Jul 16, 2024 I like relapse, but this is definitely better. This is easily his best album since The Eminem Show. Only 2-3 Mid Songs, the rapping is precise and the writing is impeccable. The most cringe lines are literally on a skit, so I don’t know people take the very obvious “Cancel myself” theme and think the whole album is full of cringe. When it’s pretty much the opposite. Houdini is his best lead single in decades, and the Evil, Lucifer, Anti-Christ to fuel is lowkey one of the best song runs on his album ever
Jul 16, 2024 Em at 51 just made a project better than 75% of Kendricks discography if we are being serious
Jul 16, 2024 Album is still 8/10 btw. I will post my full review in the album of the week thread and this thread likely later this week like @Michael Myers did. Also looks like this thread is even more r-----ed since I left. I guess @Marsh is compensating for that by increasing his re-----tion as well, he doesn’t wanna be outshined.
Jul 16, 2024 Hahahahaha naahhhhh man, not even Em would agree. Chill. This album is dope and he has sick lines but he has lost the ability to know what a good song needs. Kendrick knows that in his core. This is why Em still end up with corny lines and some weird dynamic in his song. He isnt making any real impact, only on his fans with this one which is great. But in all honesty, there is just enough times you want to hear a Hailey, about ”Dont cancel me” and about why he is the goat. Just walk the talk instead. make impactful music, bring new things to the culture, give a voice to the ones you used to give a voice to, the misfits, the outsiders, the rebels, the loners. Give them fighting music, to retake their passion, to commit to society etc. Just not giving a f--- and being yourself. this album kind of does it but in a lil cringey way sometimes. But This is why its his best work in a decade. but its FAAAR from good kid mad city, d---, tpab… or even mr morales, kind of tied with mr morales maybe but morales wins in impact and being a voice for his people maturing
Jul 16, 2024 Evidence swept clean With extreme lengths and steps being took to suppress things (Why?) Try not to get seen With Ben Affleck, me, and Seth Green hangin' on to the left wing Of Jeffrey Epstein's jet screamin', "Hey, don't forget me" (Haha) Shady as Bill, takin' the pill and putting it in your soft drink (Ah) Something's off and I don't know what the cause be
Jul 16, 2024 It's basic customer satisfaction knowledge. You should get 8 or higher. But whatever, a 5 is bad however you put it. I wouldn't settle for a 5.
