i haven't listened to a single song by kendrick lamar

but i've never seen more praise for a new record
it's "game-changingly good", according to one of my buddies

even anthony fantano gave it a 10/10

i just wanna make sure that it's indeed "that good" before i walk into it all cynical

Your love gets me so high
I actually have listened to it and there are a few tracks that are so good they kinda caught me by surprise at first.

But I definitely wouldn't call it "game-changingly good"

So you're purposely expecting something to be unrealistically good so that when you listen to it you'll be disappointed? And of course you're aware that doing this is just going to guarantee that you'll be disappointed. So do you consciously try to get yourself to hate things to help justify anti-natalism or are you not even aware of what you're doing?
yeah you didn't overanalyze that at all

kendrick lamar is a straight-edge, "conscious" rapper who raps about relevant issues as opposed to sex, drugs, or money

what reason would i willingly or "purposely" choose to dislike or be disappointed by his music

i'm asking people to take the album down to a more realistic notch so that i won't be disappointed

it's not THAT good but it's probably the best mainstream rap album that's came out in awhile IMO

you're hearing some overhype, but it really is a very good album. only one track i didnt like. he's made consistent improvement over the course of the 3 albums he's released so far. his music is pretty unique in the rap game, especially this album.

here's the opening track off the new album, To Pimp a Butterfly
YouTube



also, he isnt straight edge. he's a former alcoholic, and he's drinking again. he doesnt smoke weed because his first blunt was laced with either coke or angel dust. he just happens to be very conscious of these issues, like you said.

never mind I dug up where I saw it and it was fake lyrics that just kept getting retweeted on Twitter

I've yet to listen to the whole album
