    Alright, I've pretty much had N95 on repeat all day (image below has what I played all day). I mean, god N95 is just a f---ing classic b-----r, top 10 in his discog and it's not even a question for me. I think I'm going to return to this album, I might actually give it a 2nd listen tomorrow. I think my main gripe still stands, that it's not "sonically" as pleasurable as his previous releases. On a lyrical content though, mans f---ing popped off on this. I honestly don't know how to even rank it. I'ma sit on this for a minute. I remember liking only 1 track off of Dawn FM when it first came out and it's my most played album of the year so far (like just over 1000 plays).

    I liked the mature / introspective tracks but yikes this album overstayed its welcome. I mean clumsy verses, messy, overproduced, and underproduced beats, and some of the worst melodies I’ve ever heard from an artist of this caliber. Like they sound like they’re wandering all over the beat trying to find where they belong, as if they were made up on the spot.

    I gotta listen again but this isn’t anywhere near as good as d---. You can tell Kendrick didn’t know what to do with this one and felt pressured to drop something. Kinda felt like a weird mixtape tbh, he needs to work on his sound the most.

    I honestly don't like Donda, I prefer CLB

    Maybe I need a relisten? But it's so hard to relisten to g.d. an hour and a half of material that's not a deluxe

    I think this album was made in months. Maybe in the same sessions of melodic blue because it has a similar sounding.
