nikkas gonna hate but idgaf, outside like 3 maybe 4 tracks, this shyt put me to sleep!

thats half the album wtf lol

 

[MINT]

10/10 for the boy

feel like this is getting the same critical acclaim as tpab

 

[MINT]

I don't understand the people saying they didn't really fukk with TPAB but they fukk with this, there's still the jazzy vibe on this that was present in TPAB.

tpab is one of the best albums ever, but this one is more approachable in the sense that its fusion jazz, most of the jazzy songs, while being flawless from a pure objective standpoint, were free jazz.

but yeah, feel like both records are perfect.

Kendrick stans have become a caricature of themselves at this point

 

[Reactor1804]

thats half the album wtf lol

Yea but those 3-4 are cool, nothing really groundbreaking or super dope, but decent. the rest is way too boring for me

 

[hiphip]

this is outstanding, this is REAL music, this is oozing with BLACK musical excellence.

objectively, another amazing project from the kid, it looks like he understands music, its crazy, he really understands all the technical aspects of cosmic jazz rap, g-funk, boom bap and everything in between.

 

[MINT]

tpab is the highest rated album of all time as far as hip hop go, often praised by muscians as one of the best composed albums ever, and he amost came close with this, crazy

I gave this a 9.7/10 in my pitchfork review

 

[MaNu Minu]

at first I didn't enjoy it, but I knew it was at least great (quality wise) but now I love it

 

[ThiefyPoo]

Listened again in the ride. Didn't skip any tracks minus the rehearsel for hate is the answer oart. Solid release.

I knew you would come around

Yo dude you in a Kendrick thread, hating. Life must be sad for you. You need to prioritize whats important to you, because it has to be sad that you took time and energy to write all that when you could have just kept it moving. Like you literally sat on your chair and typed all that. You prob that dude that snickers when people say they trying to get their life together.

I'll keep this in mind in the next Drake thread.

Untitled 2 is my shyt right now...

Right. Song is sonically perfect to me. It is absolutely ridiculous how much I love this track.

 

[tehparadox]

This was outstanding, from a pure musical standpoint. While Snoop and Common have often touched the surface of Jazz and Funk, the two blackest genres known to man; Kendrick fully embraces it and the production on this is amazing. It's like a mixture of Good Kid with Section.80, it's atmospheric but hectic at the same time as tons of horns and guitars populate the albums soundscapes.

Yea. Coming off that kanye I had to pay attention to the fact dude is one of the few people SPITTING. I enjoyed the lyrics and flows and I'm pleased he didn't let the desire to make music hold him back from spitting them bidarz

 

[tweezy]

it's amazing but it shouldnt come as a surprise... he had 60+ musicians working with him on tpab and most of them are the absolute best musicians of the decade.. the same guys worked on these songs lol
