[Jay Sosa]

Thanks everyone for the feedback on my question!

Is that confirmed? They have such different styles and yet they sound so good together, shit could be really special.

I dunno, the posse tracks are my least favorite. I love each and everyone of those guys..just not on the same track.

 

[Esch]

Q thinks the idea is wack, and everyone doesn't really need it.

I'm not too interested in it either. The whole thing would be more Slaughterhousy than Wu Tang, and thats not what we need right now.

 

[Discotheque]

I agree but Say Wassup was my shit tho. Stuff like that and Druggys wit Hoes (video) takes me back to summer chilling.

 

[Jason's Ultimatum]

Money Trees is my favorite I think.

 

[solarus]

First listen done, will need a few more to decide whether it's better than section 80. Money Trees is amazing and in the context of the album I didn't dislike Compton like before but I still don't love it.

 

[RJT]

The perfect album wouldn't be all of them on every song. Their duos are all amazing...


Btw, isn't it crazy that the year's top 10 will probably have 3 albums from the same crew. When was he last time we had that? Last I remember is during Wu's prime...

 

[Detox]

Jay Rock with Aftermath's gangsta rap experience hnnnnnnnng

Odd future fans would say Odd Future and I'd disagree, but go on.

 

[RJT]

Finally reached Money Trees. Can I possibly be antecipating a Jay Rock album? I never thought it would be possible...

 

[RJT]

I'd disagree too. Unless Frank Ocean dropped 3 albums on one year and no one told me...

 

[Jay Sosa]

Their duos are all amazing....

yep, that's absolutely true

 

[Syph Medwes]

Black Boy Fly shouldn't have been a bonus track everyone needs to hear that. Reminds me of an Eminem song but I can't put my finger on which one.

 

[kamspy]

I would like this album a lot more if Cartoons & Cereal was on it. "Bitch, Don't Kill My Vibe" is the best song.

Good idea. Just added it and tagged it as track 16.

 

[CountBlack]

bitch, dont kill my vibe

my god

SOUNWAVE YOU DIDN'T HAVE TO DO IT TO EM

backseat freestyle beat is crazyyy

but kendrick do it the justice it needed, still crazy tho


holy shit @ the new version of Art of Peer Pressure

 

[Esch]

Cant wait to give this the whip test

 

[RJT]

M.A.A.D. City is amazing

 

[tanooki141]

Is Collect Calls out there?

Black Boy Fly is pretty good too.

 

[njean777]

not really feeling this album so far, it just isn't on the level of section 80 so far. Or HNC or Control System.

 

[CRS]

Backseat Freestyle is going to set off so many alarms.

 

[Kusagari]

I'm finding it hard to believe anything will beat m.A.A.d City as my SOTY.

 

[CountBlack]

not really feeling this album so far, it just isn't on the level of section 80 so far. Or HNC or Control System.

it has a whole different sound than section 80 so far.

Section 80 had a very have jazzy influence to a lot of the tracks

Jay Rock on money treesssssss

 

[RJT]

I'm finding it hard to believe anything will beat m.A.A.d City as my SOTY.

Maybe Cartoons & Cereals...

 

[Esch]

Backstreet Freestyle is going to set off so many alarms.

I like that its as early as it is in the album. I originally wasnt feeling that but now i like it a lot more, probably should have used my headphones first time i heard it.

 

[njean777]

I may get use to it, it is only my first listen so just got to Swimming Pools and so far MAAD City has been the standout for me. Poetic Justice was alright, same with Money Trees. I may warm up to it so we shall see.

 

[Mattlikewhoa]

I loved section.80 and I'll give this a go for sure!

 

[HiiiLife]

It's so weird how I wasn't feeling Backseat Freestyle when it released a few days ago but now I'm digging it.

Spoiler

I could still do without the "BIOOTTCH OKAY"

 

[CountBlack]

Poetic Justice is a downer for me, not that I don't enjoy it, just ehh

Perfect feature for Drake though

GOOD KID

 

[DominoKid]

so whats the "A.A." about.
cause the only A.A. i heard on the album was Arron Afflalo and that's random enough.

 

[BlueSteel]

Sing about me. Good lord.

 

[MThanded]

shit bangs.

 

[tanooki141]

m.A.A.d city from 5:20 to 5:35 is amazing.

 

[Zeus Molecules]

Poetic Justice is a downer for me, not that I don't enjoy it, just ehh

Perfect feature for Drake though

GOOD KID

i don't know I like it and I often think Drake makes horrible music. This is different though it wasn't a shameful pop song pretending to be hip hop song. It was just a good song about women and drake stayed in his lane by just rapping about women. No singing, no annoying hook, just music.

 

[Bishman]

 

[Enter The 36 Chambers]

The Dre haters came out early in this one...

 

[CountBlack]

promise that you'll sing about me..

 

[HiiiLife]

Dope picture.

I wish he laid more bars down at the end of Swimming Pools. That beat change is crazy.

 

[overcast]

Wait until pitchfork gives it a 7.1

Spoiler

I am waiting until Tuesday to listen to it.

 

[-Stranger-]

Thinking of buying the deluxe edition.
I've only heard ''The Recipe'' so far, but that song is sick!

 

[LOZLINK]

Haven't made it completely through yet, but fuck does this album bang. Can't wait til opinions change greatly in a week like Section 80. Kendrick's music grows on you rather than initially clicking imo

 

[Knux-Future]

the first part of m.A.A.D city fucking bangs.

Makes you catch the holy ghost and shit.


Second part is good too...but when it drops I'm gonna have to split them up so I can replay the first part.

goddam

what do you use to split tracks?

 

[MidnightCowboy]

Going to give it a listen, hopefully I like it more than Section.80. Section.80 was serviceable, but I was too busy jamming to the superior Follow Me Home to care.

 

[Knux-Future]

what do you use to split tracks?

Itunes for now. I had a program for it but I lost it when my laptop died.

 

[mooooose]

The second part of mAAd City... that beat. Holy fuck. I'd love to hear all of Black Hippy on that one. That is dying for a posse cut... it'll never happen though.

 

[CountBlack]

theres a podcast out I think on Itunes of an interview with Kendrick, and he said he didn't want any Bonus tracks

guess he didn't get his way

Black boy fly >

 

[Jo Shishido's Cheeks]

Poetic Justice just ain't hitting.
At all.
Switching that for Cartoons and Cereal.

 

[Syph Medwes]

Is there a bigger/higher res version of this?

 

[CRS]

what do you use to split tracks?

Fission is amazing. Lossless editing/splitting.

 

[MidnightCowboy]

Maybe I need to listen to Section.80 again because I don't remember anything being better than Bitch, Don't Kill My Vibe...

 

[CRS]

Really, really liked Kendrick's hook on Poetic Justice. Makes me sad that I can't seem to stand Swimming Pool's.
