Also heard this today via Spotify. This is pretty good if you ask me. I didn't listen to Overly Dedicated so this is the first time I've heard this guy. His voice is kinda weak but I got used to it over the course of the album. The production on this thing is top notch if you ask me. Some boring beats occasionally, but overall I was impressed. Kendrick seems to be pretty versatile and can do slow, mid-tempo, and fast flows. This album seems like it is a concept album, and I did catch some recurring themes but I think I'll need to listen to it again to fully understand where he was going with it. But I honestly didn't hear a bad song on here, although a couple were uninteresting. I don't think this is a classic, but I can see why it is looked at as one of the better releases of this year. It's certainly a strong debut album, and it seems like he will only get better with maturity. I'll give it 4 stars.
