OP is right, unpopular opinion and hard to take for those that seek validation in critical reviews but it is far more listenable as a whole.

Are you a Kendrick fan?

Yes, GKMC is his best IMO. I don't give a f*** about social importance or anything people tack on to giving album reviews. I just want good music to live with.
For me UU felt far less laboured and is an easier listen. UU is the album he should've put out but he went full Grammy-bait.
Boring? Listen to Hood Politics and then delete this thread.

Being black and this album touching on our experiences isn’t a album review tactic. People lived through this album. It’s importance draws on a more realistic strand of our life than GKMC does. If you didn’t get it then it wasn’t for you.

It's a bullshit SJW narrative that serves to only ingratiate past racism rather than realise that black people are Americans and part of the society now. In some way Kendrick does touch on the other side of the ledger that black people themselves are responsible but the whole thrust of it comes from one particular viewpoint in American political thought today.
And that same viewpoint controls the publications that review the music and the music industry itself. When people make movies about slavery and WW2, they know it is going to garner more critical attention than if they did a blockbuster movie. That's just a given and undeniable.
Kendrick knows full well what he is doing and from GKMC onwards he is just getting too used to using it. The incident with him calling a fan off the stage for singing his lyrics was kind of despicable. But it would have ingratiated him further with the same crowd that likes to crow about things like racial injustice.
TL;DR
F*** the Grammybait political bullshit.
