Xzibit's Napalm. I still think that's the almost best album of the year, doesn't matter he didn't made 50K 1st week. Like he said, this is marathon not a sprint.

C'mon now. We've heard 10000 albums like Napalm from westcoast artist. It's dope but it's nothing special. Your typical westcoast independent release.

GKMC is literally a movie. From the production, lyrics, album vibe, story telling....this shit is so well crafted. No fillers, you know exactly why each track is on the album.

Kendrick. Xzibit's album had some real standouts but too much filler.

as an album the kendrick is better crafted and sequenced but xzibit if i could pick five or six tracks i'd personally take those. such different sounds...

Xzibits album has 3-4 dope tracks. Too many fillers tho.

Kendricks album has a real concept and dope setting. Sometimes it is too much of the same thing but overall a really good album. So I gotta say Kendrick!

I agree.  Kendricks is kinda boring and the skits are excessive.  I don't want to go back to the stereo and hit skip everytime that shit comes on.  If I wanna watch a movie, I'll watch a movie.

Bought napalm today. First xzibit album iever bought/listened to. I must say I was pleased. I plan on buying Kendrick on Tuesday too. I expect a completely different sound. But both to be worth the cash.

I bought both. I gotta say Xzibit's is a good collection of songs but Kendrick Lamar's is a great whole album. Meaning Napalm sounds lime a bunch of dope songs grouped together on a CD but Good Kid M.A.A.D City is a well put together album how each song flows into the next,.how some songs even explain what was going on in the song before it. A lot of thought was put in putting this album together & the results is the best album I heard in a long time.

Kendricks album is IMO without cliche or ego. It's something fresh and he does what he does very well. You might not like it coz it don't sound typical West. It's more like a new sound with old roots, but the roots are there. People are tripping sayin he copied Andre 3k style or flow but to me he just sounds a bit geeky (not brash on the mic). But he does come fierce on tracks when he needs to. And he's not spitting anything like Andre 3k lyrically.

It doesn't sound like bubblegum pop rap or something 'trending' but u still might not like it ;)
