Dec 11, 2022TPAB leftovers
Dec 11, 2022·1 replyI wish I could go back in time and tell myself not to listen to falsehoods ...
I will never feel like getting my s*** together after golden plays.
Dec 11, 2022TPAB sessions really might have been the greatest of all time for a rapper. Heard two albums plus leftovers from them and they're all great.

Threads like this are why “Crown” might be the quintessential kendrick song for me tbh.
First, TPAB era was such a special moment. These ideas (and why these joints wasnt on uu) you can see he actively was working out in real time. Addition by subtraction turning organized madness into a dope acapella prelude to Blacker The Berry. That 2nd verse on falsehood was on that one radio freestyle and the 3rd (
) was on i cd version. It’s things like this that show that Kendrick was very meticulous with the making of this album. It’s just funny cause like…none of this love and high praise for TPAB was around during its time. Like KTT1/niggas HATED the album, calling it “preachy” above all things. And before “it sold so you capping” nigga, even Kendrick said it. I remember when i came out during a very angry time in college and that whole song (and relatable 3rd verse) was like a sunshine on a cloudy day in audio form, and niggas was not f***ing with that song at. All.
And his constant mentioning of the reception of it ( last LP i tried to lift the black artist; I prophesied on my last song, you laughed at me, but when the s*** get brackin don’t you ask for me) showed it got to him heavy. I’m sure it must’ve hurt, considering before MM my nigga bore his SOUL on that album. Nigga was crying on a song thinking about his friend that passed away.
Just for niggas to complain on the internet there was “no bangers”
Think tonight I realized why TPAB probably his least favorite album. Even if its arguably his best.

Dec 11, 2022·editedLeaks like these are interesting peek into the creative process, like he interpolated his own songs in what actually came out. Did the same with vent, out of pocket and n95

I think the biggest thing that got to him was the backlash over blacker the berry and niggas calling him a coon and all that. If u watch that part of the interview with rob markmen his whole demeanor kinda switch up and u can tell he irritated. I think that combined with the s*** about the 2020 riots led to what he was talking about in crown and mirror

You replace Mr Morale with TPAB and TPAB with GKMC and the discourse now looks identical to what it was back on 2015/2016 KTT -
