Guest grue Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 wonderful album. better than section.80, which is saying something. there are a few dodgy bits here and there, but the high points are so good that it doesn't really matter. the concept is interesting as well and the way he executes it is even better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beerwolf Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 Well I spied the 5 star review on FACT and I checked a few tunes out. Ever the sceptic, but I'd admit each one seemed pretty fucking ace to me... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jules Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 I'm scared to check it out. the few bits I heard sounded like lil Wayne style rapping, if you can call whatever Wayne does as rapping Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Jimmy McMessageboard Posted October 26, 2012 Share Posted October 26, 2012 yeah lil wayne was my reference point too but i don't know shit about the rap game. i like lil wayne but don't usually like the production on his tracks. p.s drank Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest grue Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 i don't think lil wayne is a fair comparison at all, if you listen to what kendrick is saying throughout the album. there might be some superficial stylistic similarities, but substantively they couldn't be more different Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest grue Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 i don't really like the introduction on this one, but once you get to the main track (~1:07), both the production and the vocals are great. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4rxlRn_nub0 also the verses on this track are incredible. don't see much in common with lil wayne or whatever, but i guess i don't know lil wayne that well, so i could be wrong: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EAybf3yVyQw Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweepstakes Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 wow drank sucks, even if it's sarcastic, wich i hope I believe it is very much ironic, and it doesn't suck even a little bit. Fuckin awesome tune. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ivan Ooze Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 I got this album lol, i love it i was so wrong about this dude, i thought he was gonna be another one of those 13 in a dozen fakeass clown's Bitch don't kill my vibe The music/skits/beats are awesome and the shit he says is like the best spike lee movie He should have left Drake of it though, wtf man good kid, mad city Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sweepstakes Posted October 30, 2012 Share Posted October 30, 2012 Totally agree, Ivan. On first listen I was skeptical and it quickly became apparent that he is one of the most mature and versatile rappers around, especially for his age. "Drank" won't get outta my head, hits damn close to home and it's pretty much flawless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

beerwolf Posted November 5, 2012 Share Posted November 5, 2012 Gonna get this soon. I liked the few tracks I previewd and Ivan Ooze's enthusiasm has rubbed off on me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candiru Posted November 6, 2012 Share Posted November 6, 2012 I really checked this out today, and I have to say I think it's all that and a bag of tasty chips. Sing About Me, I'm Dying of Thirst is just Fucking Great Music™. Listen to it many times. Edit: This guy also has the same b-day as me, which I think is super cool.

Ivan Ooze Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 so good it deserves a bamp, kicked actress from the throne of album of the year for me and it's been since outkast stankonia since i was obsessed about a hip hop record Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sidewinder Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 I wasn't interested based on the clips I sampled, but when I heard the whole album it was interesting. I didn't like the talk about biches and money and some of the vocal stylings, it's a bit more mainstream than I usually like my hip-hop. But that was the first listen. After the second and third listen I found the album really good and realized he's not promoting biches and money but telling a story. It's good. I should probably go for a fourth listen soon.
