I enjoyed pride and god. I saw him live and after end the concert with Humble. He came back after we kept chanting his name and he performed GOD. Something I didn’t expect and it was awesome
“Large Sean” In all seriousness, much props for even going past Overly Dedicated, most people barely even mention Overly Dedicated. This is a true Deep Discog Dive
(cw suicide and hospital mention) I first heard Kendrick's music when I was 16 and in the child's psych ward after trying to hang myself. My family never let us listen to music, especially secular music, so even though I secretly listened to music once I had internet and radio access, I had no entry way into rap - even though my mom let us listen to a little Christian rap, my dad was sensitive to it for racist reasons, and so I was more unfamiliar with rap than other music. My 3 weeks in the hospital were one of the most draining experiences in my life. Everything I'd previously used to will myself to live was not given to us - good food, fresh air, sunshine, colour, the internet, human connection - but not being allowed to have music was the most painful. We had a TV in the common area though, and I'd keep it on our MTV equivalent after hearing a snippet of 'i'. It rarely got air time, but when it did, I was glued to the screen. I owe my acceptance of my brown skin, the challenging of my views on justice, my love of hip hop, the hope found in realising my parents were wrong and people in the real world would accept me, and so many other things to that moment. I would be an entirely different person without that, and it's crazy to think such a small thing made that level of impact on me.
DAMN. was the album that made me realize: yes rap is good, i like rap. it also birthed my appreciation for albums as a body of work rather than a collection of songs
He said once that he doesn't connect with Beach House's Discog, although he respects it. Don't know if he'd be too enthusiastic about listening to it (even thought he should)
I know this vid is 2 years old but you mentioned that DAMN was Kendrick’s most personal album yet….. just wait my man you’re in for a treat cuz his next album Mr. Morale and the Big Steppers will get REAL personal
FR man how could he not like it, the production is heavenly and spin-chilling at the same time all the while complimenting kendrick's superbly crafted lyrics, both poetic and tragically direct, its honestly a slight offense to call it decent.
My favourite Kendrick Lamar songs: 10. How Much a Dollar Cost 9. These Walls 8. PRIDE. 7. LUST. 6. Mortal Man 5. Alright 4. u 3. Untitled 05 2. The Blacker the Berry 1. Wesley's Theory

I love that someone is finally discussing those Colbert performances. They Killed!!! Some are superior to the Untitled Unmastered performances. And they have been continuously deleted and reuploaded to RUclips so not everyone got to watch all of them. And those girls that sung the harmonies sung so so well.
amongst the big names in rap especially in our current era I can only nominate Kendrick as the real GOAT Not only because within his discography the highs are the best in modern hip hop but his lows are still strides above many of his contemporaries
While Bad Blood was okay, it also made me hungry for more of Lamar-Swift. They're both great at lyricism, and crafting melodies. I have been waiting for a full-fledged collaboration between the two. Even just an EP would suffice. With Taylor Swift's new alt-rock/folk route, it would make for a very interesting collab. Folk-Rap or Alt-rap fusion from the two would be great!
Ahhh, rookie error, forgetting Kendrick's best song: B***H I'M IN THE CLUUUBBBBB WITH THE HOMIESSSS Also holy heck those vocals at the beginning were excellent.
@@daishoryujin95 he actually did a guest appearance on David Rowe's channel where he talked about Vulfpeck already. (S/o David, great channel) ruclips.net/video/ve-Ge_w3Nyw/видео.html
That Grammys performance was truly insane! Even if I've grown to hate the majority of Imagine Dragons' musical output since then, I can still admit that that collab was absolutely killer.
i do recommend to anyone who is voting in the poll to maybe not vote for your favorite artists that you know about. vote for the names you’ve never heard, ones you know little about, or artists you want to know more about. that way you can get something new out of it rather than having the same knowledge you already possess get thrown at you. that being said, voting popular artists like Kendrick isn’t totally bad, as maybe there are things you may not know about them that can help, and it also attracts a larger audience than an artist no one knows, i suppose. depends on what kind of fan you are.
Good kid, maad city is my favourite Kendrick Lamar record, Swimming Pools and Bitch don't kill my vibe are stellar P.S I would love to see more pop options for the poll like Robyn or Charli XCX
would love your opinion on Lady Gaga's discography, I voted for her on the poll, also for future polls: Arctic Monkeys, The Weeknd, Ariana Grande, Lana Del Rey, and if you ever wanted to get into Kpop I can recommend EXO's discography (and every other artist under SM tbh)
I think all the individual tracks on TPAB stand really well on their own. Maybe not Mortal Man, Maybe not the album version of I, but I think the rest of the tracks work really well on their own. One song that always turns up a party that you'd never expect to is For Free?, but it got a catchy-ass hook everyone can sing along to.
I highly recommend Dissect Podcast he did an brilliant analysis on Kendrick Lamar's DAMN. He breaks down the concept and lyrics behind the album and he breaks down the backwards album concept of DAMN. and how it relates to the Bible. He also did an brilliant analysis on To Pimp A Butterfly. 1. DAMN. 10/10 (classic) 2. To Pimp A Butterfly 10/10 (classic) 3. good kid, m.A.A.d city 10/10 (classic) 4. Section.80 9/10 (cult classic) 5. Untitled Unmastered 8.5/10 6. Overly Dedicated 8.5/10 7. Kendrick Lamar EP 7/10
I figure this could be a nice top 10 songs of Kendrick's discography: 10. Hol' Up 9. DNA. 8. Swimming Pools (Drank) 7. u 6. A.D.H.D 5. Keisha's Song 4. Alright 3. m.A.A.d city 2. King Kunta 1. The Blacker the Berry
u is my favorite song from to pimp a butterfly. The repetition of "Loving you is complicated" and the break in the middle to next part of the song just full of pain and anger. Just yesss. I love his feature in siR's song Hair Down and gosh King's Dead off the Black Panther album along with Humble and DNA are the get hype jams. Kendrick is so brilliant.
DAMM still works for me 5 years later. I could write essays on it. It’s such a dope way conceptually to follow up such a highly regarded & acclaimed album like TPAB.
I actually made an album on my iTunes of my favourite Kendrick live performances from 2013-2016 The track list is: These Walls (Ellen) Poetic Justice (SNL) untitled 03 (Colbert) i (SNL) untitled 02 & 08 (Colbert)
As always, good Deep Discog Dive. Personally, when I think about my favorite Kendrick tracks, "Swimming Pools (Drank)", "Poetic Justice", "Kesha (Her Pain)", "Complexion (A Zulu Love)", "King Kunta", "FEEL." and this one with the "Levitate, levitate, levitate..." verse comes at first. Oh, and I would like to suggest the Pixies to add to the DDDP, because super-good and super-influent alternative rock band.
Watching this videos is one of the best informative and fun experiences for me. The quality of the analysis only gets better: a delightful mix between data and humor. Great job!
good lord mr snare those vocals were fantastic, as well as the video. didn’t know very much about the beginning of his career, thank you for filling in some blanks i didn’t realize existed.
I bought TPAB, and GKMC because of his contributions on Dre's Compton album. I'd just got back into music at that time, and he caught my attention. Then he dropped Damn. the day I picked them up. April 2017 was a good month for me.
Oooh I'm early! Just wanna say I've really been enjoying the content. You're a likeable guy and all your videos have a nice laid back vibe to them. Your presentation is very clean as well. Good stuff
The streets need an MF DOOM Deep Discog Dive
EDIT: the streets are pleased
Omg the edit 😭
Gabe
if all Kendrick did was drop his verse on Vince Staples’ “Yeah Right” and that’s it, he’d still be one of the best rappers out there right now.
What an exceedingly good take
Hot damn, yeah. One of the best verses ever, easily.
Vince putting SOPHIE and Kendrick Lamar on the same track was a stroke of pure genius
Sam Burton-King yes.
Facts
I see I'm still standing as the only one who thinks PRIDE is one of his best songs
How could he say LOYALTY. is better than PRIDE.
I enjoyed pride and god. I saw him live and after end the concert with Humble. He came back after we kept chanting his name and he performed GOD. Something I didn’t expect and it was awesome
PRIDE has an absolutely beautiful chorus
I think These Walls is one of his best
Well Fantano thinks PRIDE is one of the few songs he really likes on DAMN
the phrase Large Sean shouldn't be that funny, and yet
+
I was literally W H E E Z I N G
SCREAMINGGGG
not a phrase
I read this comment before it came up and still laughed at it
“Large Sean”
In all seriousness, much props for even going past Overly Dedicated, most people barely even mention Overly Dedicated. This is a true Deep Discog Dive

Even the Kendrick Lamar ep super dope to me

Why does your dad hate rap for racist reasons if you're brown?
So the moral is.. Christianity is an evil cult? Gotcha.

April the 7th is a date in April
I got so hyped seeing this in the sub box lmao
Same, Lol
literally 😭😭
I’d like to present Beach House, Death Cab for Cutie, and Charli XCX as candidates for a DDD. Love these videos. Keep up the great work!
Yesssss, love Charli and Beach House.
i would absolutely love him to do a Deep Discog Dive on Charli especially since the large gaunt of styles she's covered
She's going to release an album either by the end of this year or next year so it'd be good to wait for that
He said once that he doesn't connect with Beach House's Discog, although he respects it. Don't know if he'd be too enthusiastic about listening to it (even thought he should)
@@SebastianCervantesC like the Burial pfp!
Damn, your voice is awesome. I'm starting to think you went to music school or something.
Well he did do choir at his school apparently
Dude, you can literally find his Curriculum if you just look a little bit into his channel infl
I know this vid is 2 years old but you mentioned that DAMN was Kendrick’s most personal album yet….. just wait my man you’re in for a treat cuz his next album Mr. Morale and the Big Steppers will get REAL personal

yo I could barely tell that the vocals at the beginning were re recorded holy hell
ok I take back the compliment you ain’t have to bring up the fuckin HEIST COME ON BRO
The comment, the reply, i have peacefully passed away.
I immediately noticed wtf haha
Pride is literally one of the most poetic songs in his whole discog. I understand not liking god but shit man
FR man how could he not like it, the production is heavenly and spin-chilling at the same time all the while complimenting kendrick's superbly crafted lyrics, both poetic and tragically direct, its honestly a slight offense to call it decent.

Finally! Someone has Lust on their top 10 too.
Actually accurate
W for mortal man
Wesley's theory is probably the best rap song i ever heard
"DEEP DISCOG DIVE: clipping." has a nice ring to it...

And they have been continuously deleted and reuploaded to RUclips so not everyone got to watch all of them. And those girls that sung the harmonies sung so so well.
His performance on the Colbert Report is one of my all time favorite live performances, full stop. An instant classic
They deleted his 2016 grammy performance too, which sucks
Apparently TDE removed his i Performance on SNL on RUclips because it was so good and diverting viewers away from watching the actual music video
amongst the big names in rap especially in our current era I can only nominate Kendrick as the real GOAT
Not only because within his discography the highs are the best in modern hip hop but his lows are still strides above many of his contemporaries
I wake up most days just hoping his new album has been secretly dropped out of nowhere
While Bad Blood was okay, it also made me hungry for more of Lamar-Swift. They're both great at lyricism, and crafting melodies. I have been waiting for a full-fledged collaboration between the two. Even just an EP would suffice. With Taylor Swift's new alt-rock/folk route, it would make for a very interesting collab. Folk-Rap or Alt-rap fusion from the two would be great!

Incredibly small point:
I'm grateful you wrote "little a" instead of "a little", so many people get that wrong.
THANK YOU I was worried people would think it was a typo
That opening though... I didn't realize how musical you are!
i do recommend to anyone who is voting in the poll to maybe not vote for your favorite artists that you know about. vote for the names you’ve never heard, ones you know little about, or artists you want to know more about. that way you can get something new out of it rather than having the same knowledge you already possess get thrown at you.

you know this guys good when he can make me watch every deep discog dive when ive only ever listened to 3 of the artists hes covered

“Kendrick did the unthinkable.....he got into comic books”
I should not have laughed as hard as I did for that one....

Okay, Anthony fantano
2 classic albums and 2 great albums. Enough said.
WE'RE ABOUT TO GET NEW KENDRICK THIS WEEK, Y'ALL!!!!!!!
You didn’t have to go off in the intro like that 🤧🔥. Your tone is dope
Maybe now we'll get a Radiohead DDD, since they seem to always get second place

The bit introducing DAMN. is expertly written omg how you are so great
Kendrick’s best song will always be the blacker the berry and nobody can change my mind.
Excited for spoon deep discog dive in November, king
Let’s go!!! My favorite RUclipsr talking about one of my favorite artists!
Every video just gets better and better. Nick, you deserve more subs than Felix.
11:52 those are my two favorite songs of the album •__•
Beach Boys and Brian Wilson. Both of them
I actually made an album on my iTunes of my favourite Kendrick live performances from 2013-2016
The track list is:
These Walls (Ellen)
Poetic Justice (SNL)
untitled 03 (Colbert)
i (SNL)
untitled 02 & 08 (Colbert)
As always, good Deep Discog Dive. Personally, when I think about my favorite Kendrick tracks, "Swimming Pools (Drank)", "Poetic Justice", "Kesha (Her Pain)", "Complexion (A Zulu Love)", "King Kunta", "FEEL." and this one with the "Levitate, levitate, levitate..." verse comes at first.

and ALSO JAMES BLAKE fucking KILLED me thats so funny holy shit
slowly but surely becoming one of my favorite music analysis/review channels
Good Kid saved my life. I'm glad you did a deep dive of this man, keep up the good work!!
imo, Wesley's Theory is one of the best songs of all time, and TPAB is simply the best album ever made, no contest.
A candidate for the best rap album with tons of contest
That intro was just heavenly. Outstanding work Mic
Can’t wait for Crazy Frog discog dive in November!
Watching this videos is one of the best informative and fun experiences for me. The quality of the analysis only gets better: a delightful mix between data and humor. Great job!
dang i wish i could appreciate music the way that you do
I'm begging you man...PLEASE do one on Lupe Fiasco. Tetsuo & Youth and Drogas Wave will make you rethink storytelling in hip hop.
NOVEMBER SPOON DDD BABYYYYYYY
good lord mr snare those vocals were fantastic, as well as the video. didn’t know very much about the beginning of his career, thank you for filling in some blanks i didn’t realize existed.
Thank you for bringing up the control verse, that’s what got me into Kendrick
I struggle to choose between GKMC and TPAB as my favorite album, but Good Kid is still my favorite song of his
I'd love to see King Krule and Frank Ocean in the poll! ❤️
I personally think that Beach House and Mac Miller could have a DDD
UNTITLED UNMASTERED IS KENDRICKS AMNESIAC HOLY FUCK BALLS THIS MAKES WAY TOO MUCH SENSE
absolutely loved your review. i love section.80 and good kid m.a.a.d city, it's time to give a listen to the later albums
The singing in the opening was really good. You did it justice.
cant wait for the spoon discog dive!
Was so happy to see this in my sub feed!
Do prince or David Bowie next it’s gonna be 3 hour video 😂🤣
Both top 5 but prince the the greatest artist of all time
MusicWithTrey facts 💯
This actually aged well
the streets need a redo NOW
I'm new to the channel, and I'm so glad I found it. Keep it up G
Your hands do not need to be in EVERY shot Genius!!!!
At least for now my favorite song from him is The art of peer pressure the tone of the song is very cool
Nice No More Parties in LA reference at 9:38.
You do not know how happy I was to see this 🤩
I will never forget the first time I heard DAMN. That was almost like our generations moon landing lol.
Pride is one of his top 5 best songs to me how dare you brother
There isnt a day that i dont bop These Walls
For a Deep Disc Dive, it would rock to see Rush on the list. There’s a lot of albums to listen to, but they’re all special and interesting listens.
I bought TPAB, and GKMC because of his contributions on Dre's Compton album. I'd just got back into music at that time, and he caught my attention. Then he dropped Damn. the day I picked them up. April 2017 was a good month for me.
DAMN! beats To Pimp a Butterfly in my books. How it tells a story from beginning to end and the production are exquisite.
you deserve way more views, like seriously I look forward to your dive ins in albums and artists.
“Large Sean” gave me a chuckle
King Kendrick! 👑
Can we add Childish Gambino to the deep discog dive wishlist?
Boards of Canada would be a really interesting discog deep dive, I think.
Bro niceee content keep it that way
Xxx is so good because i love that lil U2 intro that blended so well
Making me choose between Queen, Bowie AND Beastie Boys in the poll... you monster.
you can vote for mutliple!
@@daishoryujin95 huh, couldn't do that on phone. Thanks for heads-up!
Pride is one of his best songs you're out of your mind for that one the mix is incredible too what check your headphones lol
Kendrick is hit or miss for me, still love his music.
