100Honestly outside the ic I really don't see anybody caping for tpab. The album was meh and I think most people think it was meh. But the issue is that ppl feel forced to like it because it's so pro black.

Stop lying ? Some ppl loved it and some ppl didn't end of story smh

I went back and listened to the album a couple weeks ago to see if the "hype/ anticipation" influenced my enjoyment of the album, and I still think it's an incredible album. Idk how you can listen to alright, these walls, how much, Wesley's theory, YOU AINT GOTTA LIE TO KICK IT? and say the album was meh.
-
It was a decent album. It's not something I'm checking for like that, not because it was super Black, but because it just wasn't that dope to me.
-
Lmao @ the album being too black. ? u in hiphop..

It's literally the most critically acclaimed hip hop album of all time. It's one of only two albums to go platinum this year. IN the real world Kendrick is damn near Stevie wonder at this point. -
LOL @ the eminem poster in the complex office
-
Album was ok/ good..but not great
-
I didnt love TPAB. Not because it was too pro black, but it was a bit too much on the experimental side. Not enough rapping for me.
-
white people love the ? out of Yeezus and while it has its moments (Blood On The Leaves) and i can understand some of the argument (obviously, you want musicians to be experimental, etc) ... i will never understand the level of devotion people lavish on it.Well they predominantly white and said that Yeezus was a classic-
also, GKMC != the Heist. that's appalling.
anyway, TPAB is a really good album that doesn't have the stand-out high points that GKMC did and that's that. apologies to the white folks who are freaked out by the overwhelming blackness. -

It has the highest metacritic score for a hip hop album ever. And if it isn't platinum yet it's close and it will get there after it's nominated for 500 grammys. -

This means nothing. You're saying its more acclaimed then alot of very important albums. Stop it. -

Nobody is forcing anybody to like this album.
People might force themselves to say its "AOTY" or a "classic" because other over zealous Kdot fans announced it off first listen.
Thats how interpreted his statement anyhow. It's what I label "unconscience dishonesty" when you make your opinion fit to what you think is the general or most popular consensus instead of how you truly feel. Other people may term it as "dickriding". -

He didn't and still don't know what the ? he talking about because Be is a masterpiece. -
It was a good album..but not the untouchable universal classic everybody was ranting about..Its sad how group stannery has taken peoples ability to objectively judge a album on their own merit...Its ok to not follow the crowd and think for yourself
Eye overstood what Kendrick was trying to deliver with TPAB but his execution didn't quite connect..He was trying to do what outkast did and be experimental..However,outkast had that special blend of entertainment,edutainment,and sonic bliss to the ears...TPAB's sounds left something to be desired
He gets props for being different but that's where the props stop for me..
Public enemy did what he did 10x better... -
Knew this would stir the reason ? feathers. Hahahhaha

This puffy cracka just said, not enough rapping on a Kendrick Lamar album???Lou_Cypher wrote: »I didnt love TPAB. Not because it was too pro black, but it was a bit too much on the experimental side. Not enough rapping for me.
What's next?
Not enough dancing in a micheal jackson video?
Not enough scoring in a mike jordan game?
The ? ? -
I still have not gotten into that album. If the production on a album doesn't hit it's not gonna have replay value to me.

It was trash tho
