    I listened to The Love Below for the first time in a while and what caught me off listening was how much Kendrick "studied" this album.

    I honestly don't think you're really listening bruh. He does not beat his own personal situation to death at all
    Dude is just talking about the issues everybody (!) Should be able to relate to

    @Nav Bhatia I'll elaborate. Logic used to rap about black/white on his mixtapes. Some of his best tracks on there. First 2 albums he barely touched it because he felt uncomfortable. Cole is telling him to get over that fear and tell his story

    I've been watching LeBron play since he came into the league. I've never seen him toying with the competition like he's doing right now. All these three balls after rolling the ball in his hands, alley oops of the glass, attempting drinking a beer and left handed floaters tonight. It's unbelievable to watch. He mastered the game of basketball, this is some godlike s---.

    When the threes and jumpers are falling he is flawless. No one cant stop him right now. Cavs are winning if he can hit shots. I said it in the xmas game against GSW after seeing 2 threes go in. But this playoffs is some next level s---. :wow5:

    PJ Tucker aka The LeBron Stopper has been pretty efficient so far. Limiting him to only 37 ppg on 60% fg and 54% 3 ball. Great acquisition by the Raptors.

    And Ibaka the Shotblocka also limiting Cavs to 50% from the field. Oh and Cavs shot only like 45% from the three. Great small ball defensive lineup from the baby Raps.

    He won Cleveland a championship last season. This is the most relaxed I've seen LeBron since coming into the league. Scary. And he's getting better.

    Just now hearing this Cole verse. s--- dope af, but give me f---ing HQ of this s---, not this phone recording. I mean I get the concept, but why I would listen to this more than few times ever again. Giving me flashbacks of Temptation and Shock The World.

    Let me tell y'all about something that's really getting on my nerves. I hate this cinematic-orchestral trend that's been going on for a while on albums that was set by GKMC and MBDTF. s--- got to a point that when anytime I listen to a project from semi-big or bigger artist, with budget and resources, I swear I hear strings, violins every second track at the end or at beat breakdowns. It got to a point where it's so f---ing overused that people approach the album like "yea, let's give this whole project expensiveness by adding orchestral and cinematic s--- whnever possible just to add something to the track". Like, s--- is so f---ing pointless bro, it adds absolutely nothing to the track if you don't use and do it right, with a purpose. Be f---ing creative, don't follow. Second part of Logic album is unlistanable to me bro, production is f---ing trash, generic af with those love ballads-pop influenced chords and melodies. Man, I'm so disappointed.

    TBH the only songs that are depressing on 4YEO is Change and 4YEO. Everything else is pretty up beat.

    I choose to ignore She's Mine part one and two and Ville Mentality because I didn't like them lol. Change is depressing at the end of it I should say.
