Still D.R.E.
The Next Episode
California Love

Gin & Juice

He needs some kind of gimmick for his rollout.

Doesn't seem like there's a lot of anticipation for a new Kendrick album tbh.

as soon as he drops The Heart Part 5 or whatever it'll be right back. but yeah after that blog post and the Keem features i figured we'd be getting more info by now. s*** is tight under wraps

I forgot this s*** show was the halftime show

I was visited by these 5 spirits (each representing a pillar of hip hop) during a particularly intense fever last Monday

bro that galaxy in the background making it look like he got a big ass Kung Lao hat on

January 28, 2022. You heard it here first.

kendrick Sme Girl is a well known witch and Top Dawg a demon as

oh nah eminem look CRAZY LMFAOOOO he look like a def jam vendetta character model

This show has potential to be worse than The Weeknd's

Kendrick's in a pretty bad position in terms of recognition/reception. Post-DAMN he was probably at the peak of mainstream recognition and success he's had in his career, despite TPAB being more well received in terms of critics (which doesn't matter overall, but he himself clearly seems to care about reception and criticism). The problem is that he's waited so long post-DAMN (almost legit half a decade now), unless he comes back like D'Angelo did Voodoo->Black Messiah level of masterpiece, people are going to think he fell off because of what's riding on it and especially his overall discog/legacy. In reality, I'm sure the majority of his time off post-DAMN hasn't even been spent working on an album or music; this is usually the case with artists taking post-album hiatuses, but the perception of that is never really conveyed to the public. On the other hand as well, while he's done a small handful of features and stunts (i.e. pgLang & KEEM), he hasn't really done enough to fill the gap between public activity the way his contemporaries usually do (look other artists like Drake, J Cole, Weeknd, etc. feature run between albums for example - hell, even more artsy rappers like Earl). There's an argument if he put out stuff too quickly that'd saturate his discog/legacy too though especially if the immediate work wasn't as good as his predecessor albums, so he's really stuck between a rock and a hard place. As someone else said in the thread though too, he's definitely also lost a decent amount of casual listeners - which may not matter to him necessarily, but that's also going to effect the perception and "scope" of whatever he drops within the context of his discog. It's going to feel like a lot more muted of a drop than DAMN for example no matter what, regardless of the amount of hype, unless it is for real an actual undisputable masterpiece

^unhinged

Yeah, that's what I mean. It'd have made sense if he did something major in terms of new music after the Baby Keem features or after that blog post. The hype levels were high back then but nothing new since then has basically made everything cool off again.

you don't find the business of the industry interesting?

the hype is not dead you just sad nothing dropped yet lol

I do I think its just the same old discussion every time a artist quiet

It's dead because he hasn't dropped or done anything.

Delusional. Family Ties went viral and people are thirsty for a new Kendrick album. Unlike the other two in the big three, Kendrick’s last project was well received.

Ima stay off KTT the week that s*** drops cause it’s going to be a s*** show on here lol

we will revisit this in 2 months
