Amazing album. I've listened four times today. It's aMazing what hip hop can be when you have artists who really want to Make music for themselves.
*decent album, not classic IMO lost my attention towards the middle.
may change with more listens.
* Negus and the media hold Kendrick's music to a higher regard,Not the first rapper to speak about
black issues. Cole is boring, Lupe is cryptic, I could go on with Talib,Krit,Blu,Roots,Mos Def,Common...
Am I the only one who feels this way?
*Kendrick is from Cali & its safe to say he was influenced by 80-90's West coast.
Nate,The Pharcyde ,Snoop & Pac, NWA,Souls of Mischief....etc, all had runs
while he was growing up . Not surprising to hear a mix of jazz & funk.
*Production Wise its a 10. Hip-Hop in 2015 has been on point production wise.
Thundercat,Terrace Martin,Robert Glasper all made big contributions to the production. I would recommend
their work if you like the the production. Knxwledge,Flying Lotus produced tracks, also worth listening.
If the Album got you interested in Funk and Jazz Listen to the parliament, Funkadelic
albums along with some Coltrane and Miles,Monk,Mingus.

Lupe and Kendrick got the most thought out creative artistic influential audio paintings in mainstream that I've seen in yrs.
Now all we need is their father Nasty Nas to come through and make the cypher complete

I guess all Kendrick has to do is release a halfway decent album with some stock conscious messages to keep the stans happy.
GKMC>>>>>TPAB no question
I don't even like GKMC I'm not a stan
this is on a totally different level

A really good Lawyer
kendrick talking to tupac is the moat random way to end an albumm 
Busby
Real name no gimmicks..
If u were looking for radio hits...this album isn't gonna have it. It wasn't meant to.
K. Dot wanted your undeniable attention for 1 hour and 19 minutes and he wanted you to listen to his EVERY word. Not be jumping around in the club yelling that u running with your woes
