    its just way too generic for Kendrick's standards. Its a good debut for all the other artists though.

    Critics call Kendrick Lamar a Hip-Hop genius, I don't see it, a lot of the songs felt really uninspired.

    Didn't feel as much as a power album. Kinda bland, but with the exception of a few songs. Nothing really special about it.

    It’s not a bad record--if nothing else it goes some way to atoning for the disappointment of AC/DC rather than Ghostface landing on the Iron Man 2 soundtrack--but it could have been so much more. [Apr 2018, p.50]

    Black Panther: The Album is an instantly enjoyable project that allows its featured artists to shine under the watchful eyes and ears of Kendrick Lamar.

    For all the deft, varied professionalism on display here, Lamar’s omnipresence on Black Panther: The Album might be its most compelling feature.
