K Dot said the tracklisting is fake. Can't see him dropping an album without Black Hippy on it.
But outside of crew loyalty, let's be real, Kendrick Lamar does NOT need any features. He can carry a project on his own. nikkas like Nas, Lupe and K Dot have the talent to do so.
I find it hilarious when people complain about a lack of features or even have the audacity to say that without some key features the album won't be as good as it should be. Lazy ass, scared ass, shallow ass emcees who don't have the talent or subject matter to carry an album on their own have you nikkas feeling like features should be the standard.
You don't ever hear people saying "Damn...that Beatles album was ill, but I can't believe Paul and them ain't reach out to The Bee Gees for that collabo."
I buy albums for THE artist. 2 or 3 features sprinkled throughout a 14 track album is fine with me, but anything beyond that ratio and the shyt start losing points in my book.
The only features I'm interested in as a hip hop fan are the hook/singing features(and even too many of those get on my nerves...make your own fukking hooks nikka) and who is featured on the production.
fukk your Lil Wayne, Drake, Kanye and Rick Ross features. They usually have the weakest verse on the album, anyway.
Drake's debut "Thank Me Later" was a pretty good album but the fact it had so many features - and that he legit got outshined on THREE of them - hurt it's legacy as a project that displayed HIS talent.

Capitol sonned this threadDamn are people that jealous of the fact that more hip-hop fans fukk with K.Dot then Lupe
sad just sad

idc about that this is his debut
And you have a problem with him trying to expand his fanbase?
Lady Gaga has a good voice, but judging by the title that song will be some lesbo shyt to endear him to hipsters.
"Kendrick Lamar isn't a threatening black man like Birdman"- one of the GOAT coli quotes, I'm still laughing at how stupid that shyt was.

It doesn't automatically stop, I'm sure if I looked at some of my fav albums they would be more than 45 mins but as a general rule it's good to say that most albums after 14 tracks have a gang of filler and that can ruin the while album
I'm not mad at all about the tracklist. 12 tracks is fine to me I'm just saying why does everyone think it's virtually impossible to pull off a 60+ minute album with no filler. It all boils down to the artists/labels choice in tracks and one person might think all tracks are classic while another might not be feeling a couple songs. outside of the wu and illmatic most albums can be argued for either side.
I just don't understand why people think that good music automatically stops being produced around 45 minute mark like the music gods stop it from happening or something.
Finally someone here speaks the truth about features. Albums like that "Blueprint 3" album was absolutely pathetic. How in the hell do you have 4/5 solo tracks on an entire album?
I don't know why is it that in hip hop people are still in this mindset of getting orgasms over having 20 of their "homies" on their own album.
Can barely learn to stand on their own two feet. At least emcees like Rakim, can understand and show this whenever they are releasing a new record.
This looks very underwhelming
