Real question. If this WAS Kendrickās last album ever, how would yāall feel with it and his career?
Count Me Out, Rich Spirit, and N95 sound cheaply produced and are the worst songs on the album
Auntie Diaries sounds so somber, like heās super disappointed in himself for acting how he did
Pretty dope fr
Oh it definitely has been and will be. People are heinous. I think that says more about them than Kendrick though.
Kendrick is trying to invite ignorant people like he was in and change them and the effectiveness of that is something I question. Not just with transphobia, like with black on black violence or any other issue he tackles. He's appealing to those people and showing them in stark detail how he escaped it. I think the missing piece is always going to be money though. He rarely examines that part of it.
Or like realizing maybe music cannot embed the humanity of transgender people on cis people the way that just knowing them irl does (like him with his uncle/cousin). So maybe just celebrating them instead of using it as a moment to teach. But hey, pickings are pretty slim on this topic.
this is an interesting perspective. i'll definitely have to think on this a lot more, thank you
Die Hard is right there
1 potential. Damn had multiple joints with lengthy radio runs
Instrumental magical
Deep song as well
Get the f*** outta here if you disagree

GOAT
I think his next album is going to be all bangers though to really shut everyone up.
lmao nah fr
How you feeling about this so far?
Also forgot to quote you in black hair thread but your braids looking fire, seems like you're thriving dawg
Critics like the concept of Kendrick more than Kendrick himself, just like critics hate the concept of ye more than ye himself.
It is doing him a disservice when it's so obvious. No matter how great and how much you like this album it is not a perfect album, it is not meant to be
Yea I can get behind this, the reviews for Donda were egregious lmao and focused more on Ye as a concept than the work.
āThis is the best album of life ā¦.. etc etcā memes is really derailing the thread
I hope this isnāt the start of a gross trend
this has literally been happening for 10+ years

Real
well i can answer this one
this album isn't enjoyable to listen to while GKMC, TPAB & Damn are
thats where the shock comes from
Itās exactly this. The album itself, as a piece of art, is extremely good. Much of it is just not enjoyable though. But again, Kendrick wasnāt trying to make us feel good. Doesnāt mean I need to pretend that I like listening to some of this like some are very obviously doing.

ngl i aint seen anybody say that itt
just the full on opposite actually

great
Album is like doing a Malort shot( which tastes like sewage mixed with boat gasoline), you do it once so you can say you did it, but itās not something you can go back to constantly.
thank you northshorewhiteguy
Who else thought the tapdancing at the end of we cry together was some staggered tantric backshots
