Apr 24, 2017 also, d--- has this awful --- beat. I respect his raps on this but have to throw up everytime I hear that first half beats. I don't care that everybody likes that song
Apr 24, 2017 Best songs on the Album are DNA, Pride, Humble, top tier, Feel and Lust pretty good too, Element, Loyalty and Love are just Poppy songs and the rest are awful, --- worst song he's ever put on an album, The Duckworth story is so stupid, beat is terrible Blood his worst intro as well How people like God or Yah is beyond me
Apr 24, 2017 The first part of --- isn't very good but the beat change and end portion of it I love. Yah is meh and God is catchy to me so I enjoy. I have no idea how you can say the duckworth beat is terrible tho
Apr 24, 2017 U2 are scum especially Bono, I don't like Duckworth maybe terrible was too harsh but there's better beats wasted elsewhere on the album, point is it d--- ain't better than GKMC TPAB or Section 80, half the album is meh to trash
Apr 24, 2017 For some reason, I can't agree with you Koolo, even though I understand your points. It's like, GKMC is on a pedestal. I feel like we gon' have to wait a few months, maybe a year or two before we can really say that d--- is above it. It's possible, I said it before the album was released too. Either way, here's my list after about 20 listens. Ranked best to great. DNA (The beat, story around it and that f---ing switch, whew, GIMME SOME GANJA) 10 FEAR (I might be bias here because of the length of it and the amazing job Alchemist did) 10 DUCKWORTH (Top 3 Kendrick storytelling songs) 10 ELEMENT (b-----r, f---ing b-----r!) 10 FEEL (This song speaks to me on too many levels, so maybe that's why it's so up there) 9.8 LUST (Wake up in the morning thinking about money, kick your feet up. This line makes me rap the song every single f---ing time, it's hypnotic for some reason. Also, LEMME PUT THE HEAAAD IN!) 9.7 PRIDE (LOVE'S GONNA GET YOUUUUU KIIIIILED!) 9.5 --- (THE SIRENS, OH MAH GAWD, U2 did a nice job too.) 9.2 YAH (This that song that I like to listen when I'm too stoned to do anything else) 9.2 LOVE (Zacari killed it) 9 GOD (Great track, loved what Kendrick did on the hook, but it seems too short for some reason and I can't really get into the song as a whole, I feel like the verses should be longer or better) 8.7 HUMBLE (Only ranked this low because of how different it is to the rest of it, not that it's any less amazing, it just feels like it doesn't belong on this album, dunno why, it might be just me) 8.5 LOYALTY (For some reason I can't really get into this song, even though both artists did a very good job, maybe it will take time) 8.5 Not counting BLOOD 10 as it's an intro which is amazing too. Sets the tone perfectly. Overall rating after ~20 listens : 9.4
Apr 24, 2017 So far this album is aging like moldy cheese. No where EVEN close to the classic GKMC. Slightly better than TPAB doe.
Apr 24, 2017 I havent listened enough times to agree or disagree, but GKMC has a terrible ending with Real & Compton. d--- is definitely solid from start to finish with no bad ending. But are the highs on here better than the highs on GKMC? Not sure yet
Apr 24, 2017 nah the highs on GKMC are untouchable imo d--- fits into kendricks discog perfectly, don''t see why we have to compare everything so much
Apr 24, 2017 it's so subjective tho like GKMC means more to me because of the things i was going through at that time, kendrick will never beat it imo dosent take away from how much i like d--- tho, its brilliant
