    not sure how your posts make sense to anyone other than you

    ok let me try it


    you will NEVER in my LIFE find me saying New Slaves is better han BTB


    just the thought of listening to NS over BTB makes me laugh. Again, not a slight on NS but BTB is f--king fantastic m8

    Nope lol Kanye's a dumb f--- and what he says out side of his music doesn't effect me.

    Verse 2 IS amazing though.

    And Kanye's song is good for all the reasons people are saying Kendrick's song is good - but they have a bias that makes them disregarded Ye

    I, on the other hand, am HUGE fans of both and can see things more clearly.


    Like, anyone disregarding New Slaves but bumping this is an absolute joke in my eyes.

    I agree, kendricks fillers are fantastic, its just that his non-fillers are even better!

    How does this not make sense?

    Both are good, one is clearly better.

    Is that simple enough for you?

    not sure how much of a "single" it really is. not to mention it's not the full version of the song either.

    d--- it's not the full version? Didn't know that.

    I'm sure this album's gonna be great man, I just can't wait for it to all be out so I don't have to sit here and explain my gut reaction to single tracks (that aren't even the full version)

    Personally I really like the build-up until the end of his 3rd verse: starting his previous verses he claims to be the biggest hypocrite, mentions some cliches and then flips them. A good way to say that it's not only white vs black or black vs black, generally it's not about one race vs the other. The music is very good, and his delivery reminded me of parts of the 3rd Heart. The simplicity pretty much ends when he's rapping the 2nd verse I think. Some lines like the aryan heart one are great. This song feels like the opposite of i, which I think I prefer rn because it's more chill. BTB is better though.

    I love how pitchfork started the review with the same line I posted in the first page, which stood out to me from the start. I feel special.

    Good luck defending the chorus boss. The verses are good though.
