especially when you consider his thought process making this one too (TLDR = 3 different genres, 3 languages, 3 different generations"
3 generations = Top, Kennys dad, Kenny (if i remember his words correctly)

at the top of my head also, i remember the beats being sent seperate (wonder if this was from an interview back in 2017, i forget) and the people at Kendricks camp sort of stitched them together theirselves

Edit. i intially thought those two interviews seemed somewhat conflicting but my guess is 9th wonder made these beats in sequence and in alligningment with his concept but the beats were "seperate" etc, and then Kendricks camp stitched them together BUT according to 9ths premise.

came to post this

Remember the game rapping over that first beat ?

new slaves obviously

ok that was fire

Worth a mention as well

Both classics

this whole album is full of incredible beat switches

One of the best and you all gonna sleep. Smh

The subtle ones be the best

Damn, almost forgot this one

Second half feels so empty without the sample

Definitely, but the switchup remains great

This tape really underrated, in comparison to his other recent works
