I love the album and been listening non-stop since drop (with 2 skips ngl ) but he flopped fr and the reason it matters is because It’s just going to encourage artists to continue to drop cookie cutter mid that sells with casuals. Him flopping is an L for music.
what are the 2 skips
what are the 2 skips
We Cry Together (I don’t hate it but I’ve had enough of it) and Auntie Diaries
Only in comparison to himself he flopped
Yeah, that’s what matters though. If Adele 30 sold 286k, we’d all be calling it a massive flop.
At the end of the day…Kanye better
There is no artist on the planet alive better than Kanye.

Yes, sadly I very agree w this. Back to tik tok music we go
Females are the new A&Rs
Sorry yalls fav album floppin cuz of it
this s*** is for the women tf
On a serious note, I think one of the reasons why this album disappeared from a lot of people's minds that quickly is because, even though thematically he's doing something wildly different than on past projects, musically he really isn't. In a sense, I look at MM&BS as an upgraded version of Damn., both in terms of instrumentation as song structure. The change from GKMC to TPAB to Damn was huge though, on the contrary.
Think about it, Damn also shifted constantly between pop-rap tracks (LOVE, GOD) to more left-field production (ELEMENT) to pretty straightforward bangers (DNA, HUMBLE), just like this new album. Even the way the long, emotional tracks of that album are structured is pretty much similar to Mother I Sober and Auntie Diaries - a few long verses reminiscing about the past real life stories that eventually culminate into a "surprise" conclusion. Thing is, that surprise hits hard if you don't expect it, on those two tracks you could see it coming. Which doesn't mean that those tracks aren't great, they just leave less of an impact than the ones that came before them.
Great take. First time I’ve seen someone articulate this but I’ve been thinking this. Sonically it feels like damn pt2 in a way and I definitely wanted a new idea but idk where he’s supposed to go at a point. I imagine he’s just making s*** he likes to ride around to
At the end of the day…Kanye better
Kanye the best artist. Kendrick the best Mc. I’m probably closest to a ye Stan but you’re smoking glass d*** if you think ye (w no writers) is touching Kendrick, bar for bar. Ye looses
everything is exaggerated on twitter kendrick ain't expose s***
album a solid 7, decent body of work

Kendrick better rapper and better content, Kanye better songs

Agreed. No one touching ye in terms of the full picture of music. He gets it. My top is
1. Ye 2. Kendrick 3. Carti 4. Drake 5. Dom

Real. Kanye my favorite all time but as of right now my ranking for who’s dropping the best stuff would probably be
Kendrick album was good. I got it as a good 7/10 but I was expecting a classic after 5 years off. A MBDTF or GKMC level album
At the end of the day…Kanye better
Yup, dudes were saying kdot was better before this drop like Kanye didn’t make tcd, graduation, mbdtf etc
I have been truly blown away by the new Kendrick. I’ve loved him since section.80 so I expected nothing less. I knew everyone wouldn’t be on the same page about the reviews obviously, but to see the exaggerated response on twitter and everywhere else about his album sales are sickening. He put his soul into a project for people to pick apart his worth based on sales. Comparing him to f***ing uzi saying L. Jokes. K dot a legend for real and needs to be treated like one. That is all.
my auntie is a man now!
(Sorry guys my laptop just broke so I got too much time right now)
great opinion
i too am an enjoyer of honest lovely art

It’s crazy to me that the same dudes that get mad excited over an Alchemist beat (though don’t get me wrong I love alchemist too) slander Kanye like 5 minutes later. Literally GOAT producer and artist.

Prime Kanye has better bars than Kendrick bro (even if who wrote it is questionable)
Kendrick is one of the best storytellers and rhymers of all time but he is mad overrated when it comes to bars

Ahhh, idk. The fact that Kanye has writers I don’t know if you can even compare him to an mc like Kendrick. I hear you tho, college dropout & LR bars untouchable
