    Dope track.

    Although I’m not as a big a fan of Kendrick compared to Ab-Soul, I fully expect it to be a close tug of war between GKMC and The Heist for album of the year

  • left on 182nd

    A plus.

    Damn I’m tryna wait till the actual album comes out to listen to any more songs. This is like when Christmas presents are under the tree a week before the actual day D:

  • SK

    and @konrad, I don’t know how you like Ab-Soul over Kendrick. Ab-soul’s dope but he just raps about conspiracy theory shit. Kendrick’s rhymes are real

  • Bryant

    Hope this album sells well because it will be well deserved. His music has been a breath of fresh air, real hip hop about life and stories not all about all these women and cars that come with it. Hope he continues which i believe he will. As to this song, beat is ridiculous (Hit-Boy) and Kendrick’s wordplay and delivery are on point. Crazy thing is im sure there will be better songs on the album. Oct. 22nd, BUY THAT ALBUM.

    Jesus christ I cannot wait for this album.
