Welp. I guess this thread is going to get out of hand soon.

Allegedly it's called I Love Me, or something like that.

I agree that Kendrick probably can't win. No matter what happens there will be thousands of people who skip through the album and declare it "not as good as GKMC" on twitter. If it's not a concept album, or if it's moreso of a theme album like Section 80, people will neg it for not being as "cohesive" as GKMC. I'm sure Elliot Wilson already has a 4 minute video prepped titled "Kendricks' Name Album is Aite But Disappointing." Throw in some Drake subliminals and it'll be a wrap.

Everything we know about the album sounds dope to me. Thundercat, Digi+Phonics, DJ Quik rumors, more storytelling...I'm sold. Even the Dre news is welcome - not that I care about Dre's production today, moreso knowing that he's working hard on the album which likely means he's once again exec producing. mastering, altering tracks, etc.

There's no way the first single can be worse than Backstreet Freestyle so I'm all good.

WAIT WAIT WAIT... Kendrick might be working with Quick?

I am so fucking hyped now.

 

[HiResDes]

Y'all really think this shit gonna drop before December lol

 

[codhand]

this gif also applies to the notion of "dre working hard on the album"

 

[Storm Chamber]

Pirus and crips got along brehs

 

[TheKaeptain]

I say either thanksgiving week or December.

 

[cdyhybrid]

Cmon brehs, at least wait until the song sucks before people start freaking out. It's just cover art.

 

[Courage]

Black Friday along with Hood Billionaire, Yeezus 2 and Shady XV

 

[Storm Chamber]

Man people plop down $60 based off of gifs. Let us cook

 

[studyguy]

Supposedly the new album isn't going to have any features. I dunno how you guys feel about that. One side of me wants Kendrick to dominate on this new album and do his own shit since he's been feat on fucking everything recently

 

[MuddyDonut]

I'm fine with that. Trying to remember features I really like on King Kenny's songs and the one that comes to mind immediately is Gunplay.
Oh and Jay Rock of course off of Money Trees.

 

[Zeus Molecules]

Pirus and crips got along brehs

ahh ok I didn't get it.... now that I do I got to say that cover is deep.

 

[PhoenixDark]

Every rapper says their album won't have features, and then it's released with features. I'm sure there will be a couple singers and at least one TDE rapper.

I don't want a second "Real" hell naw

And I really hope this won't be just GKMC leftovers because his statement be read this way.

 

[Esch]

Lol even the idea of an Interscope album in 2014 with no features is funny.

 

[Courage]

And I really hope this won't be just GKMC leftovers because his statement be read this way.

No way. The dude's work ethic is admirable; he wouldn't just release half-assed material to follow up one of the most critically acclaimed albums like that.

 

[studyguy]

The way it sounds like dude could have probably dropped an entire album of just GKMC leftovers

 

[MuddyDonut]

Need at least one Sia/Rihanna feature to get out of the door.
I also have a feeling his main single wont be as big as the ones for GKMC. However, im ready to eat crow for when i hear them.

 

[overcast]

He didn't say "no" features, just few

Fuck me, this single about to be the end of GAF-Hop. Biz and Toku need to hit the bomb shelter to preserve the culture.

 

[The Return of]

Lol the culture

 

[Tokubetsu]

I like the new Yelawolf. It sounds like what he's been trying to do for awhile now (some kinda alt-rap with country?) but not garbage. I think Love Story will turn out fine.

Also Kendrick not dropping any album this year unless somehow this single is HUGE. It won't be.

This seems about right.

 

[Esch]

Kendrick Duckworth about to have his Hard Knock Life moment, brehs

Maybe

Probably not

 

[enzo_gt]

Where the fuck jay rock at?

in his place

 

[The Artful Dodger]

What are the odds all these albums that are supposed to come out this year, actually come out and aren't delayed?

 

[Tokubetsu]

Very low unless they already have dates and album art.

Duckworth isn't dropping this year. A big guy like Jay z, kanye etc could always do a random drop whenever they feel like it, but the others need to follow the #OldRules

 

[studyguy]

This dude

you helped my cousin back in '94; bless yo truce

my first album had no famous guest appearances; the outcome?

in his place

haha damn

 

[Storm Chamber]

Solo albums that are actually solo albums though

Maybe 1 or 2 guests but thats it

You don't think we'll see the full TDE stable appear on this album?


Also yeah I think most stuff gets postponed...

I'm not even sure if Gibbs will drop Eastside Slim this year.

 

[overcast]

Where the fuck jay rock at?

@dangerookipawaa: Be Patient...i wont let yall down.... kdot and @jayrock coming soon....#TDE

Whatever that means punch.

 

[Storm Chamber]

You don't think we'll see the full TDE stable appear on this album?

They probably will. I actually don't mind if the features come from the same group like old Wu-Tang albums, I'm just saying its a great thing when a rapper can hold down an entire album by themselves

 

[jakefromstatefarm]

SZA is pretty much an afterthot.

Hoping this was intentional

 

[PhoenixDark]

I doubt Kendrick will get delayed to 2015 due to how big this holiday season will be for retail. He'll be fine. Especially with Clear Channel and Interscope with their fingers on the button.

I'm surprised Rihanna hasn't made noise yet. She allegedly has a huge song with Mustard. Guessing she'll get a big late October/early November release.

 

[Tokubetsu]

This dude

You forgot the best one:

 

[IrishNinja]

Hoping this was intentional

haha no way it wasn't, too perfect

I'm just sayin man. That was my first and last time at LSA

Is Christmas even big for music sales anymore?

 

[big ander]

Kenny's dropping this year. no way he doesn't. He's not missing holiday season.

 

[Rastafarian42]

The beat for Kendrick's new single I ?

Definitely sounds like Dre did it dem trumpets horns :wow:

If that's real, awesome. Don't know how he'll go more "aggressive" on that, but I wanna hear it now.
