Shawn Cee Hate-Watching Again
Shawn Cee acts like discovering music through other people is some kind of character flaw. Meanwhile his career exists because millions of people enjoy hearing other people's perspectives on music. The irony writes itself.

A lot of people rank the idea of Kendrick Lamar more than the actual catalog. Six albums in 15 years isn't enough for me to put him over artists with similar quality work. They just don't have the mystique that's been built around Kendrick.

Critics Like Shawn Cee See obsession. Fans see consistency and dominance.
If being obsessed with your craft leads to 16 years of dominance, maybe obsession isn’t the problem.
They treat ambition like a character flaw. When History usually rewards it.
