the inerludes are what connect most of the songs when you think about it. so he could have just made up some interlude to connect it somehow.

Just should have been a bonus track.. I added it after Now or Never and ended the Deluxe with The Heart Pt 3. Goes perfect

Seems like it was actually intended for the album but they couldn't clear the sample
Punch: “[It didn’t make the album because of] basic sample issues. It’s simple as that. If we were to try and re-do the sample, it would take away the original feeling of it. We didn’t want to risk it. That’s just one of those records. That’s one of those b-sides that’s going to be around and ain’t really attached to nothing. If it wasn’t for [the sample issue], it would’ve been on there.”

Kendrick Lamar: “I got something else for that, a different space for that [to go]. We’re going to find something crazy for that one. We had [an issue with sample clearances] but I don’t want to let that record die. That was my idea [to put Gunplay on the song]. People thought I was crazy for it. I just know his flow and his cadence is crazy and his consonants is crazy. [I knew] he’d do it justice and that he did. He’s definitely crazy man.”

Does Compton fit the story of the album?

Yes the whole album album is a movie. Taking that into account if the movie ends with Real then Compton is the song that plays during the ending credits, showing that he eventually made it like his mother predicted and "came back". The Recipe and other.bonus joints are deleted scenes.

Compton was sort of like the end credits song. Cartoons & Cereal does fit, I would put it right after BDKMV. But, it was probably the best decision to leave it off the main album.
