Mar 14, 2019 It's officially been 4 years since Kendrick's best album, and one of the greatest albums ever, TO p---- A BUTTERFLY was released. This s--- changed my life, y'all. As a minority dude who felt small and inadequate in the face of the racism and adversity I saw on the news, in society, and personally saw all the time, To p---- A Butterfly's message of loving yourself in the face of all that really resonated with me. Aside from that, what do you guys think about the album and its message now vs at the time of release? (if y'all don't remember, this album was released when BLM was having massive protests, etc, and the Ferguson shooting/trial, as well as many others like it, were happening at the same time) Is the message the album conveys still wholly relevant four years later? How does TPAB stack up against the rest of Kendrick's albums? Wesley's Theory vs u vs Blacker the Berry?
Mar 14, 2019 I still bump it from time to time, one of the most important rap albums of 2010s, probably...
Mar 18, 2019 I wanted to like it, and I appreciate its significance, but outside of a couple songs the music itself doesn't really do anything for me. Revolutionary art for people who've never heard an Outkast or Tribe album.
Apr 18, 2019 Never really liked that album. I can see the hard work he put into it and respect it. And respect the art. But the jazz influence just wasn't my thing. Probably my least faortite kendrick albu tbh. But that's one reason I like Kendrick you can put 3-4 Kendrick fans in one room and they all have a different favorite album. Someone could hold a argument that section 80 is his best someone else can hold a argument that GKMC was his best or d---. It's great
