The people who didn't love TPAB will definitely be happy.

Then again I think TPAB is incredible and I'm loving this one so far.

Re: Kendrick Lamar is better than Soundgarden
I think DNA, Element, Feel, XXX, and Fear are early stand outs. Only two listens in, though. I'm sure this will change constantly.
Internet is ablaze with rumors of a second album coming on Sunday.

Or at least the first 3 minutes.

Re: Kendrick Lamar is better than Soundgarden
On "ELEMENT." right now. This album fucking slays. Makes his other stuff looks like child's play. Part of what made me hesitant to embrace him before was the lack of forward-looking musical vision. But this sounds totally visionary. One of my friends called it "future music," which I think is right on the money. This is gonna influence other music in big ways.

Well, "XXX." is definitely the best song U2 has ever been involved with.

Loyalty.
This has a very high chance of ending up as my favorite Kendrick album.
