What's crazy is Kendrick created an album like GKMC and still went on to create another masterpiece in TPAB. He's such a genius.. The Best in the world 💥🚀

This album was snubbed for rap album of the year at the Grammys. I bring it up all the time in my conversations of hip hop.

Sing about me is my favorite hip hop song of all time. It just hit me different that first time listening! 💯❤️🔥 I'm happy for Kendrick!
