    Not sure if this was posted before but, Kyle Kramer of Noisey believes TPAB is a classic album. This was posted right after the album dropped.




    If you read, do you agree with him? Why or Why not?

    partly.. i think Yeezus does a much better job in finding the middle ground and uniting many Americans in their dreams and sorrows.

    But it's a great sound from beginning to end. No lie.

    TPAB COULD be a classic, but very, very few times has an album been an "Instant Classic". TPAB is not a classic for now, it just was a really really good project. We need to let it sit for a few years and see if our opinions change. Good or Bad.

    I agree with Narsh. Granted, I have my own opinion on it being a fantastic project, but classic is a term to loosely thrown around these days...

    "Everything here is straightforwardly human, self-evidently black, implicitly American, transparently important, inevitably imperfect, and reassuringly, critically, meant to be felt."

    lol

    People fell in love with what kendrick tried to do more than what actually came from his efforts

    needs time
    it was obviously mean't to be a deep, thought provoking project. But some people made it seem like the bible or something...

    or ignored the quality of the music itself. or if he executed those themes to a praise-worthy level
