    So, it's still early days but now To p---- a Butterfly's been released where do you think Kendrick will go next?
    What do you want out of his next solo album and do you think he can get any better still?

    I didn't think he could top GKMC when it came out, but then he dropped TPAB.

    I'm excited for his next album... when he drops it in 2018.

    He'll probably just work on the next solo in the shadows and release it whenever. He doesn't seem like the rapper to drop every season, so I think it'll be a few years until we see another one from him again.

    The worry I have with him now is that it's going to be literally impossible to release a 3rd classic album in a row.
    How he'll keep it fresh, with new ideas and a distinct sound, without it being overly compared to GKMC or TPAB I will never know.
    But if he does do it I really do think he will be the greatest of all time.

    thank you Kendrick Lamar

    i NEVER thought i would stan for something this hard again...i remember when @Swizz said on SL that he remembers how much he used to be a marshall fan back in the day..and he will never feel as excited for new albums as he did in 2000

    i am SO EXCITED for the next kendrick album its silly

    and his new album will be amazing, why? because after he broke out with gkmc..he took TWO YEARS to release his new album...most n----s bank on that success and release an album fast..not kendrick..he chose quality over sales

    this type of n----- happen very rarely..you guys should be excited..we are witnessing greatness

    I remember back in the day I was a huge f---ing Kanye stan but for whatever reason and I can't remember when, all that stanliness went to Kendrick. I have no doubt in my mind he WILL be remembered as one of THE greatest when his career's over. The thing I hate about TPAB though is that I know it won't easily be topped and yet I'll be comparing every album I hear now to it. He kept his promise on control, he set the bar high, too f---ing high though. Also gonna be a painfully long wait for the next album and I don't want to know how I'll react if its disappointing lmao.

    He is definetley at his peak both musically and lyrically. The one thing I think that is guaranteed about his next album is that it will sound completely different than all 3 before it. The man is a creative genius and he has already secured his spot in hop hop lore.

    Now that the album is out I see him doing the collab album with J Cole...

    His next studio album I see releasing in late 2017 or early 2018...it's possible it could be a continuation of Section.80. That album is constructed in chapters so I can easily see him making songs about the missing chapters and elaborating on the meaning of HiiiPower.


    I am also excited for what the future brings. I have no doubt in my mind that Kendrick will go down as the greatest to ever do it. I always knew after GKMC, but the release of TPAB has just reinforced my confidence in him.

    Lol i'm gonna be more hype for his next album than the last two after seeing him top GKMC like that. But can he REALLY top it AGAIN?!

    I'm going to inject all my hype into this album while we have it here and we are in the moment NOW.

    I predict we won't get it for another 3 years at least. I have no idea what it'll sound like and, chances are, nor does anyone else m8.

    He should just do a mixtape where he can just rap without putting together a whole concept, more 16s and just spitting. The whole concept album thing is cool but these songs wont be getting played like S80 soon

    Not sure why everyone wants a Kdot Jcole collab album, that's a waste of Kendrick's talent. Both of them are 3 albums into their careers and it's been made obvious that Cole just simply cannot compare to Kendrick. No disrespect to Cole at all of course but that's just how it is.

    I find it similar to the Em-D12 situation. If DN never came out, we would've gotten a 4th classic
