    Which one is better (Kendrick Lamar parts only, beat included)

    Deep water IMO, one of the top bangers of the decade

    DNA very easily, Deep Water is the worst of the Kendrick tracks on Compton imo. It's a cool song but mad overrated.

    The beat on Deep Water is crazy. It's lowkey and a b-----r at the same time. Also, Compton slander is the worst.

    I'll go with Deep Water... Compton is hella underrated... Kenny and Andre have yet to disappoint on a track yet.

    Deep water. Honestly I feel like Kenny says DNA too many times and it annoys me. I just like deep water more as a all around song.

    Compton has so much great music honestly, its overlooked so much, very underrated, Kendricks verses on it is just crazy. For the love of money sounds heavenly. Production is insane. I feel like the only reason its so overlooked an underrated is because people weren't expecting it to sound like it did an waited for detox so long an all the leaks from detox were nothing like what was on compton.
