To Pimp a Butterfly - Kendrick Lamar

MARCH THE 23rd... THE 23rd. IT IS COMING 

Look Kendrick Lamar for me is one of the best rappers of all time. ALL TIME *shrugs shoulders*, he has graced us with his lyrical ability times without number and I'm sure in the stupid J.Cole and Kendrick Debate he would win every time. 

The fact that good kid M.A.A.D. City still gives me chills everytime I listen to it I think it's fair that anticipating his next release is expected. 

To keep fans on board he released "I" last year on the 23rd of September (my birthday) which received a very mixed reception as many thought that the use of The Isley Brother's sample meant K.Dot was changing his sound to a pop rap kind but in my opinion sampling a soul group from 1964 doesn't make his sound pop. However I wasn't that big on the song either the song isn't good and it isn't bad for me

BUUUUTTTT come February the 9th, "The Blacker The Berry" resurrected the belief of Kendrick Fans everywhere. (Track Review to follow) But the song is a banger and it gives us a taste of what Kendrick Lamar will be giving us next. 

So the 23rd, set an alarm, put it in your diary and make sure you listen to it oh and I won't be available, don't contact me.
