Kendrick Lamar-good kid, m.A.A.d city-2012 (CLASSIC)

[YourMajesty]

EVERYBODY fukking with this album from the cacs to the street nikkas....Kendrick did it with this

 

[Insensitive]

Bro, we not arguing that aspect i wasnt about to post entire Common songs or whatever. I'm just saying that Kendrick is good, but off the man's sack a bit and let him get a discography first. this is the first step in a AWESOME, STELLAR career and i'm a fan. I just don't want him to become dependent on his flow ability, and fully round his game...in fact Lebron is the perfect analogy to KL right now...crazy talent, freak of nature ability but when he plays the smartest and gets in the post or perfects the outside game...he'll give Jordan a run.

KL is like that, he is great now but he's missing 1 or two aspects of his skills before we talk about him in Nas, Hov Rakim levels. He's the Gohan of the game though.

Alright that's cool, I just think he isn't missing any essentials and has the potential to drop an equally good or even greater album on his third outing.
Because both Section.80 and GKMC are fantastic, on top of the mixtape work he's already done (Compton State of Mind, Kendrick Lamar EP,Overly Dedicated, C4, Training Day, his work with Ab-Soul & Jay Rock etc.)
He's already amassed a pretty impressive body of work and going forward I'm hoping and thinking he'll only do better.

Don't get my praise wrong though, I'm not on his n*ts in that I can't criticize him because I can and will, I just think that GKMC is definitely an album that deserves props and would deserve those props in any era if you ask me
And of course I wouldn't put him on the level of God Emcee's off of two albums
When it comes to legends I feel the same way, that's why I those *insert new rapper* is
better than everyone before him arguments.

You mean first at the Nas show?

its nas and lauryn hill

In Nashville? What I'm going to is a two day festival and Nas is just part of it.

 

[JMurder]

This is the gameplan Slaughterhouse should've used for their album. A few huge cosigns, a few lesser knowns who are undeniably dope, and dope hip-hop beats with dope concepts.

I don't think some of you fools get it

"I'm not the next pop star
I'm not the next socially aware rapper
I am a human motherfukking being, over dope ass instrumentation
Kendrick Lamar"

Kendrick is by no means a conscious rapper, he speaks about his life experiences and brings fresh concepts over great production. This album ain't the type that has quotable lines where you can recite out of context and it would still hold the same meaning. Matter of fact, none of his music is really like that.

 

[Uno Venova]

The praise for this album is insane, people always say 'classic' because of launch hype but this might actually be referred to as one.

Naw this is wrong, if Kendrick never improves 1 bit as a lyricist, but continues to drop timeless albums on a consistent basis, he will be seen among the greats. That's what people really remember. That's also the most difficult of tasks to accomplish in hip hop. Just ask Nas & Jay how hard it is to drop consistently superior material.

Are you nikkas really comparing young ass Kendrick fukkin Lamar to the Gawd MC NAS who after 20 years in the game dropped one of his best albums and is arguably the greatest to EVER do it? There is no limits you nikkas wouldn't go to to suck Kendrick's dikk it's disgusting

 

[ThisIsLife]

Ok... I have not done this with an album in ahwile (besides Joey Bada$$ mixtape), but I have to give this album 5/5. Great lyrics, beats, subjects, concepts, melodies and you can tell he is just doing is own thing being himself. Not one bad track.
