    1. CAN KENDRICK STOP TALKING ABOUT OHTER PPLES WORK, HE BEGINNING TO SOUND LYK THE GAME, TRYN 2 PROVE A POINT BY NAME DROPPING…HIPHOPDX COME ON YOU KILLING US WITH DAT SHIT

      1. what the fuck is he supposed to say when they ask him his 3 favorite compton songs

        how would you answer that question without name dropping you fucking hoe

    2. Kendrick would have been the best if he didnt sign to Interscope and Jimmy Iovine. His section 80 album was a real album, unfiltered, and uncut. This new album was good but was watered down on what he could of said. This will end up like alot of albums of the 2000’s where people will talk on the net that this is the best thing ever, until the next new thing comes along.

      1. Water-downed…? It wasn’t supposed to be an album full of enlightenment, it was an album about his life – a story, something deep and personal, unlike Section .80.

      2. bitch, don’t kill my vibe. lol keep singing about me, I’m dying of thirst. I’m just commenting on his comments of him overhyping his album. The album was alright but hes just going to far with the ” its a classic comments” . Its cool though cuz when tge next thing comes in a few years everyone will forget about this. Even you. lol

    3. Well. Dope songs.. don’t forget about face of Compton N g-funk\g-rap – Boyz N The Hood, Real Compton City G’s..
