because, again, it's utter trash for people who haven't delved beyond stock standard rap

>>61833239

Pretty terrible album. If you've been following/listened to his mixtapes then it's generally the exact same formula and style as his last 3 or 4 tapes. I mean he works so much that his lines are literally the same shit over and over. I'd quote some now but I haven't listened to him since 1 or 2 years ago. Very, very average rapper, you gotta wonder why people put him and J cole in their top 5.

>>61833255
What non-Def Jux white rapper isn't?

>>61833179
HUH well downloaded it off datpiff as a mixtape if I recall
But I guess if not the warm up or friday night lights were good

Just the idea of this arouses me

>>61833179

Kendrick himself considers it a mixtape and even calls it a mixtape in interviews... I agree with you though.

>>61833289
would be a waste of kendrick's time

>>61833157

Mac's best tape IMO. Some cringy "LE DEEP" lines but generally gr8.

Pretty good one I stumbled on through spotify recently

>>61833176

Pete rock's "Petestrumentals" is decent. At least I think it's that album. It has "play dis at night" if that helps.

>>61833319
In what way? If its that j Cole is involved, he's produced over 70% of the music Kendricks ever made

>>61832626
This is the album that made me lose faith in music and question my personal definition of art.

Some of you guys are so harsh with some choices her but I respect the honest opinions.

>>61833289

Why is Cole doing this? It's career suicide. Kendrick is only doing this with him because he was a huge cole fan when he was on the come up. Cole is fucking trash.

>>61833346
Then post what you consider art?

FUCK. YES. This has been slept on. I'm itching for Blaqkout 2.


<<< That being said, this is my submission.

>>61833339

Come on, Cole is nowhere near Kendrick's level.

>"These niggaz think they the shit but I ain't even farted yet"

Damn...

Can't wait for all the J cole dickriders who love and praise him because he "speaks out". Lol, he's so boring.

What does everyone have against J Cole?

>>61833379
idk man
I don't think he's really lived up to the hype he's had around him since his mixtapes but he's still put out solid stuff.

>>61833372
probably won't ever happen unfortunately, last i heard it mentioned was like 2012

stranger things have happened though

>>61833375
Have you heard 2015 yet? Cringy lines are cringy but to hear an artist grow up is pretty great too

Forrest Hills was a return to form. I think there were some decent songs on there but he really isn't good. Just average.

>>61833409
I heard something last year. I can't say who or where I heard it, but I'm holding on to hope ha.

>>61833459
in that case i hope your mysterious sources are correct

Welcome to Sky Valley is better tbdesu

>>61833399
I enjoy his work honestly.

>>61833488
I wouldn't call it underrated. It seems like everyone who got into hip hop last week was spinning this.
I think he's overrated though.

>>61832658
>underrated

Critics and fans shit themselves over this album

It's overrated if anything 5/10 at best some of the hooks are awful

>>61833517
What's your ideal 10/10 rather than shit posting your unpopular opinion lol

>>61833517
no makeup's hook lmao

>>61833517
I second this. I could never understand what all the hype was about, and then I realised it was hyped up by girls and people who aren't familiar with hip hop.

>>61833556
that sums up TDE altogether

>>61833529
Honestly though I too wanna hear it since you wanna talk trash about everyone's top albums like my metalhead brother.

Dead thread is dead

>>61833562
No doubt, but as soon as he was signed to Aftermath the hype got blown out into the stratosphere

I bumped this today and honestly was going to come home from work and say it was underrated as fuck. Is this a classic yet? I think it's essential 2000s core hip hop.

>>61833797
I didn't listen to this mostly because the who Game/50/G-Unit era gave me a bad taste in my mouth. But I listened to Documentary 2.5 and loved that shit. I wish I wasn't such a shitty teen because I would have listened to this and probably loved it in retrospect.
I have no doubt that it's as good as you think.

>>61833797
it's basically only lauded because the west coast was incredibly dry in 2005 and 50 cent was there for game to ride his coattails

>>61833825
It's full of bangers that you'd probably recognize once you hear it. I was never into 50 and G Unit too much either, but The Game was my boy back in the day.

Actually underrated album coming through.

It's Blu's best and if you disagree you need to go back to Reddit.

>>61833529
>shitposting because I disagree

Butt hurt Kenny fan detected

>unpopular opinion

Then how is this album underrated?

A 10/10 to me doesn't really exist. Some excellent hip hop albums to me would be muddy waters, tical, fear of a black planet.

>>61833578
Calm down not everyone has to agree with you
