Tbh i dont actually feel like on the album kendrick is that direct and blatant in ur face about it

To me its actually the critics and discourse around it added a lot of cringe meaning n s*** too it and afterreading some of the “big” opinions on it it seemed like they ehard a diff album to me - or just took alright and projected it onto he whole thing

My problem with tpab is more the songs while having nice raps and good quality lroduction, lacks a lot of musicality in a lot of the songs and i cant feep any desire to move and go a longg with a melody in hardly any of the tracks

stevie wonder had the best opinion on this album, when he said it was the best musical album we've ever heard in all of rap music

"lack of musicality"
dude really lacks musical knowledge if he believes the rap album with the best musical composition lacks musicality

It's true though

musically, its absolutely flawless.

Its not the thing is littered with weak melodies and weak hooks

Tripstarr

it literaly doesn't have a single weak hook/melody

melodies on this album are also all about TTC, which is the highest standard you can have in music. But yeah, keep doing u

tbh, besides tpab, have you ever heard another 10/10 album (only hip hop) ?

Tripstarr

There's a lot of albums that I love, but none that I would consider as flawless.
Tpab is probably the only one, maybe Illmatic as well but the syncopation on illmatic is messed up

My thoughts exactly. Everything about tpab seem perfect, even the way the producers managed to deal with them bebop scales or altered scales...everything is on point, that's crazy

Yep

On average artists simply don't know anything about these scales, syncopation, polyrhythms, shifting keys several times throughout a song, writing charts for several instruments or other more complex musical ideas.
I feel this musical ambition once tied to Kendrick's writing is what makes for a perfect listening experience. Like for example when the beat swells on "How Much A Dollar Costs" along with his increasingly frantic flow or how they the hard "Trap drums" seem almost at odds with the sweet and mellow sounding "Seventh Chords" on "Alright" or the dope head nodding hard hitting rhythm and the beat switch on "Institutionalized".

Kendrick really became a musician with this album

probably the only 10/10 album in decades.
