That’s facts. Jay Z dropped his first five years. Lol.

OutKast went every two years. This is actually the longest and I truthfully we would have an album if it wasn’t for corona which is why I’m not too upset about the wait. But it’s def tough waiting.

1994 : Illmatic
1996 : It Was Written
1999 : I Am...

Check out Jay z. He was releasing every year 😂

Yea especially when it's pushed back for at least another year because of the rona situation. Imo 2 years is the perfect gap since it allows artists enough time to craft the album yet doesn't drag on the wait for too long

tbh when you think about it, kendrick dropped a lot of music last decade.

Overly Dedicated (2010)
Section.80 (2011)
Good Kid, M.A.A.D City (2012)
To Pimp a Butterfly (2015)
Untitled Unmastered (2016)
Damn (2017)
Black Panther (2018)

he was heavily involved in 7 projects, in a matter of 10 years...

Oh yea that’s a nice rate right there.

7 albums in ten years is great. And Kendrick Lamar ep was 2009.

Exactly. Not to mention he was also involved in the writing process of Compton.

And he helped write on Chasing Summer by SIR

If it's a Punch album

It's also worth to mention that while kendrick may not release as many projects as some other rappers who drop every 6 months, he still makes very long albums.

for the comparison, Views by Drake is a double album and is 81:14 minutes long (drake's scorpion is only 89 min long despite having 25 tracks..)

Tpab is 78:51 minutes long
gkmc, with only 12 tracks, was almost 70 min long

.

Even though the wait between DAMN and his upcoming album is very long, at least I'm glad he's not like Zay where we got 2 projects within 7 years

Man y'all are f***ing annoying
Kendrick's creative process isn't like most other artists, he can easily s*** out a new album every year if he was rapping about bullshit but every album is a life journey, he has to live life to get those ideas out, GKMC dropped only a year after S80 because that was an album about his life at a young age, he already knew what he was gonna rap about and what ideas he was gonna get out plus he was screaming Good Kid Mad City since 2007, TPAB was a life journey and it was ideas he had after he traveled around the world, same with DAMN
New album takes time but it's gonna be new topics and new s*** you don't hear everyday, just shut up and wait you f***ing idiots go listen to your flavor of the week if you aren't happy

calm down bro lol. You alright?? 😂

Man I was just remembering earlier today how TDE use to be so active when dropping s*** back in 2011-2013

I always wanted a full video for F*** A Hook

I wish I had this confidence!!! Oh wait, he’s talking about music nvm

😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣🤣

They really extended TDE appreciation week into another week just to drop a SiR video with Black Hippy bait, a Lance Skiiiwalker single, and a Punch single

that song still on heavy rotation

People are f***ing annoying lol
When artist rushes music just to sell records y'all complain
When artist takes time to craft the best possible music y'all complain

Kendrick never had an half-assed era, he puts 100% into everything from music to videos to live performances
I want new music just as everyone else but let the man do what he feels like doing, I'm sure he wants to release new music but not something he isn't 100% happy with, he doesn't make money not releasing music

I feel you bro but artist like Andre, D angelo been getting this treatment for years. As long as he doesn’t officially retire people are gonna anticipate him because he is the best. Comes with the territory.

He always spoke about wanting to have longevity similar to artists like Jay-Z, I don't think he's gonna retire anytime soon
His passion for music is too strong to just leave that s*** behind like it's nothing, maybe he will take more big breaks from music just like now but that's only for the sake of wanting to give fans inspired music that they can live with and not just something forced
