In this installment of "Frownland stalls until he finalizes his actual list"...
Songs I Love From Albums I Don't

J.I.D. - Never

J.I.D.'s on the come up and that dude can seriously spit. The Never Story has some good tracks and a couple of straight skippers, but none of them match the dark sound on this track. His voice kind of reminds me of someone, not sure who...


Kendrick Lamar - DNA

DAMN. is trash and so are you for thinking otherwise, but this track goes hard as ****. You know, I probably wouldn't be so hard on DAMN. if it didn't kick off with a dick tease like this track. Don't set the stage for something great and lead into a whimper. Humble's aight but it isn't enough to make up for the rest.

I covered this already.

I'm sorry, I don't take bull**** opinions seriously. Can you try again, only with the correct opinion - something like "DAMN. was sick, I'm growing into it because I have some taste in music and I don't know why I've spent so much time with my head completely lodged up my own ass" would be perfectly acceptable. Thanks.

even as a kendrick fanboy i can assure you that DAMN. was indeed nothing special

if it somebody else released it i reckon it would go down as a run of the mill mainstream hip hop project, but since it was kendrick everyone has a hard on for it.

As someone who doesn't identify as a Kendrick fanboy, I can assure you that everything you just said is wrong. Lol.
