The 3-time Pro Bowler took to Twitter recently to share his admiration of Lamar and his work in the industry. While talking about Lamar and his style of work, Garrett states, “Kendrick really the Frank Ocean of rap.. he comes & drops fire then disappears into the sunset.

Garrett hints at the fact that both Lamar and Ocean are similar to each other. He believes that they don’t worry about the media’s focus and attention like other famous artists.

Garrett appears to be on-point with his assessment, as both are mysterious men who keep a low profile in their day-to-day lives. Both individuals rarely participate in interviews, post infrequently on social media, and release projects years and years apart. The Browns DE seems to be an admirer of both artists, who are making a name for themselves in their respective genres.

How Kendrick Lamar and Frank Ocean are changing the game in the music industry

While consistency in releasing music every year and connecting with the audience is key for any famous personality. Ocean and Lamar are breaking the norm for upcoming artists. Both artists have even restricted themselves from making elaborate public statements. They also, from time to time, post cryptic messages on social media. The decision to make fans wait for their new albums seems to have helped the pair transcend fame. But the pair have managed to maintain their relevancy in the ever-changing world.
