    personally, everybody I know feel like its the greatest album ever made, and most of my friends and critics I know agree its miles ahead of everything he did in the past.

    tbh I have a few friends saying the same as some of these goat musicians, they admit the music isn't for them but they all say: "now, we know kendrick is that good, he can make these flawless albums"

    dude really won, he has all the accolades ,the acclaim, people who really love it and some people who don't enjoy that kind of music but still aknowledge that album as objectively amazing. :daps:

    There are literally hundreds of hip hop albums spanning several decades all better than TPAB

    And then there are, you know, other genres as well

    When the mainstream population hears Biggy or Tupac, what songs come to their mind? Hypnotize? California Love? Dear Mama? Juicy?
    When the mainstream population hears of Kendrick, they're going to think "Oh, he's on that Bad Blood remix! But I liked that swimming pools song, too. Didn't he do a thing with Imagine dragons on that one award show?" The majority of people (everyone, not isolating hip hop fans) don't give a d--- about TPAB.

    Can we all at least admit it was a mainstream L?

    I thought gkmc was amazing but I agree here, now I only expect kendrick to make masterpieces like tpab. I don't think I'll be a fan if he drops weaker albums like gkmc or s80.

    And you don't? I'll probably never listen to gkmc again. Every time I want to listen to it I'm like: "wait a minute, that new album is much better, why should I waste my time with this one"

    Booba (one of the biggest french rappers) is a big homie and called me when TPAB came out.. Then I saw The Verge and other reviews calling it the album of the century so I had to give it a listen.

    downloaded it, listened to it... INSTANT LOVE
