Stop s***ting up the forum with meaningless threads about sales. No one cares except those losers in the sales thread itself.
if you sincerely believe that sales is correlated to quality you might need to go to a doctor to check for a mental disability.
kendrick dont hit the same since he flopped. cant listen to losers
rap is the new pop u aint check the receipts?
Rap is the new pop due to streams and sales, but it's still not a pop genre.
Drake is the embodiment of Pop. He literally makes music for everyone, hops on trends, and plays things very safe with his music to keep his mainstream audience.
Kendrick is not that at all
thats why you had people in the streets chanting TPAB songs
and the production credits aren't that different, this album in his entirety is just not as good or concise
TPAB dropped right before Freddie Gray's death and the Charleston shooting. A lot of the themes on that album coincided with the sentiments of the BLM movement, so of course it was going to resonate with a lot of people.
Mr. Morale is a different story. He isn't making music for people anymore, it's for himself. Plus, the album just came out not too long ago so I wouldn't dismiss it just yet
Go stream the album with a vpn u fake supporter
Thanks now you said that i will so the next week sales will be looking GODLY
all this discourse on sales and I’m surprised no one has mentioned the timing. we just had two mass shootings within the past 2 weeks. I think a lot of the public, myself included admittedly, just isn’t in the mood to vibe to a conscious album about trauma when the country is drowning in it right now
Pop rap fans who only listen to what’s on the hot 100 don’t understand that not every album is meant to played in every setting and mood.
It had a impact on the culture, but it's not a pop album
And Kendrick is not a pop artist. If he was, he would've went the Drake route and chase after trends to stay on top. But he doesn't.
Why do think there's memes about how you can't play Kendrick in the club?
thats debatable, alright, the original version of i, king kunta, were all huge on the radio
kendrick dont hit the same since he flopped. cant listen to losers
If kendricks a loser what that make you
Silent Hill
Die Hard
Purple Heart
N95
Rich Spirit
Can all be singles. General public just dont fw the album like that
the first 2 songs yes the other songs not really
purple hearts has a very soulful hip hop beat, n95 is a banger but not really something catered to the gp, rich spirit just sounds like some la s*** that i don't really think will click with pop ass niggas
Like this s*** kinda funny but at the same time its weird as f*** and a lame way to pass the time. Like none of us would ever talk about this s*** irl
I get ktt does it with every album drop I understand but damn it feels like I already know the talking points atp
or just continue this discussion in the 100 page thread lol but it’s not a big deal just interesting
Thanks now you said that i will so the next week sales will be looking GODLY

Kendrick version soon
If kendricks a loser what that make you
That poster religiously makes DJ Akademiks threads but he wanna call other people losers

They were huge due to fact that it's Kendrick, but it wasn't following the same sound as most mainstream rappers we're doing at the time besides Alright. That's about it.

Kendrick is not that at all
one could argue that DAMN is the hardest kendrick has ever pushed to make the most mainstream music!
if I recall that album is his most successful album too but he didn't sacrifice his personal integrity. It was still a well curated album!

You can argue that, but at the end of the day, Kendrick is his own artist and is on his own wave.
If he goes Pop, he'll do it. If he goes classic Hip-Hop, he'll do it. If he goes Soul/Funk, he'll do it.
He doesn't stay in a lane for his whole career.
