Keem can do better too, this joint sounds like a rip off Wheezy produced song, SOBH and DFMB had way more creative and impressive songs than this one, this leak sounds like a underdeveloped reference track

this asap ricky seems like he lacks serious musical knowledge.

wolf80 been dropping facts for a long time, objectively.

He does. I had to block him because he thinks his anecdotal opinion is somewhat based in objective fact.

Objective fact:

DAMN. Second highest tested album behind TPAB

Only Pulitzer Prize popular music has ever had

Being taught as Poetry in schools

Won 5 Grammys

Classic tour, classic Coachella performance

Still charting to replay value crazy

Humble is a diamond single.

Album sold 600 K

Every metric it superseded expectations. Except he doesn’t like classic songs like Duckworth and Feel.

He is crazy

his 2nd best imo

i keep reminding myself that we would’ve had an album if it wasnt for covid and that s*** will always piss me off

DAMN. Second highest tested album behind TPAB - how exactly

Only Pulitzer Prize popular music has ever had - means nothing

Being taught as Poetry in schools - ok

Won 5 Grammys - borderline meaningless as grammys are given out to every popular person

Classic tour, classic Coachella performance - tour was so boring compared to others, didnt do anything special

Still charting to replay value crazy - again, meaningless

Humble is a diamond single - completely meaningless, song is redundant amongst actual hip hop heads

Album sold 600 K - yes he's a popular artist

Every metric it superseded expectations. Except he doesn’t like classic songs like Duckworth and Feel. - buzzwords

It’s crazy. Kendrick would’ve also pulled off a classic Glastonbury performance.

And be in the middle of one of the most impressive festival runs.

Discussion would’ve been at an all time high about his fiat status. 🤦🏾‍♂️

yes all of this is true...also everybody laughes at ricky on a daily basis so you clearly can't take him seriously.

I'm not surprised at DAMN. being the 2nd highest rated rap album of all time...because it is the 2nd best album of all time, after TPAB

as a former professional music critic, I have to admit DAMN is a true masterpiece.

yep, I used to dislike it but this has become my favorite kendrick album, and probably my favorite album of the past 2 decades. It's musically flawless from an objective angle

joe budden is right, kendrick might be the only rapper with 4 classics under the belt

I still can't believe how good Pride. is, it is the perfect influenced Beatles track...Kendrick is the only artist that managed to replicate their SMBD trick

album comin in september, trust me

if only

can't believe it was supposed to drop a few months ago :(

after all, it really depends on how you can relate to a song/album, sometimes I bond to songs that are not masterpieces from a musical point of view but appear at the right moment in my life and are timeless. FEEL is one of them, I needed that song and it is always there when I need it.

Not a fan of his music but I really like what he said

need Feel part 2

Id say Feel is a masterpiece from a musical standpoint tho. No one else writing and rapping like that besides the greats

i need it

i was gonna see him perform the new album this week

It’s time for Kendrick to drop. Right now would be nice

Festivals and s*** might not be back till 2022 aswell. If thats what is really delaying him then it will be 5 years since damn. lol

damn
