    I think U is probably a better song than King Kunta, but the historical allusion and paradox of KK is pretty fantastic, and the vibe of the song is just infectious, so I have to vote U this round. Add me to the mentions btw.

    Our n----- Kendrick saying Momma's his favourite song off the album and y'all bumping it off on round 4 smh.
    Always said it was a jam, so underrated by y'all.

    Have to disagree with Kendrick tbh cuz Momma's prolly my least favorite non-interlude.

    Also Mortal Man better than institutionalized? f--- outta here.

    I'm voting out Mortal Man. Hope this comes down to Hood Politics and Wesley's Theory.

    I don't think it's a bad song...it just doesn't do much for me personally. I understand why it would be meaningful to Kendrick though.

    How Much a Dollar Cost probably the track that's grown the most on me. It only hit me recently how deep and dense the story telling is on it, the sort of writing that would take me about 5 years to write.

    Momma started to grow on me. The third verse and outro are the best part. Would be better with only two verses.

    Personally I care about the vibe of the song and the overall production first and foremost and then the actual rap and message second.

    Like the only reason people like Hot n----- is cause the production turns up so no one cares that the bars are s---. Good production can still make a good song out of a bad verse but terrible production over any verse no matter how good it is ruins the entire song.

    That's probably why I love Momma so much, the atmosphere it creates is just amazing.

    You said HMADC was too straight forward. TBTB is easily the most straightforward track on here. or maybe KK.
