I don't know if it's slept on, but it's a great opening track to the album expressing one of the themes of the album. His creativity with his voice and sampling really shines in it.

[@Jackenack]

It's just the way it is, I'm obviously not an expert on this but it's an attempt to improve their ratings and garner a wider audience. Some people may not approve of the language used in Kendrick's songs, but it's mostly to keep it "child friendly" whatever the fuck that is supposed to mean these days. Children are easy to captivate, you can get them to watch anything. Kinda fucked up but it's the truth.

+Nd Oheri proves you're either a dumbass or you can't understand what a non comparison is because they're two completely different types of artist. Its a matter of preference, its about what you're into or in the mood for. For instance, sometimes I'm in the mood for Kendrick music and sometimes I'm in the mood for Drake's. Both are tremendous artist.

[@AaronAbernethy]

Kendrick, Jimi, Prince, Miles Davis, Michael Jackson, James Brown, Marvin Gaye… Yup. I think Kendrick is on those other artists level creatively and talent-wise. We're looking at an actual legend in the making right now.

[@user-fj8li5qb2o]

Kendrick's mannerisms that comes with his performances shows you this man depth and the level he is soaked in his craft

[@Stian9Tutorials]

Kendrick Lamar is probably the only artist that can casually use two bassists

[@kofiwater]

Actually fela kuti did im pretty sure. I think it was two basses or two baritone saxophones he had on the same stage.

[@JesusChristSaves.]

One of them is Thundercat. A known artist who works with kendrick heavily. He's got a lot of "wah" to his bass so it's needed in certain songs that only Thundercat can really pull off cause he's got his own crazy bass licks

[@hollycline2427]

The other guy plays guitar in his band

[@FlowaMan]

thee one I'm actually annoyed he has no competition

[@sanchoquixote5518]

Lamar's work sounds to me like the beginning of a whole new category of hip-hop that doesn't have a name yet. I wouldn't be surprised to hear him called a "founder" of something 10 years from now. Whether you like him or not, you've got to admit that he's very musically ambitious. He knows his roots, but he's cutting a new path. Respect. His free form timing has deep roots in jazz, and there's a little bit of experimental avant-garde art music spliced in. Those two are part of what's now considered "high culture," whereas rap is thought to be low. He's showing that they can be mixed and come out as art that is both popular and sophisticated. No small feat there. The foundation that Nicki Minaj is tearing down on one side, Kendrick Lamar is building upon on another.

[@kokujin]

Dope man. As always the most thought out and sophisticated opinion is rarely noticed (your comment ) - but hey kendrick is getting love even if people see the beauty barely past the surface

[@hashamulhaq111]

Brilliant description . Totally agree with you

[@SingerForLife3000]

+Sancho Quixote Great assessment. I've never been a big fan of rap and hip hop, but I am enamored by Kendrick's music and performance style. Perhaps this is the new creative genre that you speak of, which is very attractive to music and performance artists, and fans of all styles & categories of art. Kendrick is a Gemini, like me, & obviously highly creative. A true artist!

[@blacktopty575]

He's pimping butterflies...metaphorically on our culture, rap, etc. he's saying that it don't matter where you're from, if you want it you can get it.

[@SingerForLife3000]

***** Yup, and it's FUNK, with a twist! lol

[@mider-spanman5577]

Him mocking Drake with the way he was rapping is crazy! They've been had beef for a while! Glad it finally popped off for real!

[@chancebih]

@@KaylaMarie_I’d assume the rapper with a ghost writer part, he went smooth instead of his normal style

[@carmeldeamicis6035]

The bars at 3:10 timestamp about rappers hiring ghostwriters (bottom bunk in a 2 man cell). It kinda seems like Kendrick mimics drake’s speech/rap patterns in the way he spits those bars. & the criticism fits w the ghostwriting insults he’s lobbed at drake in the 2024 beef. So ppl are theorizing he was subtly dissing drake way back then

The album is produced in such a way that you can´t really feel the band as a whole so when you watch the live performance is a completely different experience, both awesome but you actually look forward for live performances. If Kendrick keeps this up he will be the greatest rapper of all times.

[@musicchairreviews2498]

that's cause untitled unmastered is that unmastered no mixing no after production it's as raw as it gets.

[@listerineclean343]

Looks like he's the greatest rapper of all time

[@tmrinker182]

6 years later..... Today, TPAB has a substantive, fact based argument as one of, if not THE greatest album of all time. It's surpassed my personal favorites in the past year or so. (Blueprint 1 was previously the "newest addition", so it's not an easy top 5 to crack). This album belongs next to those we historically cherish, whether its "Songs in the Key of Life" or Led Zeppelin's debut album. Or Abbey Road. And that's all while still digesting the complexities, and most honest/personal body of work that he's released, in Mr. Morale. I don't think most appreciate how fortunate we are to witness this era. He's on a short list for G.O.A.T. already, and might even have an argument at this point, after the Pulitzer. The jury is probably still out, there. Play TPAB and Mr. Morale back to back. It really feels like a great follow up when put next to one another. But damn this video makes me miss the TPAB era of Kendrick. Especially in his live show.

After tpab I've been hearing a lot of artists doing the funk/jazz/soul/hiphop fusion music, I think Kendrick might've unintentionally made a new genre of hiphop

[@diepersona]

Let's see: Anderson Paak, Childish Gambino's new album, and... what else? David Bowie's Blackstar has a slight TPAB influene tho.. There's nothing else really that sounds like TPAB, but I think that will change in the future let that album live and breathe for a while. Btw, Chance doesn't count for me he's been making this kind of sound (or a similar sound) since Acid Rap which came out 2013

Whenever I want to reassure myself that modern music is not hopeless, I go back to this video. Kendrick and his team reinvigorated the genre of hip-hop by fusing it with other historically African-American genres of the past century, improvisation and the often omittef integrity of its message. TPAB is amazing on its own but these live renditions are add a whole new layer of awesomeness.
