    That was from an interview he did during the d--- era that was getting replayed, he said he had hundreds of songs but the hard drive it was on broke and it was from super early in his career so the songs probably wouldn't be great anyways.

    Btw. The way Em tagged dre randomly in his tweet is what i do with @DKC where i randomly tag him so when he likes my post he adds credibility even when he disagrees cuz he feels he must due to my tag

    wanted to clarify it cuz i see tons of ppl in reddit laughing at em for tagging dre. Very well done strategic move by Marshall

    Right now the only song I don't really feel is Purple Heart.
    Overall, after barely five days, I think this is one of his best projects and he really gave his all to make it personal and introspective. The structure built like a long therapy is really well developed and was a nice touch that wrapped up together the project and made it work.

    My only complain is the absence of Kendrick before and after the release. Interviews or a doc or whatever would have brought a cool insight in his mindset while putting this album together.
    Guess he decided to let the music do the talking

    Purple hearts is the only trash song here. But I do like the first part done by Kendrick himself. The rest of the track is garbage.

    I don’t think he did that with d--- either sadly. Prophets don’t have time for interviews

    Would it also be a bad take if I said I thought Mother I Sober is the best song on the project?

    this is the main song where half the people think it's ultra offensive and the other half think it's some woke anthem even tho woke people hate it lol. while the people who like it think it's this huge triumph for trans visibility and trans rights. I don't think it's any of those things outright. I think it's just a Macklemore song aka probably well intentioned but mostly just sucks.
