Revising this one up in honor of the new album which I like a lot less than this masterpiece
I think what made TPAB so compelling was this crazy combination of non-hip hop musical influences. What made GKMC so compelling was the storyline that ran through it. Both of these albums also had incredibly thematic connections and lyricism. While the themes and lyrics on this record are great, as Kendrick is a great poet, it lacks either of the elements that made his last two records so incredible.
