Jesus christ

 

Kodak shit is distracting my listen but “Father Time” is fantastic

 

Yeah 6 tracks in and Kodak already on 2 of them, wtf

 

Beth Gibbons of Portishead is an amazing feature. Wow, I need to listen to their albums again.

 

Kodak is... the narrator?

 

We Cry Together has big Eminem “Kim” vibes

 

he’s on 3

 

FYI just saw this:

The project is split into two parts, each comprising nine songs, all of which serve to illuminate Lamar’s continually evolving worldview. Central to Lamar’s thesis is accountability. The MC has painstakingly itemized his shortcomings, assessing his relationships with money (“United in Grief”), white women (“Worldwide Steppers”), his father (“Father Time”), the limits of his loyalty (“Rich Spirit”), love in the context of heteronormative relationships (“We Cry Together,” “Purple Hearts”), motivation (“Count Me Out”), responsibility (“Crown”), gender (“Auntie Diaries”), and generational trauma (“Mother I Sober”). It’s a dense and heavy listen. But just as sure as Kendrick Lamar is human like the rest of us, he’s also a Pulitzer Prize winner, one of the most thoughtful MCs alive, and someone whose honesty across Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers could help us understand why any of us are the way we are.

 

We Cry Together sounds good but uhh not really liking this

 

Yeah I meant 2 so far, aside from the listed feature. Huge disappointment, especially since everything else here so far is mostly impressive (I agree that track 3 is not it)

 

so this is gonna be the jumping the shark one huh

 

What is this We Cry Together Song. Why am I awkwardly standing in the corner as a couple argues?

 

I am on that one too haha

 

This album is interesting, what is this thread?

 

one of the most tense and uncomfortable things I've ever heard

I respect it, I think, but I'll probably skip it every time I revisit this album

 

omg i got to the harvey weinstein, r kelly part.

 

this album is wild

 

Uh oh

 

for better or worse, this album is an event between my twitter feed and this forum.

 

Yeah that was weird. In general I am loving this aside from that. Like I get the intent but

Will obviously need more listens (and to finish this one lol) before a full picture of what I think
