Guru bigging up Ali is special.

Kendrick just isn't as smart as yall want him to be and he sucks at making emotional appeals with his music. Its very easy to listen to a Kendrick album and feel nothing. Very talented technically and he definitely attempts the experimental/conceptual though he could be helped by "less is more."

Hearing albums like this makes me really realize how far ahead of the game Andre 3k was.

andre has absolutely no solo albums on kendrick's level. and he never will

yeah man he is no kanye

kanye could fart into the mpc machine and create a classic.... like, he literally could...


take for example this gif - he literally dropped a 5/5 track by tapping a button once and running away:

Doing a lyric run paid off. This shyt works together.

I wonder if the Easter album is called

God


And the Grammy goes to

Kendrick Lamar
GOD DAMN

Just finished the album. It's got its good spots and boring ass fukk spots.
This album is alright but not fukkin with TPAB at all. The songs that is good they sound like TPAB leftovers.

How I feel. Guy ain't good at making u feel what he wants u to feel. Only time I came close to doing so was Sing about me. And that was more sonically/production than himself as a rapper.

What Nas tracks though?

As far as Lupe is concern, The Cool seems close enough but not on the level of what Kendrick is doing with Damn as far as the theories are concern. The Cool was more of talking about the life of the dude that came back to life on the title track off of Food and Liquor. A pretty dope concept too.

fukk now I want to listen to The Cool

Minus a track here and there I feel the The Cool is head shoulders above
all of Lupe's work with Food & Liquor being the exception.
I actually bought a physical copy of those two albums, my opinion
of him may have soured but those albums helped to really foster
my appreciation for lyrics and song writing.
