kendrick made an album for the real heads 
I'll give props to him for coming out with an album like this at pretty much the peak of his popularity. Powerful stuff.

I'm not surprised at all at the reception this album is getting.
What is it maybe 2 or 3 "Bangin" beats on this joint? That's all music is about these days. And it's nothing wrong with that because times change and that's just how it is.
And I don't think people are dumb if they don't like this album.
This kind of music ain't for everybody and that's fine.

Listened to a few times and it's almost on par with GKMC. They're different projects and two different pieces of art. Like someone else has mentioned, GKMC is a short film and this is a novel. At first I thought a big chunk of the album was gonna be about black empowerment but it goes a lot deeper than that. He touches on a lot of subjects in society like religion, depression, materialism, women and politics.
I also had a feeling "I" was gonna have a big role in the album too. There was no way Kendrick was gonna release that as a single and not have that track have a meaning. It ties the whole album up at the end along with the Pac interview and the poem about the caterpillar and butterfly. It all wraps up beautifully at the end. Most of my friends who don't like this are the ones who listen to trap songs on the daily. They just can't feel this type of music so I don't blame em. To each their own, but this album is a master piece.

This could also be seen as a sequel to GKMC in a way as well.

Take all the reps man. This is too real.

He was already on 5, so I guess he answered the question if he could level more

He took a dab hit and went on another level
Love that track

I'm flat out saying this, and in no way trying to offend the opinions of previous posters, but you do not have to be black in order to enjoy this album.
A lot of the subject matter on the album touched upon by Kendrick are issues being dealt with countless others of all creeds and colors. "**** your ethnicity."

As a big time hater on first listen, it's definitely come around some. How much a dollar cost may be the best song he's ever put out IMO.
However, I feel as if the beginning still lacks, and this album isn't on the same plateau as GKMC.
