May 28, 2015 dark fantasy college dropout yeezus and 808s in either order late registration graduation why do you think late registration is better than college dropout?
May 28, 2015 TPAB can be considered a disappointment in a sense because we expected improvement from GKMC, and he went in a direction nobody was expecting with TPAB. However, it wasn't completely flawed like some of you have said. I see too many opinions on this site where an album a classic, and if it's not its just kind of cast off as sub par. TPAB has flaws, but as a whole it grades out as a really good album.
May 28, 2015 gone edit: okay a single song cant make the entire album better but my top 3 reasons are 1) gone 2) gone 3) gone

May 28, 2015 will honestly re-evaluate LR/TCD tho i just know I like more tracks off the former, but TCD may very well be the better album. havent done front to back listens of both in a minute

May 28, 2015 @Narsh in all seriousness, i think that you're jumping through hoops to give weight to things that are pretty obviously failures (the interview is a good case study). you can think an album is good, great, classic, near-classic, whatever without endorsing all parts of it. you keep talking about me trying to make things fit a certain narrative, but that's actually something you have to divorce yourself from--the interview is horseshit, but that doesn't necessarily sink the album. i just keep coming back to it because it's emblematic of most of its larger problems.
May 28, 2015 i like TPAB, but i don't like kendrick jerking off his own ego and wasting 5 minutes of an album explaining why his album is so deep and poetic, and pretending to be homies with a dead man who has nothing in common with him
May 28, 2015 i think the album has great moments but it's just his worst album. I wouldn't qualify it as a stain on his catalog but I hope that he does better next time. What worries me is that if the whole world d-ck-rides him, he will think that he is going to the right direction.
May 28, 2015 Everybody thought the same about GKMC and he delivered a completely different album so you shouldn't worry
