Kendrick Lamar Album Discussion 4-14-17

[rip.dilla]

He did use Drake's flow on a couple songs too

Which ones? I listened to the whole of More Life yesterday and DAMN. as well. No similar sounding songs or flow

 

[Stew]

I'll start off by saying I like the album but

This album is a step back Imo. With his previous joints he separated himself from his peers but not on this one.

It kinda feels like he made an album that would be mainstream, which I can't knock him for, but I just don't fuck with it like the other ones.

It sounds like he was listening to a lot of Drake while making this album too.

Duckworth is classic Kendrick tho

Anybody that likes "Love" better not be a Drake hater lol its the same damn kinda music he makes.

There is a big difference between one song on your album about Love vs 15 straight songs about simping and dwelling on ex girlfriends.

I ain't say nothin about his album sounding like that.

Yea but thats why i cant fuck with Drake. Drake makes the same fuckin song 100x over. I stopped really checkin for him after Take Care. You wont find me in his threads.

Just because he made 1 track called Love u cant say its a Drake track. Artists like Nas, UGK, & Devin the Dude have made tracks similar in style or topic. Drake didnt invent it... He just dont do shit else.

These niggas don't have auto-tuned sing-songy raps like Drake bruh, no.

Lol I knew this would touch a nerve when I brought it up.

LOVE isnt autotuned.... I dont think

Kendrick just got a weird voice

 

[BDBIID]

It has content that Drake would make a song about

Sonically it doesn't sound anything like a Drake song.

 

[Listencloser]

LA niggas are like NY niggas. They unite under LA til they get to issues with each other then its "You from Long Beach that ain't LA" just like NY niggas start separating shit by borroughs lol

Uh no. To DMX and the Lox

"You from Yonkers that ain't the City"

-no nigga ever

We'd claim Newark if we could.

So ya'll NY niggas don't start cracking jokes on each other based on whichever borough you're from? Wasn't it a NY nigga who came up with the "Manhattan keeps on making it, Brooklyn keeps on taking it ,Bronx keeps creating it, and Queens keeps on faking it"? Shit I know plenty people from the Bronx who tell niggas from Co-Op City "Nah you not from the Bronx. Co-Op ain't the Bronx"

You are conflating neighborhood love for the city overall. Niggas rep their hood from anywhere in the world but when it's time to represent for NYC niggas ain't gonna go "you are not from the 5 boroughs proper." Rakim is from Long Island.

Same reason Decatur, East Point, College Park niggas claim Atlanta.

 

[sapp08_2001]

Don't know if this was posted, but real tears

Lmao

 

[HafBayked]

Am I the only one who thinks Pride is one of the best songs on here?

Word to @HafBayked

shits beautiful cuh

 

[newOldSchool]

Nah. LOVE. sound nothing like Drake's music just because K. Dot sang on it... it's just a song that'll do well on the charts

LOYALTY. however is climbing up slowly on the charts I read

He been with that girl for 15+ years... she can get one song on his 4th album and it not be, "he trying to be like Drake."

It's not the amount of songs because nobody said he made a whole album like that, it's the song period. It's some Drakish shit. It's a good song, but it's still some shit Drake would make

Nigga you said exactly what I just said. NY niggas are all about NY...til it comes to individual boroughs then ya'll jokes come out about how "Queens niggas do this, BK niggas do that, Harlem niggas do this"...it ain't that deep bruh. Every city does it.

And this is what you call a misquote.

 

[StoneColdMikey]

Lmfao that's nothing like drake

How is it not?

Drake doesn't make love songs. 95% of his songs are shot him fuckkng up with a girl in the past and now that he's famous he wants her back . Kendrick isn't even singing on th track. Drake slow moody songs are superficial . This is a song about his fiancé .

 

[StoneColdMikey]

The first verse on God reminded me of drake and other rappers who think they're on top.

Well just narcissistic peope in general

 

[TheGOAT]

Can we all agree at least that

LOVE >>>>>> JColes Folding Clothes

 

[CottonCitySlim]

After a week I only listen to:

DNA

Element

Humble

Loyalty

Xxx

Duckworth

Skip the rest

 

[HafBayked]

thats the mood of the song tho...

this what GOD feel like

 

[StoneColdMikey]

thats the mood of the song tho...

this what GOD feel like

Yeah first verse but I like how Kendrick is role plays as god as the second verse

 

[Go figure]

Still bumpin thru the whole album 'cept Love

Humble still goes.
