Alright 10/10

 

Mar 17, 2015

yes..? seriously..

love the energy and almost chaos the song seems to have in between the hoodrat b---- talking at the beginning and the end and the intense wordplay and delivery kendrick brings on his spoken word (or whatever you wanna call it) verse

also, the "this d-ck ain't free" isn't done in an awkward way like you previously suggested imo..

you remember that song buy the world by kendrick and mike will made it? it dropped like last year and kendrick had that in his verse..now THATS an example of misusing that phrase

edit:

it's great man.

need to sit down one day and follow through the album on rap genius cause as someone said, after 100 listens, it's like you've only scratched the surface.

album is like a bank. we already robbed all the tellers but the real money is in the safe in the back and we still tryna unlock that s---

8.5/10 for me so far.

I think Production on some tracks could be better.

My expectations were pre-set before the release knowing it would be a complete shift from the GKMC sound, and even then I was still unprepared for how this sounded. GKMC had ‘moments‘, they were tied together with the story but nonetheless, Section 80.. although independent at core had mainstream sensibilities in the structure of tracks, hook/beat wise, which made it pretty accessible.

TPAB feels scattered in comparison, the production almost sounds too fluid at times, going from track to track without prominent standouts. The way the message was eventually revealed after being cut off at the end of the tracks was a nice touch however. The wow moments were somewhat few and far between though, the first part of ‘U’ was chilling, Mortal Man is perfect in every way and the Pac interview was a great curtain closer tbf. There isn’t a bad track on here actually, only lesser tracks that don‘t carry the same punch, his other projects contain some hit or misses but that’s not an issue for TPAB.

You get the impression this album could have been performed in it’s entirely on the Colbert report, it’s so cohesive. I can see now why people are comparing it to Yeezus, as TPAB is as polarising, and forces you to have an opinion. It’s not whip music, barely feels like Hip Hop at times, which goes to show the range Kendrick has as an artist.

Lovin TPAB is complicated.

Hey man I somehow stumbled upon your album last week and it's great!

 

Mar 17, 2015

That sloppy

I'm not shocked that you liked the song, but 10/10? seems a bit exaggerative.

Personally I don't like his voice on the track period (not just the "d-ck ain't free" bit), he's using an inflection that's awkward as h---. Piano was dope tho.
