PurrpI’m using term the same very loosely tbh lmao bc I really only mean in a smaller sense of their intensely collaborative nature, their subsequent larger than life impact/held weight in the genre and extreme high quality.
I could also say they both sought to go for a singular maximalist vision (with more emphasis on collaboration than usual to make this happen, with an anything and anyone goes type spirit in the recordings) by any means possible even tho their goals were completely different
These two albums I hear and think wow the musicianship is really on display in every single detail of the album. They both standout to a crazy extent in the genre. Also similar in how they aren’t like much else in hip hop as a whole and reception wise they’re a lot of “rap sucks but this is amazing” type peoples fav hip hop albums
Idk it’s something that’s hard to explain on KTT sorry for rambling but in my mind they’re similar (to an extent)
I respect that fam you’re good don’t apologize fr. They are both amazing pieces of artists, especially when the sound/approach is different at the time they dropped

Mar 15PurrpThey’re the same album in a very specific sense imo. Main artist putting together a mega dream team to make a one work of art greater than anyone them solo.
I think TPAB is a more important work and better personally tho
Agreed

insertcoolnamehereIn hindsight: negus aged like milk ( africans was like “
” ) and that pac interview while creative wassssssabitcornyandmelodramaticandhighlightedevenbackthenkendrickwasntreallywiththeshitsBut, I see the vision.
And it doesnt ruin the album for me
The last poem where he lays out the entire meaning of the album is kinda ass and spoonfeeds the listener too much
Only real complaint I have

When I heard Pac voice on Mortal man
Mar 15Greatest rap album of all time. Still remember my first listen. When Kendrick says pac’s name over and over and it just cuts off
