They want the album about his perspective
On a song about him learning to be an ally
To somehow speak to the transgender experience he has never experienced
Facts lol just look at 808’s the example being used. If you told people in 08 it’ll be one of the most influential albums of all time people would’ve clowned you.
Exactly lol same thing with Yeezus in a way. Niggas were convinced Kanye broke his classic album run and called it a death grips rip-off. Now it’s influential in its own right
Nah lol Pitchfork literally the only publication to give it a lower score so far and probably will be the only one. Everyone else I’ve see has been ridiculously high.
Only 7 reviews on there so far though, probably gonna be 30+

There's like over 20 publications that are yet to review this
Actually hoping this album settles on a cool 75 or something on metacritic, so y'all can stop caring so much about em.
7.6 is fair relative to his other work, p good rating imo
Yeah it's fair, but do you see the folks that were losing their s*** in here lol
this is seems like such a step up and return to his GKMC/TPAB peak compared to DAMN imo. crazy to me that this got a worse score
even at the time it seemed like sites like Pitchfork were overrating DAMN a bit because the critical consensus around Kendrick was so unbreakable coming off the back of TPAB
Yeah it's fair, but do you see the folks that were losing their s*** in here lol
its wild dawg these critics are not our saviors
7.6 is fair relative to his other work, p good rating imo
U really think it's that much worse than Damn?
I liked Damn but this deeper and better imo

AAAH s*** you said the thing

I still think most of the reviews are going to be very positive.

There’s no way this is a 7.6 and DAMN is a 9.2. Lol cmon now.

tbh my main thing is that like i appreciate the components of the song separately than i do together if that makes sense? Like the subject matter and introspection is always welcomed but when it comes in the form of a song, the most important thing to me is how it sounds. Damn sounds great to me and i love the content. Content carries this album more-so than the music itself, I could see why someone would say its his best or his worst tbh
"he makes himself the main character in his queer relatives’ stories "
what did they mean by this
They really said this?

i think they want it like sing about me where he singing from 26 different perspectives
this the nigga they send out when they wanna give rappers bad scores for problematic takes on their albums
him or alphonse
i definitely think this is one of those albums dumber people will not understand
kendrick stans doing up “not intel of gents enough” like j coleslaw stans
Independent thought is forever a win in my book
