TPAB as the bottom Kendrick album

love how kendrick albums have drill 808s in some songs and then goes full jazz drums in the next song

oklama built different

Same guy whose been mixing hip hop releases since 05 or before

He mixed the last 2 pusha albums, some of the old Kanye stuff iirc, and I’m sure more if you dig into it

baby keem wrote die hard

Sounded like a monte influenced beat fs but I wouldn’t say they took his whole sound

N95 goes crazy wdym

Just listened to CLB

There’s a fringe of people who hear TPAB and feel it sounds contrived, like he was focused on trying to make a classic album, that it didn’t feel authentic . That it’s half a tribe called quest and half Outkast with a love letter to 2pac. I great concepts just not the execution.

Every reason I’ve heard why tpab is great is what I see in this new album so far and everyone who says it’s contrived and missed on the experimental mark is how I feel about tpab lol.

Mfs I went to school with saying how fire We Cry Together is song is good to me but I’m just surprised it’s what’s niggas gravitating towards lol

When you experiment with sounds you add it to your palette

Instead of dropping the same album for years

i'm sorry

I dont fw it

it's decent, but on par with the rest of the album

yeah Die Hard is the most accesible song on the project

The ancestors will watch me f*** for retaliation.

It’s produced by Sounwave and Boi1nda. Show me any of their beats that resemble this one more than any Monte beat. If you can’t I think that suffices as jacking

Yep

the Summer Walker and GFK features are random as f***

He mixed for so many pop artists and rappers, like everyone from Kanye to Cudi to Mac Miller to Future to Nas

Goes head to head with big steppers

Nah but I know for sure Kendrick wrote all of Keems s*** on the album

Interesting lolol it’s crazy cuz TPAB is my fave but I like this new one too but idek if I can directly compare the two yet

Man this first half of this album through me off until it picked back up around Rich Spirit then threw me right back off with We Cry Together then picked back up in the 2nd disc

Disc 2 is the better part of this album for sure

Kodak did his thing on here, especially with the interlude.

Some of the lyrics on here, might’ve been what Daylyt was talking about.

But overall for a 1st listen, this was a nice album, nothing too crazy.

Need we cry together to be the NBA playoffs official song

F*** YOU B****

trying to find replay value in this mf
