The key to building muscle and strength, which in my opinion go hand in hand is progressive resistance, that is either done by increasing the weight, a rep or both every workout.
Before the adjustable barbell there were fixed weighted barbells and kettle bells, the adjustable barbell revolutionized weight training.
The KB is limited in its use, but the shape allows one to do some exercises the you cannot do with a dumbbell.
I you have some mobility issues, then a kettle bell seems to have some benefits over some barbell exercises, but adjustable dumbbells are just as good if not better.
This.
Kettlebells have some uses but the number one thing kettlebells are good at is they rob you of a lot of cash when you buy them.

I have some kb's at home in my home gym hardly ever use them.
I think they are more of a conditioning tool rather than a body building/muscle building tool.
Good for HIIT style conditioning workouts not much more than that IMO.

If you have enough of them they can be both.
Just because they can be useful for building strength and for rehab does not make the necessary for body building.
But are they necessary for bodybuilding purposes?
No
No.Are kettlebells necessary for bodybuilding?
