doublename Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 This didn't do it for me on the first listen. The Heart Part 4 is better than anything here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keanu reeves Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 yeah this is actually pretty good. more of a proper followup to good kid. it helps to remember that kendrick was once a lil wayne fanboy making pretty horrendous mixtapes. he's like the radiohead of rap, pure force of will and the ability to recognize other people's good ideas has brought him critical success, but there's always going to be a try hard corny side to him.

BaggerMcGuirk Posted April 18, 2017 Share Posted April 18, 2017 Been listening to this. I suppose I respect it more than I like it? That kind of sums up my relationship with most of the Kendrick stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Music doesn't come from a vaccuum, and I cannot think of any geniuses who have their art just come naturally and effortlessly. That is a total falicy. And everyone has first works that are cringy! That's the way artistic development goes. We can see examples of each of these things in the growing pains of Afx and Pablo fucking Picasso. And yes, Radiohead. Did you really mean to invalidate Kendrick and also Radiohead's artistry or am I misunderstanding? Also I would love to hear who you think is better on the scene right now. I dont even know where to start with TPaB being cheesy... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silent Member Posted April 19, 2017 Author Share Posted April 19, 2017 It's a solid straight up no nonsense rap album guys, maybe he's trying to distance himself from his insufferable fanbase or something. I would if I was him. Then again, Ufucking2. Worst theory ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny O Flannagin Posted April 19, 2017 Share Posted April 19, 2017 I really dug this album but does anyone here actually like the beat for HUMBLE? It sounds like a work in progress or that piano track is a temp track for something being added later, idk the beat just sounds so corny Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joshuatxuk Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 ^ the whole album was made on an iphone which they seem to be framing in a "can you believe they made this on a iphone" gimmicky manner Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kennylogg Bubblebath Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 So what's the difference between this and every other trap album in the top 40 right now? There's clearly something I'm not picking up on. I liked TPAB and GKMC but this is doing absolutely nothing for me, sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 http://www.businessinsider.de/kendrick-lamar-damn-producer-steve-lacy-iphone-beats-garageband-2017-4 maybe only this track, but goddm.. also buy BEATS HEDPHON Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hma Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 very meh, miss old kendrick, my favorite era is pre-gkmc, people really shouldn`t give money to artists, that fucks them up, too much talking during interviews sucks them dry and there is nothing left to say or smth lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amen Warrior Posted April 20, 2017 Share Posted April 20, 2017 My gf wanted this (already a bad sign), downloaded it for her and saw that one of the tracks features U2. Lol. It's obviously shite. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
