Damn beat out Meek Mill album landing at #2. Meek sittin at #3 on the albums chart. Salute

 

[Karl.]

My favourite album of the year. I haven't really fucked with much else though.

That loyalty buzz

That loyalty buzz

That shyt should have been pushed harder out the gate. Loyalty was the obvious hit the first time I heard it.

 

[StoneColdMikey]

It peaked at 14 when the album came out. Now that they're pushing it as a single it's back at 31 but it will continue to rise

I remember that, but I kinda don't count it since the entire album charted due to the cheat code (including the intro). But damn, it's only at 31? I thought it'd be a bit higher that.

 

[StoneColdMikey]

The video was just released and its steady climbing . I can see it going around 14-15 again

 

[rip.dilla]

Probably conflicting schedules. Rihanna is another global superstar and I guess getting her to make that video would have been long...

I like the flow of singles he chose anyways...

 

[infamous114]

No switching sidesss, feel something wrong, you acting shifty, you don't ride with me no moooooree

Congrats

And keep in mind this had NO hype and no commercial sounding music. This was a conscious album. Now I don't want to hear anything about needing to rap a certain way to sell records.

And I think it's time we start seeing Kendrick as a major force in today's music. Not just for hip-hop but for music as a whole. Not even a month and he platinum what more can he say man what more must he prove ? Kendrick surpassed expectations.

You bugging yes it did

Seriously. How does one get more commercial than Loyalty?

 

[Shizlansky]

Best album in the last 5 years

 

[Ghostdenithegawd]

Chunky riri stole my soul

Chunky riri stole my soul

Right. I think she' even more smash-worthy now and she was already infinitely smash-worthy

Lol Dot look shocked as fuck. Like that nigga was in the middle of saying "damn." Hopefully they fixed the problem of some of the skits being missing from the original physical release.

Anyone else think the album actually does sound better with the tracklist in reverse? Give it a go if you haven't tried it yet.

 

[rip.dilla]

Bruh niggas including me thought there was a concept in listening, the OG from back to front

And now we've been vindicated by Dot himself!

 

[i ro ny]

Lupe did it first.

On the lowest of keys, Lupe has a right to feel exactly the way he does.
