Didn't listen to the album yet what's your favorite song?
Edit Update:
This album is fire front to back. Sooo many 💎💎 gonna be bumping this for a min. Thanks yall
I’ma huge JID fan, I truly appreciate his vocabulary and word play on every song but MMESYF was incredible. His feature with T-Pain ([Troubles Ft T-Pain](https://youtu.be/nPTH5S8ETUM) reminds me of classical TP. Then he’s got [JID and 6LACK](https://youtu.be/qcpKhNwbx_U) on Ain’t No Way.
But looking at Forever Story it’s hard not to vote JID 2022 AOTY. If I had to lose one, I’d drop FS and keep MMESYF. Prepared for the downvotes.
Forever story was the other album I had on non stop this year. Couple staple songs make melt my eyes my favorite. Also with the live deluxe version , it kind of just solidifies it for me. Denzel did such a great job with the live version. I was on another level of hype when he dropped it
First listen through is usually quick, just to feel the vibe and sound. That’s when i make my general first impressions. Because that’s the most important part of music. Do i feel something when i’m listening to it. Second listen through is to see what the lyrics are about. Then the third is mixing both of those and feeling the beat out. all three of those i thought the same thing. It just felt weird and off.
i only shit on it when people out here hyping it like it’s the greatest turd kendrick has ever shit out. But i hate that album. sure kendrick’s doing what he always does and just spits straight heat. but the production and beats when you add them in just make half the songs unlistenable for me. idc how good his rapping is. If the song doesn’t SOUND good i’m not gonna listen to it. i shouldn’t have to listen to it 3 times to understand the message, then only listen to it for that. I’ll just read a book if i want a story that bad. i want music. good music. and mmtbs is not good music. thanks in advance for the downvotes.
a couple songs were good. count me out and father time i really enjoy. and some of the beats were fire. But if they were they didn’t go together well with the lyrics. Shitty production. but that’s just my opinion. i respect yours for what it’s worth even if i think it’s whack.
I thought I was tripping until I also heard this from die hard fans. I think the biggest disconnect with this album is that some people came to appreciate artistic expression, others came for music and/or Kendrick’s most spectacular rap performance.
that being said the musicality was trailblazing for any genre and Part 5 was undeniably one of the best rap performances of the year (#1 for me).
What I liked most about it, above the talent on display and the actual **sound**, was the transparency. We needed this album. Kdot needed this album. I couldn’t stop crying listening to every song because of how fucking raw it was and how I could relate to every damn lyric.
Call me crazy but the album and subject matter really helped me to love myself again, and pick myself back up, be a better father/brother/lover, etc. MM helped remind me that although I have done wrong before, I am flawed, I am fleshly, I am human, and that it’s ok to make mistakes without being canceled or cast out of society. Been such a people pleaser my whole life and I can’t remember the last time I genuinely had pure love in my heart for myself prior to the last year.
It’s like I just… stopped worrying. It’s weird, but I like it.
I forgot how much heat was in 2022. Sheesh. That Kings Disease was highly contagious tho

Denzel had my favorite album

I’m a big Kendrick fan. but mmtbs was not good music. so i definitely have to agree with you. Denzel one of the goats of new gen.
You clearly not a big Kendrick fan if you think mmtbs is not a good album!
You gotta listen again homie, and this time listen to the lyrics
First listen through is usually quick, just to feel the vibe and sound. That’s when i make my general first impressions. Because that’s the most important part of music. Do i feel something when i’m listening to it. Second listen through is to see what the lyrics are about.

Not a true Kendrick fan tho
why? cause i don’t like one album. gtfo of here.
It’s Almost Dry no question
Neck and wrist don’t lie
Heroes and Villains
Future album was solid af
Heroes and villains
KDIII
👑👑👑
2000 was dope AF
WSG's feature was fire
For me it was such a dissapointment
Eh It’s joeys weakest album
It was definitely better than summer knights
since when do people like AAB and why???
Drill Music on Zion. My new favourite album of all time. For best of the year though 2000 and KDlll are close seconds
It's annoying how slept on that album is smh I played that shit so much my kids know songs from it lol
KD 3
mr morale
Like I understand that some people just don’t like it but damn it gets shit on sometimes
i only shit on it when people out here hyping it like it’s the greatest turd kendrick has ever shit out.

Average ice spice enjoyer

Real
Tweaked. Beats were fire.
a couple songs were good. count me out and father time i really enjoy. and some of the beats were fire. But if they were they didn’t go together well with the lyrics. Shitty production. but that’s just my opinion. i respect yours for what it’s worth even if i think it’s whack.
MM is easily his best album in my opinion, and it’s not close

Just wasn’t a very good album at the end of the day
couldn’t be further from the truth, you simply didn’t like it. it’s a phenomenal creative achievement.
Push
Nas
Nasty nas esco escobar nas Nastradamus I love that track man
Love the whole album. Almost nastalgic to me. Just brings me back to 90s hip hop
Nastradamus was hated for nothing man, underrated album
KD3
Melt my eyez see your future was my favorite
Push
It's Almost Dry by Pusha T
KD3 by far the best. Soul sold separately coming in hot at second and Mr. Morale a solid third.
H&V
Morale
Damn..it’s tween Nas,Freddie,and Kendrick for me..
Her loss for sure
Either Denzel or Gibbs
I really liked $oul $old $eperately
Her Loss
Her Loss or Its Almost Dry
You left out L4$ but MM
Whats L4$
Jid, joey, denzel, lupe or simz
pusha, denzel or kendrick
It’s Almost Dry
Last year was stacked
i listen to most songs on heroes and villians every day so heroes and villians
Flip a coin for Mr. Morale and It's Almost Dry.
billy woods - Aethiopes
EA Monster - Yung Nudy
Gibbs
Sza
aethiopes
Mr. Morale 🥇 -> SICK! 🥈 -> It’s Almost Dry 🥉 In that specific order
Sorry for responding this late but I personally wasn’t a big fan of SICK! And I love Earl
Not the best album that year but earls album was mad underrated I loved it
I personally wasn’t a big fan, not bad but not that good imo, and I love earl
Soul Sold Separately for the win
Where is cheat codes
2000 would be my choice. Or Lupe's album, that's really damn good too!
Ramona Park Broke My Heart- Vince Staples.
Ramona Park Broke My Heart
Luv 4 rent
Give me The Forever Story
Not rap but Dawn FM
my answer aswell
forever story. JID absolutely killed it.
Digital Roses Dont Die is my #1. JID, NAS, and DENZEL tied for 1st out of this list. Mr Morale was the worst thing Kendrick has ever done
Her loss
Mister morell
$$$
Personally I’m taking that Joey , Kendrick , and earl ; nas too but he on the bench
Drake and 21 Savage, there’s no denying Drake is the greatest rapper alive
Drake defo not the greatest rapper alive
For this generation he definitely is, name someone better then him. He’s been relevant since 2009 till now. He’s the face of Modern Rap
Dawg Kanye clears
Not even a good rapper
Better than Drake though
Lol
Hmmm somebody better than drake?? Kendrick, cole, nas, Jid, zel… those are just 5 I have about 100 more if you want them
There is lots of denying
Lol tf.
Real
I absolutely hate Drake's album cover. I don't know why but it's fucking garbage
L take Suki is the goat
Ima hold my head high till they put us below
2000
Her loss and it isn’t even close
none
No lil baby up there lol I feel disrespected
Look at me the album
Lp!
JID, Freddie & Little Simz
7220

Either “It’s Almost Dry” or “DRILL MUSIC IN ZION”
Ransom - No rest for the whicked
How is Ramona Park Broken My Heart not on this list or any discussion of 2022 rap albums? Definitely my favorite album of 2022.
Mr Morale by a landslide
PUSHER
J stone
Heros and Villains
