is it that hip hop at such an all time low that an album like to pimp a butterfly gets hated on?

[I love Latina women]

i see this album get shytted on sometimes on here and i wonder, are people so immune to hearin' wack shyt for so long they've forgotten what good music is when they hear it or have grown up in an era where wack music has been steadily produced that they don't know any better?

kendrick dropped a classic with this shyt and nikkas on here be actin' like this album ain't shyt

 

[DeuceCypherUno]

I agree but you know this won't end well.

yup. i don't give a fukk, i speaks the truth. word to beanie sigel

Somethin somethin somethin... industry plant...bangers...duckworth...Drake is my daddy

 

[Easy-E]

The album isn't that easy to like. Not bad, but, it's wears on you.
Kenny tried to be avante garde...not everyone's gonna "get" it.

 

[RAW_SPK]

There is a possibility that people may just not like it. I know that goes against the idea cuz of everyone sees Kendrick as this "Hip Hop Savior" but just cuz they dont like the album and/or kendrick doesnt mean hip hop is at an all time low

 

[Tommy Sheppard]

maybe because the album just isn't that good to begin with, why is that so hard to understand?

 

[George's Dilemma]

Album was brilliant, the hate comes from Lupe and Drake stans. The former is composed of internet weirdos and the latter a bunch of lames.

 

[Wild self]

People been too Conditioned to listen to party tracks 24/7 and forgot the introspective side of Hip-hop. Anyone with a sober and focused mind would live TPaB.

 

[DeuceCypherUno]

people not liking the album due to personal preference is one thing.


It's another thing when people straight up lie about the album or about Kendrick, saying shyt like he rambles all throughout the album, or that he's trying too hard to be black (one of the WOAT criticisms ever), or that it's being "forced down everyone's throats" (strong marketing is not exclusive to this album so why the negative connotation?)

 

[SuburbanPimp]

I'm not surprised, look at what's popular in rap currently.... TPAB is very different than that. It's a mature album that not for the clubs and turning up.

I can appreciate when a rapper can convey and communicate what's going on in their life at a certain period. You would think after the success of GKMC that Kendrick would be happy as ever but he shows a different, more realistic view of things and appreciate him for going that route rather than trying to create GKMC part 2

 

[CrimsonTider]

Why do rap fans have to like this album?

 

[SirBiatch]

Drake fanboys = Kendrick dikkriders.

and the irony of it all is that Drake helped put Kendrick on Kendrick stans will never be able to live past that.

Spoiler: oh no, not those dreaded spoilers! :mjcry:

But of course

Know Yourself

Spoiler

Kendrick is the epitome of mediocrity

Spoiler

Overrate mediocrity and wackness, brehs

Spoiler

Think anyone with respectable hip hop taste who isn't industry says Kendrick is classic, brehs
