Aug 17, 2015 I've been thinking about these two projects a lot lately. I want to get the overall consensus of what the S80 community prefers. These two tapes are the most underrated tapes in Kendrick's surprisingly extensive discography. I've always felt that the Kendrick Lamar EP was his most underrated tape (C4 is a good tape with quality gems on such as G Code in which Kendrick goes over the Kanye produced Let the Beat Build, a song that is a staple in Kendrick's discography not so much lyrically but because of his sound and to mesh with the style of Kanye West) In any event i've been comparing The Kendrick Lamar EP and OD to see which is the better project. I think OD has better highs as well as one of if not Kendrick's most underrated songs that being Opposites Attract; just a 10/10 flawless track from Kendrick. Both tapes offer classic tracks like the one I just mentioned above and extremely solid and cohesive tracks overall creating some of the most underrated tapes in rap overall. So I ask which tape is better not what you as a music listener prefer? @KendrickSXN one of the best instrumentals Kendrick ever used everything Kendrick is in one classic track What else needs to be said... Kendrick at his finest I can argue this everyday to be a top 10 if not top 5 Kendrick song... That beat and story telling perfect down to the f---ing period
Aug 17, 2015 @Tha_Goat It's cool that you mentioned Opposites Attract and Heaven & h---, I've been listening to those tracks a lot lately and yeah, they're two of my favorite Kendrick tracks Gotta listen to The Kendrick Lamar EP again in order to properly compare those two albums/mixtapes. What I can say until then is that O.D. seems to be a really underrated album: You can listen to from the beginning until the end without skipping a single track. Another awesome track from the EP: Until I gave the EP another listen, it's OD > EP for now to answer your question @Tha_Goat :mfsmile: Let's see what it'll be like after re-listening it
Aug 17, 2015 Really good thread, but OD had 'opposites attract' which is better than any track on KLEP, so OD for me Also P&P 1.5 > P&P......
Aug 17, 2015 I think EP may be more cohesive with its tracks being stronger than those on OD. But OD's highs are just so f---ing good they cant be touched. to the tracks on the EP. Interested to see how the poll turns out.
Aug 17, 2015 I'm trying to get more into the posting game lol. I was a member back on SL and had a really good few solid months of being extremely active than when SL got terminated may it R.I.P. and S80 was created I was very active in posting. I was very busy last week so i wasnt active. You'll be seeing me post I can assure you. I try to expand my post game into TV/Movies as well as sports but i usually just find myself in the music forums because this is truly the only corner of the internet/world where you can have some intelligent conversation about music. Thanks for the love though man appreciate it
Aug 17, 2015 Both great projects, Kendrick's catalogue is so strong. It has to be Overly Dedicated, its scattered with amazing songs. The Heart pt 2, Poe Mans Dreams, Michael Jordan, Ignorance Is Bliss, Growing Apart, Average Joe, ROTC, Average Joe, Heaven & h---.. wtf. I still b--- these songs on the regular today. The EP is so sick too.
Aug 17, 2015 I love kendrick and is my favourite artist, but I never have heard his ep as a full listen. I'll listen to it whole then decide
