Funny he never claimed the West sound like that and now his career surmount literally milking off it even benchmarking against other Compton based artists he arguably the prodigal son from Game to Jay Rock f*** even Tyga they all incorporated west sound on their repertoire at some point of their career so it seems quite forced to me all this west resurgence all of the sudden

When you’ve never heard GKMC

188 minutes

Crine

GKMC is about the west but sonically is far from being a west coast album lol name one song that resonates to any og west coast sound tbh the production itself sounds more east than west..
TPAB is the most west of them all I would say being KingKunta the only song of his career he blatantly embraced it

I don’t think this drops tomorrow/ tonight bc he won’t wanna cannibalize his own sales

I hope he has another album coming but I definitely wouldn’t want it to be literally coming out a week later. Let GNX breathe. It’s so good.

I think if he released another album 6 months later that would be cool

Maad City come on man

So they pushed squabble up to radio but they are pushing another kendrick lamar song to radio next tuesday which is weird because it just says kendrick lamar usually if the track is released it would say the title of the song

Half a song doesn't really count does it since first part is way more south than west lol

There's no way its not Luther fam

That s*** is a certified hit

If Kendrick drops a deluxe tomorrow, I doubt it'd have single type tracks on it

Why would he step on his own records that are working?

i need this

A lot of the album is some trim Dr Dre / LBC soul funk sounds

i want this theory to be true, esp with how the song teased on the trailer isn't on the album.

^ i hope he actually releases the gnx trailer song unlike this one

what's the verdict yall think he'll drop another one soon?

Dre doesn't have one production credit on the whole album lol line-up with T-Minus, Hit-Boy Just Blaze, Pharrell definitely a west coast classic..
Only relatable one is The Recipe and that's it lets face it whole narrative just won't stick

lol I’m saying the sounds not the names

It’s also crazy that we’re tryna discount just how west coast a rapper is because… of the production ? I thought we were rap fans not beat fans

Ok name one interpolation segue sample off GKMC that sounds west besides second beat on Maad city pls you said yourself trim soul funk what is that part of songwriting?

"GKMC is about the west" dumbass shoulda stopped right there

Yall on Kendrick d*** yall philosophers though cant even hold on to yall premises talking about west sound appropriation I made my point already tbh Kendrick is so west then he just dropped his westest album so far and he got not even one of his west day ones on his album instead he jacked whole Taylor Swift team for that west sound lmao see yall trying too hard its actually cute

soon

Inshallah
