    Managed to get a quick listen to it on the way to work this morning and another one the way home.

    It's incredible. Tough job to follow G.K.M.C but he's done one hell of a job here.

    GKMC was incredible.

    Great surprise to wake up this morning to see the album released early. Gonna give the album a listen tonight hopefully. He set the bar way too high with GKMC but going by early reviews he might have actually matched it.

    The Blacker The Berry was an excellent single.

    if it's all as intense as that it should be great.

    I've listened to it 5 times now. I like it a lot. This level of social commentary has been missing from mainstream rap for a while. Kendrick really is one of the best of the new school. The way the album begin and ends is perfect.

    Kendrick hits the top spot in the album charts. Didn't realise he was that popular!

    It's a good album, i'm not convinced it has as many solid tunes as GKMC, but it hangs together as an album really well, and i like the jazz stuff.

    Love it. Rarely does an album come round that I instantly like. Forward thinking whilst taking the past and running with it. A true multiple listen album. Could get continuous play in the car for the next 3 months!

    Many a modern day artist could take a thing or two from this album.

    Yes, i will look forward to listening to this. My sister is huge fan of his and some of the work he has done on the past is good.

    Only just got round to listening to this album. Wow. Incredible. I listened to a couple of tracks by Drake & Jay-Z afterwards (both of whom I'm a fan of) and they just paled in comparison. 'Mortal Man' is quite eerie but I like it, good finisher.
