Oh if I was trying to be as objective as possible I would have probably added Illmatic, Reasonable Doubt and a couple other albums over some of the albums I put up there.

Yeah.. I mean like, 99% of the albums on my list are also my favourites and I took that into consideration, but like at times I'd rather listen to 808's or some shit like FutureSex over all of these albums lol. If it was all personal preference it wouldn't be all that different though. I like your list though.

btw @ lance i hope you aren't expecting good kid to be a top 15 album lol you're probably going to be let down. not that kendrick isn't great but you guys are setting this album up for disaster

I'm expecting gkmc to be in my top 15 albums, yes I do
listened to the snippets, half of them sounds fucking great to me, the rest, well I don't know, I'd like to listen to the full songs before saying anything lol.
But one thing I have directly understood : it's going to be great concept, like the title says, it's a film, with characters,"a" plot.
5 months ago, kendrick was like only OK to me, then, couldn't even listen to some song without thinking "that is brilliant, never heard that before in my life, evne in the albums I listed =p"

don't really care if a lot of ppl think like me or not =p but I have a feeling it's going to be in my top 15 albums, I enjoy his music, I have his pic in avatar, but he's still not my favorite artist
But I agree with ya, might change my mind when the album is out, it's only based on snippets and personal feelings


btw, great lists dudes, forgot about "Atmostphere When Life Gives You Lemons"

Yeah lol I'm not denying Kendrick's talent, I really like him and Section.80 is great.. But expecting an album to be a classic is never the way to go. The expectations for this album are ridiculous and I feel bad for Kendrick lol

on the other hand... he said it would be the best albums done in 25 years, you shouldn't feel bad for him if he fails
