Hi, any good, free 'conscious' tapes lately? Doesn't have to be super political or anything just anything other than drug dealing, trap rap or shooting people. Stuff like Shad or Skewby (whatever happened to that dude?)

Need something with a little more substance for my commute; I'm completely out of the loop honestly.

Thanks!

Brilliant, thx hrd!

Still upset he didn't expand a lot touring wise. Ridiculous.

Because he's not that popular and is largely a media creation. Media spends so much time telling people how great he is whereas I don't get the impression many people liked his album...

Even today he has 0 presence on radio. Radio isn't everything but when Swimming Pools is the only song getting play 4 years later...yeah. Apparently King Kunta was a huge hit in Australia which explains the tour dates there this week.

Seriously, when was the last time a big or semi noteworthy rapper released an album and didn't announce a tour? The only big tours Kendrick does are when he's opening for big artists (Drake, Kanye) or doing a festival...

He released a so called major important album and couldn't secure a tour. So he did a little mini "intimate" tour months later. Meanwhile Cole is selling out MSG.

It is interesting about the tour stuff, and I'm no Kendrick fan personally, but still. I don't think he's merely a media creation. I know some pretty big Kendrick fans and I think his music genuinely resonates with a lot of people.

TPAB wasn't really made for hit singles you can sing and dance to in your car. Doesn't mean the people don't like it.
