Yeah, everyone is. It's human. I'm a hypocrit in many things. But when it comes to this art/artist thing I personally just decided a few years ago that I separate 100% and I won't even pretend I haven't been and won't be listening to music from fucked-up persons.

Just to be clear, even though it should be obvious, I'm not condoning anything of that vile shit that X motherfucker has done as a person. That's a whole nother story and he should go to jail and be called out for it hard wherever he goes. I also don't have a clue right now what the status of Kodak Black's rape case is... but we all been bumping his new album, anyway, no? His album being better than X's stuff doesn't make his possible actions less disgusting. That selective morality, instead of just admitting you listen to anyone you like no matter what they do in real-life, is hypocritical.

I won't play Dragon Quest XI with sound muted either even though the composer is a piece of shit. Where do you draw the line when a product is made by hundreds of people and you only know of one of them being asshole? It's such a complex topic. See the whole Roman Polanski discussion (still haven't seen any of his movies, though). Maybe I will change my mind on that matter someday. But for now it's like this.

Do I make sense? It's late over here, I'm tired as hell.

Oh, and wait, what did Miles Davis do? :/

Miles Davis beat Nina Simone

I have not listened to Kodak, now most of that has to do with him not being good but still.

My ability to listen to something begins at the top, if one of your 20 producers is a shitheel, not gonna care as much as if it was your lead actor. If an extra is a terrible person, not gonna care as much as I would if it was lead writer.

Didn't we know the name To Pimp A Butterfly a few days before that album dropped? Feels like we know jack shit about this one.

I don't believe the feature list quite yet.

Michael Jackson was credited as a songwriter on King Kunta because Kendrick says "Annie are you okay?"

Could be a number of things so we'll see.

U2 is great up to the early 90s. I don't really see any of their tracks working for rap samples though, maybe guitar or some shit. lol this will be weird.

Weird was my first impression listening to tpab and that was divisive enough. If they got U2 on it all hope is lost for TDE

I normally put it away but I forgot. Second song in some guy knocked it off, fell in the crowd so it was gone. Found it later, one glass out :p Needed a new pair anyway, don't mind

But it was crazy, one of the most energetic shows I've been to

First post here. Just wanted to say, I don't like how Drake rhymes "bigger" with "n***a" in one of his newer songs (can't remember the title). They don't rhyme!

Listened to GKMC and TPAB and then read both of their lyrics without the music.
Gotta say that I'm not that impressed with GKMC lyrically/rapping wise anymore aside from a few songs/moments, but TPAB? Man Kendrick is spitting/writing so well on TPAB, incredible evolution from GKMC to that project.

After I listen to them again I want to write more on that.

EDIT: Just checked. How does it not rhyme!? oO Are you the type of people who doesn't understand what assonance is and comments under Rap videos if two words in a rhyme don't end on the exact same syllable? :D

Belly - Glorious.

A$AP Ferg ft. Remy Ma - East Coast. His new single. Apparently he's working on his next album in Liberia?

Kap G ft. Chris Brown - I See You. Sounds like an alternate universe You Remind Me.

Tish Hyman ft. Ty Dolla $ign & Def Loaf - What It Feels Like. Bangs.

Gorillaz ft. Pusha T & Mavis Staples - Let Me Out.

French Montana ft. Future - No Pressure.
French Montana ft. Swae Lee - Unforgettable. Both of these are catchy because the features delivered, especially Swae Lee. Apparently he dropped these to take attention away from this tweet.

Also that Logic diss track kind of goes.

The Internet defends him because he fulfills their angsty adolescent desires by rapping in a a screamo voice, beating women and other 120 pound wastemen and writing songs entitled "Broly" and "I Don't Wanna Do This Anymore" Oh and dude looks like a failed fusion of SSJ Goku and Eric Andre. He is the avatar for the disgruntled emo vagrants of modernity who had too good of a youth to truly feel marginalized and thus feel the need to manufacture adversity.

Quoting for facts. Don't forget that a large part of it is just looking for reasons to shit on Drake.
