I thinking being bored by well composed music and attempts at social commentary is pretty vapid actually

I love this whole "impact" narrative....
Please name the Album that has dropped in the last 5 years that made an impact? And what album that has ever dropped that made an impact on the rap game within 3 months after it being released?
With TPAB, I just appreciated the production being unique and every song having a narrative and a purpose. It sounds completely different than GKMC but yet It's just as good (in my opinion)
I can respect the people who don't like it or don't think it's great. But I hope those people can at least respect the fact it's not a typical cliche rap album with the same themes, production, and content...

I like the album. Completely different from GKMC, it''s alot more personal.
I get why it's dissapointing for some people. This album wasn't for you.
"No singles, no standout songs, no replay value and disappointing sales. GKMC was 10 times bigger."
Do you listen to albums for the radio singles?
No replay value for who? You?
Did Kendricks sales disappoint you?

Production wasn't unique though

Didn't Cole just go Platinum doing the same thing?
Cole's album was released in December last year, so naturally it had more time to go platinum. Your argument would work if they were both released within the same time period. If Kendrick's album ain't platinum in two months then you'd have a point. Guess we'll wait and see.

If it's not unique then whose album or sound does it sound similar to?
I'm not saying there has never been live instruments, jazz, funk, infused in a rap album. I'm just saying that is becoming more rare these days
Especially compared to the normal DJ Mustard or Mike Will beats that we normally hear on most albums it just felt different..
For older albums, the production reminded me of something from Common's catalog. Specifically LWFC, a lil bit of EC, but not too much. That album was way out there.
For newer albums, the only guy that comes to mind is Krit. He's always had that soulful/jazz sound going on with his music for years now.

I was gonna mention that Krit's production is the only thing currently that has similar feeling....
That's been my whole beef with these stans. Oooh Kendrick is so black power....Cyhi did a whole album of it. Ooooh jazz and funk....Krit been doing it. My beef is guys putting out shyt before Kendrick tried it (and did it better than Kendrick) and not getting credit. But fakkit come in here talking about Krit career died yet Kendrick biting his sound. THE fukk? Booth ain't bout shyt.For older albums, the production reminded me of something from Common's catalog.

nikkas thought that corny (i) was unique though with that forced ass hook.
. Y'all go ahead and hype up Kendrick but don't start talking like he's doing some innovative shyt. Ima ride for the true king every time like Napoleon rides for Drake

The most memorable thing about the album to me is some wierdo on IG dancing with a yam.
The Kendrick haters are getting pathetic at this point. Constantly making threads trying to convince themselves that this album isn't one of the best of the last decade.

Goddamn the kendrick haters are salty as fukk
Album is more critically reverred then his first and has sold more at this point than gkmc did at the same point.
But I guess when youre a corny fakkit you have to grasp at straws and create narratives when there is none.
Kendrick making these fakkits mad dropping back to back classic
Word. I'm really not understanding the claims people are making against Kendrick. The album was dope as hell. I mean, besides how critically acclaimed IT ACTUALLY IS (Go look up the stats) it's obviously a good album. Maybe they are missing the point. People trying to compare Big Sean album to Kendrick, when Sean album was half way decent. TPAB was amazing, and I really don't see how it's obvious. Please try and tell me to my face that TPAB is trash
But right, when y'all turn around a big up Lil B, I know just how serious to take you.
And that's a fact.
