Kendrick Lamar's top 25 albums

[TMillzy]

So we mad that somebody that grew up in Compton doesnt have Illmatic or any other album on his list? And a lot of west coast albums? I'm sorry, not everybody is going to like the usual Illmatic, Paid in Full, RD, Ready to Die, etc. I'm actually tired of rappers naming the same damn albums over and over. This nikka has Stillmatic at #3, what more do you want? Kendrick was 7 when Illmatic came out. Let the stannery go ya'll, got damn.

Kendrick Lamar's 25 Favorite Albums | Complex

this list proves my point about dude. he is a lover of a kind of hiphop you rarely hear nowadays. not just westcoast. but raps about REAL LIFE, the good with the bad.
Quik, Dre,biggie, Nas, jay, Snoop, pac, Cube, The Clipse, Juvee, E-40, lauryn hill, etc, would give you some fun party rap, would give you some floss rap, but would also give you that life rap. whats going on where i'm from commentary. that last part is missing in hiphop right now.

Yall little faggits need to calm down.. if a thread was to be made on here asking people to post their 25 best albums of all time..every single list will be unique.

stop the crying..this site has become a true coalition of cornballs since this album leaked.

the problem is every list WOULDNT be unique. you know why. they would be to afraid of their own mindset hating on their personal opinions. to give a legit personal opinion. so they would list the most used top 25 rappers. and hope thats enough to not start a fire storm.

They aren't ranked. These are in chronological order.; just like Nas' favorites list.

Kind of surprised to see Stillmatic instead of Illmatic though.

Ya'll picking anything to hate on K. Lamar...hilarious.

 

[hex]

The only complaint I have is he should've had Quik on "m.A.A.d city" with Eiht. That would've been

Fred.
