Solid album, it's grown on me a little since its release.
-
not going back to that album at all
too many other dope albums dropped since than and i wasnt that impressed at all anyway
-
Definitely the best album of 2012 in my opinion. I think a lot of people hated on it just because it was so dope that everybody loved it. Everybody had excuses like "Yeah, it didn't bring anything new to the table, blah blah blah. It sounded too this and too that" and i think some people hated on it because they don't understand English that good.

They don't understand English that well.

How so?
I thought it was a good album but I hardly play it anymore. Definitely not a classic in my book. I think a lot of people jumped on the band wagon because he was the new thing from the Westcoast. Another album or two and people will get bored of him and move on to the next artist.
I actually liked him better prior to GKMC.

Rap album if the year 8/10
Excellent concept and execution, something all to rare in the genre

It will definitely be considered as a classic rap album and is one of the best debuts of all time in the genre.
I need to buy it again actually because I sold the version I had in the hope of getting the UK version of the deluxe edition (which has the most extra tracks on it), but I haven't been able to find it since.

Love the storyline it followed but for me Section 80>GKMC

Love the storyline it followed but for me Section 80>GKMC
the story line and the cohesiveness of the project (bar two radio oriented songs) gives it an edge over section .80 imo, even though my favorite K Dot tracks are from section 80 (which reminds me i haven't listened to the album in a long ass time)

lol so u raised ur rating now and have it at a full point higher than "regulate", "reasonable doubt", and "bizarre ride 2 the pharcyde"?
the album was good, like a few others said, but not groundbreaking like many people acted.

It's better than good, and while not exactly groundbreaking...nothing else sounds like it

Yeah, i agree with you. Both albums are dope though.

the subject matter and cohesiveness of the overall album is far better than overall style of production, yes...still, a lot sound like it. for instance, andre 3000, drake, tech n9ne, and devin the dude gumbo....sayin "nothing else sounds like it" is a stretch, because there is a lot of borrowing goin on.

GKMC is neither copycat or generic. Laughable to see him compared to Tech n Devin, what u smokin on

lol will, as much as u'd like 2 think u know ur shit, u really dont
some of the singin has elements of devin's classic style and the build up harmonized flow is straight jacked from tech n9ne...andre 3000, i dont even have to get into, and the song wit drake, it's almost hard to tell them apart at first listen....but u wouldnt understand, cuz u clearly lack the criteria to be considered a hip-hop head.

A "New" Classic
-
Still a great album to me, yes maybe a classic. To me the question is not if I still bump it regularly. Didn't listen to all the undisputed Westcoast classics in years.
-
Classic in the making
I slept on it the beginning but the shit was incredible.
He should've done a video for it tho kinda like Steets is Watching.
-
classic to me.
-
It had its standout songs for sure. But had some sort of a "blah" factor here and there throughout the album.
But in the last year, he's propelled himself to the front line of the game and that's cool to see. Especially from someone whose album didn't have a "sellout" sound.

When you realise there's not one definitive opinion on hiphop you might elevate and enlighten yourself fam, and hopefully notice there's a world of music outside your comfort zone

devin's style is too lackadaisical and irrespective of any technical consideration to be compared to kendrick's, who is very minute and precise in the way he constructs his verses. devin clearly doesn't give a fuck about the complexity of his verses and his rhyme schemes, and dude is just naturally entertaining. he just lays out his verse like that and speaks mostly about women, life and weed. kendrick does way more than that. just cause he kinda sings doesn't mean he bites devin, come on now.
kendrick's flow has nothing to do with drake's, their verses barely have anything in common on poetic justice.
as for tech n9ne and andre 3000 maybe but that's not blatant ripoff, more like influences. it's okay to have influences as long as you have your own style (we could cite eminem being influenced by Masta Ace which is clearly recognizable in the way he raps, that doesn't mean he bit Ace), which Kendrick definitely does : the nerdy street poet with odd subject matters and intricate rhyme schemes
it's safe to say that nothing sounds like kendrick, he's as peculiar as tyler the creator. they're similar (although sounding very different) in the sense that they both embody this new rapper wave of late 80's and 90's (even 00's) babies being born in this consumer society and who incorporate nerdy elements into street culture. when you heard socal youngins rappin in the 90's and early 00's it was all about gang banging, even the "alternative" LA Sound (busdriver, ellay khule, project blowed, peeps from the good life café) talked about gangbanging cause that was their culture. now Kendrick also deals with such subjects heavily in GKMC (see the two title tracks, the art of peer pressure, sherane aka...) but it's more than that.
But in the last year, he's propelled himself to the front line of the game and that's cool to see. Especially from someone whose album didn't have a "sellout" sound.
exactly, TDE is a very respectable label and it's good to see that they succeeded without having to switch.

obviously, kendrick is a superior lyricist to devin and has better technical skills, but his soul on the mic aint half of what devin's is. that wasnt my point, tho...what i was gettin at was that the "singy song" rap voice he uses from time to time does resemble elements of devin's. listen to "bitch dont kill my vibe" again and think about devin while u doin it.... kendrick does also do the nasal drake voice/stretchin out of the words from time to time, dont see how this isnt obvious?
and yea, kendrick has developed his own style, no doubt, but my point was that he's far from 100% original and saying nothing sounds like his shit is a stretch.
-
Safe to say we have a lot of people hating because it's the thing to do. But I give the album a solid 9/10. It was an album you can listen to front to back, it had some really good hits and a few songs that will live on in Hip-Hop history, and it was a breath of fresh air in a time when the air is dirty. On top of that, Kendrick was on top of his game and off one album he is challenging for the top spot.
I do think it was better than Regulate, and Bow Down, and 187 He Wrote. So with that said, I think it's a westcoast classic, bordering on 21 Century Hip-Hop classic right now.

Yep! LOL... I put the "and" twice because I was going to stop at two albums, but then I was like, fuck it, let me get a third. Then I forgot about my "delete" button.
"GKMC" is classic. In the 21st Century, I'm saying it's top 5. That's right, since 2000, top 5. Blueprint, Stillmatic, The Eminem Show, College Dropout, Good Kid M.A.A.D. City.
-
wow, ur list sucks LOL
-
What sucks about the list? Pretty on point IMO. Although I'd pick MMLP over Eminem Show.

LMAO @ 'accepted notions' - u think many people out there have even heard both those album? :D
Listen to SDDS again, shits dope. Like I originally said, the albums completely overlooked as having *any* merit
-
Album wad dope. I want Dre to be more involved in his 2nd album though in terms of making beats. I want KDot to take it a bit old school. Get DJ quik in the mix as well. Now that Kendricks popularity has risen, he wont have to sell out with the POP beats. he'll still sell, as long as it's dope. Kendrick can get away with it now. I want his 2nd album to have more of a westcoast feel but bring that lyrical.

All those (not including GKMC) are very good but not great albums
GKMC is different class. It's not so hard to comprehend :)
EDIT: I just skimmed tho SDDS and you're right, it's not as good as I remember - It's still decent tho (thats a 6.5/10 so still close, and good for an underground album)

it's not even close to "regulate" in terms of innovation, bumpability, and overall production value.
it's a good album, but highly overrated on this site. and even as overrated as it is, i dont think u guna find any1 sayin it's better than regulate LOL.

See, what kills me is people saying Kendrick needs to take it old school. Man, that's the WRONG direction he needs to go. Hip-Hop is always suppose to be moving forward. It's always forward, never backwards. Yeah, maybe get Quik on a beat, or Dre, but don't force the issue. These are not the things that make or break an album. GKMC was post gangsta rap, it was almost the death of gangsta rap in a way. That in it's self makes it a HUGE album. For the last 25 years, we've heard gangsta tale after gangsta tale. This album was the other side, the kid just trying to survive. That's moving forward.
"I live inside the belly of the rough
Compton, U.S.A. made Me an Angel on Angel Dust, what"
"Any nigga can kill a man, that don't make you a real nigga.
Real is responsibility, real is taking care of your motherfucking family, real is god, nigga."

Kendrick flipped an Ice Cube classic and had MC Eiht rapping on the second half of the song, that's about as old school as he needed to go 8)

u dont have a point...if u really tryna argue that kendrick's album is superior to regulate because of lyrical skill, that's equivalent to saying cages last album is better than the chronic because of lyrical skill. that line of thinkin holds no weight.

Kendrick's album was better than Warren G's for 3 simple reasons.
It told a story, which is a true tradition of westcoast rap. One thing the west has always done well is tell stories, and this album told a story within the songs and throughout the album.
The lyrical skill of Kendrick was far superior than Warren G and the G Funk family.
Though Regulate had better production, the production on GKMC wasn't that far off, enough that the lyrical skills and story telling helped push Kendrick above Warren G's Regulate.

You heard a bangin beat but its got a wack mc ruining the potential of it being great track?
That's basically Warren G on his first album
That album could've been as good as doggystyle, but Warren was decent at best. It's still very good despite that, but not a GREAT album. And fucc what Nik is sayin. You only need to get as far as a few seconds into track 2 to realise this :D

My top 3 for that season, 3 classics - best rap year since the deathrow era to me.
