For sale might be my favorite part of the album so I can deal

Not even going to ask you how.

These Walls...that third verse :damnno:

The storytelling by this nikka

 

[CASHAPP]

You don't think so bro? *scratches head in shock*

Edit: Oh shyt...I just caught it ...just had a smart dumb moment.

Have confidence in yourself bro it is a real word. You did not say anything wrong

 

[Tony D'Amato]

nikka...you made whole threads shytting on the album

I've grown as a person since then

 

[SuburbanPimp]

Everytime I come to this thread I read about something I might have missed on the album and end up running it back again....

Other than Lupes latest album it's been a while since an CD has that effect

"What you want you? A house or a car? Forty acres and a mule, a piano, a guitar? Anything see my name is Uncle Sam I'm your dog. Motherfukker you can live at the mall."
- Wesley's Theory

The bolded is replaced with Lucy in "Alright".

Both the white man and lucifer are trying to entice Kendrick to follow the culture of consumerism.

In the verses where says these lines he goes on to lay out the potential financial implications(Wesley's) and spiritual implications(Alright) of doing this. He also talks directly to America(For free) and Lucy(for sale) in the skits that follow both songs

Wesley's is the intro and Alright represents a significant change in the tone of the album. This was likely done on purpose and Alright is basically the intro to the second part of the album

shyt I just caught this

And "For Free" & "For Sale" just happen to be after both songs too.

Which is why I said I don't need the interludes to connect everything together. It's all in the music...

Though to be fair, the interludes are a much more minimum this time around than they were on GKMC.

Make Reactionary Threads Brehs...

 

[GoldenGlove]

Though to be fair, the interludes are a much more minimum this time around than they were on GKMC.

There are only 2 interludes, but with the reoccurring poem that he's saying on some songs (whether it's the end or start of a song) and then the end of "i" and the end of Mortal Man... I would say it's comparable

I wonder how it makes Drake or Rick Ross feel?
