Kendrick Lamar - GNX (November 22nd, 2024) Album • Page 6

It is simultaneously so fun to be online on days like this and also so stressful to have this happen while I'm working lmao

 

On two listens this is my 2nd favorite album by him

 

Wacced Out Murals... he knows how to open a fucking record like it's nobody's business

 

Tomorrow am just gonna be waking up looking for the broccoli

 

I gotta give this a second listen. I wasnt feeling the first 5 songs at all, but then reincarnated-tv off-dodger blue knocked me down.

 

Hate to say it but "wacced out murals" is Kenny going Yeezus mode (complimentary)

 

Maybe one of his best songs off rip

 

his twitter is so funny lol

 

peekaboo needs to be longer

 

That FJM album out today was good, first thing of his I’ve liked in awhile, but i apologize to it I’m not revisiting that for a minute rn lol

 

It's really fucking good and people should check it out when they're ready for a break from this.

 

Genuinely thought he was sampling NewJeans when heart pt. 6 started haha. Can’t work out which one though.

 

their albums really always come out on the same day? That’s so bizarre

 

I think I hear what you're talking about and I get "Impurities" by Le Sserafim from the sample

 

Gotta love early genius annotations

 

same year not day, only today has that happened- and kind of humble dropping when pure comedy did

 

Yes, that’s it! Knew it reminded me of some of the little K-pop I actually listen to haha

 

anyone see a list of features by chance?

 

The first split second of the luther vocal sample sounds like “IF YOURE LISTENINNNNN” from the sweetness
Edit:
Like 1:22

 

This man thought he was finally free this release

 

Kendrick's current/post-"Not Like Us" rapping voice reminds me of that time Nas tried to solve a murder

 

Anyway I've only got one listen in but so far this feels like easily his worst album since the early days - the sung hooks are generic or worse, the lyrics are less distinctive than he's ever been, and Jack Antonoff should be [redacted] for sport based on how much less rich, original and textured this sounds than the TDE albums (and for "Please Please Please" just in general). I did like the opener, "gloria" and "reincarnated" on first pass. Hope to feel differently down the line!

 

Ok

 

You’re not on tiktok my dude you can say that we should kill jack antonoff for these beats if you want
