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

[you're NOT "n!ggas"]

 

[Po pimp]

I have a feeling this album is gonna be K. Dot's gift and a curse..

It'll be a gift because he delivered a critically acclaimed hip-hop album that is getting LOVE from ALL media...he showed that you can still be yourself and deliver a self-conscious album in a major label and STILL show that good quality hip-hop music can STILL sell in this day of age..as long as u have good music and the fan base to back it up.

However, it will be his curse cuz his next album is needs to be good if not BETTER then his previous one..because if it isn't...the hip-hop fans WILL turn on him and say that he fall off...and then nikkas are gonna go around and say "SEE I TOLD U THAT nikka WAS WACK!"

Either way...I love the debates this album has sparked...that's hip-hop for ya...

They said the same thing about It Was Written when it came out, but 16 years later, it's considered a classic. Some even prefer it over illmatic.

This American Gangsta classic talk seriously needs to stop.

Its getting out of hand.

Notice how people jump on the bandwagon and never actually say WHICH SONGS they feel are classics?

If something is a classic then you would hear people actually name specific tracks more often.

But it seems people are getting far too infatuated with the fact that it was a concept album that was a follow up and improvement from Kingdom Come.


But you really mean to tell me there are classic songs besides Roc Boys and Blue Magic? Really?

Yes..u dumbfck Nas stan there are.

Pray- Classic
No Hook
Roc Boys
I Know
Party Life
Ignorant Sht
Fallin
Blue Magic

All those songs arent just average songs

They are dope songz, and thats most of the album
And Roc Boys is one of the smoothest, coolest mainstream singles during 07-08

The personification of drug addiction and the drug in use being personified as a human relationship along with that great beat is

Party life is soo smooth, makes me feel like Im in the 70's and that 3rd verse is just

Ignorant sht is jus too real "They're all actors/looking at themselves in the mirror backwards/cant even face themselves dont fear no rappers/they're all actors dineros in practice"

ALl in all the production was dope, the cohesiveness of the album was top notch, Jay Z brought it lyrically and portrayed excellent storytelling, and was such a fresh classic

Now get out of here you blasphemous bytch ass Nas stan

*revisits thread and sees Jay Z arguments*

Only on The Coli ...

 

[LiquidSword]

At first i thought it was boring but the more i listen to it, the better it gets. Most of it is very mellow but when i started to really listen to it and follow the story my dissapointment subsided. The mellow beats have subtile things that make them great.

I liked section 80 immediately but this one needed to grow.

The only complaints i have is i really dont like the compton song. Dre shouldnt rap if he isnt even making beats. hes useless besides the mixing he may have done. I usually dont like and i wish he wasnt on the album but it wasnt as bad as it could have been.

 

[thephatmack]

This is how you make an album.

 

[ecnirp1]

i'm just not getting what all the hype is about

[TRILLWAVE]
