feelings? Sorry I've never heard anyone bumping Kendrick. And never outside the coli do I see people bringing him up. My eighteen year old God son whom is more street nor my bourgeoisie nephews give a shyt about him. None of my CAC coworker ever brought him up. He's only popping as much as interscope can brainwash people that he is. His songs ain't on hit anywhere on the planet. Like I said when interscope stops putting in extreme effort, he'll die overnight. There's nothing exceptional about him at all

I liked kendricks new cd but i felt it was overhyped . No one in the industry has the ability to make a classic with the way the industry is now . I honestly cant remember the last cd i could listen to front to back over and over again . And why the fukk is jay electronica on here ? i know its to be used as an example but damn how long have we been waiting for an album ?
Oh, chill, breh. I thought you were referring to another album that came out a day before T&Y.I dunno loc I had it when it leaked and remember the 19th or 20th when I copped at Target... you bein a dikk right now tho
Stop using this argument...the world is bigger than who you interact with. There are products and services and artists you've never heard that sell millions upon millions of records
that your 18 yr old God son and co-workers have never heard of.

Ok,tell me what i should base my opinion off of. What criteria should i use?
I agree with Kanye, Lupe, Kendrick even cole definitely setting out to make all time memorable classics.
The drake argument is interesting to me. He's definitely trying to make the best music of the moment, not really aiming for future consideration as clearly as the ones I named above. But I do believe Take Care will eventually be recognized for how great it is, and how it solidified Drake's position. Front all you want, but Drake's been the biggest artist in rap since that album dropped. I'm an old head and even I can admit that.

That's not my job...but don't use your social circle as a barometer to invalidate Kendrick.
Him and Lupe are the only ones trying to craft classic albums right now

So it's your job to tell me how not to judge but it's not your job to give me a more accurate way of judging? You make no sense.
If you cant figure out a proper way to judge,then YOU telling ME how NOT to judge has no merit #checkMATE

Or Maybe They're Saying That Because It's Not A Classic Album
I'm Still Tryna Figure Out
a)Why Exactly Is It A Classic Album Other Than The Fact That It's Musically Different From Every Other Hip Hop Album Out At The Moment
b)Why People Think Having A Good Album That's Not A "Classic" Is So Bad
c)How & When Kendrick Fans Got So Annoying..I Been A Fan Of Him Since I Heard His Verse On "How Are Far We Go" With Smoke DZA But Damn Ya'll Making Me Not Even Wanna Like The Nygga Anymore
Dap + Rep such a real ass post.
And the bolded took me back
I don't judge...i'm telling you to find a better metric/barometer than "oh people I know don't check for him"...
No sh1t...I know people who don't check for NasCar or the UEFA Championship/Superbowl on both sides of this planet ....
Kanye has been doing it for years. Kendrick tries to push the button but TPAB just wasn't that good people try to force to like it because it's Kendrick and he had great messages in his songs. I don't see anyone talking about that album anymore.
