So Did Kendrick Flop?

Uhh...it's not militant or one dimensional. You're right about the hype, tho.it dropped and 5 minutes later people called it the goat album only to not talk about it 2 weeks later, they prolly digested the lyrics and realized that its a boring garbage 1 dimensional faux militant album filled with respectability politics disguised as being pro-black.. and the same type of people who shytted on raven symone, diddy, stacey dash, and several other famous c00ns dikkrode kendrick and gave him a pass because they liked how the music sounded
I'm happy this shyt is struggling to go platinum and Cole is gonna outlast him when its all said and done:smug50:

No. That would be KA. Kenny tried to make a big album and failed. It's no coincidence he's now team d with Taylor Swift to regain some lost pop footing.
You act like it was all of a sudden. That mainstream stuff is calculated. I doubt that taylor swift thing was an emergency pr move.
damn, forgot bout the new KA. *boots up spotify*

He's A Good Man
basically.it had all the right ingredients (jazz musicians, thundercat, flyiling lotus, knxwledge and others) but the mainstream rap folks couldnt digest it.
when all you eat is taco bell, sometimes a home cooked meal taste like shyt
i thought it was straight.
Artists should be allowed to experiment...
He'll be back and even if he doesn't meet whatever lofty standards you've set
He already gave us GKMC

TPAB is the definition of a try hard album
would you rather have artists try too hard and give you love it or hate it art or not try at all and give you shyt that gets called old and corny in one week?

This has been a strange year for Kendrick. I feel like that (was it VIBE magazine?) interview where he came off sounding real dumb about that Mike Brown shyt hurt him in the long run. It's like once people discovered he was an imbecile politically, he lost the Good K.I.D and became the Good c00n. 
As a result, he's forced into this ideological box for the second album which should have been a victory lap (remember "Control" verse?) and comes off trying to throw shots at white supremacy
and scold the homees for being too ignorant at the same time 
Unfortunately, you can't be all things to all people so his musical triumph is simultaneously dulled by his immature rhetoric. All things considered the record is still incredible and deserves the praise it got for the most part. I don't really play it that much anymore tho
