Jan 5, 2016 After GKMC, I never thought he could top it... and he did by a large margin. He really came through. TPAB is amazing, now the questions remains...can he top it? I think he can honestly. Kendrick has never let me down.
Jan 5, 2016 he can definitely top TPAB...Kendrick ages like fine wine...hes only going to get better as time progresses
Jan 5, 2016 Nop but thats what I said when gkmc came out and he topped it. I mean, I don't know which album I enjoy the most but when it comes to which one is better, there's no doubt that tpab takes it.
Jan 5, 2016 Objectively, No he can't. He can top it lyrically, but as a whole he can't top it. TPAB is just so much denser and, even though it doesn't follow a specific narrative in the same way that GKMC does, more focused than so many albums we have heard these past few years. In terms of production, I feel that TPAB is a major step forward. The composition is flawless and it was produced by some of the absolute best musicians in their own genres. Kamasi washington even said that his best work was on TPAB. It's crazy considering the fact that Kamasi has just dropped one of the most celebrated jazz albums in YEARS. So one thing is sure, musically and production wise, he's not gonna top it.
Jan 5, 2016 How would that be possible... it would have to be twice as good as gkmc in order to compete with tpab
Jan 5, 2016 Objectively? Impossible my friend Critically? Impossible, it's already the highest rap album of the past 15 years Subjectively? yes, it all depends on your personal tastes Commercially? it all depends if it's a mainstream album or not.
Jan 5, 2016 Good Luck with that. Very few rappers can drop a near flawless album, it doesn't have to be the one you like the most, but it will still be your best album. I can see Kendrick dropping a more accessible album but I don't see it being "better" than tpab. Who knows though, wait and see.
Jan 5, 2016 +1 His next album is definitely gonna be easier for the casual listeners but there's no way it can touch tpab's greatness.
Jan 5, 2016 I recently jumped onto the kendrick's bandwagon and one thing I noticed is that: - Section 80 is his best effort, lyrically. - TPAB is his best effort, musically (it's also the most ambitious album). - GKMC is his best effort, in terms of story telling. as far as I'm concerned, tpab = s80 > gkmc. It was a lil bit off topic but who cares
