IMO song is the pinnacle of dudes career.

None of them goofy ass voices.

Hard lyrics

No c00nin

None of that forced "artistic" crap.

"I got my finger on the muthafukking pistol
Aiming it at a pig, Charlottes Web is gonna miss you
My issue wasn't televised and you ain't gotta tell the wise
How to stay on beat cause our lives an instrumental
This is physical and mental"

:wow:

"Visions of Martin Luther staring at me
If I seen it how he seen it that would make my parents happy
Sorry momma I can't turn the other cheek
They wanna knock me off the edge like a fukking widows peak, ugh"

"
Dear Lord, come and save me, the Devils working hard
He probably clocking double shifts on all of his jobs

Frightening, so fukking frightening
Enough to drive a man insane
I need a license to kill
I'm standing on a field full of landmines
Doing the moonwalk hoping I blow up in time"
:banderas:


"No conspiracy my fate is inevitable
They played musical chairs, once I'm on that pedestal
Frightening, so fukking frightening
Enough to drive a man insane, a woman insane
The reason Lauren Hill don't sing or Kurt Cobain"
:whoo:


Why don't he spit like this no more brehs?

Top 5 Kendrick song. I think this Kendrick is still there he just doesn't feel like sticking with the same style over and over again.

damn im gonna have to agree with you there... i dont feel like his "to pimp a butterfly" lp connected with me in any way. i dont feel like it was made for me. it was less accessible artistically than good kid maad city and section 80 too for that matter...

He's a millionaire now but still making great music. Stop.

He's spiritual now. He's trying to save souls, I clouding his own.

He's not gonna be wrapping like a gang members on the fence

Verse on the first untitled song was fire, stop

i hate when nikkas dont expect people to change when they get money... when you get money and new opportunities it changes your mindset or maybe it's just the J. Cole beat...:yeshrug:

Interscope dumbed him down, plain and simple. Section 80 might be his best album. To Pimp A Butterfly is cool but the alien voice has to go.
