Looking at the concept, this is a crazy concept album. The main issue I have with this album is the consistency, as there are a few songs that just don't have the replayability I'm used to in Kendrick's music. FEAR. is an amazing song.
Conceptually, perfect. Execution, perfect. Writing, perfect. The only reason it isn't perfect is due to outros reducing replayability of some songs. It's GKMC, it's legendary.
Very accessible for an experimental album, while still using creative samples and sounds. It is a great album, but a few songs that fall behind a little. Blood On The Leaves is arguably Kanye's best song.
Honestly, this album is both overrated and overhated. I have listen to this album 25+ times, and multiple songs remain ageless, while some get old relatively fast (looking at you, Monster). While it isn't a top 20 rap album, it is still amazing
This album contains some of Lupe's most impressive lyrical performances, however he doesn't nail a perfect jazz rap record as it can get boring at times, unlike Samurai. Ms Mural is arguably his best pure writing, and an amazing song in itself.
