You guys are only 21 years old, yet so mature and well spoken. It blows my mind how well y’all talk about music and social issues discussed within the music industry at such a young age. I’m 25 and my vocabulary is not even close to as extensive as y’all’s. Keep up the great work, and yes I agree, 10/10 project!

I’m 21 also- 12 year old me was obsessed with this album and I’m pretty sure almost every guy my age was bumping this too. In middle school I only liked it for the beats but once I got to high school and grew older the song’s meanings really opened up another chapter. IMO this is one of the most re-listenable albums ever. Also dope ass shirt Luca!

Off the bat you could hear that Kendrick had that 99 OVR potential and he reached it. Only a few rappers hit that peak (in my opinion only 2Pac, Biggie, Eminem, 50 Cent, Kanye, Lil Wayne & Kendrick hit it).

I wanna mention that this album has probably the best deluxe of all time. Back when deluxes were just bonus songs instead of a whole album. You could argue that songs like The Recipe or Black Boy Fly are some of the best Kendrick songs.

The first listen I was shocked because of how good is this album sonically, I realized that this album is fantastic. But it took me at least two or three listens to understand the story and then I started to like it even more.

This album is absolutely incredible.
Such an amazing album in every aspect from start to finish. Probably one of my most played hip-hop albums as well, and Sing About Me, I’m Dying Of Thirst is one my favourite songs of all time.
This album is something more than just music album
One of the few perfect albums! Great review and easily goated. Would love to see an album review on Take Care on the 10 year anniversary next month!
This album came out during a special time in my life - It's nostalgic already. Absolutely love this record, my favorite from Kdot. Great review, fellas.
NFR if this becomes a series of you guys reviewing old album you should do one on Madvillany such a great album
it's so cinematic, what a project
This album wasn’t just music. It was a fine art masterpiece.
This is literally my favorite album of all time.
Review Monster by Future, the story telling on this album is so good, and Codein Crazy and Through away are top 10 hip hop songs off all time!
This is my favorite album of all time! Would love to see Because of The Internet by Childish Gambino review!
This is my favorite Kendrick album, it’s such a classic! One of the best albums of the 2010s! 10/10
Review Piñata. Want to hear what your in depth thoughts are on it
This album has a special place in my heart
You guys give the best album reviews I’ve heard. The way you break down the categories is perfect. Enjoy listening !
The feeling you get when you listen to this album for the first time is invaluable
You guys are content machines. Keep it up, Much love👏🏼
My favorite rap album of all time🐐 Being a kid listening to songs from this album on the radio was truly a special time in my life. Plus I'm a film guy so the cinematic value and storytelling was so Goated.
Timeless. Brilliant. Mind blowing. im here 5 months later with a major different outlook on the album. Mann what can i say other than top 5 hip hop albums of all time. Wordplay amazing. Concept is flawless. Cinematic view. Interludes are crazy. Ant u said it best man speaking on this is so hard bc u want to say so much, this album is like a everyday movie good kid m.A.A.d city track is MINDBLOWING. Music IS an art
My favorite album of all time. I’m in my early twenties and I never got to experience listening to Nas, Jay Z, Pac, etc at their primes but I still go back and enjoy their music. That being said, this was the first hip hop album I felt like I was a part of. It’s grown with me over the years and it’s sound will never get old
Beautiful album. Also I just wanted to say you guys are some of my favorite people to listen to about hip-hop opinions. Entertaining, informative and insightful- you guys always seem to give credit where credit is due and never try to undermine other things and you talk about takes with a wise mind and humble mouth so kudos to you guys keep up the great work!
we need more of these classic album reviews 🔥
the deluxe on this album is crazy with songs like the recipe, now or never, black boy fly, collect calls, and the jayz remix on don’t kill my vide
This album will never leave my playlist❤ Even from a different country n culture, I can still relate to the themes of stuck in your environment n routines, homies, peer pressure, addiction, finding self, realising your potential n more… Thank u Kendrick n u guys for review!
You guys have really made me love this album I almost cry listening to this album. Thank you guys much for the recommendation because I just started to hear this a lot a few months ago.
Love the classic album reviews!
amazing review! for a classic album would love to see more classic album reviews maybe even from the 90's such as an all eyez on me or a Slim shady LP
This a good idea to go back and do reviews of albums that dropped when you guys weren’t up and running 🤙🏼
When art fulfills it's purpose...its the greatest gift of all. The artistry in this album, made me fall in love with hip hop all over again. Kendrick is a blessing to music period! NFR great podcast and review. Love and respect from South Africa.

I found you guys on tiktok, since then am hooked... you are soo good for your age... Thank you for reviewing my best album ever...
That's a perfect album, it's such a rare combination to get concept, deep lyrical display and bangers all over the place.
I spotted gkmc-cd in a finnish music store back in 2012. There was one left, I bought it and was like, damn (no pun intended), this dude can really rap. I was only 10 back then so i didnt really understand anything but while the time passed, I was just starting to really get into rap and listened finnish rap a lot, then got into Jay, Nas and eminem. Suddenly back in 2015 i stumbled upon into TPAB and loved it. Then I remembered that I have the gkmc-cd somewhere in the house and after few hours i found it. GKMC is still my fav hiphop album ever, the nostalagia might be one of the reasons because I listened it during my early school years but the album is ofc amazing. Fun fact, my first mixtape has a bar about gkmc: ” Luupil Lamar koko yläkoulun, kunnes tunti alkaa Jengil varmaan tuttu albumi, kiltti lapsi, hullu kaupunki” ”Listened Lamar on a loop my whole jr high school, until the lesson starts A familiar album to many, good kid, maad city”
I became a Kendrick fan in 2017 but that didn't stop me from appreciating this amazing album
GOAT ALBUM, need that TPAB & Damn revisit throw in section 80 aswell 👀
going down as a mentionable top album in all of hip hop, along with To Pimp A Butterfly
Awesome vid guys.. keeping work hard, love it
Visiting the video 9 months later. This album should be in the Louvre, priceless work of art. I honestly hope they make this into a movie someday
Massive W guys. Love the channel
Happy af for this new series
I was literally thinking last week that you guys should review older albums and now you guys are😂😂
A lot of people can talk about hip hop passionately, but to also speak with that level of eloquence is amazing! Keep going 🙏🏽
Good review y’all. stay killin it. Would be sick if you did a Faces by Mac miller review!! since it just had a re release also perfect time
Been watching for a while, haven’t heard you guys mention your opinion on Madvillany or heard you reference it in other videos. Crossing my fingers for a review in the future :)
You guys know what to do next.. Illmatic.
I listen to this a few hours ago it was a great album and great review by the way you guys do a great job
I can smell that next month we gon have the Take Care Review for the 10 year anniversary
Remember listening to this album for the first time when it dropped. Classic!
Please review Piñata I love that album so much
I actually hadn't listened to GKMC before and wow! I've been heavy sleeping on this. Definetly not overrated, especially the deluxe version.
Wish they talked about the bonus tracks on the deluxe, there is absolute heat there like The Recipe and the B don’t kill my vibe remix
I love the love yall have for k.dot He deserves it and yall are on point all the way
Would love to get a “because of the internet” review
Would love you guys to review Ab’s - Control system 🙏🏼
This album better than to pimp a butterfly
I’d love to hear you guys break down Swimming by Mac Miller. Much love. Keep it up 🔥
Well done. I appreciate that you acknowledged that you wouldn't give a perfect score so carelessly...but I think its important to have a gold standard by which to judge other albums, and as far as the 2010's go, I dont think theres a better album than this one. I should mention, when this album came out, I had already been listening to Kendrick for two years and was a big fan based on OD and Section 80, and was actually a little wary of this album, worried Kendrick was getting lured into a mainstream style. I'm truly glad to say I couldn't have been more wrong, and I appreciate this album now more than ever.
Could y’all tackle The Lost Boy- Cordae, want to hear your thoughts, one of my favorite albums and don’t really hear you guys talk about cordae
gkmc changed my life forever i go back to that album every day its one of the only if not the only flawless album and the crazy thing is it's not even his best
I think Take care should def be yall next Throwback Review
Nothing Was The Same next!
Would love to see a review of tha carter 2 or 3
a review of Graduation or MBDTF would be good
Flawless album , flawless podcast 👍
good kid, m.A.A.d city has recently become my favourite album of all time, not only do I think that it is Kendrick Lamar’s best project, it’s the 2nd greatest rap album behind Illmatic, and I think that it has no skips, no flaws and just a 10/10 all around.
Been waiting on this video🔥🔥🔥 What’s y’all favourite track?
I wanna see u review Cordae The Lost Boys
my intro to K dot was around 2010 when Look out for Detox video dropped and I seen he had so much potential to be one of the GOATS for 2010s and when GKMC dropped I just couldn't get into it was just his voice fluctuation and till this day still can't listen to the album lol but I acknowledge its a classic because the world says it and that is the majority so it must be true. Happy for K dot just for me finding out about him on my own in 2010 and in 2021 he is in the Mount Rushmore he came a long way.
One of the greatest albums across all genres
I would love it if you reviewed the blueprint by jay z
Yeah, I’ve always been surprised that Fantano never liked the hooks on this album. They’re basically flawless imo
