Jun 8, 2024 I was revisiting this one tonight and it gets better with every listen, plus it has a lot of quotes that are simple yet powerful "Shut the f--- up when love is talking" "This is me and I'm blessed" "What's your life like? bs and gossip"
Jun 8, 2024 Easily one of the worst albums of all time. JP was right when he said Revival >>>> Mr Morale
Jun 8, 2024 By Kenny's standards this was a 7/10 album. Haven't listened to it for a while but my favs were Count Me Out Rich Spirit Die Hard N95 Father Time Purple Hearts Disc 2 was a bit of a mess though. Crown is one of the worst songs he's ever released.
Jun 8, 2024 I somewhat agree, the best s--- is on disc 1 and you gotta be in a certain mood in order to have patience for almost everything after "count me out", but if you are in that mood it's very satisfying save 1 or 2 skips for me (agree about crown, not a big fan)
Jun 8, 2024 we ain't know no better. y'know what btw? We Cry Together grew on me, not that I wouldn't skip it if it came on shuffle (wasn't made for that anyway) but now I feel like it adds to the whole s--- if you play the whole project
Jun 8, 2024 I have a weird relationship with this project in general, a couple of weeks ago I started to definitely click with it and what it was trying to do, especially with HOW it does it (main problem for me on first listens in 2022) there are songs that I always like which are the standouts (N95, rich spirit, count me out, father time) but there are others that I hate sometimes and sometimes I really really like, especially on disc 2, I loved Mr. Morale last night while listening to it and that used to be an instant skip for me the first couple of listens I gave it when it came out to sum up all this bs, I'm glad I gave it a lot of chances otherwise I would've missed some good introspective s---, even if I'm not on Kendrick's position or have anything close to Kendrick's life, I sometimes felt a mirror being held up at me lol
Jun 8, 2024 agreed. Count Me Out is one of my favorite Kendrick tracks and this album had some really good songs but overall was average
