    Anyone who thinks DAMN is better than TPAB lets me know they both don't really listen to the lyrics and they have a preference for production that lacks musicianship.

    Yeah, I have to agree. But people have short attention spans, so you have to take that into consideration. If it's something a stripper can't dance to - it's like a vampire getting exposed to sunlight. LOL!

    I've been listening to Damn for two weeks straight and it's a great album. For a while, I thought it was on the same level with the last project, but now I think TPAB is a little better - musically, lyrically and concept wise.

    Compton rhymer Kendrick Lamar is continuing to obliterate records with his latest studio release, DAMN.

    Billboard reports that for the week of May 6, songs on DAMN. have secured the #1 through #9 spots on the On-Demand Streaming Songs chart, making this latest feat from K-Dot the first ever in chart history.

    Billboard’s On-Demand Streaming Songs chart tracks on-demand domestic streams from streaming services including Spotify and Apple Music.

    DAMN. singles, “Humble.” and “DNA.” captured the top two spots, while “Element.,” “Loyalty.” and “Love.” round off the top five.


    Atlanta rapper Future captured the #10 spot on the On-Demand Streaming Songs chart with “Mask Off.”

    All 14 cuts from DAMN. hit the chart with “Duckworth.” closing in at #16.

    The record for the artist with the most top songs on the chart was previously held by Drake. The Canadian crooner/rapper managed to have eight songs in the top 10 on the chart earlier this month with his More Life playlist, and once last year.

    J. Cole also accomplished that same feat in December of last year upon the release of his 4 Your Eyez Only album.

    Since its release on April 14, DAMN. and other projects from K-Dot have had an impressive run on the charts. In addition to DAMN. serving as the highest-selling debut of 2017, all four studio albums from Kendrick charted on the Billboard 200 following the release of the LP.

    I don't know man, I think I like this album better than GKMC off the strength of its simplicity. It accomplishes many of the same themes in a more catchy and economic manner. Plus it's like he realized his word play will never be on the level with the greats so he just rides the beat without trying too hard on some rappity ? .

    Might just be me but this another beat produced by 9th Wonder that put me in the mind of DUCKWORTH. especially with all the beat changes.
