    Agreed. I have listened to this album before and I think it was good and interesting, especially that final track with the 2Pac interview. I really liked King Kunta, it's really catchy and is still in my head even though I haven't heard it a while. The album is great, maybe not top 10 great, but still a great album and definitely top 30 of best rap albums of all time.

    it doesn't lack in replay value because replay value is subjective, it depends on what YOU enjoy on a personal level. As far as I'm concern, this is one of the albums I have replayed the most these past few years.

    Well it for sure depends on the mood. If i'm at home with soup and netflix, nothing is better then blasting "Momma". But if i'm with my homies in the car, its not gonna be the same.

    Top 15 album of all time in my book. If anything, he owes the musical brilliance to his team they're the ones who worked alongside him to bring about TPAB but it is how it is, the way kendrick put everything together still blowing me mind to this day.

    I definitely wouldn't compare it to black star or illmatic aka my favorite albums of all time, but putting all bias aside, this album can stand strong against a lot of great classic albums

    Quality wise its definitely not overrated, it is near flawless.

    Its just not a mainstream/accessible record for the new generation.

    gkmc sucks imo, tpab is like perfect to me.

    what about section 80? I can understand if you don't like gkmc but s80 has a pretty similar sound compared to tpab

    s80 is too basic musically, nah I'm sorry but tpab really is the only kendrick album I like, s--- is beautiful. But there's nothing to do, all his other projects ain't doing it for me.
