    I can usually separate art from a person’s s-----y behavior and beliefs but Kanye praising Hitler is just too much. What the f--- is going through his head??? He has been pushing it and pushing it the past few years but now he’s lost me. He supported Trump but seemed like he was doing it to be trendy and didn’t give reasons why he supported him. I gave him a pass with that s---. I’ve always thought he was a self centered a------ but he was making good music.

    This anti-Semitic s--- he’s been saying is hideous and now he’s praising Hitler? I can’t listen to his music the same anymore. He’s done.

    It really is an incredible run. Since 2020 he’s on fire just like he said on KD3. Hoping for Magic 2!

    On Apple Music, Cole has two songs (No Role Modelz and Power Trip) on the “Top Songs of 2022: Global” playlist. That’s dope. Both songs almost a decade old and still as popular as ever. Cole making timeless classics

    Do y’all think Cole can do another Europe arena tour without it being connected to a festival?

    100% yes he’s one of the biggest artists in the world. Offseason is his best rapping on an album. Would like to see hits like Middle Child, Can’t Get Enough, Work Out and Wet Dreamz on his next album. Offseason didn’t have those types of hits and he still sold out arenas in the US

    So many albums better than Mr. Morale this year. KD3, Melt My Eyez, The Forever Story, Soul Sold Separately, It’s Almost Dry, Cheat Codes and Drill Music In Zion all come to mind….

    Just because it’s Kendrick the critics cream themselves

    Rich spirit
    Count me out

    only songs I still play

    I respect some of the concepts but don’t wanna hear the songs. I can only take his voice and antics in small doses. The “take it off” part is cringe on N95, push these off me like “huh” is cringe as well. But critics eat it up. He has to add that extra s--- in and it’s annoying.

    Agreed, I was actually suprised when Kendrick didn't make my Spotify top 5 this year with an album this year but i guess i didnt come back to the album much at all

    I forgot about Die Hard. I like that one, too

    3 out of 19 songs. No unnecessary cringe voices and try hard bells and whistles on those songs. Melodic and dope flows…he can do it but forces the weird unnecessary s--- most of the time. It’s good to experiment but when he does it I cringe

    I like most of section 80, all of good kid, some of TPAB, some of d---, not much of morale. Guy has slipped quite a bit

    I notice, I like hood s---, like g s---, mixed with like conscious/introspective s---. Type of rap I gravitate to. My fav rappers are Nas Pac and Cole… they can give you conscious s--- and talk their s--- lol.
