    This is the song that got me into Kendrick, I don't think it gets enough love, although I've seen a decent amount of people here/sl give it the appreciation it deserves.

    Still a top 10 Kendrick song for me after all this time :jordan:

    Yea, classic, it was the perfect pre-Section 80 single.



    ^ Nice bit of undercover filming from the creative process of the track, gives you a good insight.

    Great song, probably the first Kendrick song that clicked with me. Every time hear it I'm transported back to Spring 2012 riding the bus to school with my headphones on. Nostalgia is strong on this song.

    I have a similar memory, but with f--- Your Ethnicity. I'll never forget sitting on the bus and hearing that song for the first time on the way to campus.
