Dre beat? Fly Lo may have a bunch of jazz influence in his beat and thats great but once that Dr.

This doesn’t take away from what your saying but imo if you have a Flying Lotus beat and a Dr. You could break down the entire history of music to me and I’m likely to still say from a musically standpoint that Hip Hop can top that and my evidence is gonna be a long list of classic Hip Hop albums. I’m a 80s baby, I grew up in a house with jazz music playing and all that was great but Hip Hop is dope as well. Imo Hip Hop is just as, if not more incredible then jazz. If were gonna give Jazz credit then we gotta give Hip Hop credit to. I brought up the Dre connect because its TRUE. This is not a reach or a sign that I’m mad at Kendrick or attacking everybody that likes his music. Dre has a whole production team that Kendrick does not use that likely has better beats. None of it means I’m mad at Kendrick, I simply brought up that Dr. Again, Kendrick’s production was mentioned and I brought up Dr. You assuming that somehow I must be mad just cause I comment about music? Is wrong on your part. You bringing those things up when I didn’t as a counter to my comment was indeed implicating that my comment involved and included those things in regards to Kendrick as if I was saying those were problems of his? My comment did NOT say or imply any of that. None of which I was suggest Kendrick should throw out the window. You brought up Future, integrity, and creativity…. If Kendrick was rapping over the beats that I know he must be hearing from these producers? You would hear an almost completely different kinda Kendrick… None of this is a diss to the production team he’s working with but its multiple heavyweights walking in and out of Dr Dre’s studio and the shit in their must sound ridiculously epic. Kendrick is over there with Dr Dre, Dj Khalil, Battlecat, Focus, Bink and Mr Porter… Now its almost a certainty that those 6 producers have monster production on deck as far as beats are concerned and its no way in hell the production team Kendrick is working with can fuck with them. They not bad producers but they beats be sounding humble imo. I don’t think any of those producers do Kendrick justice as far as his beats are concerned. Its not very much in between cause at that point its almost just background music to whatever the rappers saying. With beats imo its more like either you like them or you don’t. we can’t get enough of this… “kendrick has a verve for taking giant steps backwards into an era where masters let the music speak for itself” 8.6/10 - pitchfork, “lyrics, sharp as a razor’s tip (they are almost too many gems to name) as drums, horn & string drink in the innumerable variations of these present moments” 4.I don’t know how one can hear sounds like their bars? Now if that is the case i’d say if the sounds were more “choppy” or sectional or pattern based like say Dj Premier and J Dill having a beat baby together? Then maybe I could see sound being able to come across like bars but even then it would be different. Recorded alongside, as well as both pre & post ‘to pimp a butterfly’, this collection hits just as hard & heavy as its sister album, keeping his unique conscious flow at the forefront while a host of incredible producers & musicians keep things ticking behind him (to name but a few – adrian younge, thundercat & robert glasper), pushing soul further (think madlib or j dilla style production) to bolster the jazzier feel of ‘tpab’. There’s surely no doubting now that kendrick lamar is one of the true greats – despite the dismissive titling of this release, these 8 tracks prove the incredible industrious power & passion of a true genius.
