Gkmc was literally a movie on wax, literally like Mr Scarface is back was themed around Face's diary or how the Love Below was one big story about Andre's relationship with women.
Its only a handful of rappers who could take their their thoughts and make a movie on wax out of it with every song tieing into one another and not throwing a bunch cliche bullshyt together.
Wc, Cube, eiht and a bunch of others are all great west coast gangsta story tellers, but they never could sync up a album that flowed perfectly.
Kendrick did somethin no west coast artist ever did, and if you take your favorite kendrick songs today and make a album wouldnt touch the overall agenda and theme of good kid, you have a cliche rap album.

Kendrick Lamar's Good Kid M.a.a.d City is THE best debut album from a Hip Hop artist since The College Dropout. Kendrick seemlessly was able to weave the themes of teenaged black angst permeating within the urban community (The uncertainty of choices seperating right and wrong, The hoplessness that enshrouds ones mindstate when faced with everyday violence and corruption, the crabs in a barrel mentality of those who fall into the trappings of their surroundings, the inner hope for redemption amidst cultural savagery) with the honesty and emotion of his own life story. Creating a concept album in which the story is simultaneously personal and yet relateable. His lyrics were crafted with painstaking attention to detail, the production was actually made to FIT the concept of each track, helping to unify the album into completion. There was no fat, no filler, and bullshyt. Just one man, one mic, and one story. What Kendrick was able to accomplish in 12 songs was nothing short of extraordinary for an album released on a major label in 2012. Kendrick didn't cater to mainstream's defintion of Hip Hop, he instead played a very vital part in redefining what the artform was capable of....
What Drake would've had to do to touch GKMC wasn't to follow Kendrick, or try to make a concept album, he would've had to OUT RAP Kendrick, and he didn't. There is no song on NWTS touching the lyrical precision or mastery that Kendrick displayed on GKMC. Nothing to compare to the raw honesty of Real, the stark sorrow and poetical narration of Sing About Me/Dying Of Thirst, the victorious bravado of Compton. the sheer hunger of Backseat Freestyle. Kendrick above all, RAPPED HIS ASS OFF on GKMC.
Drake did not...
SOo....ur sayin...GKMC is better than Blueprint??You KNOW you

U say that GKMC is better simply because of lyricism
Well...I'll be the first to say Blueprint isnt as lyrical as GKMC and I know u believe the same thang
But what makes BP better than GKMC
Simple
Better music to vibe and listen to
All that spoken word sht u talm bout making classic albums doesnt mean as much as u think my nikka
Now GKMC is better than NTWS but the way u sayin sht sounds like straight stannery
Now dont come at me nikka

As a stan of both artists - moreso Drake, actually - I gotta roll with Kendrick.
GKMC has aged better than damn near anything, personally. I still play the album on the regular.
