Jan 24, 2016 I think so too. I tried to avoid it due to the dickriding & praise but I can't front, this is easily the best album I have heard in a very long time.
Jan 24, 2016 yep, and like critics said, you can have an argument for it being top 10 of all time in any genre. maybe not impact wise, but quality wise? definitely.
Jan 24, 2016 This is where Kendrick is head and shoulders above his peers, he's transcending hip hop. You know your album is special when every professional, musician and people with good musical knowledge praise ur album as GOAT
Jan 24, 2016 yep Drake is my favorite but he may never release such an album, an album praised as one of the best.
Jan 24, 2016 they just feel insecure because tpab is being praised as a modern classic and true masterpiece in any genre they also can't back up their opinion with good arguments so they can't say anything...and if they try to go edgy, there's always someone reminding them that tpab is gonna be celebrated in music while their favorite artist's work will get panned years from now.
Jan 24, 2016 gkmc was widely praised as the best hip hop album of the new generation and now tpab is praised as GOAT, and not just in hip hop. Imagine how mad they are right now
Jan 24, 2016 let them hate, it won't change the fact that tpab is a near flawless record, their pseudo jealousy ain't gonna change s--- So TPAB: -the consensus AOTY according to the critics, its also #1 on 90% of the end year lists. http://www.metacritic.com/feature/critics-pick-top-10-best-albums-of-2015 -the highest rated hip hop album of all time on Metacritic. -the reason kendrick has the most nominations in one night at the grammy (since Michael Jackson in 84). -has 2 songs being played in protests, one of them is named the new black anthem. -being taught at some universities. -had a scholarship in its name. -influenced some goat artists like David Bowie, Prince and Chuck D, all in the same year. -the highest rated album of the decade in any genre on multiple platforms like RYM that only take people's rankings into account. -had RollingStone Magazine calling Sway in the morning to say TPAB better be #1 on every end year list because it's the most ambitious album of the year, musically. -is probably one of the most respected rap albums by modern jazz musicians. -is Barack Obama favorite album of 2015 #Legendary Kendrick Wamar the president of the new school...So many W's he can start donating em to less fortunate rappers "Tell me who the b---- n----- hating on me Jumping on my d-ck but this d-ck ain't free To p---- A Butterfly another classic CD"
Jan 24, 2016 he's pretty much the only newschool artist with 2 classic albums so they're definitely coming for his head
Jan 24, 2016 oh and btw tpab is a much more complete record than gkmc. It's pretty close between tpab & section 80 though
Jan 24, 2016 Well i don't really give a f--- whether an album i like gets a lot of praise or not i'll just rather hold onto my own opinions
Jan 24, 2016 Relapse completely s----s on tpab I don't fall asleep during it either, so that's a bonus Why do all Kendrick stans randomly mention Drake
Jan 24, 2016 I think its definitely the best or one of the best albums (any genre ofc) of this decade but I don't now about top 10 all time. There's other albums that I enjoy more but I wouldn't be mad if tpab was on a top 10/20 albums lists... the quality is there, the album is deffo good enough to justify such a high ranking
Jan 24, 2016 nahh... objectively it's not even close lol. tpab is a 9+ album relapse is a solid 7 I love relapse a lot though, I just feel like we need to have some perspective here.
