Yes.

Internet is ablaze with rumors of a second album coming on Sunday.
Ha yeah, my wife is fully onboard with this conspiracy
Well this turned out to be a whole lotta nothing.

Thanks a lot, Kendrick!

Through my experience with Kanye, I have learned to never, ever trust internet rumors about rap releases.

I thought there was no way this was as good as the thread is making it out to be, but about halfway thru and yeah its pretty good

A lot of 90s sound in a bunch of the tracks

That verse on XXX. just destroys me every time.

Showing my ignorance here -- what does it mean to "chip" someone and "throw the blower in his lap?"

Walk myself to the court like, "Bitch, I did that!" "

I'll shoot a guy, toss the gun in his lap, then go to the courthouse and admit that I just did it...
Or he could be using the gun as a metaphor for the microphone.

Thanks! I picked the gist of it up from context, just. never heard those particular synonyms before. Wasn't sure if Kendrick had been watching "Fargo"...

HUMBLE is my one complaint about the album. It doesn't really fit on the album and that beat gets annoying pretty fast.

I can't stop listening to DNA. and XXX. DNA. is going to be my go to Kendrick song for working out for a long time but I think XXX. has the chance on the album to go down as an all time great Kendrick track.
