    Both post beef albums, which do you prefer?

    As a non Kendrick fan I really liked GNX (mostly because of the production ngl) and Iceman was way more interesting than I expected. Very difficult choice but atm going with Iceman. Maybe in the long run it can change though.

    I know one has been out for a week but usually these threads already start a day after so f--- it lmao lets go!

    GNX is definitely better imo but it still isn't great.

    Notice how J. Cole’s album isn’t included because it was a sleeping pill in music form:sad2:

    I think the albums are pretty close. GNX is an 8/10, Iceman is a 7/10

    This isn't really close to me, aside from the beef I just always greatly preferred the way Kendrick writes and flows over beats. GNX is even on the weaker side of his discography to me but I like the art rap s--- from him when he makes full albums more than the bops even if I think he's good at making both.

    Iceman was a decent effort from Drake but the sore loser whining for all the album mixed with weak bars and monotone flows to stink up the actual great stuff on the record dilutes it a bit too much throughout its bloated runtime.

    Iceman by far, Kedrick just had good beats to do weird voices over.

    Gonna go with GNX since I've had more time to sit with it, but this is closer than I thought it would be.
