Huh?!
Listened over a couple days. It was ok but didn’t really grab me like some other hip hop albums have.
Not it. Maybe this
Not my thing
This style of rap/hip-hop is both outside my area of expertise and not to my taste. In my professional opinion as a white Mexican with no rhythm, the flows are not great. Favorite song: King Kunta. 3/10
I'm probably to white for this Good artist, just not for me this one
Didn't enjoy the first half but it did get better.
Not one to listen to at work. Likes his dick.
5/10
I'm certainly no prude but I didn't enjoy this much, some of the beats were cool but there was way too much swearing, and not even functionally so as well as overuse of certain racial slurs.
I like the jazz influenced beats but it's not for me
Although, some parts are quite interesting musically, I can't help but think that it is completely ruined by vocal/rap parts.
Really like 1.5.
Better than most hiphop today but not really my cup of tea
Not my genre
Niin diippii lyriikkaa et tuli kakat housuun.
Not my genre.
Not my style. But nice flow
Immensely disappointing.
I know this album is probably good but it was another example of not understanding US black culture because i'm not american or black. That being said, i've really enjoyed some of this music. So maybe this just doesn't hit for me because of the simple fact that I don't like it. The music didn't do anything for me.
This record made me feel old.
Disappointing.
Bit meh
I get that people think Kendrick is a genius. I think people overuse that term. He is noticeably better than most of what's out there today; I don't care about most of it, so it's a bar I fear I'll trip over.
Not for me
No thanks
OK I suppose but doesn't seem to bring anything new to the party
I think this is a better album than good kid but it's not a huge difference. Kendrick is a good rapper when he turns it on but most of this is strange beats and repetitive spoken words. Can't even see the appeal of alright really, thought there were better songs on this. Think this confirms I'm just not a fan
Makes me feel like I’m about 100 years old. Don’t get it
Kenny har gjort bättre, säger min dotter. ”Inte så najs.”
Expected a good deal from this album given the praise it's received in the indie community and general culture, but felt let down given how overstuffed and overlong the end product is. Starts off incredibly strong with some excellent beats and wordplay courtesy of some heavy hitter guests (especially Thundercat), but hits a wall in the second half once the instrumentals start to blend together. Kendrick has some top-tier bars to lay down throughout the entire LP, but they get lost in a mix of too many ideas being stuffed into one song structure + too many one-off interlude/throwaway tracks that feel like dead-ends rather than detours on the LP's narrative journey.
Not my thing
Not for me. Just too much
It might be brilliant or so, but not to me. Too messy, sample here and there, no flow in general. And as usual on these albums the well known "terms", like in "song" 2.
Good music and production, but I just find the rapping very irritating.
He's not speaking to me or if he is the message is too embedded in black US culture.
overrated white critics rap
Not really my style I respect the creative choices and backings Pretty clean mixing
Didn't care for it. Can't put my finger on why. Maybe his choppy flow. Not sure.
It's a well put together album, and it's got a lot to it, lots of different vibes and styles, and some interesting things going on - that gives it an extra star, as I don't like it at all.
semmosta vai jassooo. sanoitukset silloin tällöin nappaa... sanoma... ilta-sanoma... musiikki joskus kiva.... jatsia.. jatsi influenssi... mutta hip hopotus osuus ,,, EI en tykkää ja räppäri huligaani mielestäni vaikka oma laatuinen ääni,, ei tota ei oikeen kuulosta hyvältä mulla paras biisi the blacker the berry
2/16, 13%
Not my thing but I will give it a 2 for the music.
Didn't have the patience to finish.
not my thing, noisy
pasa
Maybe I’m just ‘an old’ but there was nothing lyrically here that stopped me in my tracks. Beats and hooks were all fine, but not my style of rap I guess. Feel like this record insists upon itself.
Generally don't know anything like enough about the genre to properly appreciate the album, but not my bag. Good to listen to something different though. Stand-out tracks: King Kunta, How Much a Dollar Cost, i.
Not an album that would be in my usual listening arsenal…but I’ve enjoyed an occasional foray into rap from time to time, so I was looking forward to this. In the first half of the album, it seemed a little scattered and had such a spread of eclectic voices that weren’t so melodious, I struggled to get into the album. I didn’t think I was too much of a prude or such a white guy, but I found times where I couldn’t quite enjoy the album as I’m sure it was intended. I struggled to understand the need to pepper in a slew of N-bombs. That said, “Complexion (A Zulu Love)” and the “Blacker the Berry” stood out as a deeper songs that stand to be repeated. “i” was upbeat and dancy, then took a sharp serious turn, again catching my attention and making me think a bit more. “Mortal Man” was another soul searcher of a song, worth the almost 10 minutes of listening. Overall, I enjoyed trying to expand my musical pallet with this album. There are some catchy songs that could find their way onto a party or wedding playlist to get the party rolling and others that made me think about the world and the racism that sadly exists even in 2022.
Genre defining, layered, experimental, blah blah. All these labels feel right for this album, and I especially like the jazz influence here, but it all adds up to way less than the sum of its parts for me. Big part of that is that I don't care for Kendrick's voice or rapping style.
I found this hard work TBH. Not really my bag
This was terribly boring. While the music was mediocre, even if interesting for a few songs, the lyrics were all over the place. I also don't get songs that are just swearwords and n-words stringed together.
Hum drum rap offer. Repetitive chorus line. Pretty boring.
Not for me
I've tried and tried to get into his music given the popularly but I can't. Given it 2 stars for King Kunta...
I liked it better when i first listened to it. The hype when this album came out, made it sound like Kendrick was the new JayZ. I guess my exceptions tainted that listen through. I'm still not sure if I understand the hype. When he dabbles in jazz he completely loses me. I guess I'm stuck on late 90s early 2000s rap singles.
It's simply not for me. I just don't like this kind of music, no matter how much I listen to it. I can recognize that there is some real musical talent here, but it's just an absolute slog to get through.
Hip hop. Como todo el hip hop
It's probably a compliment to young Kendrick but this is modern jazz. It just aimlessly babbles along without even a hint of a melody, hook line or chorus. I don't know how it could be anything other than background music, you can't actively listen to it. Meh, I don't hate it so that's a bonus.
Otro más de música racial, pero del siglo XXI. No me dice nada
Stand out track - i
Disappointed
Eh, not really my thing. I still tried to listen with an open mind but just didn't enjoy it. I do appreciate that there was more diversity of musical styles than expected. 2 stars.
Just really not my thibg
1-2
The superbole, hype and gushing praise for this album is utterly lost on me. I've tried listening to it several times. I just don't get it. Sure, there's a couple of tracks on here that I've found myself tapping my foot to, and I can tell that it is excellently produced... But I just don't get it. It doesn't click. It may well be pearls before swine, but I just can't take this above a 2 based on the fact that while I didn't enjoy it in any meaningful way, I would not actively go out of my way to turn any given track of it off.
This band is not my styl.
Wtf?! I was really excited to listen to this album because I've never listened to any Kendrick Lamar music but always heard he's great. But this...The strange musical arrangements, the collaborations with other artists that just didn't sound good, the overuse of cuss words just sounded stupid, the repetitive lyrics at times, the different voices he'd use including one that sounded like he rapped a whole song while going through puberty! Fucking weird. I didn't enjoy it much and it was underwhelming. I appreciated the creativity and uniqueness though.
ehhh, 1st album is better
I regret my life choices leading up to this. Having said that, I'm giving it an extra star for the fact that I recognize that this is progressive stuff, and that it's very important music for some demographics. Just not for me.
meh. hard to listen to.
Not for me. I can appreciate some of the musical skill on display, but it was a slog to get through it.
2/5 not my cup of hip hop tea
Nicht meins!
Sehr explizit und sehr gangsta
I am not a rap or hiphop person. And if I was going to get into it, I wouldn't start with this album. Almost every song I wanted to change to something else but to remind myself that I need to finish it. It's obviously well crafted, and I like the jazz backdrop to the songs. Lamar clearly understands music history and worked it into the album. But I just really don't like it. I don't tend to like heavily processed things in general, let alone when it's done in a genre I don't care for. There were areas where I couldn't even understand the choice, with weird awkward voices as the singer. I want to give it 1 star, because I REALLY don't like this album. But it's really just so outside of my wheelhouse there was no way I was going to find much in the album. But it's very well crafted, and I like the jazzy backdrop enough to at least avoid giving it 1 star.
Forgettable.
the music is very very smooth like a milkshake, but the lyrics are painfully dull to listen to.
Some tracks have great backing, some tracks have great rapping, but all in all not my cup of tea.
Not my cup of tea
Not my thing
Not my cup of tea, could barley listen to the album all the way through but I think the albums story is good. Love how each song bleeds into the next
Talented, but not my thing
ik its a classic but i dont vibe except the hits...
Honestly a little better than I thought, but just wasn't my kind of music.
Yeah not a fan
Well, it´s not my thing, I guess. I am still enjoying more of a 90s rap (hip hop). However I really liked some the songs (2nd part is definetely better), the combination of different genres worked very well and lyrics were also sometimes quite interesting. Nevertheless most of the time I was simply bored, maybe the fact, that I don´t live in the US, has also some influence.
Ligt vast aan mij maar ik snap echt niet waarom dit zo overladen wordt met euforische recensies. Ik kan hier heel weinig mee.
Poewee zeg, wat een gejank. Heel nerveus werd ik ervan.
I couldn't listen to all of the songs all the way through. I understand swearing is a part of certain genres/ albums, but it's hard for me to listen to when there's a large quantity of it. To be honest there isn't a lot of rap that catches my attention. However, I did like the jazz influence in this album and listening to some of the themes in the lyrics. If rap was more of my cup of tea, I could see myself liking this more. I liked King Kunta and These Walls in this album.
Plutôt sympa mais pas mon style de musique.
2/5
Nope
Incorporates more jazz influence than I would've expected. Slightly repetitive? Heard "40 acres and a mule" on at least 3 tracks.
There's so much to process here. The album is has so much going for it. However, when I rate it by my standard system, I'll probably not listen to it more than once a year. The last song was just too long. I'm not sure of the purpose.
Nope
Aight. Easy to listen to. Kind of white stripes esque
It's obviously good but I'm not into it.
Not really into it.
@@½. Just can't deal with this crap anymore. Nothing like his first album, but a couple of nice joints.
Kannte ihn nur von seinem Beitrag auf einem The Weeknd-Album. Yo-nigger-Compton-conflicted-streets-hood-irgendwelche Gangs-Wortspiel||repeat Das ist so ermüdend und irrelevant (und musikalisch nur so leidlich interessant), dass ich beim 10. Song ausmachen musste. Ich werde den Eindruck nicht los, dass ihm in Europa eine so hohe Bedeutung bei gemessen wird, weil er wegen seiner gesellschaftspolitischen Relevanz in den USA von der hiesigen Journaille über den grünen Klee gelobt wird. Aber rappen kann er wie kaum ein zweiter.
Ei tarvinnut kahdesti kuunnella, aika skeidaa
Not my cuppa tea
Horrível
If hell exists and I end up there no doubt this will be played on a loop. If I could give 0 stars I would. I won't pretend I heard this through. Half the first track and dipping into 3 or 4 more was enough. It just saddens me that people do actually enjoy this offensive noise.
not for me
Nope, no thanks,
I'm of an age where hearing the n-word makes me extremely uncomfortable - I always have - and the first 30 seconds of this album turned me off the whole thing. Obviously this album was not meant for me. If it was meant for you then more power to you
not for me
This album is terrible. Musically dull (at best) with endless truly horrible language (couldn't call the rap stuff lyrics). Bad, bad, offensive and bad.
23/05/2026 This is just the typical mumble rap that seems to be stupidly popular today. Give me some AI and let me write some mumble lyrics and watch me be just as successful. It's crazy all the things we can apparently get away with promoting, the racism, misogyny, gun crime, murder. Why is this guy and genre so popular and successful?! Spotify listeners: 72 million
Lazy lyrics, awful. No redeeming qualities whatsoever.
Casi todas las canciones me han sonado igual. No he conectado con ninguna. Este álbum me ha servido para confirmar que no me gusta nada este género en general. 3.48/10
This album was a masterclass in how tastes differ... the critical acclaim for this is off the charts, on RYM this is rated higher than all of the unbelievable legendary masterpieces by The Beatles, Pink Floyd, Black Sabbath, ... So I really really tried to get into it, although it felt wrong from the beginning. At the end I can say, I do acknowledge the great production, but that's where my appreciation ends. Nope, it's not for me. 1/5 very weak
Tried but couldn’t make it through the album.
I could start with “ hip hops not my thing but I respect the artist” but no not this time. It’s just a fucking shit album, absolute dog shit. Why do these people keep trying to re write Straight outta Compton?
such a mess omg
Too vulgar
It has its audience but that doesn’t include me. Horrible! 1
I got this album on my birthday and the best gift I could give myself is to choose something else to listen to today. (I swapped this out for House of Music by Tony! Toni! Toné!)
Absolutely shit from start to finish, if only no stars was a possibility. Terrible music, worse lyrics, not a single redeeming feature. My life has been made worse by listening to this crap.
I just don't get it.
I find this type of rap boring and unimaginative, bitch this and mutherf*#ker that. It's time to grow up.
Pro’s - it’s a while since I had an American c(rap) album on here. Con’s - still hate it Or should that be the other way round? 1/5 23/3/26
I've heard that Lamar's stuff is legendary, important, poetic, etc. But as an old white man in rural America, it just doesn't resonate with me. I'd rather read a book about the plight of black Americans than listen to this. I hope it reaches its intended audience, and judging from its popularity, it does.
Not my thing, I'm too old!!
Absolutely not my style. Was difficult to listen to.
говно, залупа
Sounds weird but also kinda cool, but this it not for me
Hated it. I’ve never heard so many uses of the word “nigga”, “pussy”, “dick”… you get the idea.
Not my cup of tea. There were very few things I actually enjoyed.
Can’t stand newer Kendrick
This album has too much language and corse lyrics for me.
These days, I really dont for this type of language in the music I listen to. Lemar, you are clearly very talented, but this will never for for me
I guess I am out of touch...
Whatever it is... it isn't for me.
Este é o melhor álbum de todos os tempos de acordo com o site Rate Your Music. O que dizer da obra de Bob Dylan, Beatles, Zappa, Genesis, The Who, Pink Floyd, David Bowie, Miles Davis, Keith Jarrett, John Coltrane, Jethro Tull, Elton John, Yes, King Crimson, Supertramp, New Young, Peter Gabriel, Gentle Giant, Rush ou Van der Graaf Generator?
Shit
It’s just bad.
It's got some nice instrumentation here and there, but the rapping's often too fast to pick up what's being put down. What I could grab onto didn't resonate, so I'm obviously not the intended audience. Its general length, the tired interlude/monologue formula, and the longwinded finale slide it over from a 2 to a 1 for me.
if my book was 10001 albums this still would not be in it. nothing that I haven't heard before. nothing original that stands out. lucky to get 1*
I just don’t think I’ll ever like this genre
Made it through two minutes before I couldn't take any more. . .
lord no
Not interested in hip hop. Awful genre. Don't even know why this is on here. Not wasting my time on this. Rating it a 1 just to hate. #NotRealMusic
Again and again and again....... really enjoyed the music. Its the lyrics I have issues with. Not good.
Crap
Too much
Nicht meine Musikrichtung 1/5
no likey
Not for me
This right here is why people homeschool!
I can't listen to this when the lyrics are so crude and vile. The over the top vulgarity has zero appeal.
DNF. This was a drag just to get through a minute of each song before I allowed myself to skip. I think I just don't like hip hop.
Muck
I skipped almost every song on this record due to his use of the "n" word. Be better Lamar!
noisy
First time listening, sorry I didn’t find anything impressive. I don’t like hip hop/rap but I really appreciate MBDTF, this one no, he seemed to have too much ego to express and I would not like to accept that.
I'm sure this album is important to many people. I'm not one of them. If I could make out the words rapped I think I might enjoy trying to decipher all the embedded codes, references, and in jokes contained within them. All I came away with from my one listen was a reference to The A-Team's Mr. T: I pity the poor fool! My experience was akin to sitting in a movie theater watching a movie with a mostly innocuous soundtrack while a neighboring movie patron refuses to shut up throughout the entire film. One listen was plenty for me.
Crap
I couldn't care less about it. I understand the intention of the album, the interest on making some of its songs, but I just don't like this kind of music. So, I value the artistic intention of this album, but it's not done in a way I can value or like. I would give it two stars because of the jazz incursions and some experimentation but... am I really liking the way it's done? Not because you have something in mind or you want to do something deep means you end up doing it. I'm not saying it isn't any of those things, but, for me, a person who doesn't like hip-hop at all, this album is just as the rest. It may have something I like a little but, overall, it's an album of a kind of music I don't like. And it really is not interesting for me, anyway. Do it the right way and, then, talk to me. But not with this album.
Is this good? Not in my eyes, but maybe I am just ignorant regarding Rap and Hip Hop.
I didn't like this at all
I began listening to listen and stopped by the third track. 1/5
I don’t get it. Shrug.
sounds like shit to me :)
One of the highest regarded albums that I just don’t like
It's hard to listen to an album about Black artists negotiating co-optation within rich white power structures without thinking about how Lamar has since enthusiastically allowed himself to be co-opted.
Not my kind but ok
Bit of a struggle
Some powerful songs and lyrics especially the last song. However it's not an album that stuck with me.
Hoo boy. Already? It’s only been a month or so since I re-listened to Good Kid, m.A.A.d City through this list, and now I guess it’s time for ol’ TPAB to get a reappraisal – an album I have long considered to be the worst ever made. Guess there’s nothing left for me to do but hit play It’s just so fucking long, dude. Do I really need to listen to this? Alright, here goes. Yeah, it’s still shit. Admittedly better than what I recall this being, but it still sucks mondo dick. Devoid of any meaning, torturously long, shit vocals with an ending that completely trivialises whatever merit the preceding tracks had. Is this truly the worst album ever made? Probably not, but you could torture me with this thing regardless. “King Kunta” has an alright flow, even if the lyrics make my eyes roll into the back of my skull. I don’t like the instrumental overall – there's way too much going on, but it has some good components. The guitar outro isn’t bad. “u” isn’t half bad. Kendrick's vocals toe the line between being unique an immensely annoying, yet I can acknowledge the merit. I love me a good “in shambles” tune. The song is stretched out to oblivion like all of the-okay, okay. I’m trying to be optimistic. Yeah, I can’t be optimistic. The middle of this album through to the end is just nothing. ~5 minute song after ~5 minute song, paired with completely vapid songwriting and droll, painfully boring instrumentals. On m.A.A.d City I could at least feel the passion of Kendrick, with there being some adept songwriting and competent instrumentals. With this album, I can’t help but feel like he’s phoned it in. There isn’t even a coherent theme/story to this album, at least from what I've picked up along the way. I don’t have the edition of the book which includes this album, but even if I did, I wouldn’t think of consulting it. Cultural phenomenon, left an indelible mark on hip-hop, yadda yadda. This is a worthwhile inclusion.
Yet another Hip-Hop / Rap album. Wikipedia says the genre is Experimental Hip-Hop / Progressive Rap / Conscious Hip-Hop / Jazz Rap / G-Funk / Neo Soul which seems to be a long way of saying pretentious C-Rap.
i dont really like rap so this albums are just not for me, i cannot rate them because i dont like any of the rap songs
Great, more hip-hop (c)rap. I really need more of that in my life.
I just cant stand Kendrick. Don't get me wrong, I love Hip Hop but this is just a messy mix of... nothingness. I really really don't get the appeal, and I have tried. Its pop hip hop.
One of the blandest things I have ever heard.
Did not like this at all
Nope
I've never been a Kendrick fan. I just don't like his approach and style much. I appreciate the talent and the approach but I prefer other rap and hip-hop
This is no Hip Hop, this is noise...
Modern hip hop is shite.
Great rhythms & clearly very clever, but only managed 2/3 of it before I gave up; this style of music just doesn't do it for me I'm afraid. And not that I'm sensitive in any way, but just how many songs do you need to write with the words m*therf*cker & n*gger in it?!
Jesus that's bad
Absolute rubbish
That was terrible.
Fuck off.
I can’t believe anyone would listen to this twice
Like the jazziness and some of the beats. Hate the language/content. Degenerate. Way too long. Exhausting. I can see why people might like it, but I don't. Makes me sad that this is what so many people resonate with.
NOPE.
Why can't I give 0?
This is #day337 of my #1001albumsyoumusthearbeforeyoudie challenge, and… as I might have said a couple of times before in the hip-hop entries on this list, post-2005 rap (after my teenage years) is just out of my, what I like to call, sentimental memory. It doesn't move me. I don't relate to it. It all sounds plastic to me. As for this artist... despite this being my second record of his, I still don't get the hype. No matter what people say about him being a storytelling genius or whatever, I just don't care. Because it doesn't work for me. There were one or two moments across the five or six tracks, which I was able to withstand, that caught my attention (some of that jazz rap interplay), but otherwise, no, there's no way I'm putting this on again. The delivery and flow are particularly annoying. Welcome to the club of 1 out of 5, I guess. Looking forward to #day338.
Nicht mein Stil
Can’t find any redeeming features.
Not for me.
To Pimp a Butterfly is an impressively produced and engineered album, showcasing a rich tapestry of sounds, beats, and musical experimentation. The instrumentation is layered and creative, blending elements of jazz, funk, and soul in a way that clearly demonstrates artistic ambition and technical skill. However, I personally struggled to connect with the lyrics and the narrative themes explored throughout the album. The stories and messages, while clearly meaningful to many, didn’t resonate with me—perhaps hip-hop simply isn’t a genre that clicks for me. Despite giving it a full 24 hours, I found the listening experience quite difficult, and ultimately, I didn’t enjoy the album as a whole. Favourite track: Wesley’s Theory was a strong opener, and For Free? stood out for its energy and originality. Least favourite: Most of the remaining tracks didn’t land with me. Album artwork: A fairly standard hip-hop cover—bold and in-your-face, fitting for the genre but not particularly distinctive to my eye.
Dear Kendrick, Why have you collaborated with so many producers and musicians on every track? Were you chasing some kind of world record? What bits did you actually do? Were you also chasing a world record on how many times you can say naughty words on one album? I reckon you’ve won that one at least. All seems so provocative. Well you’ve provoked me into dishing out one lovely shiny gold star for your troubles.
This is scattergun rubbish. Too many ideas, such as a sort of freeform jazz number with a crap rap, then there would be some sort of rap ballad. The only song of note was called Mr Kunty or some attention grabbing nonsense like that. Very disappointing for Kendrick, I expected better from one of the superstars of this genre.
I've been repulsed by every single Kendrick Lamar song I've ever had the misfortune of hearing, and this is no exception.
ik probeer het, echt waar, geloof me... maar het lukt me niet...
Bless my ears, this was 𝗡𝗢𝗧 the "Greatest of All Time." It was so abysmally bad that comparing it to "Abbey Road" made me audibly wheeze. Although "To Pimp A Butterfly" is meant to be social commentary, I was unable to decipher the commentary. The album offends me in more than one way: 1. Most of the verses are incredibly misogynist ("At first, I did love you / But now I just wanna fuck") and degrade women to objects, which is a common occurrence in rap music. So much for being 'progressive.' 😛 2. The n-word is also thrown around like fireworks, which would be excusable if it was used for social commentary, but it's so randomly sandwiched b/w verses that it's hard to argue that it's here for commentary value. Kendrick even invited Dr. Dre, who composed the famous misogynist anthem "Bitches Ain't Shit" in 1992, to contribute to the album. To be frank, the sampled works were the best part of the album. All in all, "To Pimp A Butterfly" was vulgar, obnoxious, and barbaric with no redeeming qualities. It is an album that only white teenagers and self-proclaimed music elites claim to enjoy.
Too produce not an album I would put in my top 1000
no
not a fan
Meh.
In my opinion, this just sucks. Repetitive and juvenile. It's like he got the lyrics off of a jr high student's peechee. Yes, I know I'm dating myself. Like eating overcooked vegetables as a kid, I wanted to get up and leave the table. But I stuck it out.
что похабный высер делает в этом списке?.. звенящая пошлость, лишенная музыкальности. наверное можно было насчитать около 5000 произнесенных слов "фак" и "щит", А БОЛЬШЕ ТУТ НИЧЕГО И НЕТ для детей пубертатного возраста круто, а я физически ощущала деградацию во время прослушивания. на моменте сэмла из женских стонов было тяжелее всего, я прошла нигерскую войну: "Я ощущаю твою власть, когда сочится влага. В тебе лежит сокровище. Если бы эти стены могли говорить...Я люблю оказываться внутри, я люблю оказываться внутри." ЭТО ТОЧНО ТО, ЧТО ДОЛЖНО НАЗЫВАТЬСЯ 1001 ЛУЧШИМ АЛБОМОМ?)))) можно посвятить песню ебле и это будет здорово, но он не группа бладхаунд генг, так что он поел говна а еще куча сексизма и ненависти к людям в целом, чел просто вывалил все свои пиздострадания (мусора заебали, женщина не дала секс, я черный, я торч о боже как тяжело женщина меня бросила), это все звучит жалко (pathetic) ок отбросим текста, но это даже не качает. очередной альбом с таким necessary нигер репчиком, до которого есть дело только неграм :))
go away
Absolute shite
Crap
Previously rated: good kid, m.A.A.d city (2/5) ******************************* Deep Thoughts by Kendrick Lamar. Mind-numbing, intelligence insulting, racist garbage by some mile-a-minute rapper who fashions himself some enlightened prophet of his generation, almost on Kanye West's level. Even if I liked the music, I couldn't sing/rap along because of the multitude of n-words in this thing. And the album cover reinforces a bunch of negative stereotypes. I think I was too generous to his first album. Lemme axe you dis, do I have to listen to another one of this moron's albums? Please, no. Oh, also, his Super Bowl halftime show sucked.
ja, album gehört - nein, für mich kein highlight.
Bien, das ist nicht mein Rap. Zuviel jazzige und andere Elemente.
Truly one of the worst things I've ever listened to. I tried to scroll through the tracks and see if I could find something on there but the dissonance of some of the music and the way it was produced was really not my thing. That mixed in with the offensive wanna-be-cool-by-using-crass-language trash lyrics that seems to be most rap music makes it just plain bad. When good kid, m.A.A.d city was on the list I rated it 3, and said "Interesting listen. I very much went into it expecting to hate it." and I was really hoping I would go into this with it being an interesting listen, but unfortunately it was just crass and horrible. I hope there's no more Kendrik Lamar albums on this list for a while as I might start skipping them entirely. Would rate it 0 if I could
Not for me. I appreciate the artistry, but, no thanks.
Awful racist n word all time
no thanks
awful
Another hip hop album. As so often, I gave it a quick listen. Nothing that interested me. And so I finished it quickly. 1/5
Meh
Rap, 2015 -> 1
This ain't for me.
offensive tripe
0/10 Tranny voice, puked turd overall
Very poor writing
Not my thing
Artiste inconnu. Hip-Hop, 18eme album =>1/5
An album so bad it proves his fans are morons
Rap con lievi influenze soul.
Nah, bit yawn and a bit off tempo for me.
Não é meu ritmo predileto, mas a visão que temos de rap no Brasil é um pouco diferente da visão norte-americana. E vai por mim, apesar da ótima produção desse disco, prefiro a versão tupiniquim. Além disso, senti que quiseram fazer uma coisa tipo Daft Punk na construção geral do disco.
Not my taste
Not for me. 1/5
yeahhh, not my thing
Not a fan of shitty musica sorry
Not for me, sounds complex and well produced it’s just not my thing
Nope
Garbage
Not my thing
Mais um disco de rap que se prolonga irritantemente. E ao "dividir" o disco com pausa de metal não consegui melhorar minha experiência.

Nicht meine Richtung
Tosh. And I consider myself a fan of hiphop
Not my cup of tea, but I’m sure it’ll appeal to someone out there
I tried this album years ago when it came out. I didn't like it then, I don't like it now. It teeters between a 2 and a 1 for me cause its creative and the skits are cool and all but there are just some parts that make me feel like someone is rubbing my hair in the wrong direction. Wish I could tell you why...
Die Musik und die Stimme des Künstlers sprechen mich weder in Person oder Stil an. Zudem finde ich die häufige Verwendung von F- und N-Worten störend und unsinnig. Auch die Ausführungen über Söhne, die ihre Mutter lieben, empfinde ich nicht als ätzend wen will er beleidigen?
Couldn't get through it. And that makes me feel old and out of touch...
I think this is about the 15th KL album that has appeared as a recommendation to me on here and to be honest it's the first one I listened to because... ANOTHER RAP INDUSTRY RAP ALBUM PRODUCT But I opened my mind up and prepared to be delighted by the lack of cliche and ground breaking originality that this vital modern artist would provide... Wasted my time again didn't I? Swearing, N-Words, boasting, P-Funk rip offs. Man where is the innovation in Hip-Hop? Again, this is wasted on me, just like hair-metal and country there's a market for it and I am not the market. I'm going to listen to The Isleys now until I feel better. Fuck.
non lo capisco nonostante gli sforzi. sorry
shit
No my style, plus too much profanity and mysoginy.
No thanks ! 1*
Day148 - could be a good instrumental album
All explicit
Not for me
Didn't enjoy at all.
No thank you
Many tracks started with interesting groves, but then they changed. I had to speed run through this album starting with track 2—basically I couldn't stand and of it. This album wasn't for me.
¿Pero qué broma es ésta? Muy malo.
Fucking hell. Some of this sounds like it’s been written with irritating me specifically in mind. I’m sure this is ‘great’ but I tried every track and I just absolutely hate it. Best of luck to Kendrick.
This is not for me.
Awesome thanks
So this is just not for me. It's not that it's bad, but rap is just a genre I can't connect with.
Hip Hop und Rap ist keine hörenswerte Form der Musik für mich. Wohl auch, weil ich den Texten sprachlich nicht folgen kann und die Musik als reine Rhythmusmaschine zur Begleitung verstehe.
not a fan
the vocals and lyrics are not it i dont like hip hop i couldnt even listen to the whole album (surprised i even got through 6 songs) shite it would be a good album without the vocals
Just not my type of music on any level
Not a fan. I enjoyed the background instruments that's about it
I wanted to love it. Instead o found it frustrating and disjointed. It’s not for me
Gave it a few songs, conclusion - boring
It’s just not very good, not really a single banger on the whole album and it’s 1 hours 20 min long.
Oh no
horrible
This is horrible
Terrible
Awful garbage
It's like a challenging abstract painting in which the noise is in the eye of the beholder. For me, it's ugly, repellant music. Putting it in the context of the lives and tastes of another demographic, it could be meaningful. My rating is for me, though. The cover looks like January 6th.
Hyvä tuotanto, mut eih, ihan paskaa 1.5/5
There's not a single rap album on this planet that needs to be 80 minutes long. I didn't like anything about this one.
Some of the music is ok; kind of funky or jazzy. The lyrics are another story. I think I heard the n word times in this album than I have my whole life! Also, he sounds like Tommy Davidson when he is acting like a little kid.
Really?
Not my style, and just didn’t enjoy it. But I gave it a try.
Nö! Keine Chance bei mir. Das ist definitiv keine Musik!
Very artistically, well written but too much for me- didn't enjoy it as much as I would have liked.
Not for me.
Next.
Disgusting!!
He intentado escucharlo de principio a fin pero me ha sido imposible, sin lógicamente desmerecer no es mi estilo musical.
I do not like music that has disrespectful language
who knew so much rhymed w Muthafuckers, Ho's, Bitches, Niggahs...
Ruined my Spotify algorithm Horrible
After a few good intros that leave you wanting more - the wish is unfortunately never fulfilled - boring beats and the same staccato chanting follow. Vocally nothing special either.
Not for me. Definitely not my normal genre choice and I'm not a fan of explicit language - but - I did find the music and lyrics more interesting after taking the extra time to read about each tune and what it meant to the artist.
Nicht mein Geschmack
Not for me
Was this 2015? Was this #19 Greatest of all time according to a rock magazine? It's not bad and I like parts of it but it's not innovative or original or groundbreaking at all. Anyone who thinks that hasn't listened to much music. Sad we are consumed by the 'New' without reference to what's already been. I hear Prince, a bit of Eminem and even Trip-Hop vibes. Like I say, I like it but it's derivative.
Oh Please. Really?
I've heard a lot about Kendrick but I'm not really a fan of rap. First song is super lame, I really really thought this would be different, but it's just about wanting to fuck. Second song he raps about his dick?
Not my kind of music I did like one of the songs though. But I will never listen again.
Not a fan, at all.
