Untitled Unmastered (stylized as untitled unmastered.) is a compilation album by American rapper Kendrick Lamar. It was released on March 4, 2016,[1] through Top Dawg Entertainment, Aftermath Entertainment and Interscope Records. It consists of previously unreleased demos that originated during the recording of Lamar's album To Pimp a Butterfly (2015),[2] continuing that work's exploration of politically charged and philosophical themes, as well as its experimentation with free jazz, soul, avant-garde music, and funk styles. The album received widespread acclaim from critics, and it debuted atop the US Billboard 200.

Untitled 05 is legitimately a top 10 Kendrick song for me. criminally underrated. Kind of has a 90210 vibe with the long intro and then just BARS in the second half. So good

[@sparklemuffin9220]

untitled 06 is so underrated. one of my absolute favorites

[@themattpineda]

My freshman year of college, Kendrick was headlining at the March Madness music festival hosted by Coca Cola in Houston in 2016. It was a free show, and it was after he dropped untitled unmastered. My friends and I drove to Houston in the afternoon and waited 3 hours for him without having anything to drink or eat after making our way to the front. People are sitting around in the pit, then all of a sudden… Everyone hear’s the giant ass bass and wubs. People start getting up so fast and start pushing further to the front, then the band makes its way to the stage, then Kendrick starts screaming “love won’t get you high as this, drugs won’t get you high as this.” Everyone’s jumping, shouting, and moving/jumping so hard that the entire floor felt as if it was shifting back and forth in the crowd. It was such killer opener, and it was Kendrick’s first time ever performing with a live band. Untitled will forever be my favorite project of his.

[@carlosfuentes9427]

That's a crazy ass story bro. The type of shit you take with you forever. Love from 🔩ston, G. 💪

[@Dokuseiii]

this album is extremely underrated with so many gems. Untitled 6 with Cee Lo is amazing. awesome vid

[@Limi7s]

Finally some respect for untitled 06. Definitely don’t see this enough!

[@TheKaySpecial]

That’s my favorite off this album. Certified vibe.

[@Melkac]

I wouldn't say it's underrated, it's rated as much as it needs to be, really, being a collection of tracks and all. If you mean people rate it lower than it deserves...I...haven't seen that, at all.

[@marialeticiaborges7761]

I sense a bossa nova vibe in that song, amazing

[@perryknight4664]

31:49 he actually performed a mashup of untitled 02 and 08 on jimmy fallon while promoting to pimp a butterfly, and after people saw it live so many of them begged him to release the songs, but it wasn't until lebron james tweeted at him asking him to drop the unreleased songs that kendrick finally did release untitled unmastered. he also performed untitled 03 on the stephen colbert show

[@ninjasaurxd]

Untitled 5 genuinely gets me emotional, especially that hook from Anna Wise - beautiful writing. Also, there is a FANTASTIC untitled 03 performance he had on Stephen Colbert, with different lyrics/delivery - highly recommend looking that up

[@uhuh4594]

pls

[@eugenesimsart]

the “studio banter” is actually relevant if you pay attention. its all about language and the lens of perception. when we are first introduced to the “head is the answer” hook earlier in the album, its taken seriously and understood as knowledge. during the studio section, you can see kendrick having to display it as a sexual innuendo or a joke in order for the crowd to vibe with it. this is a perfect example of his transition from TPAB to Damn, switching the sound to get the general audiences attention to push his messaging, whether they interpret it correctly or not.

[@tlbjr25]

Untitled 02, and 05 are my Favorites on this project, its kinda crazy that these are throwaways

[@LightsOut25KP]

Section 80. And Overly Dedicated by Kendrick are both beautiful projects with unique sounds and some classics tracks. Being a new Kendrick fan your dad would love seeing the great early work and see his early genius. Loving the reactions guys !! Keep it up 🔥

[@nothingknown7602]

Kendricks 2nd verse on the second beat of Untitled 7 is one of the hardest verses to me, alot of ppl dont talk about it, but when kendrick in that bag kinda like the second half of the heart part 4, he untouchable.

Great reaction guys, and I'm so excited for Kevin to search this up further because Kendrick actually performed Untitled 03 on Stephen Colbert's show, and then Untitled 08 on Jimmy Fallon where he mixed in verses from Untitled 02 in it and they are both performances that are worthy of the Shivery Whivers

[@valentinecabanigii8529]

Kendrick is a jokester. Knowing he’s a Chappelle fan even exudes in some of his work, to me especially in Mr. Morale. With this album I also had that feeling of “wow, these are throwaways?”. I even consider it a parody album “He’s mocking the trap/mumble rappers on the second track with the cadence of his flow, and does it effortlessly.” The story behind track 7 where Swizz Beats and Alicia Keys son Egypt produced the second verse when he was 5 yrs old, crazy!! To have a CeeLo feature and it not make the main album?!?! Kendrick also being King Kendrick touches on government, race, self reflection, he can always get personal and deep into his feelings and what he’s going through. Amazing album, I have the vinyl with his scribbled signature on it!

For Untitled 6, Kendrick pretty much added a verse to a track called "Questions" from the Midnight Hour, an album by Ali Shaheed Muhammad (ATCQ's producer) and Adrian Younge. Definitely one of my favorite Kendrick tracks. You guys are killing it. Here are some recommendations for the hell of it: Los Stellarians - Cholo Soul. Tom Misch & Yussef Dayes - What Kinda Music.
