    Now, at first this song had a bland vibe to me, a sort of underwhelming dread, similar to the feeling songs like Babylon gave me. But this song, after multiple listens, has come to be one of Kendrick's best to me. The bridge Kendrick sings leading into SZA's Sia inspired vocals is blissful, the simple yet melancholic instrumental ranks among the best Kendrick has rapped over (anybody get 2008-2010 Kanye vibes from this production?), but ultimately this verse glues it all together. Kendrick's always had a way to spit nearly biblical passages through his verses, this is not an exception.The writing here makes Dylan look like Dr. Seuss.

    Seriously, if you didn't like it at first take another listen, it's amazing.

    10/10

    The verse didnt really relate to the hook but sonically the song is amazing
