Kendrick Lamar's All Time Classic - To Pimp a Butterfly 5th Anniversary (Come Pay Your Respects)

[Waterproof]

During these troubled times people are revisiting TPAB

That's a sign of a timeless classic

real

 

[Tony D'Amato]

Overrated basicness. Not 1 quotable in the entire album from kenny

 

[Armchair Militant]

His worst album. Trash.

 

[ThirdAct]

I would really like to hear the arguments of those who think GKMC is a better project than TPAB.

GKMC has more bangers.

 

[ExodusNirvana]

GKMC > TPAB

Don't @ me

 

[Zebruh]

Beautiful album.

 

[Sankofa Alwayz]

no it’s the opposite. All the praise for it comes from white journalist. Even the comments on YouTube on blacker the berry praise it for the last two bars! Which I hate though
i remember when it dropped and I was still in college (hbcu) it was like an event and nobody liked it and everyone complained about it being a jazz album.

I love it though

honestly when I think about it, this may be one of the most “pro black” albums white people love a lot because it’s quite safe compared to Jay Electronica album or Nas Untitled

Not surprising. That’s because most these young nikkas aren’t into musicality and the science of Black music like many generations before and some prolly going around thinking Jazz is some old people music. I’m not surprised a lotta kneegrows from the Trap music generation wasn’t feeling this album and I say that as a technical member of said generation (I was 23 the year TPAB dropped)

 

[Low End Derrick]

Mommy- I know everything

oh how we need that song in today's age.

 

[Izanami]

The first time I heard Pac at the end of Mortal Man

i made the mistake of reading the responses to album before fully listening. Got spoiled for me.

 

[Sankofa Alwayz]

@Asantehene @Baraka The two nikkas who 1 starred this thread with their trash boring ass comments

The Trap/ADHD Generation y’all lmao

 

[Conscious Pilot]

The last classic in hip hop. Hasn't been one since.

 

[Izanami]

I think Kendrick peaked lyrically in this era. We may never get this level of greatness from him ever again.

 

[Sankofa Alwayz]

Classic. Kendrick was loved on here till he got popular lol. Same with every other artist

The Booth is real selective with that shyt lol. They act like they don’t fukk with Kendrick and Cole no more but will big up Future and Young Thug any chance they get to this very day. They ain’t slick

 

[Conscious Pilot]

I’ve tried it with this album many times... it isn’t trash by any means... but I don’t get the “masterpiece” label this gets. I much prefer GKMC and S80 over this .. rather easily.
