Kendrick Lamar Appreciation Thread

Still can't believe Kdot pulled this off.. I had high expectations but I still had a little doubt.. Met my expectations and exceded them.

I thank m.A.A.d City is hands down the best song to come out this year.. I love the beat switch to that G-Funk type beat.

This is probably the only album I've considered buying both physical and iTunes version. One of those albums you're gonna be glad to say you bought the day it came out.

During an interview with L.A. Leakers, the Compton, California native explained the meaning behind m.A.A.d, stating that it's a two-pronged acronym, the second of which was inspired by a bad smoking experience.
"It's two too manys. The first is 'my angry adolescent divided,' and the basic standout meaning is 'my angel's on angel dust.' That's the reason why I don't smoke," he said. "That was me. I got laced. The reason I don't smoke, and it's in the album. It's in the story. It was just me getting my hands on the wrong thing at the wrong time, being oblivious to it."
K. Dot also said that the and T.I. have a collaboration for the Southern rapper's upcoming album Trouble Man, and that he will drop his project with J. Cole "out the sky."

It's a very complex story.. will take you a couple listens to comprehend it, but you still won't even understand it all. I've probably listened to the whole album 7-8 times and still haven't got the whole story down.

Sounds similar to Lupe's first two albums. Looking forward to next week.
