Kendrick Lamar - good kid, m.A.A.d city
100

good kid , m.A.A.d city is , my favorite album ever made , and is also one of the best hip-hop / rap albums ever made in history . this project is such a step up from section.80 , kendrick’s debut album . despite that album being amazing in itself , this is miles ahead of it .

the album tells you the story and the events of kendrick’s life growing up in compton , california in the 2000s after the after effects of the crack epidemic . the perfectly placed lyricism that kendrick puts ... read more

MAVI - Let the Sun Talk

let the sun talk is one of the greatest abstract hip-hop / rap albums i’ve ever listened to . it’s gotten me through so much and is such a powerful album with lyrics i can relate to . much like “some rap songs” by earl sweatshirt , this album is more melodic sounding and with lyricism that are just straight poetry , much like earl as well , except MAVI has his own style to it .

Earl Sweatshirt - Some Rap Songs
100

with songs like “nowhere2go” , ... read more

Earl Sweatshirt - solace
100

solace is a 10 minute song / ep / album split up into parts . the definition of solace is finding comfort during depression or a difficult time . pink is a comfort color, and is also the cover art .

part 1, with the chorus repeating “i’ve been here before” references relapsing into depression . then, when the beat changes and earl starts his first verse, he talks about how he suffers from severe depression, and ends up smoking it away in his free time . “you can see it ... read more
