Joe need to stop being a one listen wonder and just digest the music like everyone else man
Nigga heard Kendrick go in a direction he ain’t expect and ran to his platform and said “this is not the album!”
2 things can be true at once.
There can be another album on tuck and this can be a very quality project.
He treated this project like a throwaway with the way it was released and he’s been working on something for at least a couple years.
This sounds like his last few months. It sounds like a piece of music to satisfy that itch fans have for blood and stamp his victory
I don’t think he wants his main entree to have s*** to do with this beef. He can go back to being a responsible superstar with a grander message on the possible album in question.
It’s not that far fetched of a prospect, but we will see
makes sense: he’s been doing a series of jazz shows based on popular movies, playing at the restaurant owned by manny marroquin (who mixed mr. morale) this particular evening was inspired by the movie mo’ better blues, which was one of the main inspirations for to pimp a butterfly. terrace martin been a goat
Would kill to go to one of those intimate shows. Fr the perfect setting
His points all sounded straight from Twitter and the Kendrick Reddit
Hes getting his takes from akademiks btw
ak said the same things word for word but as he was livestreaming the album
I got 9 songs in my playlist, still bumping
question, do y’all save albums as individual playlists or do you just save the album itself?
I make playlists in case I wanna change the covers lol
Squabble up

So I’m not trippin huh? Same thing happened with Like That
I was playing it off my phone while I was cooking and I was surprised I had the volume on max cause normally I can hear music off my phone over my vent fan but this was hard to hear and I don’t remember it being like that the other day
Squabble up
https://twitter.com/big_business_/status/1861682204406944113It wasn’t even a diss
No way lmaooooooo
Why would it mean that?

i add them to playlists
over the years ive started cataloging music by years in playlists to keep track of when it came out, but i also make specific playlists for certain artists
if im just gonna listen to that album ill play it from the album link usually
then i have separate lists for certain things too, and ill only put a handful of songs or appropriate songs in them

You can tell he is with how much love he puts into his music videos

Only thing I don’t like about this line of thinking is that it downplays GNX
I disagree that these are throwaways, the production quality is through the roof and these are some of the catchiest songs Kendrick has ever wrote. The execution is just too high level for this to be dismissed as some side project. With mixtapes/compilations and s*** like that there is usually a step down in quality and that is absolutely not the case here. What is the case is this is a more minimalist sound for Kendrick with lighter concepts, that doesn’t invalidate it as an “official Kendrick Lamar album” though. I hate that take lol.
Now is it possible that he has more in the tuck? Sure, I can see that being the case. But if so I think whatever THAT is would be the mixtape/side project. Either that or it would be a sequel to GNX, or a completely separate album with a different sound. In either case GNX is THE ALBUM right now. GNX is Kendrick’s 6th studio album. We need to accept that lol.

I don’t know why there has to be a “real” album
If he drops again why can’t both projects be “real” lol

Exactly
That’s what I’m saying
Saying this ain’t the real album is just code for saying it’s mid lol, if that’s what you think just say that, f*** all these wild theories about what might be coming next, this is what we have now

This feels like you’re trying to defend your love of the album by denying the possibility of another project and less like youre trying to be objective about the likelihood of it happening.
I like the album too bro.. but it’s not like some groundbreaking s*** happening here either. It’s just dope
