    Now before yall talk about critical acclaim (only comes from cacs) + the "increasing" popularity cornrow kenny has achieved over the years, I gotta say I'm only talking about QUALITY.

    GKMC is Kendrick's best album and most will say he had the GOAT 2 year run from Section 80-GKMC. Afterwards, man fell into a coma and took 3 years to drop TPAB. Nice album, but it hasn't stood ahead of its time compared to GKMC, which still gets tons of streams even though it's over 5 years old.

    A lot of people were content with d---, but ever since Melon's review of giving it a 7, people stopped treating Kendrick like a GOD. It's not bad by any measures, but I've seen a lot of people say this is his worst album, which is not a surprise since he went for such a mainstream direction. Can we expect Kendrick to continue to make radio music? And if it does, will his music quality continue to decrease? Personally, I have hope in him bc he's one of my favorite NS rappers, but I want to know your guys' opinions.

    This man is 2 months away from being the third hip hop artist ever to win AOTY at the pasty white Grammy's, and you wanna try and make a post about Kendrick needing to "recover"???

    Winning the biggest award as a black artist at an awards show who has been notoriously biased towards white artists white nowhere near the same amount of talent is HUGE.

    Tribe was never going to win and you know that. Stop trying okay the quality card ya wanker.

    Well a lot of Em fans call relapse a classic but I think it's just the stans and those dudes barely listen to rap. It's really Kendrick fans

    Can someone rate TPAB compared to the obvious 10/10 that GKMC is ? I listened to half a track of TPAB and thought it was so bad that I didnt listen to anything else.

    Views made dancehall popular in rap. It sold 1 million first week and is a commercial classic. Still heavily streamed after a year later. The people f--- with it.

    I can't make anything for More Life though, it was just average.
