My favorite album of all time

they be trying too hard 2 be cool

TPAB is to Kendrick what The Big Day is for Chance

Big shift in sound that wasn't really asked for that could make or break a career. Kendrick always had the critics on his side tho and is seen as a rappers rapper so it was accepted and even gassed.

If he continued on like that I wouldn't be looking forward to any more projects. DAMN got me excited again and I hope we get K5 later this year.

need a song that's just that intro beat

Top 10

Big Day is an awful example.

all that talk ab no replay value is nonsense

top 10 Greatest hiphop album

this a masterpiece imo.

It’s funny because white people on ktt are the ones who say only white people liked this album. Everyone I knew listening to this album when it dropped and fw were black

There’s a reason it’s kendricks lowest selling album, if anything the gangster rappers that people hype up are the ones mainly white people listen to thats another discussion though.

it's just crazy that he made such a cohesive project, but each song is completely diff lol

niggas always joke about this not having no songs to play in front of the hoes, but alright goes crazy in public, king kunta bumps, these walls without intro is a jam

its def a personal headphones listening album, but he really got all types of different vibes for diff listening experiences, and still came out with a cohesive record.

Just saying it's a big departure from the music that made people fw them

A masterpiece. His magnum opus.

yea bro and its not even just yt ppl

non black people love gangster rap, they really feel like that's the "authentic black experience" lol

it is a whole diff discussion tho, id rather discuss how beautiful the sonics on this record is.

Classic dropped on birthday too

Still get goosebumps when I listen to this.

Incredible.

this the album that made him one of my favorite artist tbh.
Section 80 was great and GKMC was a classic but this right here.
Kendrick doesn't even have to top this imo but the fact he was able to make an album like this at his age and stage in his career, insane

Imo his best project followed by Section.80

My favorite song off of tpab and one of my favorites of all time

Never in my life have I seen so many people call something an absolute classic and grower two hours after release. It's a nice album (with flaws imo) but the hype back then was ridiculous. It was decided to be a classic before it was even released. Even though the reception to i was lukewarm as a lead single. Tbf The Blacker the Berry had people excited.

Every nigga is a star

When s***s the fan is you still a fan

album of the decade

he dropped DAMN. on my birthday
