I'm loving the jazz feel to the samples. I suspect working with Flying Lotus has had a massive influence on that. However the track 'u' is just out there. I've no idea who it's aimed at, but man, it hits pretty hard. I do wonder if there'll be much replay worth with the song though.
I think the worst thing anyone can do is go in thinking this is going to be a party album. He's past that. King Kunta is the closest you'll get to a 'party track' I guess, but otherwise the feel is pretty dark.
All in all I'm loving it.
Your move, Kanye...

"u" is fucking insane.. Kendrick rapping while drinking and crying? OH LORD, this is too much. and the next song "Alright" is the best thing Pharrell has touched in years.
i thought King Kunta was the only subpar song on the album, but the bassline and the hook were stuck in my head all day so i don't really know anymore.
and the concept is just too brilliant. it's a big surprise, i won't give it to you guys yet.
however, this album just topped Good Kid in my opinion. and that says A LOT.
