Kendrick Lamar’s debut album good kid, m.A.A.d city has now received a (level-headed) response from the Cali rapper. With Shyne calling Lamar’s album “trash,” the likes of ScHoolboy Q, The Game and Nipsey Hussle have all leapt to the defense of the artist whose LP is set to come in at #2 next week with over 200k units sold. Kendrick now adds his two pence worth to the mix, simply stating:

“It’s really no response [to him]. I’m not a sensitive guy, so that’s his opinion. Can’t stop what the world thinks, so yeah, that’s him.”

good kid, m.A.A.d city is available now on iTunes.
