im sorry but i love kendricks music as much as the next guy even since he went by k dot but GKMC is definitley not the new illmatic. yeah its good. pretty fuckin good. but have you listened to section.80? every song is great besides 1 (no make-up) and its not even that bad. sorry for the rant but tons of people say its this generations illmatic. i think kendrick definitley did some greatness but with section 80 not GKMC. any one else in same boat?

It took me a few listens to really appreciate section.80, I think its the same story for GKMC

Honestly I didn't really appreciate Illmatic until probably my fourth time listening, same with Section .80, and I'm on my third front to back of Good Kid M.A.D.D. City as we speak. I don't think it's as good as Illmatic, But I sure think it's one of the most comparable albums for our generation, so I actually sort of agree with the statement, it's an instant classic. Kendrick killed it.

just go listen to a.d.h.d. , ronald Reagan era, and fuck your ethnicity. Those 3 songs off of section.80 are better than the entire GKMC album

i like how one idiot comparing it to illmatic makes it "overrated". its such a solid album. its some of the best hip hop I've heard in the last two years no doubt

Trust me, I've listened to those songs a lot, but as an entire album GKMC has a deeper meaning/ better message and theme. And the lyrical content is crazy.

I completely disagree. Sure section.80 was great (don't get me wrong I love it) But I feel like GKMC is just on a whole new level. Something I can't fully understand until I listen to it about 50 times through. It tells a story, you gotta listen to the whole thing through. Bottom line, GKMC is a dope LP with a lot of heart. It took real guts to release this kind of record on a major label in 2012.
