The Tap dancing is so overlooked, underrated & a clever concept that alot of people won't understand
I understand tap dancing for the man but dont understand what is means in the album. Is kendrick saying ppl expect him to tap dance for the masses instead of working on himself?
@@trich103 the album is in real time so it's during when he was going thru it & it's suppose to reflect us as well
Stop Tap dancing around the convo instead of being a big stepper with morals 😊
@@trich103 it means people are tap dancing around issues instead of facing them headon.
the woman clearly said "stop dancing around the topic".
Kendrick Lamar is in Ghana 🇬🇭. The people of Ghana love Kendrick. I have listened to the whole Album. I really like the songs. The album is a full message
They love him over there in africa
5:26 was Hilarious 🤣🤣🤣He took it personal 😂
🤣🤣we cry together
A hit dog gonna holla
LOL got defensive real quick
@@imagineth 😂🤣
His j prince looking ahh needa chill
Kendrick is a true modern day POET/ PHILOSOPHER. What he does is not rap its more of a art that shifts the hip hop culture. So, next time when you listen to Kendrick be reminded that he produces art that sparks , stimulate & enlightening your subconscious mind.
Kendrick is not your savior
@@steveocanevil88 clever
chill brah he ain't gawd
Perfect
@Smoke Dawg I disagree
Kendrick is one of a kind...the bravest man in music right now.
You really have to sit down and take in and just listen, no distraction. It’s a really amazing album imo. So thematic.
I did just that and I love Kendrick trust me but this was not his best album I was honestly expecting way more just keeping it 💯
I sat down with headphones in, told my wife to give me an hour, and just took it in with my eyes closed. Which is how I believe the album should be listened to. It’s a journey, and an auditory adventure. Absolute masterpiece.
@@dustinjoeypace it's depressing & not entertaining!!!
@@luddman77 i bet you listen to jack harlow
@@luddman77 when you get married and have a child. Give it another listen. It’s about cleansing yourself from toxic habits for your children’ sake
The albums like a therapy session where you lay it all out. No stone unturned, no closet not opened
Honestly, anytime Kendrick drops an album it’s hard to listen to other artists for a while. This album is no different, the man is in his own lane. The artistry, the message, the flows, the cadence, the stories, the lyrics it’s all so much to unpack. He’s got to be top 5 artists of all time across all genres.
This album was literally Art. I think when someone begins to mature and go through life lessons you will understand the songs differently & appreciate the message in it.
The album was literally trash
"The lyrics are just like screaming at you and then you have to go back and try to enjoy the production", well put.
Here’s the thing, he didn’t have to be as vulnerable as he chose to be, but him doing that, him opening up and being honest about his journey inward is how you invite others into doing it as well. Best way to help others is to help yourself. A New Earth by Eckhart Tolle is a great book to help, Mastery of Love or The Four Agreements by Don Miguel Ruiz, and many works of Osho or Brene Brown have helped me personally. Paulo Coelho as well.
Basically the album was trash is what your saying but to be nice you put it that way lol
@@astepaya4274 😀😃😄😆😅🤣😂😉
@@astepaya4274 🤡
@@astepaya4274 unfortunately you don't know what your talking about, thanks for playing though.
Haven’t read A New Earth, but don’t forget The Power of Now by Eckhart!
Love seeing Nedeska talk hip hop :) Brings back good memories
This album is aging like fine wine already, album of the year. 🔥
Stamp. And not Rap Album of The Year but the Album Of The Year. The Grammys need to put it in the AOTY category.
Zero replay value. Cut the malarkey
@@humblebragger500 cause you not cut from our cloth
@@humblebragger500 facts
@@kenzoayangma5611 Not Facts
Not enough mention of Eckhart Tolle repeatedly dropping throughout the album on any reviews. It is not his therapist. This is not sitting on a couch. This is introspective change over time and through failure. His inclusion tilts the perspective of the album dealing with breaking down the EGO. A challenge everybody must undertake. Kendrick even mentions on Count Me Out. “I do it for my ego, lord of all lords”
To everyone reading this comment, don't stop hustling, keep pushing and trust the process, believe you will actually make it to the top someday. Stopping is never an option.
Stay blessed and keep your head up.
I don't have so many subscribes but the few i have are so special to my struggle ♥️♥️♥️
The Tap Dance is perfect metaphor of what we all fall short in…tip-toeing around our bullshxt. Kendrick pretty much said that it’s time to quit the bullshxt and start the healing process 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
MM&TBS is one of his best albums tbh, Kendrick is just allergic to missing. Mother I Sober is one of his most emotional tracks by far.
Kendrick Lamar sold out to the LGBT community on this album.He is a sellout.
@@ManessahIsrael care to elaborate?
@@ManessahIsrael weird song from a guy like Kendrick right
@@ManessahIsrael Even though it's about his auntie, and him saying f*ggot, over and over, again and again. It's just a true perspective.
Trash album , very annoying singing
I’m glad we still got people who will sit an break down albums like this, it’s really what they are made for, to be understood and effect change in that understanding, that’s hip hop
Professor skye is a one
yeah thats why i missed everyday struggle when nadeska was on it
They didn’t break it down anywhere near enough and the guy on the right, Lowkey, was physically uncomfortable talking about it in my opinion. Came across like some macho guy.
@@MrsCrazyrange Im more talking about the genuine interest and attempt to understand the hip hop on display and the artist in questions work
Ebro your analysis was dope. Thank you!
This is a really good observation and review of the album, I actually realised that I listened to it wrong the first time around.
Kendrick Lamar's new album proves he sold out to the LGBT.
@@ManessahIsrael you also have certain aspects of yourself you may feel the world doesn’t tolerate…ultimately that has nothing to do with you but more so a societal issues. You’re not perfect…you’re not supposed to be.
@@ManessahIsrael how do you listen to the whole album and say that?
@@ManessahIsrael lmao he is not pro LGBT, I’m pretty sure he was pro love and humanity. Which encompasses the idea to love everyone as they are. You can love people and not agree with that they do. That’s the beauty of freedom of belief.
@@ManessahIsrael haha
The fact that she’s incentivised to perpetuate chaos in her life will not stop her from actually having a healthy co parenting relationship, let’s just stop listening to her song & refrain from incentivising none sense in the black family.
Kendrick Lamar is officially the goat!!…lets stop tap dancing around the conversation!
Big facts!
He is simply ahead of everybody.
Facts yes he has cemented it
There's a lot of them he can join the list and im sure he wont be the last lol
Trash album
I will never forget when Ebro n the crew antagonised Kodak Black live on radio and Kodak walked out of the interview. Kendricks music and all albums are life changing pieces of art. Each album speaks powerfully across the entire world.
this is realest review i’ve heard yet. everyone is so focused on replay ability but just the aspect of tap dancing is something we can talk about for hours
Watch Jon Denton and the Mallory boys discuss the album.
I totally agree 💯💯this album has been like therapy. I keep having to go back and feel it, listen and unpack everything. This is a gift. thank you Kendrick for opening yourself up and trusting us with your truth 🥹❤️
Ebor's perspective / assessment on people in general or black people specifically tap dancing around their deep rooted issues that continue to plague them and they perpetually project that pain throughout every aspect of their life, and never building the courage to address or confront those traumas, before we can heal the world or rather our community, we have to first figure out how we can heal ourselves and one of the steps is to be unapologetically honest with yourself, take accountability for the part you played in the process and seek ways to resolve those underlying issues, that would be the epitome of keeping it real with yourself
Well said!
Someone had to say it, nobody talking enough about how Ebro from beginning started with calling Lowkey just “low” and then didn’t let Lowkey finish making his point because he was making a point specifically saying this kind of conversations you can’t have immediately and Ebro goes all like sToP tAp dAnCiNg… bruh
I truly believe this is only the start of a beautiful movement of really finding individuality within ourselves, and to stop praising these celebrities because they all still have problems and baggage they have to deal with on a basis..
Yes, to stop idolizing them AND also to stop tearing them to pieces the moment it becomes apparent that they aren't perfect. It's two sides of the same coin.
I love this album
Facts!!!! That’s why when he said I am not your savior about time!!! We love but he’s a regular person just like me and you!!!!
Album of the year fasho
This was a dope conversation. Good show.
Kendrick Lamar is Jewel, his latest album illustrates so much of his personal life as well as touching on every sensitive topic of humanity.
This album will be studied and he will probably win his 2nd Pulitzer prize.
Classic.
Good to see nadeska, I miss the everday struggle dayss 😪
I have been praising the production, arrangement and tone, but that word "Thematic" sums it all up. It really has depth and body to a degree where not just the structure and content of his lyrics are just enthralling. The music just has a quality where you are captured by cadence and queues in the songs all aligning. Thematic, Cinematic it was a musical mosaic wound into a stream of consciousness. Even with moving on from TDE he will still be active, as pgLang looks to be a similar manifestation of his semblance as an artist. I dont know to expect too much more of our fellow man in the charts as I believe he will be taking a move similar to J. Cole, sprinkled with a bit of Nas. A road yet to be disturbed, but anywhere close, this is the valley of silence. Until next time, we'll see through his next respite, he is most definitely raps Dave Chappelle.
Nobody can touch Kendrick man
In terms of what exactly?
The more I listen to the album the more I enjoy it. Kudos to Kendrick🔥🔥🔥.
Kendrick Lamar dropped the most important album of the year .
Kendrick Lamar sold out to the LGBT on this album
@@ManessahIsrael yeah ngl there's a heavy presence of it on the album, but then again Kendrick sold out a long time ago. Still value his work though
@@tggatsby3501 there’s like 1 or two songs talking about it out of 18 lmao
@@ManessahIsrael Sold out to the LGBT? 😂 "the LGBT" are real people. People that probably exist in your family. People that exist in Kendrick's family. You sound ridiculous. Man has every right to uplift his family, who hasn't done anything wrong.
@@theob2388 you people don't belong to any CULTURE so to its do whatever you want with absolutely no rules like animals..the bible calls you BEAST.
Ebro is the only one who’s feeling is hurt over Kodak being on the album
I loved this album, not as good as the first one but better than the 2nd one. He came hella hard. Got more jam's off this then I did with Drake album. And I loved that one as well
At least my thirtieth listen now. Yup, I'm getting more certain with each listen: this really might be my favorite Kendrick album. Crazy, right?
I'll probably double back and go listen all the way from Section 80 to this. Totally beautiful.
Facts
I love that Kendrick poses these questions and ideas. It's beautiful the way he can get the culture talking and hopefully healing trauma at the end.
Prolly one of the best interviews ever
Bruh! This new album definitely ranks in the top albums created of all time! 🔥🔥🔥A MASTERPIECE!! Wow! A album SOLID SOLID all the way through!
Trash album
🧢
Just feeling privileged to live in the same time as Kendrick Lamar.
I’ve noticed many people know not WHO Elkhart Tole is. They refer to him as a therapist voice…folks need to ask uncle Google. He’s beyond a brilliant choice, in juxtaposition to Kodak Black, imo. ⚖️
Nedeska 🔥 as usual
I really feel that interpretation of the tap dancing was crazy cause I didn’t even think about that at all it make so many sense
Kendrick did a good job….the album is the definition of music. Creativity. Art…as a kid hiphop taught about life. Social situations. History. Ect…a lot of the early musicians and artists gave real life stories that u could relate to and learn from and that’s what k dot is doing and thats what it’s all about…peace ✅
When said and done this album will be a top 5 yes top 5 album of all time. So ahead of its time each song has multiple beats & sounds. Like 4-5 different sounds to his voice . Listen 4 times the 5th will be 💎. Honestly there with Stillmatic, MM LP, Hard Knock Life.
Every time I listen it gets better and better
E BRO A WALKING LLLL🐍🐍🐍
Kendrick is so prophetic with words that you won't understand him
if you listening from a surface level. something almost like just almost
like you reading the book of Proverbs
I ain’t seen nadeska in a minute and i gotta say she looks amazing
This album is a mirror that forces you to look at what may really be causing the depression...and then finally take it off.👌🏾
He listened to 4:44 and watched Dave Chapelle last stand up
The studio is amazing 🔥🔥🔥
The Bayern jersey 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I thought the tap dance effect played a role for the big steppers theme? Didn’t think it was a deeper concept to it 🫥
If you aren’t ready to heal or grow as a person, you won’t understand this album, you won’t like it, you will hate it and throw shade on it. Because YOU aren’t ready to progress and grow
My favorite Kendrick album 💿
Very timely 🔥
I think the tap dancing metaphor was also symbolic of how kendrick is performing his pain to the world
Ebro bro, could you please employ new people, you're doing everything bro. Create opportunities.
nadeska and ebro in the same room! I've seen it all jajaja
Complex fumbled the bag wit nadeska and nobody wants to watch Ebro 😂😂
wow I must say I actually agree with Ebro
I'm here for Nadeska!
I mean I just feel an album like this can’t ever be topped this is ART in the purest form musical lyrical masterpiece!
Madeska on an Apple Music show with a T-Mobile shirt on..get ya money mama
I'm very proud that my fav artist Eminem reacted to Kendrick's album. I love both artist 🙌🙌
Me too💯🔥🔥🐐🐐
I forgot about Nadeska she’s 🔥. Her Joe and Ak together was so good 😅
Idk she looks like she hurting or something
this is the GREATEST album of all time. No bs.
So I was taking a walk the other day
Prefect ⏱
this lo guy men . shaking my head everytime
Kendrick’s album isn’t just about him, it’s about all of us. We all grief different
I appreciate Kendrick for his art and Akademiks for his unfiltered perspectives.
Love Kendrick's talent. I can't get past his calling people "overnight activists" though. So many Black male rappers that I've liked (Ye, Cube, Weezy, etc.) have aligned with or said things that white supremacists can weaponize against the people who made them who they are. So of all people, to come for activists no matter their timing, is concerning.
This is rap album of the decade so far IMO. Will it hold up? Only Kendrick and a couple of Hip Hop Artist will determine that
Trash album, annoying singing, boring tracks
Kodak Black was fire on the album 🔥🔥
That's the girl from everyday struggle! I been racking my brain trying to figure it out!!
This was the perfect goodbye to TDE and hello world album from Kendrick..
MMBS is fine art. 10/10. It's the best album he's ever made.
Nadeska claims this is a "Crazy" Album...
But Deep Inside if you pause the video and take a look of her expressions...Sounds like you're "Toe Tapping"!!!
Big Steppin' for Real!
That man album is dope Kendrick killed ittttttttttttttt
Mr.MorASS and the Big SKIPers 🤷🏽♂️ wasn’t a horrible album but i’m not dying to replay anymore than … 2-3 songs 😵💫
Lol cant please everybody, you cant please every mind
5:28 someone was triggered lol
These three have the worst chemistry I’ve seen on a show.
Bro, that is not Nadeska...
That's not what mirror was about
my god, ebro is beautiful
Demetrius is MaryAnn now!!!!!
Eish Nadeska be so fine
Kendrick didn’t have any bars that stood out on this album to compare to OffSeason (‘21) . I just wana hear bars in (‘22)
hahaha das Bayern Dress is zu lustig xD
what happened to nadeskas skin?
nah, this too soon... BET you come back in a couple years and we'll have a different take on the album. gotta let time unpack everything.
U really need to listen to the album and I bet u will bypass the number one thing and I hope someone will ask wht it is
👀🍿
Kinda sad that a hip hop artist dropped a dope HIP HOP album in HIP HOP and the hip hop culture doesn’t know how to receive it….
Facts!!!
Why Ebro reviewing the album, dude he a bozo n clown.
Respect to Ebro.
Thought that was j prince 😂
Bet the boy Kendrick reading some books right now, self educated.
