It's pretty good. I'm still partial to Section 80, Damn, GKMC, and TPABF. He's definitely getting older, though, and he's choosing to let his music grow older with him. Kendrick has almost spent as much of his life being a famous musician than he has not. 2008 was 16 years ago and he's 37 now. It's interesting seeing him shift into topics about being a father and husband.
Like Eminem is still doing the same shtick at 52 as he was when he was 25 (shitty attitude and views included). It's really easy to fall into that trap of success, especially for musicians. Because Kendrick is more self aware, he's going to put out albums where each track is high quality.
I feel the same way in that those other than damn are my favorite albums but man this one is tuff, i haven’t liked a kendrick album this much since untitled unmastered. i like introspective kenny but sometimes i need a lil something with it
