About to marathon this album. Is it good or is it just "CRACKAS BE OPPRESSIN US AND SHIT?"
>>
its a fucking masterpiece
>>
>>65132460
Both
>>
>>65132460
Well the quality of the music is subjective but the message isn't anti-white in any regard.
>>
what do you mean by "marathon", it's barely an hour long
>>
>>65132460
Listen to Good Kid MAAD City instead.
>>
>>65132545
This

>>65132460
It is and if the idea that it's all just the latter is just one-dimensional thinking and/or /pol/ shitposting.
>>
>>65132563
This. It isn't anti-white but anti-crackas.
>>
>>65132460
Why don't you listen to it then form your own opinion
>>

just a tv meme bruh.

>>65132545
nice meme

From my understanding Flying Lotus gave Kendrick a bunch of beats that eventually turned into this. Which is cool because there's a jazz influence that surfaces from time to time. Also Thundercats features.

There are some racially themed lyrics for sure, but it's fun to experience a perspective that you might not otherwise get to experience. "Alright" puts a stupid grin on my face because it's just an optimistic anthem for the oppressed. It's a fun experience.
>>
>>65132545
this desu

It was pretty interesting and I'm not even that into hip hop
>>
>>65132460
It's a mediocre album. Kendrick fell off. GKMC is much better. If you enjoy the themes, try out D'Angelo's Black Messiah. It's much more nuanced and subtle.

There, the whole album.

lol wut. That's like saying "im not anti black, im anti nigger"
>>
>>65133229
There's a difference between black and nigger. Like there's a difference between white and redneck/cracker. The term "nigger" for lots of people is the black equivalent of redneck.
>>
>>65133175
well it's not.
>>
Great album and in fact a complete opposite of what you said OP. He puts a lot of blame on the black community which is why some no taste blacks couldn't connect with it.
>>
>>65133025
they didn't say serious tho
>>
Best hip-hop album of the decade.
>>
>>65133252
this comment is so retarded. There's nothing "anti cracka" on this album, it's just pro black.
>>
>>65133254

Yes it is, by far lol.
>>
>>
>>65133320
lol, no. The rapping itself is probably better, but the songs as a whole just aren't as compelling.
>>
>>65132460
it's neither but it's closer to crackas be oppressin us and shit

it's more like mediocre and we wuz kangz btw fuck the police especially the white ones xd

"lol there's nothing anti-white about this album! just turn your brain off bro and join cuck-out like me!"

White people who masochistically enjoy celebrating their own genocide are frankly revolting. There's something so incredibly off-putting about a white person who takes every opportunity to hate themselves; it's so weak and disturbing to watch, like a person mutilating themselves publicly.
>>
It's not as good as GKMC, it has a little bit of "crackas be oppressing" and a little of the "we was kings, what happened to us?"... he puts blame on both, but overall it lacks a flow and coherence that made GKMC such a masterpiece. GKMC also has much better lyricism and Thundercat's noodly jazz is kinda overrated.

i've only listened to Good Kid, M.a.a.d City, and Untitled. Unmastered. by kendrick lamar
should i listen to his rest? i thought those were pretty good but im looking at more bangers like m.a.a.d city and the trap shit like the first part of untitled 07. i did like other songs though
>>
>>65133565
I've been referring to white guilt as " the new white mans burden" it's racist as fuck to assume that's its your responsibility as a white man to feel guilty for other races, as if they need my guilt to succeed or something

gucci mane sucks though
my favorite rapper is Earl Sweatshirt so i don't need hardcore trap shit. i was just saying that those were what i liked the most from kendrick so far.
>>
>>65133022
Anyone who argues that black messiah is the better album by a far margin is just fucking dumb. I could understand one liking it a little more but besides that it's coming from a similar place.
>>
>>65133738
yes

dick fart nigger poop xddd
>>
>>65133480
What about the fact that he states 'I'm the biggest hypocrite of 2015' right before blacker the Berry? Or that complexion is about equality between all races.

I don't see how kendrick will top this album

How could he top that album

it's bad because of the music, not the themese

TPAB > MBDTF
>>
>>65134128
>>65134148
He already did.

GKMC>TPAB

Not even memeing
>>
I'd say GKMC is the better album because of the story it tells. TPAB is good, there's no doubt about that but I wish he didn't go the political route.

But then again, there wouldn't be any need to tell another story if he already said what he had to say with GKMC.
>>
I mean there's certain an element of social inequality in the songs. But just as much as there is that, it's also about Kendrick confronting himself, his depression and his insecurities. If anything, it's more about Kendrick personally with racial tension as a side point that causes some conflict in himself.
>>
>>65132545
This.
The album does have an unironic "WE WUZ KANGZ" speech tho
>>
>>65132545

this

8.5/10 for sure

GKMC is better tho

How are they violent? They are celebrating throwing up money and beer. Your stereotyping is the problem we have in America.

Aryan Nazi, dumbass. Remember the whole "Eliminate the Jews" shit you learned in grade school?

>>themes focus around the coming violent revolution against nonexistent oppressive forces propagated by white people

You never picked up a history book about blacks in America, have you?

The songwriting is just way beyond what Kendrick is doing. Kendrick can rap, but D'Angelo is crafting timeless music here.
>>
>>65134855

yeah, 8.5 is a pretty high score

I don't have inflated ratings like P4K or Fantano, sorry

>>65133252
>it's totally fine because it's a classist word instead of a racist one

>>65133022
Lyrically, I'd probably disagree. Black Messiah is the better album for the following reasons
>>65135123

although I do think that TPaB is going to be a timeless album and a classic.

BM : TPaB :: There's a Riot Goin' On : Small Talk at 135th and Lenox

(Analogy is slightly reductive, but basically great lyrics vs. great songwriting)

I used to think Kendrick was a serious rapper until I heard he's a conspiracy theorist and doesn't even vote. His music is still good, regardless of how much of a BLM wewuzkangz fool he is.
