Fans and peers alike have been discussing Kendrick Lamar’s new album Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers since its Friday (May 13) arrival. With 18 tracks of dense content, the fifth studio effort from King Kendrick takes some time to properly dissect. But it looks like Eminem has formed his opinion just two days after its release.
On Sunday (May 15), Slim Shady came through with a tweet shouting out Dr. Dre and K. Dot’s latest studio effort, writing, “Yo @DrDre this Kendrick album is f****** ridiculous. I’m speechless.”
Within minutes, the tweet received over 16,000 likes and 500 comments with some agreeing with Em’s take and other begging him to take it back.
While Dr. Dre doesn’t have any production credits on the album, he’s the founder of Aftermath Entertainment and has long been affiliated with Interscope Records. Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers was released via pgLang, Top Dawg Entertainment, Aftermath and Interscope. It serves as both the follow-up to 2017’s DAMN. and Kendrick’s last album for TDE.
K. Dot made the announcement last August, writing in part, “As I produce my final TDE album, I feel joy to have been a part of such a cultural imprint after 17 years. The Struggles. The Success. And most importantly, the Brotherhood. May the Most High continue to use Top Dawg as a vessel for candid creators. As I continue to pursue my life’s calling. There’s beauty in completion. And always faith in the unknown. Thank you for keeping me in your thoughts. I’ve prayed for you all. See you soon enough.”
Kendrick Lamar Smashes Apple Music Streaming Record Thanks To 'Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers'
Nine months later, Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers arrived with features from Ghostface Killah, Kodak Black, Blxst, Summer Walker and Sampha, among others. The project is expected to debut at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 with over 300,000 total album-equivalent units sold in its opening week. It already smashed the Apple Music record for most first-day streams in 2022.
best album of the past 20 years, objectively
Eh? Good album but quit it bruh
And what exactly is objective about that ludicrous statement?
I like 12 out of 18 songs. That makes it a bit above average in my book. It’s Almost Dry on the other hand, I like 12 out of 12. So that’s a certified banger, potential classic to me. Kendrick needs to learn to “kill his darlings”. If you know, you know.
K. DONT DONT NEED VALIDATION FROM NO PALEFACE.
Stfu
SMD
Feel bad for you son. You’re completely retarded.
I FEEL BAD YOUR FATHER FOR PROVIDING THE SEED OF HOMOSEXUALITY THAT IS YOU.
Turn off your caps lock, retard
Hip hop culture is built on gatekeeping I feel bad because your mother should have swallowed you.
????u mad fucking dumb stay slobbing on Satan’s c0ck don’t you …bitch Em birthed Kendrick…we cry together is fucking horrible compared to the shit that INSPIRED that song like the slim shady LP and mm LP …em got his finger prints all over that. Kendricks really good but not Em good. Like story telling and shit in depth. But yes kdot is obviously more saucy got swag and more gangster but not the better rapper point blank like ? in yol fucking face ‼️ BIAAAAATCH
That paleface runs circles around your favorite rapper.
False. Kendrick needs validation from the pale faces who own him and his music. The J…Ewzz.
Get it? Nah, you’ll never get it lol.
Did Dre produce any tracks on this album?
Nope not 1 he just reminded yal mfrs who gyatdamn king is
What was Dre’s actual involvement. Just curious
Kendrick having the Aftermath logo with TDE & Interscope having theirs. Three way percentage spilt. Kenny giving them their over head
This is his worst album by far.
Was Em just tweeting bc it’s an Interscope support bc I don’t see any dre credits. And even funnier is how the Stan’s are all up in roar with this tweet without fact checking.
Na he did it to remind u silly ungreatful cockgobbling mfrs who the mfn man king and god of this rap shit ieah u feel me??
feminem is a wack ho mo like urself boy
Gucci mane is literally retarded along with every new rapper damn near, braindead no talent high on lean and baby blood and going down in Rico cases… yall need some better role models
WE NEED CLEARICEL TO REMOVE WHITE HEADS LIKE EM FROM HIP HOP.
Complete racist piece of crap you are. You are one of the many reasons why racism, reverse racism exists. Do everyone a favor and do a volcano walk and fall into the the lava.
I would type more and elaborate further but simple minded f@clktards like you would have to Google half the intelligence I would hit you with.
Yawn Bro!
You see how many people replied to your dumb comment. That goes to show that your ideology is completely wrong and you were just trying to make a joke when at the end of it you’re the biggest joke good luck buddy.
KYS
I am sorry, I don’t speak in acronyms, I use words. Playboy you are going to have to do a lot more than be a keyboard thug for me to end my life. Like if that is your only weapon and fire power you are speaking to the wrong dude homie. I feel bad for you’re family, your neighborhood, and anyone who comes across your path as you reek of ignorance and uneducated values. We can go back and forth but at the end of the day the only darkness you will see besides your skin is when your lights finally dim, because you will always sink, never swim, I turned this sh!t around, I win…..
YAWN
Judge people by there character not there color. Prejudice never wins. Not to mention a black man signed him. Get over yourself.
UNCLE TOMS ARE EVERYWHERE JUST LIKE YOU.
Fuck off. I’ll listen to whatever I want.
OK PALEFACE.
Good R&B effort
This whole comment section reaching. This is no different than an athlete tagging another athlete saying the album is good. Just because he tagged another person who happens to produce music doesn’t mean there was any involvement lol. Dumb internet beings don’t even know how the English language works anymore… Smh.
Dre is executive producer. From an artistic standpoint, the album is masterful. Many nuances in production, engineering was crisp, the theatrical theme meshed very well with K.Dot’s vulnerability and unique penmanship. That being said, the replay value is low for most of the records, it’s not for casual listening therefore you can only vibe to in solitude, it’s an album made to be thought-provoking and to create discussions around. I still prefer GKMC and I can see myself bumping Mr.Morale only once in a while
Eminem is not relevant at this point. Drake’s lack of support for mr morale is very telling and explains how shit the quality this is
Em has 51 mil listeners at 50 years old. That’s almost as much as your hero drake in his peak.
1. Drake has way more listeners than that.
2. Eminem’s latest album in sales didn’t come close to drake and barely beats out future’s latest album sales.
this just not true at all lmao music to be murdered by completely destroyed CLB in BOTH sales and views on all platforms
That whole album is garbage. y’all trippin balls. Jesus here, Jesus there. Foh with that soft crap. Kendrick is extremely overrated, half the time he’s mumbling his lines like a drill rapper.
Doesn’t really matter what album he puts out. Dude hates white people. Ain’t getting a dime of my money and no streamplays. You white people paying for the privilege of being hated are morons.
Hm. No different from the numerous outlets like FOX News and trolls like yourself who hates on and talks crap about black people. At any rate, when exactly did he say that he hated white people, or is this one of those easy, lazy ways to desperately have an excuse to just bash another black person like you guys on this site love to do?
So, “at any rate, when did fox news say they hate black people”?
See, your own logic can also be applied to your arguments, which apparently you didn’t do…
FACTS!!!!!!
Eminem is a self-hating cuckold. Also a corny goofball by every standard.
he said its fucking rediculus how is that speechless lol
How come you keep recycling the same story ?????
Album was absolute rubbish. Alot of meat pulling and dik riding only bc its Kendrick. Not trying to listen to this dudes therapy sessions. Its his worst album and its not even close. Vince Staples new album shits all over this.
Even Phife Dawg and Mc Eiht newest albums are way better.
the em diss must have went over his head lmao
It definitely requires time to listen, dissect, and digest. Overall the album is straight up classic! I expect Kendrick to win a Grammy for best album.
lots of weirdos on this platform
Im a kendric fan but this one is full of drama
Don’t trash something just because U scared to be honest with yourself and open your heart and mind and spirit to something greater
Of course eminem would love it. It’s just like eminem is nowadays. Good lyricism, terrible sounding sonically. That’s where Kendrick is at.
I wish we could behead any and all white people who enter into the realm of hiphop. You not wanted nor welcomed here.
Uh oh.
Who hurt you? and where?
Save us the trouble and do yourself.
Em is speechless but inr he’s needless. Overrated novelty rapper with boring beats and monotonous lyrical-miracle-izm. Btw the Kendrick album sucks ass too.
So many were frequently praising Eminem when something good happens to him or defending him when another rapper trash talks him. Now this comes up and people bash him? Erratic as hell.
Kendrick kept it real on Big Boy and said Damn is his best album. I respect that because usually artists try to overstate how good their new music is for fans to buy it. But Damn and GKMC are better overall albums, IMO, by a lot.
My bad, old interview that was reposted lol. But if he’s real with himself, it should hold true
Em is dope but he knows the game is før a blackmån….if yu don’t feel Mr Morale it doesn’t prove tø us a’l thåt the album is trash…..it’s only in yø head…..some feel it some don’t even Lamar knows it and thus whåt keeps the dude going………so if yøu suffer from RACISM just quit….coz the shit flows in the negro’s blood
SHIT SUCKS AS OMUCH IT DEDIES DESCRIBTION. WIRSE THAR EVIVAL & SIDE B & ENCORE & MLP2 COMBINED #FACTS #100 $#NEXT
