Dec 20, 2022this album is actually amazing but I just want Denzel higher, remember that this is so good and near perfect, don't mind the score

May 13, 2022To pimp a butterfly on a Molly comedown.
Full of heart and soul it seems, however none of the heart and soul that existed within him in albums prior. That guy's gone. -

May 13, 2022I listened to the album multiple times and I just was not impressed. It seems like a huge step down from Kendrick's last album. There was a few good songs but way too many skips.

May 13, 2022i fell asleep in my lesson to this but then woke up to kendrick saying hed dick my dick on we cry together. so then i felt repent to jesus so i gave it a 10

May 13, 2022Underwhelming. His lyricism is always top tier but the production on this album is monotone and nothing new. I will be listening to it again and I hope it grows on me because as a huge fan of his previous albums, I want to love this.

May 13, 2022i don't really like it nearly as much as other albums, some songs like the kodak interludes are either long or just unnecessary and the first half is really bad at times, seconds half's pre good tho but this 0 is just for the first half

May 13, 2022Sooooo underwhelming oh my GOD.. waited over 5 years for Kendrick’s return and it seems like he hasnt grown a single bit as an artist over the last 5 years. The production is subpar, the rapping is subpar, the features were disappointing, it lacks originality and it doesnt compare to any of his previous work. Easily his worst project.
-
May 13, 2022The album is terrible and definitely his worst. Anyone calling it good is d*ckriding.

May 13, 2022this was disappointing. 5 years and kendrick gave us boring trap-rap. Sounds like scrapped songs off of Baby Keem's "The Melodic Blue". Anyone could've made this album, its dull.

May 13, 2022Homophobic slurs were said. Bad overrated album,, also I won't support anybody who offends the lgbtqia+ community.

May 13, 2022I'm in tears. This is the biggest let down of my my entire life. I can't believe I wasted 5 years of my life anticipating this for nothing.

May 19, 2022Quite underwhelming, I can always appreciate artists doing their own thing and expressing it in the way they feel comfortable in, but this album falls very flat for me. A lot of the songs sound the same instrumentally and compared to Section 80, Good kid and TPAB this is very very far from his best work. I don't hate the album at all, I just don´t like it. hopefully the next one is great :)

Jun 7, 2022Just logging in to give this junk a low score in a vain attempt to let the rap obsessed know their idol has no clothes on.

May 14, 2022Estou completamente extasiado após ouvir o disco, o Kendrick mais uma vez soube inovar e e entregar uma completa obra de arte.
-
May 13, 2022Maybe my copy was bootlegged, but this album is garbage. Noise, lame lyrics, boring, a million light-years away from Lamar's best work to date, "To Pimp A Butterfly". Not sure what the "experts" are hearing to give this a 100, not even close. The hype definitely driving these ratings, because it can't be the music.

May 13, 2022This album is a bit of a disappointment. No bangers or anthems like past albums. Most songs are sad and depressing but don’t cover any new ground. We Cry Together is by far the worst song I’ve heard in years. There are a few decent tracks here but overall this is Kendrick’s worst album by far.
-
May 13, 2022I see what he was trying to do with this album but it was completely off the mark. A lot of topics could of been presented way better and they just weren’t. There were also certain things he shouldn’t have said, no matter why he said them or what point he was trying to get across. It just wasn’t cohesive.
-
May 13, 2022to be kendrick lamar if it's too bad , I am quite disappointed, he raps as if he were speaking, it is not innovative, he focuses more on his lyrics than on his production
-
May 13, 2022I think you should do better ! But obviously you didn’t. I start to wait for the next album.
-
May 13, 2022El mejor álbum del mundo, es lo mejor, MOTOMAMI es bueno como este, te enamoras de principio a fin, estos 2 álbumes salvaron el 2022, escuchen la pista 5 la mejor

May 14, 2022After a long wait this album felt under-par for Kendrick. Nothing really stuck out to me other than the more sensitive songs but as songs they're unfortunately not that great. Massive Kendrick fan so really let down by this.
-
May 14, 2022Trash, the same **** of TPAB kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk
-
May 14, 2022Meh. Big Kendrick fan. I understood what he was rapping about and stuff, but wasn’t really feeling this album. I didn’t think it sounded very melodic.
-
May 14, 2022Yall call this music? Dude isn't even rapping on beat

Jun 20, 2022By far the most compelling persona on Mr Morale & The Big Steppers is the Kendrick who is trying to make sense of his own family. ... ["Mother I Sober" is] a tour de force, almost but not quite as revelatory as "DUCKWORTH", a similar family saga off 2017's DAMN. And the best moment is when the strings swell and Lamar's voice changes. [Aug 2022, p.24]
-
Jun 17, 2022Through over 70 minutes of Lamar’s latest, every facet of life for the young Compton rapper is held up to the light. Love, pain, hope, despair, triumph, defeat, it’s all there. ... He’s a rapper who understands rapping is more than just a good beat, a good punchline, or a good vocal tone. He’s blessed to have all of that but he takes the platform he got from it and makes art that will last a lifetime.

The WireJun 15, 2022Introspective, emotionally charged pieces such as “Father Time”, “We Cry Together” and “Savior” provide high – or jarring – points on the record, but elsewhere there are periods of lull absent on previous efforts. ... As sonically impressive as his latest album may be, his approach to the topics under discussion doesn’t feel sufficiently thought out. [Jul 2022, p.48]
