    Not my favorite, but Snoop's parts in Institutionalized >>>>

    SO many moments on this album I could go on forever.

    - The piano on "For Free?", and the whole song in general
    - "Institutionalized", esp. Snoop's part
    - the "King Kunta" chorus
    - the very first beat on "Hood Politics", I wish it kept that beat the whole song

    it almost felt like the poem was a conclusion to Pacs legacy and letting him rest finally while the reigns are being taken properly. Took Kendrick a minute to realize Pac rested in peace. But he understood finally

    Well that is how it felt to me.

    Pac's legacy has been torn and tarnished ever since his death with crappy unreleased verses and even crappier rappers comparing themselves to him, but i feel like his legacy can finally be put to rest accordingly with this interview sample....

    The change up in the middle of "u" is my favourite. The sounds, the faint voices, the music... it's beautifully done.

    i love the beat switches. the beat switch on U is crazy along with the beat switch on Institutionalized. the live version of i with the acapella verse at the end is also one of my favorites.

    - 2nd verse

    For Free?
    - "f--- your sources, all distortion if you f--- it's more abortion
    More divorce courts and portion
    My check with less endorsement left me dormant
    Dusted doomed disgusted forced with

    Now my d-ck ain't free"

    King Kunta
    - Hook
    - When the guitar kicks in

    MFer if you did, then Killer Mike be platinum"

    The last 20 seconds of U is my favorite thing on this album. Right when he says "I'm f----- up, but i aint as f----- up as you." :wow: That last sax loop change :wow5:

    Alright is great too. One of those songs that gets a steady rotation when u got that aux.
