    ...but I'll never understand the GKMC hate.

    I feel like TPAB really separated people.

    What I mean is people who love content, jazz s---, different sounds, etc. love this album. Critics love this album. It's a well put together album.

    However, a lot of casual listeners have given it negative feedback. One could even say that TPAB alienated a good chunk of his fans. After waiting 2 years, Kendrick puts this out and it isn't at all what fans were hoping for. The mainstream audience praised him way more for his Bad Blood verses than anything on TPAB.

    So, was it really a W for Kendrick, or will it kick him in the a--- if he continues to go down this artsy route?
