So Did Kendrick Flop?

[Nintendough]

i dont know who you listen to, but atleast kendrick is better than j cole.

I dont even listen to J Cole like that but his album trumps Kendrick easily

to pimp a butterfly is his best album

when did i say gkmc is taco bell?
i meant like, mainstream heads listen to alotta disposable shyt and most of it is recent so they prolly already forgotten about gkmc.
so when a mainstream album like a new kendrick lp comes out and is not what theyre used to.... its hated on for being too differrent or whatever.

and i saw nothing wrong with the snoop and dam funk lp.

Disposable of fast food music is subjective

Because imo there's nothing more disposable than TPAB

If it was so great, why is no one listening to it? WHy can't I find one song on there to keep in my summer playlist? No song on radio? No song in the club (King Kunta was supposed to be the big hit)? Album ain't going platinum in the US maybe worldwide, but America spat that shyt out. How you have 8 Million streams of your album in the first 24 hours an you can't sell a million copies? That's what you call a great album? The reaction to this album compared to GKMC is like night a day. People were talking about GKMC for like 1-2 years after it dropped.

Simply put it isn't as good as gkmc.

When I say great album I mean 8.5/10. The critics and hype beast went overboard but it's a solid album all the way. Guarantee it will crawl to platinum in the U.S by the end of the year into 2016.

Major flop.

Yea, if he does the usual rerelease with some new songs on it that don't sound like some experimental jazz shyt.

 

[Big Mel]

I think I played the album 4 times. By comparison, I played Ab Soul's 'These days' probably 25-30 times.


Stupendous flop.

Repped. I commend you for having such high tolerance.

 

[Big Mel]

Repped. I commend you for having such high tolerance.

i think i bailed halfway through the 4th spin. it's just not very good. his baby voices kill me.


who pronounces 'Lucy' as "Looshy"?

 

[Smitty Belafonte]

It gets better everytime i hear it. And i dont know where yall from but when King Kunta come on it gets nikka s out they seat. Plus its video of the year. No problems wit Kendrick album.

Don't like the production, eh?

 

[SpacelySprockets]

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:

 

[Uncle_Ruckus]

Kenny tried to make a revolutionary pro black album like Dead Prez and failed. RBG >

The album is not for rap fans. It's for kendrick fans. Its less product and more art. A project like this released on this level is enough to make it not a flop. I love it. It's a sleeper, tho. The dilemma is what they want vs. What k dot has to offer. He makes mood music. Maybe next year you'll be in the mood. I'd consider it a early Christmas present.
Just some thoughts.

i will say this.... "Momma" is one of my favorite joints of the year so far.
