shyt is just repetitive and gets annoying after a while.

Imagine someone telling you the dopest story for the first time and have you like :gladbron:

then the next day they tell you the same story word by word and you be like yea yea nikka you told me, dope story tho

then the day after telling you the exact same story and have you like :stopitslime:

then the day after you heard it so much you can finish his stories like y'all dating

it's cool if you have one or 2 songs like that on an album but damn near 80% of the tracks. :smh:

Keisha's Song had no reply value?

now i heard everything because i still play that song til this day.

Obviously if you bump one track, it's fine but listening to an album back to back will have you thinking he's narrating a novel.

I forgot Kendrick spits intellectual rap so he can't be slandered. He needs to change it up if he wants to be heard on the radio.

Who cares about that? His fanbase wasn't looking for him to make radio friendly music. That the opposite of what they wanted:beli:

Yeah but it's not a book my dude - it's music. There's a lot more goin on then the stories in his lyrics. There are musical aspects that give replay value. If lyrical themes gave replay value we'd get bored of every album once we knew how the lyrics went.
