also now playing the Rigamortis video again though I now remember that I just didn't like that track much, and I still don't.

ah what how did that post 3x
― Burt Stuntin (Hurting 2), Tuesday, 28 January 2014 06:56 (ten years ago) link
Rigormortis grabbed me instantly, and is the track that put me onto him.
I still would rather listen to Section 80 than GKMC most of the time. I wouldn't say it's better, but I go to it more.

Actually the track that grabbed me was Backseat Freestyle

so now kendrick sounds like he's parodying himself?http://youtu.be/T9B3z-8P_7spretty weak beat too imo
like alicias timing though :)

I applaud the decision to put his part in the front so I can turn it off when Keys starts.

anybody know if he's any good in concert? rap shows are a mixed bag for me and he's playing at UCF Sunday but last time I saw a show there, I watched Meek Mill lazily rap over tracks that didn't even have the original vocals removed and silently DJing other MMG songs, soooo....
Freddie Gibbs/Tech N9ne (yea ok probably the only fan of the latter on this board) are here Thurs but part of me would rather see Kendrick.

He's fantastic live. Go
― Number None, Monday, 14 April 2014 16:59 (ten years ago) link
track's terrible, much like the tame impala one. he's not above soundtrack dross, which, whatever. he can do that.
― Simon H., Monday, 14 April 2014 17:08 (ten years ago) link
it increasingly seems like he didn't do much of anything embarrassing before his first major label album simply because he hadn't been offered the opportunity yet

idk colin munroe is on section.80, we should've known
― le goon (J0rdan S.), Monday, 14 April 2014 17:32 (ten years ago) link
i dunno who that is but his name is colin so point taken

Context matters here—this is a song from a Spiderman soundtrack, and "shitty Spiderman soundtrack music" is almost its own genre at this point. But yeah, I pretty much hate every growled verse Kendrick has done since "Control." Feels like at at some point he stopped understanding what it was people liked about him.
― Evan R, Monday, 14 April 2014 17:55 (ten years ago) link
he's jumped very quickly from the early eminem to late eminem stage in his career, much like lady gaga was madonna in fast forward

i actually would kinda like to hear what a really aggro ego tripping post-"Control" Kendrick album would sound like, as long as it doesn't have any Alicia Keys or Imagine Dragons hooks.
― some dude, Monday, 14 April 2014 18:14 (ten years ago) link
I think it would sound like Kendrick's answer to Pink Friday: Reloaded. "Control" is really starting to feel like his "Monster" moment to me, an exciting verse that shot him to new heights of acclaim, but that in hindsight fucked up his career by sending him down a really goofy, one-note lane as he kept trying to repeat it and top it.
― Evan R, Monday, 14 April 2014 18:21 (ten years ago) link
I mean, out of what I've heard, his track record for guest spots on things that are not on terrible soundtracks is still p damn spotless. Whatever.

does anyone here really like "maad city"
it was one of my least favorites on the album but i think it's ok now, his voice is super weird on that track tho
― le goon (J0rdan S.), Monday, 14 April 2014 18:42 (ten years ago) link
he has a great introspective not gimmicky verse on the new YG album
― Juelz Fantano (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Monday, 14 April 2014 18:44 (ten years ago) link
good on the SZA track too
― Simon H., Monday, 14 April 2014 18:47 (ten years ago) link
I love Good Kid, M.A.A.D City more than any Eminem album though so I'll forgive him. His bit on Schoolboy Q's "Collard Greens" is the best of his recent guest appearances.
― guess that bundt gettin eaten (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Monday, 14 April 2014 18:49 (ten years ago) link
his verse on "nosetalgia" is incredible as well
― le goon (J0rdan S.), Monday, 14 April 2014 18:50 (ten years ago) link
yeah that was so good

I agree that guest appearance is a failure, but at least, it's somehow ballsy? I'd rather listen to this kind of shite guest apperance than say, Jay-Z unbelievably dull verse on Drunk in Love. At least, Kendrick tried something.

i thought it was generally one of the most well regarded tracks on the album! the weird delivery seemed like an overt 'character' thing to me though so it seems easier to accept as an outlier.
― some dude, Monday, 14 April 2014 19:46 (ten years ago) link
he's batting like .30 as a guest but he's clearly about making a bunch of cash and keeping name recognition high moreso than focussing on quality; can we maybe let him get a second major label release before we nail shut the coffin?

"Maad City" def the GKMC track I heard out most

"Maad City" is fantastic

seeing him tonight (floor seat), hear he's probably bringing Jay Rock too (yay).

Wow that was srsly awesome. Of course he didnt do my two favs but cant complain. Great energy...gave us extended encore!

also this Cash Money idiot was one of the openers, cos he was locally based: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Caskey_(rapper)
spoke with the worst fake dirtty-Souf accent ever (lol u from Orlando d00d). repeatedly asked audience members to pass him blunts to smoke on stage.
