    I don't listen much, so there might be more, but Kendrick only got that Grammy for the creativity of the album. At least two better albums were out there :idk:.

    I know its cool to make bold statements on this forum, but Tpab is better than both combined.

    It might not be everyone's taste though, but quality wise tpab is much better than these albums lol

    Tpab was AOTY, so I have to disagree with this and tpab didn't only have that grammy for creativity. It was the album with the best music

    h--- no, Tpab is without a doubt one of the best albums in recent years, and I don't even enjoy it.

    Nothing wrong with enjoying an album more than To p---- A Butterfly but if we're talking about what album is better then it's Tpab and its not even close to being close.

    Both dsp & barter 6 sound elementary compared to TPAB.

    That might actually be Barter 6.


    On what basis, while it has impressive production and creative instrumentals, the rapping was a bit neglected for most of the album. And the album itself doesn't flow as good with all the interlude's. I can appreciate it alot as a work of art, but as a rap album, it kinda falls short.

    lol..it actually has to be enjoyed as a work of art, some of the rap songs aren't even rap, they're jazz influenced songs. Way too many people think jazz = instrumentals, it's false.

    Dark sky is trash and shouldn't be mentioned itt
    As for b6 vs tpab, they're both masterpieces that reward multiple listens. like any record with great music you find yourself gravitating to multiple parts of them, finding new things, etc. Really reminds me of my favorite albums in that sense. And rap wise they're both on point as usual. Just different music for different people, but they both excel in their own way.
