Yup..album of the year comfortably.This album is just crazy good. Instant classic.
Kendrick's music is quite dense and can be quite difficult to get into, lord knows it took me a while to get into Overly Dedicated. It's all personal preference though, if he outsells Rick Ross etc. first week then it's excellent for hip-hop. People might actually try to make albums and not cobble a bunch of songs together.Don't feel him that much, Royce's early albums were better
Really?He can take a while to get into, I had to listen to Section.80 at least ten times before it grew on me, then I couldn't get enough and went back on his discography.
Anyone (Everyone, actually) I recommend Kendrick to I tell them to at least give him a few listens. Suppose good kid, m.A.A.d city will attract a lot more fans though.
good kid or Section.80?Really?
I am not a massive hip hop fan but I liked most songs on the first listen, which is rare for me. It is a very commercial hip hop record but very good one, none the less.
You're not Kendrick Lamar so what does it matter to you if I pay for it? Snobbish comment.Yeah on iTunes.
Why would you listen to something 10 times if you didn't like it the first couple? Sounds like you're talking out of your arse.He can take a while to get into, I had to listen to Section.80 at least ten times before it grew on me, then I couldn't get enough and went back on his discography.

If an albums getting high praise I usually give it a shot, it's not as if I hated it, just appreciated it more with every listen, ye twat.Why would you listen to something 10 times if you didn't like it the first couple? Sounds like you're talking out of your arse.
That's not what you originally said, ye dope.If an albums getting high praise I usually give it a shot, it's not as if I hated it, just appreciated it more with every listen, ye twat.
Because hip-hop needs to go in the right direction, it needs to filter out the bullshit and start making proper cohesive albums. Kendrick has let Cartoon's and Cereal, Westside Right On Time and The Heart Pt. III out for free. Buy fecking albums, it's not fecking snobbish at all. People fecking whinge about how music is shit then they don't even support good projects when they come out.You're not Kendrick Lamar so what does it matter to you if I pay for it? Snobbish comment.
Nothing commercial about 12 minute long songs. If you go past the production elements and listen deeply it's very dense and arguably inaccessible for the masses. It's quite an exhausting listen, which is something I actually enjoy.Really?

It just sounds like fairly standard commercial hip hop to me. There are a lot of commercial RNB flavours in there too. I swear that he uses the same vocal effect on the mike as Drake.Nothing commercial about 12 minute long songs.

I don't agree with the Drake part, don't really think this is what you'd call a radio friendly album either to be fair.It just sounds like fairly standard commercial hip hop to me.

I don't think that having a 12min song on there really detracts from the commercial sound. I like the album though, after the first listen I knew that it was going to be a big album.
Motherfecking sample clearance saw to that, feck.I'd have maybe had Cartoon & Cereal in place of Poetic Justice on the album, think Poetic Justice would've been better as a bonus track.
Nicely done.http://www.theshirker.com/viewpost.php?id=1183**
This sums up the narrative relatively well if not perfectly.
I don't like it at all, but for some reason it's stuck in my head.Poetic Justice has grown on me.
But it's not, I like Earl but a few multi's and everyone wets themselves. I don't feel the emotion he should be conveying in that song. It's a cool song though but has nowt to do with Black Hippy.I don't know how to post this on here, and I'm too lazy to look for the YouTube link, but this Earl Sweatshirt song is better than any song on GKMC.

I hope this helps.
Yeah, I know it has nothing to do with Black Hippy but I didn't know where else to put it mostly.But it's not, I like Earl but a few multi's and everyone wets themselves. I don't feel the emotion he should be conveying in that song. It's a cool song though but has nowt to do with Black Hippy.
It's all personal taste.I do like it more than anything on GKMC though, aside from maybe Money Trees.
