New Kendrick Album 'GNX' FULL BREAKDOWN

[@samsonnicholas576]

With that GNX car posted on his burner account in March, that means he would’ve had to have planned out the beef, preview the victory lap song in Not Like Us which is preparing the world for ‘West Coast Kendrick’, the pop out promo was on the license plate of a GNX, the actual pop out had strong west coast ties on top of that. Scary dedication and planning.

[@BitoyV3]

I guess you could say Kendrick was... Overly Dedicated. 😂

[@DatBeautifulNightmare]

The Art of War Sun Tzu.. 😂😂 Kendrick has probably read all 6 books.. 😅

[@hearanecho]

Rocnation is behind it all

[@Omar04x]

As he said in GNX, "I'm prophetic"

[@Omar04x]

As he said in GNX, "I'm prophetic"

[@kiaxzim]

this is such a w album, i feel like people forget that hip-hop isn't just upbeat but also rappers telling us powerful stories through music. w video. 🔥

[@AbiyahBanYasharahla]

Returning to form

[@RileyFreeman_247]

Exactly it’s true essence. They just want “bars” without substance.

[@kiaxzim]

MUSTARDDDD🗣🔥

[@dfagan8738]

That’s gonna go off at the superbowl with a live band

[@serfranklin6022]

I must have listened to it 5 times already, i've lost count. No skips for me 🔥

[@RichieRich1989]

Same

[@musicalessence7981]

The fact that taylor swift sounds like sza to you is kinda crazy to me

[@therealjohnwick4010]

I was a lil unsure when I first heard it but once it played out I was like nah this is sza

[@blackpanda7298]

It’s fkn diabolical 😮.

[@firzaassakha2627]

wait... Are you for real?

[@jonathancortes9005]

are people not capable of expressing things without the words wild crazy or insane? limited ass vocabulary mfs

[@THEDRUNKENANGELE]

Kendrick Lamar's project "GNX" feels like his own version of *Killuminati: The 7-Day Theory*, a modern-day homage to Tupac's raw and unfiltered love letter to the streets of hip-hop. Pac’s original was a declaration, a farewell drenched in vulnerability and defiance-a piece of his soul poured out before he was poised to ascend to even greater heights as an artist. Similarly, Kendrick’s work reverberates like a deeply personal message, etched in the DNA of West Coast hip-hop. It’s more than an album; it’s a canvas of gritty stories and heartfelt truths, woven with the spirit of Compton’s streets. The beats echo with the weight of history, every lyric sharpened by the struggle and resilience of his community. You can feel the smoke of the block, the sun setting over Los Angeles, and the weight of generational pain and pride in his cadence. This is Kendrick standing at the crossroads of legacy and innovation, pouring out his soul not just as a tribute to what came before, but as a promise to carry the torch forward. Like Pac, he’s not just writing bars-he’s writing love letters to the streets, cementing his place in the lineage of West Coast greats.

[@ReekoGreeko]

oh my god shut the fuck up its music just listen

[@gradydunnicanjr9132]

Big Facts, this is a dedication album for Pac and Nipsey as well. He about to drop a deluxe or a Part 2 of GNX

[@ChrisG-ez3vs]

Feel that shit

[@kristiyan95]

Btw the GNX is the car that drove Kendrick home after being born. It symbolises rarity and uniqueness among other things.

[@okamifang4059]

Oh dang 😯

[@bennytsb5719]

Proof?

[@TwigGenetics]

the car was also only made in the black color way

[@Connor-me]

@@TwigGeneticsits not a fucking shoe

[@lol-em6bj]

it also represents how kendrick was slept on kinda. the c4 corvette was more acclaimed than the gnx upon release, but now we see the gnx sells for more and was found to have way better performance

[@MrBadavidson9]

This is the first video I’ve seen where they’ve mentioned the fact that the heart series has never been on a project and always a precursor so I’m glad someone else caught that

[@sparrowcf]

Tf you mean this was the best rollout, THERE WAS NO ROLLOUT

[@blacksheep5619]

It was . The drake beef was the beginning of the rollout .

[@blacksheep5619]

It’s literally a long spaced out rollout …

[@ramtailthebattlertr2066]

There was a rollout, we just didn't know it was a rollout. Just like Tyler, he was setting up Chromakopia months before I was even announced

[@unknowninfinite8081]

At first I shared the same sentiment, but it actually was a rollout. He previewed Squabble Up at the beginning of the Not Like Us album.

[@AidenAlien]

It’s literally not a rollout if an album wasn’t announced

[@IAmAboriginal-ov1vw]

Masterpiece to say the least. His message has been received.

[@yingkouzen]

The 🐐has spoken 🔥🔥🔥

[@Don1DJReepo]

Talking about working overtime... yeah, KDot will have you doing that. We're ready!!!!!!!!!

[@gorgeousgirl4005]

KDot always wins and is always calculating. I feel like this is preview of what's to come. After Cole and Aubrey drop Kendrick will drop the main event

[@CordajeRushing]

That pick a side, line on Wacced out Murals could be aimed at both 50 and the Game etc. as they stayed neutral yet clearly leaning toward's Drake which is kinda ironic knowing Game and 50's history with each other

[@yng514]

I was looking at 50 weird asf for his twitter behaviour

[@MPPharaoh]

@@yng514he was spiraling almost as bad as Drake lol

[@hubertdixon6107]

I think I was to jcole port Antonio and he shitted on jcole alubum drop on the same day

[@gorgeousful]

​@@hubertdixon6107 Scary, crazy, spooky, hilarious 😅

[@Inyomouthmedia]

@@hubertdixon6107 damn thats sad im a fan of both and i had no clue cole had dropped until I read this comment 😂

[@GeeNoTv19]

No one is talking bout how the snippet has two cars in it and the snippet cuts off. The deluxe is coming. This rollout is scary he coming out of nowhere like the buggy man

[@LaughandGrowandLive]

Interesting, I thought it could of meant his zodiac sign Gemini.

[@ArbieLyvias]

Boogie man?

[@unknowninfinite8081]

He even says it in Squabble Up(or one of the other songs) "double back like it's a deluxe"

[@kristiyan95]

Yup Kenny smashed it. And btw the Friday was not the random. It was 11.22. He is playing with numbers again!

[@nunezkant]

Headshots for a year. Jfk sniper headshot

[@elliot.1]

it’s jfk assassination anniversary

[@kristiyan95]

its biblical numbers

[@stonedcoldpkbeats9216]

😂 I see I’m not the only one who s33s

[@unubun]

it was also mbdtf’s 14th anniversary.

[@SamirSmith-x4x]

I love how Kendrick chose not to put his Number 1 song of the year for sure atleast the summer anthem on this album as a surprise album at that you would think he would’ve atleast had that as the lead single But for all the Kendrick haters He just showed y’all he doesn’t need drake go go #1

[@8macvar]

1:25 I appreciate you admitting that you are unemployed and not acting as though being a KZbinr is equivalent to having a real job like most ppl ...salute

[@JasonAshford-mi7jc]

Sometimes it’s what u know not what u do

[@Akirasloss]

1:28 the block is always hiring brother 😂

[@Woktoharlem]

Everybody is catching a stray on this album

[@vl2809]

Except Nas 😂

[@yaadmadness8374]

Correction, he’s not talking to a priest. He’s talking to God.

[@daimtefiti8720]

Thank you for this Video!

[@raycreer9722]

Cali for the win…🫡🔥😮‍💨💪🏾

[@1Dager3]

Listened to this album 5 times yesterday & each time 🔥🔥🔥

[@awakennow1841]

I love this album. He speaks thru his music. I believe it's a mixtape. 🔥 ❤❤

[@DatBeautifulNightmare]

He's hurt and grown.. Kendrick has a story. It flows through each track and album.

[@JaredHathaway]

this a really awesome 1 day breakdown, i got some really good insights from the pure intentions of each song and the full perspectives in each song!

[@T0mF0rd]

it kinda feels like untitled unmastered and i love that album...im really really enjoying this one!!!

[@DthCrafter77]

The album is great and all but saying that him doing absolutely nothing other than releasing 2 snippets, only 1 of a song on the album and then dropping with no announcement was a good rollout, let alone a rollout at all is top tier glaze. that's not a good rollout. Once again the album is phenomenal but Tyler brought hype to his, didn't bs, didn't waste time, and delivered while Kendrick literally just dropped unannounced. There was no hype over a rollout because nobody knew it was happening

[@satyarthsingh2276]

It's production will def go down as a staple in modern G-Funk West-Coast Rap Music, it's ratchet, gritty and has a 90s old-school "insert the cassette and ride to it" energy to this. Good old west coast hip-hop, Chronic, All Eyez on Me, Doggystyle, Makaveli type shit.

[@Balouthegreat]

Love the album, Reincarnated gave me such 2pac vibes, especially the bass flow. I’ve needed that for so long. My lady said he sounded like Eminem when he screams his lyrics on the track, I told her that’s just Em doing his best 2pac lol

[@TroubleZxHCT]

Just got a Buick the other day . Perfect timing to bump this record

[@62allamerican]

2:35 wrong there is videos on KZbin RN where the GNX smoked the lambo countach

[@medbeth9857]

I love your deep dive videos so much.

[@johnnyd2920]

bro do u reckon u put enough ads in the space of this video? i reckon you should jam more adverts in bro, not having enough adverts really sours up the decent analysis

[@mikebevill122]

I think a lot of folks are forgetting his work on the black panther album. There we're so😢 many international tones. Love it

[@Noscope420]

Best work of his since TPAB

[@Idekbru]

I was kinda thinking this album is themed as a playlist of songs/artists he would have been listening to as a kid riding in the GNX

[@humanr.e8529]

This project is him getting his thoughts out about how his year played out. He ain't about to use an official album to address no beef. The beef was a detour I think

[@aandroclesable]

The "GNX" in Buick GNX is an abbreviation of Grand National Experimental, not Grand National Excellence.

[@TalentedAndHot]

as a 31 year old i will never watch a live reaction but i will watch all of your breakdowns

[@joeraig]

This teminds me of untitled. Unmastered with bouncy west coast feel. I like it!

[@kaelthunderhoof5619]

Feels like this is the rollout. He had 2 cars in the snippet.

[@Outlaw__18]

Got a sub woofer installed in my ride will be bumpin this album hard 👌

[@StayBlessed47]

😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨

[@05.humberto]

Live reactions would be dope

[@stephenanthony5923]

dope breakdown

[@4akenarchives919]

I didn’t know he had an other instagram thank you ! When he first came out to me he sounded a lot like Wayne at first listen

[@lin5254]

this is defo peak but idk if id say it is above tyler's album rollout at all. I do prefer tyler and have a lo of bias but I also have more songs of kenny on my playlist and know all of em by heart no part 6 I just dont know if I can replay all of the songs on kenny's album compared to Tyler. we will have to wait and see how time treats these 2 classics that have been given to us by our kings

[@gregmartinez7881]

I wasn’t sure but now I am. This is what’s the dirt….

[@MilliPSN]

Naah doesn't sound like a Newfie

[@gregmartinez7881]

@ the amount of pointless shit he’s trying to connect lyric meanings too can be no one but that weirdo

[@LaughandGrowandLive]

I've always wondered if this is him too. I'm convinced.

[@JillianReeves]

reincarnated is Jackie Wilson & Billie Holiday imo

[@FlenFriendly]

Yes. Do live reactions.

[@johntorres532]

Not gonna lie, I might love chromakopia a bit more. Not saying I don't love or enjoy gnx but I really enjoy chroma but I gotta dive deep into gnx and break it down. But again it's not a bad album. And a lot will say it doesn't have much bangers but not everything has to.

[@juoonlancer7962]

Thank God you have no life because I enjoyed listening to your breakdown. Can't wait to hear what's next

[@lilpickleboy]

It came out yesterday bro😭🙏

[@shashwatvaishnav4458]

do each song breakdown in separate videos if possible please

[@brawdkast1751]

Wayne was def whining online, I wouldn't say that's a temper tantrum. Man was in his feelings, but I don't think its a diss just an observation. Kendricks saying "Damn I followed Waynes work ethic to get this opportunity and He can't even congratulate me"

[@666Vangeance]

12:09 yes he got that from Vince Staples he doesn't mention the name of his features on nun of his tracks and he has a song with both Kendrick and future

[@Emily-wk1xk]

Reincarnated reminds me of Eminems Guilty Conscience too. Kendrick has spoken before about Eminems influence on his music. Great album that will only get better with more listens

[@EpicMeatShield]

Kendrick is everything Lupe was supposed to be. Where Lupe failed was his beats.

[@sethdymondlee]

Pretty fire I heard some people don’t like it but it’s good

[@natasjafischer3844]

Stick to this format! It takes time and the viewer can tell! Too many reactions are ridiculous, all trying to have a viral moment, often filled with inaccuracy. Deep dive this after you live with it please. Keep up this unique, informative and prestigious work! I appreciate it so much!!

[@skthagreat8313]

The X in gnx stands for experimental.

[@shahpoetix]

KDOT said “ol boy” referencing Drake and how he tried to pay people in his city for dirt on him. When he talks about the people cackling and on trial, he could be talking about the diddy trial and that as people laughed at diddy’s predicament that many in the industry are on trial too from their actions.

[@rachellejones6254]

Tayler is not a part of the album… which I’m kinda glad😉… but there is a possibility that she will be with Kendrick in the Super Bowl have-time show…

[@CAPTAINsaveAhomie]

Yall mfs turned this dude into the next icespice

[@dontask3613]

GNX def just a mixtape, some of the songs have been said were only made a few days ago which is fuckin crazy because the whole album is nasty

[@nvdev901]

dope album breakdown, great video besides all the corny drake hate

[@HighiamDave]

23:50 turns inward or turns N-word? Cause it’s crazy how you chose to pronounce it like that

[@jchhch4966]

41:30 (ish)…I didn’t even know Cole dropped! Dot did this on purpose…with the “Boogieman” moniker, you KNEW he was gonna get his lick back from Cole at some point…pointless to drop a track on someone who says they won’t respond so he pulled a savage business move instead! Had the album ready while he waited for Cole to drop! 😂😂😂

[@DamuPreMe]

A GNX goes for $120K to $200K

[@jvonte07]

That beat K Dot got from PAC’s Made Ninjas off Gang Related took me back to 96’.

[@TessTickl3]

Not Like Us was posted in April, and his hometown is Compton😭

[@jaewilliams9685]

"man in the garden" is also an ode to Nas' One Mic. Also Nas selling out Madison square garden

[@EpicMeatShield]

Yeah man do live reviews

[@ChrisG-ez3vs]

Kendrick Lamar always grows on me good kid maad City I love from the start all this other ones I had to give it a second and third listen this one's no different but each time I listen it gets better and better

[@ronmakhole]

Maybe the album roll out started with him posting his new GNX

[@griffithguts6168]

We are so lucky this guy is unemployed.

[@jackietunes]

I honestly didn't heard a diss to either Wayne or Snoop, He just voice his feelings about wayne reaction to the super bowl, like with duck lips, that was intentional diss. I do wonder if that's why Snoop was not at the Pop up, because if it was, that was more diss-missing that lyrics.

[@LesandaM]

tyler did say , he the biggest in the city after kenny sooooo

[@_bl00my]

the thumbnail sending me 👁️👁️

[@S0LIDUSS]

Kendrick the goat Ong

[@jay.Are.]

That “Mustard” sounds very Lil Blood from Oakland to me

[@RaShonShannon-yf3yu]

GNX is Kendrick Lamar's official new sixth studio album, not no damn mixtape.

[@BlxckHipy]

It's crazy because I'm a Drakeo fan but for the past year I've been listening to him heavy almost like I knew Kendrick was going to use his flow and pay homage to him on the album but i follow Ralfy the plug on twitter (not calling it x) and I @'d him (he's mad a mad cool dude btw shouts out Ralfy the plug **tony yayo voice**) and he said he's open to putting an unreleased DrakeO verse on the album but I realized half way thru the 2nd-3rd listen of the album that AZchike is on the album as well and hopefully the pop out really dreaded and eased tensions between everybody

[@darklord9581]

Kendrick be going around the backrooms to tease new songs lol.

[@FrannieFibgert]

Brother do u know what a rollout is 😭

[@myonlinehandle.777]

what if “the father” on reincarnated was meant to be God.

[@mdaudi1993]

Why you forgetting him doubling down about Drake having babies?

[@damareshizukani7957]

This project feels 100 percent like a mixtape. The name of the Tape would have been overly dedicated pt2!

[@6MAJORXWEIGHT6]

Certified glazer

[@justsomeanimator]

MUSTAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAARD

[@Kappo288]

I think Kendrick gonna drop full on artistic album after this.

[@LVHampton313]

GNX is still apart of the rollout. It’s not over.

[@boodysmigles1534]

This is the craziest april fools ever

[@TamiaPeach]

No original launch was back in March when he posted his GNX. The beef was a side quest, then back to the main event. 😂

[@Hellismary]

Billie Holiday not The other chick you mentioned in Reincarnated

[@mjolninja9358]

The heart pt 6 is my favorite so far.

[@MsTwilightSpeaks]

8:04 Good call out

[@0execute]

Facts

[@AmuroUC0079]

How could the second verse be about Dinah Washington when she died in 1963 and quaaludes weren’t on the streets till the late 60s and 70s? I thought it was Billie holiday but she died earlier than Dinah and Etta? So it really is a toss up at this point

[@temx92]

Is this What's the dirt's new channel?
