    Too many sing-songy tracks for me. I need a week of listens to make my mind but it is on the negative side for now. Tracks that stood out are: United in Giref, N95, Worldwide Steppers, Father Time, Rich Spirit, We Cry Together, Count on Me, Savior. Basically all the tracks where he raps, or kind of sing-raps.
    And I feel like the creativity/message/length is overtaking music enjoyment in general. Not sure this would have as replay-value as his other ones.
    Then again, will see in a week.

    Greatest album of all time, maybe better than revival. Crazy that he copied Tech N9ne on Worldwide Choppers. I am pretty sure that name is trademarked, if I were Tech I would be pissed.

    Love that Kodak is a r--ist and is all over this album. Good on Kendrick for giving him a second chance career.

    Can’t lie I’m so disappointed with this album on first listen. Hoping a few more listens changes my mind.

    Feels like it’s really lacking replay value and a lot of the songs sound similar to me. Father Time was the only song where I felt like I was listening to Kendrick and I know styles changes especially over a long period of time but this just isn’t it for me.

    Only listened up to "count me out" on my way to work.
    There are some i like, some i dont really like "We Cry together" stood out the most but thats probably because of the goat alechemist.
    At some parts i had some d--- vibes
    On some songs i was like "please kendrick, do something great".
    Will listen to the rest of the songs on my way home

    i can picture Eminem listening We Cry Together thinking that is the best song of the year and top 10 on hip hop history.

    Not sure how I feel about this album, like I was waiting to climax and it never happened. Maybe I’ll give it a few more spins. [​IMG]
