halfway through the title track

>"beat switches"
>>73470366
Ok can someone explain what makes beatswitches so hyped up? One beat stops, another one starts, rapper either keeps the same flow or switches it up a slight amount. What's the difference from a new song starting other than that the lyrical theme remains?

His switches were much better in The Heart IV
Take Me Out by FF
It's The New Style

I'm of the opinion that Kendrick is one of the premier talents of this generation, but DAMN. is straight up not very good.
The only track I can wholeheartedly say I enjoy is "Pride". It's the best track by a fucking mile. There's no beatswitch there, and it's better for it.

alchemist didn't produce this; allegedly
Alchemist signed this new kid, this producer named Randy. He’s one of the illest out. He produced that joint. He’s a real human. He’s from Tampa, and he’s just ill. He was out there [with us in L.A. at Alchemist’s house] chillin’. He’s coming up under Al’s wing, and he makes some better shit than Al, to tell you the truth. Randy’s a motherfucker.
That’s the only joint he did on the album. We only gave him one. He killed it. It’s a three-part joint, and he killed every part of it. It’s a musical, so it changes three times.
I see it all I see it all I see it all I see it all I see it all

haha yeah that's what happens you figured it out
MURS-Walk Like a Man (basically 9th Wonder's predecessor to Kendrick's DUCKWORTH)
Drake-Furthest Thing
Daft Punk-Too Long, Aerodynamic (probably a bunch more from these guys)
Kendrick Lamar- U
Meek Mill- Dreams and Nightmares Intro
Kanye West- Runaway (not really a switch per say but still)
