Producer Syk Sense says Kendrick's new album is hard not jazzy

[Ziggiy]

King Kendrick going for the 4 peat

No one should expect tpab 2, thats a masterpiece that shouldn't be recreated.

Exactly.

Just like he didn't do the GKMC sound again.

Only thing is I hope he doesn't COMPLETELY abandon the jazzy sound as I really feel as if he's mastered it. If maybe only 1-2 tracks per album have that vibe I'll be satisfied.

 

[Roxx the King]

Not buying it. I remember before To Pimp A Butterfly came out, nikkas claim "King Kunta" was gonna be the greatest song in rap history, and it ended up being like the 5th best song on that album. I'll wait and see.

I loved King Kunta but they overhyped it a tad. Still in rotation tho

 

[SNG]

Gotdamn I heard he was working with Metro boomin after he released untitled. I fukk with Jazzy Kenny but Kenny on some hard shyt It be dope seeing him on a track with thugger because I know kenny can get nasty with the flow when he wants to.

I can't even listen to TPAB after Anderson Paak

 

[gottah8me]

Bet it will sound like Blank Face LP

That's not a bad thing it was one of the top rap albums last year.

 

[razassin]

I feel like most of his stuff has had a jazzy vibe. GKMC prob the only major project he's had that didn't have any jazz, unless my memory is off.

So I'm sure this album will have some keys or something. But like others have said he never does the same thing twice. I was thinking about how Big Sean and most of these other rappers just release the same album over and over: some radio hits, some trap, and some filler and that's that. TDE deserves a lot of credit for their artists experimenting and doing different shyt.

The story is that originally the beat was way crazier with even more layers, and Kendrick told Sounwave to strip it to the bass line and just a couple layers. Sounwave did an interview (I think with Spin) and said the original might be released on day. He made it sound like it was some Issac Hayes shyt initially with the Shaft type riffs lol.

I listened to GKMC this morning in fact and it does have a jazzy vibe, but not as overt as TPAB

this...he's been doing that TPAB sound but he took it to the next level on TPAB

It was THE top album of last year in my opinion.

I don't think Kendrick can match that raw and gritty sound as excellent as Q does tho.

 

[Lord Beasley]

Kendrick in 2017????

Nah

Kendrick and thug switching voices together would be some funny shyt
