    I enjoyed it a lot too but it was just not as good as TPAB, not even close to being close if we're being honest.

    it was worse, objectively.

    and please don't use that diverse sound argument, seems like you don't know what it is

    Adding objectively to your sentence doesn't mean you're actually being objective

    Album is dope but overly-dense and over complicates things to the point that the musical experience is not enjoyable for a significant chunk of the album.

    I'm not surprised critics are drawn to this album, but personally GKMC should be receiving this level of praise not TPAB imo.

    Happy for Kendrick though. As an artist he deserves a lot of credit for what he's done for the genre.

    Lol at this clown mentioning vince's album

    you can't compare an above average album like summertime06 to a masterpiece like TPAB

    its like these Eminem fans comparing Recovery to Illmatic, they think that because they like it then it makes it good

    I just said I enjoyed it more. I didn't say what album was better. Summertime 06 is my favorite project of this year.


    Stop playing


    This^ People just adding random words in their posts to sound clever :laff:
