yes i agree GKMC is a better album overall however for the substance on YG's album and the resources he had at hand compared to Kendrick......he did very very well for himself..his album shocked me on how good it sounds TBHI agree, its a lot more simple and to the point but it is like a lil darker side of the same city..
Also both albums are well put together and sequenced very well.
I still prefer GKMC but YG leapfrogged a bunch of other rappers with this album...

this. this got a golden era 90s sound to it.
