If they want to appeal to a broad audience (i.e. white people) then yes. Most black people cant stand black power shit btw, that's why "the hood" hated tpab so badly. Only retarded college kids buy into this kangz shit

fantano gave it a 7 and p4k gave it a 9.2. i seriously dont know if i should delete it or not? what did you guys do?

>>72263725
If pitchfork gave it a 9.2, then it's probably overly-political cringe. I probably won't even bother downloading it.

That's because it's an 8. Keep it on rotation for a month then drop

>>72263725
Delete yourself my man

he's right. DAMN. is Kendrick's weakest release to date. it's a good album compared to other rap albums released this year, but it's hardly GKMC or TPAB.

i'd still rather listen to DAMN. than most rap albums released this year.

So, really, neither review will tell you whether the album is good

Fantano acknowledged on twitter that people thought he was Kendrick dickrider.


He was clearly self-aware of what this review
would do to his image as a critique and wanted to throw off the "He overly praises anything Kendrick does" blanket.

>>72263679

you sound insecure and racist.

>>72264046
or maybe he felt genuinely about the projects he reviewed positively, and then kendrick just so happened to put out a weak album in comparison to said previous projects, and it got reviewed as such

I don't believe him when he said the Deuteronomy thing didn't affect his score. I think his inner SJW couldn't forgive him for implying minorities have bad things happen to them because they don't live righteously enough. I don't even believe Kendrick really believes that anyway, I think it goes with the depressed theme of the album, in that Kendrick feels so disenfranchised by the world around him, he is willing to believe bad things happen because he is bad, because he loves God so much he has to justify him at all costs instead of being mad at him.

Deserves a 6 tbqh familia

An absolute madman he is

Kendrick is a shit rapper and collaborations are the only reason To Pimp A Butterfly was good, and it was only just good despite inflated reviews.

This album was run of the mill, typical dog shit rap. Was hoping for something good but couldn't wait for it to end after I realised it was shit through and through. 4/10 but nice production, TPAB is an 8/10 album. GKMC is a 5/10. Rest is shit.

Based-thony Fantano does it again

>>72263719
How the fuck would your white reactionary ass know what "the hood" thinks about anything

I don't agree with a lot of his review. He said it wasn't interesting sonically, had a loose concept that wasn't adhered to, and basically said LOYALTY, LOVE and GOD sucked.

I think it is Kendricks best album sonically. TPAB was ambitious with it's jazz, but it was also challenging at times. DAMN flows well and is the most replayable of his albums as far as the music itself.

DAMN has a looser concept, but all the songs adhere to it. LOYALTY feels like a random Rihanna pop song at face value, but after FEEL in which he is rejecting everything and everyone out of frustration, LOYALTY is him reminding/asking himself what he is loyal to and why. He isn't talking about loyalty to Rihanna. LUST is about physical and material distractions from the world around you, and that's why LOVE fits in directly after. At face value, it seems like a random slow-dance love song, but after LUST, it is him realizing what matters in the fast moving world around him, which is his significant other. The entire album is a look into Kendricks distraught mind and finding meaning/silver linings in depression and God.

I get not liking those songs, which is fine, But saying they don't belong is just wrong. If Melon feels like it's a 7 just based on the music itself, thsts fine too, but he's basing that on criteria that he says it doesn't meet, even though it does. He spent all week saying he would touch on things no other review did, but put out a review less insightful than the AV Club's. Based on his own criteria, he should rate it an 8. I think its a 9.

Anyway, blog over.
