because he made it up in thin air pretty much

kendrick does his rappity rap stuff mainly on features, never got that vibe from his albums

i think maybe they hear one or two words they have to look up and they dismiss it as a word salad

I’ll have to go back to Morale in particular

Warriors in conans hope euphoria can slow dance is a famous one off top. Any time he raps fast though he starts putting some filler words in

I mean it kinda is a a knock on it. He ends it off by saying how dope is it really when you only want to listen to 2/3s of it.

I would like for Kendrick to give us at least one mixtape type of project where he's rapping random streams of thought over stadium friendly/heavy bass type of production. A workout/ ride around album.

Start "talking his s***". Give us some slick braggadocios bars. Then he can get back to his thematic albums.

After Morale where else is there for him to go if he's gonna continue his typical theme albums ?Fom Section 80 to MM he's covered so much of his personal life . Now it's time for a total pivot.

this is the third post ive seen like this too, why are people docking points from kendrick's music because he's not making banger whip music?

it's genuinely like this site's userbase got dumber as the years went by, it's really sad to see

it's not a knock at all, different projects offer different forms of replay-ability for different people, it's really not that deep at all - within this thread alone you have people saying they haven't went back to it, others say they play it all the time, every now and then etc.

if we're judging the quality of albums off the basis of how often they're listened to/sheer enjoyability then pop is objectively the superior genre

just because other mainstream friendly albums get more burn on a block, club, car etc. doesn't make it a "better" album, and i don't even know why this notion has to constantly be went over

it's pretty much the reason why that sales thread even exists, im starting to think you lot are just insecure about what you listen to

Let me be clear, i'm a big Kdot fan since the Kendrick Lamar EP and I'm definitely not dissing his music .

But it's like watching your favorite actor only do one type of movie. You want to see them add variety to their catalogue especially when they have the ability to, thats all it is bruh.

The deleted post my post was a response to was about how Justin hunte wasn't tryna knock the album in the video.

But to ur point, just like albums have different levels of replayability. People also have different criterias of what makes an album "better" and replayability might be of more significance than some.

And an album having replayability doesn't inherently mean it has a lot of sales, just means u urself play it a lot lol

It's my most played album of this year, that's all that matters to me

Guy gifted us Baby Keem for those. Also like 2words said playlist chasing joints of his albums are the weakest part despite being listenable but I still find sad that he needs to put those or his work would sell like TPAB did.

well sure, then that's when we would get into the realm of subjectivity, i personally don't see why i need to constantly play a project and have it in my rotation to sing its praises

i have plenty of albums and projects that i hold in very high regard that i dont play because i either grew out of that taste that i had then, i might of burned it out from playing it so much, it may be too dense for a casual listen etc. but none of this has bearing on the actual quality of the music for me, and i don't really see why it exactly would

i listen to a lot of griselda but i dont think they're mind-blowing or anything, they make cool stuff to just throw on

it's pretty much the central critique ive seen delivered from drake stans and other detractors, since kendrick was rapping about "smoking on top 5s" i guess that set up the expectation of him rapping on a mainstream sound with no conceptual/thematic scheme

pretty dumb imo, and not really worth taking seriously
