Fans react to Kendrick Lamar's unreleased verse on Frank Ocean's 'Nights'

"I fw Kendrick but sometimes this n***a make weird a** voices and people swear it’s experimental." one user comments.

Kendrick Lamar has been in the spotlight recently due to his viral lyrical battle with Drake.

Today, however, he’s making headlines for a different reason: a scrapped verse from Frank Ocean's "Nights" has surfaced online, causing a stir among fans.

The verse, which appears raw and experimental, shows Kendrick exploring different directions before recording a final cut.

Reactions on social media platform X have been mixed.

Some fans feel Kendrick "really cooked with this one" and are disappointed it was left off the record, while others are relieved it didn't make the final cut.

One user commented, "I fw Kendrick but sometimes this n***a does bullsh*t on instrumentals and make weird a** voices and people swear it’s experimental. Sh*t sounds horrible."

Conversely, another user defended the verse, saying, "No way people are calling this bad."

The reasons behind why this version of "Nights" featuring Kendrick was never officially released remain unclear.

It's possible that Ocean felt the track was strong without the verse, or it didn’t fit with the rest of the album "Blonde."

Regardless, fans are excited to finally hear what could have been, even if it's just a glimpse into the creative process.
