I listened to this album with earbuds before and I wasn't feeling it, but listening to it in the whip sounded completely different. It's an album that needs to be played in the open imo. I think it's amazing now, I don't know where I'd rank it but it's very good, it's like almost as good as DAMN. I feel like the production and vocals was way better in the car than in my earbuds for some reason and my car sound system is shyt. Squabble up sounded even crazier in the whip, I would still lose that sample tho.

Only track id probably skip is reincarnated, I'd have to hear Gloria again, it was the last track I played in the whip and I was a little tired. But man this is mad good. I'd rate it an 8.5 maybe even a 9/10

Try switching out reincarnated with Not Like Us

Have they figured out what was censored in Wacced Out Murals yet?
I'm willing to bet the last word was either:

... Dennis

... Business

... Realist


It has to match the context of the following bar about not losing himself for a rap image.

This is a good puzzle, though.


Also, I originally thought "Diddy" was the subject of the trial bar but now I think it was young thug.

Saying Diddy in that bar sounds awkward. Young thug flows better in that spot.

Update: Just spun it back. ‘GNX’ is great. Top to bottom listenable – Kendrick’s tone evened out; This is smooth af – It will be in rotation. To critique from a rap perspective; He’s just saying stuff at the right time sometimes, but one could argue it’s his style; poetry – ‘man at the garden’. He’s a musician.

Controversial perspective — I’m a J. Cole fan. Cole is a better rapper. Kendrick is better at music, at creativity – everything is woven so well; Which packaged with his rap skills makes him “better” or the “winner”. He’s undeniable. Listen to J. Cole ‘Inevitable’ It’s worth it, it’s excellent, it’ll add perspective — these two are on two different missions for themselves, both real both pure.

To add more controversy; Drake a is pop star. Again listen to Cole’s Inevitable Stories [episodes] and you’ll understand why Kendrick and Cole are “Like Us” and they not. Big 3 is dead, 1 dot 2 drizzy 3 jermaine. Let’s usher in the next generation of rappers.
