Unfortunately, Kanye made that so fucking hard to do. Lamar’s whispering on that album painful to listen to). He has his flaws, but I find his rapping and production to be eminently listenable (which is more I can say for Kendrick Lamar’s good kid, m.A.A.d city Sorry, fans, but it’s not my cup of tea. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not one of those people who hate Kanye for whatever reason. That wouldn’t be so much a problem, but why make the music listener jump through hoops just so they can listen to it in their preferred format? Besides, I don’t have one of those converters and it would be easier just to give me a digital downloadable copy.

That’s fine and all, and I appreciate free stuff, but the only way to get a digital copy of his music is to record it from a tape onto a computer. While I was waiting on line for the party to open, a guy gave me a free cassette with his music. There's a real yearning for artists of his stature to speak truth to power, especially at a time when the powerful seem to brazenly revel in untruths.Back in November of last year, I went to a Hackers-themed Rave/Dance party. captures how much Lamar has electrified the music community. 1 with two albums released a week apart - but Easter came and went with no follow-up LP.) The collective desire, if not greed, for another full-length LP right after DAMN. (That's less outlandish a thought than it would have been a year ago, before Frank Ocean dropped Endless and Blonde on consecutive days and Future went No. came out, there was an internet-fueled rumor that since he "died" on Good Friday, it followed that he'd be resurrected on Easter Sunday via a surprise second album. Perhaps nothing suggests his position atop hip-hop's leaderboard more than the fact that, almost as soon as DAMN. The stunning closer, "DUCKWORTH.," also burnishes his reputation as one of hip-hop's most vivid storytellers, as he tells the supposedly true tale of how his label boss, Anthony "Top Dawg" Tiffith, once came close to killing Lamar's own father 20 years ago. Lamar's wordplay has always been intricate, but he's finding new ways to push its limits: The way he super-stacks rhyming couplets rivals Eminem in his prime, while his constant modulation of voice and pacing allows him to play different characters within a single song. aims to secure his hold on that title belt. On the pre-album single " The Heart Part 4," he boldly proclaimed himself to be this era's "greatest rapper alive," and DAMN. To put it a different way, Butterfly felt very music-forward, whereas DAMN. But in other places, especially on "FEAR." and "PRIDE.", the soulful spareness works well with the song's themes and Lamar's understated performance.
At times, there's perhaps too little there I've had the album on nonstop since the minute it came out and I still can't remember what "GOD." or "LOYALTY." sound like.
This introspection is also reflected in the mostly somber production, which departs from the meaty P-Funk influences of Butterfly in favor of more minimalist moods. On "DNA.," the album's first fully fleshed-out song, he raps back-to-back: "I got millions, I got riches, buildin' in my DNA / I got dark, I got evil, that rot inside my DNA." Likewise, on the nearly eight-minute marathon "FEAR.," he invites us into his anxious mindset, where there's a thin line between confidence and venality, and any hint of success also carries with it the threat of loss. In some cases, the fractures are made obvious between songs - "LUST." and "LOVE." or "PRIDE." and "HUMBLE.," for example - but even within a track, Lamar is constantly exploring conflicts and contradictions. Its 14 songs, all titled with brief concepts such as "FEEL.", "LOYALTY.", and "DNA.", explore dualities within both the soul and American society.
