May 13, 2022Amazing, a masterpiece, it's a vulnerable side of Kendrick, talking about maturity, black parenting and relationship, it's deep and important

May 13, 2022As a new addition into Kendrick discography this is a 10/10. Ever song gives joy and an expansion of the mind.
-
May 13, 2022I was beyond impressed with this album. A musical journey from Track 1 - 18, with powerful instrumentals, vocals, and messaging regarding grief, introspection, and aspects of modern culture. Worth repeated listens and an instant classic!

May 13, 2022New **** new kung fu kenny! For real though this is **** amazing, please please listen
-
May 13, 2022Sometimes an artist shift in a way that makes us feel uncomfortable or overlooked as fans of their art. I always welcome when an artist makes music for them and not us. Kendrick continues to show us how self dedicated he is. This isn't music...it's performance art over a beat. Cheers
-
May 13, 2022This album is genius. It's not what I expected which keeps it fresh and gives it replay value. It's such a well crafted and heavy album executed at the highest standard. oklama gets a 9 from me. We need this in modern rap.
-
May 13, 2022Another masterpiece, Kendrick Lamar never disappoints, the music composed is excellent, and the lyrics are even more, this album was really, really good
-
May 13, 2022una obra maestra de pie a cabeza, es increíble lo que logra trasmitir! todas las canciones conectan con el oyente.

May 13, 2022It's incredible how he combines different topics and different styles on that album.
-
May 14, 2022There's nothing to say. This album is ***ing perfect. Song 8 is so much fun.

May 14, 2022El mejor álbum que he escuchado en mi vida, maldita sea es tan perfecto, desde N95 hasta Wey Cry Together, simplemente perfecto
-
May 14, 2022Incredibile album, i will say that is maybe even better than tpabf, the first disc off the album contains incredible tracks such as we cry togheter, the second disc has a sound less jazzy but it's still incredible.
-
May 14, 2022Another inscrutable opus from Compton's finest. This is what we've been waiting for.
-
May 14, 2022Outstanding storytelling and messages provided in this masterpiece of an album .
-
May 14, 2022Best album in History. So inspirational, so emotional, so true. He is the most real artist after Tupacs death.
-
May 14, 2022This album is only but a confirmation that Mr. Morale actually achieved the breakthrough that he claims in his psychological exploration of his psyche. Despite few moments of awkwardness of the beats and rhymes of some tracks, MMTBS is nothing less than a masterpiece that's well thought out and executed. The world should be glad that he took his time to grow before saying something again.

May 14, 2022Incredible production, mix, themes, the album is dense so you need some listen to understand it and appreciate it.
-
May 14, 2022Kendrick Lamar’s most raw, personal, emotional album.
Kendrick is a human being with flaws and he is not anyones savior. -
May 14, 2022
-
May 14, 2022I've listened to this front to back and I love it. I know it doesn't have a stand out hit song or songs like DAMN. but it's more of a continuous look in how he sees the world and how he got to that viewpoint and I like that. N95 is great too.
-
May 14, 2022
-
May 14, 2022Breathtaking. Just, breathtaking. The amount of emotion in each song, the lyricism as always. Amazing
-
May 14, 2022Better than DAMN. Honestly people are just hating tl hate. This album is simply amazing
-
May 14, 2022Still too early to process the album. Only time can tell how this album preforms. It's his deepest album, almost like a therapy session for him, as he reveals the struggles of his past and how they still haunt him. Superb mix of deep songs (Mother I Sober) and hype songs (N95) which all deliver.
-
May 15, 2022After more than five years finally a new Kendrick album, it was an amazing project, and i hope some more of this new Kendrick style can come out more often.
-
May 15, 2022Absolutely fantastic album, tackling many real world issues and getting really serious at times. Kendrick never misses.
-
May 15, 2022Man, Kendrick has done it again. This album was so immersive, and a lot of songs were that real **** Mirror, crown, rich spirit, aunties diaries, silent hill, savior, we cry together and united in grief are my favourites
-

May 15, 2022simply amazing. every listen it gets better and better to the point where i think it might be my favorite Kendrick album.
-
May 15, 2022SUCH a great album. Even lowkey better than DAMN. and that was one of my favorite albums of all time! The beats are great, Kendrick performs ridiculous flows, the lyrics are immaculate and the variation is good enough. Absolutely no skips and overall the best album we have had in a few years!
-
May 15, 2022This record is Kendrick's most personal. It delves in the concepts of therapy, toxic relationships, bad parenting, and much more. Kendrick is back and the hiatus was worth it.
-
May 15, 2022Como era de esperarse, Kendrick saco un álbum con excelente lirica y producción, las canciones expresan sentimiento por parte de ambos sectores, sin duda uno de los favoritos al AOTY.
-
May 16, 2022experimental, creative and inspirational. In some ways, DAMN. remains top tier, but that doesn't mean that this album is not as good as the previous album
-
May 16, 2022it’s one of the best albums that i've heard in all my life, is simply a masterpiece.
-
May 16, 2022Hearing Kendrick get so personal on this album was a real treat, just getting a deeper dive into his life and he dealt with quite a few heavy topics on this album, however I feel like his soundscape suffered a bit from the focus on his message, songs like Mr. Morale sound like they came straight from Black Panther. Overall great album and probably Kendrick’s 3rd best.
-
May 16, 2022This is Kendrick’s most personal album yet, he lays it all out from his childhood trauma to his current mental state. He touches on many important topics in really hard hitting ways and it’s so beautiful to see such a massive artist unshackling themselves from preconceived notion’s and being so… human.
-
May 14, 2022
-
May 13, 2022This album undoubtedly is the album of the year, appreciate 5 years of absence of a big album which combine his previous albums, just a masterpiece
-
May 13, 2022Flawless one, Kendrick takes one step forward every album he drops. Production, lyrics, order of the album. Perfection at its peak.
-
May 13, 2022Worth the awaiting Lamar delivers his most emotional album, he goes deeper and deeper into the human psyche with a lot of heart. One of his best wait sorry his best ?
-
May 13, 2022A brutally honest album... Best album we've heard since Fiona Apple's Fetch The BoltCutters...
-
May 13, 2022Its fire, Kendrick is back with the fire, feeling free and experiment with new sounds for his music
-

-
May 13, 2022One of the best hip hop albums released and a very pleasurable listening experience.
-
May 13, 2022It is an album with celestial notes and lyrics written by the gods outside this plane. Kendrick Lamar has the power to do this, he definitely deserves to be album of the year
-
May 13, 2022The King of Rap never disappoints. This album has saved hip hop because I have been less than impressed by recent music.
-
May 13, 2022This is a certified masterpiece. Kendrick Lamar has literally outdone himself with this one. It's possibly his best ever album to date.
-
May 13, 2022Kendrick Lamar... What else is there to say, fans are once again given one of the greatest albums of the generation. It's just the expectation for K-Dot. No song on this album lets it down and they are all near-perfect songs
-
May 13, 2022
-
May 13, 2022Kendrick continues to do what no one else does, the greatest artist of our time.
-
May 13, 2022Kendrick rebuking outdated homophobic religious views and instead choosing humanity while also addressing generational trauma and sexual abuse yea..stop playin hes that guy!
-

May 13, 2022
-
May 13, 2022Kendrick is breaking new ground and crushing the stereotype of what a rapper and hip hop artist can be. The fact that he somehow continues to do this after several highly regarded albums is a testament of how dedicated he is to his craft as an artist. I would say that Mr. Morale and the Big Steppers is peak Kendrick Lamar..
But that would imply that Kendrick has a peak. -
May 13, 2022
-
May 13, 2022The highs are high and the lows are low. It's not a 5 star or a perfect album. While it has some of his best work, it also had skippable moments. Wish I liked it more.
-
May 13, 2022
-
May 13, 2022The five years wait was worth the wait as Kendrick gave us a perfect album.
-
May 13, 2022An outstanding LP that will eventually with time become his best album since TPAB
-
May 13, 2022The introspective is really incredible in this album. Another work from Kendrick that is completely unlike the others. This one will take some time to digest for most to fully appreciate it.
-
May 16, 2022Album is just kinda mid. crowns is nothing but Kendrick saying he can't please everyone and we cry together is just a argument over a beat (Edit) I listened to the album again its pretty good ignore the first review except for the part about Crowns and We Cry Together I still believe.
-
May 13, 2022A classic album by a legendary musician. Its a journey in the mind of one of the greatest while he shares his vulnerabilities and sacrifice his ego for the greater good . I am.All of us .
-
May 14, 2022Masterpiece, nothing more nothing less. From the overall production, to the song song writing everything is just impeccable.
-
May 14, 2022
-
May 13, 2022Just wow. Kendrick is truly the goat, the features are perfect, the instrumental, lyrics everything about the album is magical
-
May 13, 2022We can appreciate a very free, vulnerable and personal Kendrick project. The way he describes and shows each of his own traumas and personal histories on his own way in a very well produced musical sound a very deep project.

May 14, 2022This album sure is different from Kdot's previous albums. While the public opinion has been split about it, i personally really like it. The production is good and Kendrick's performance is amazing as always. The thing that stood out to me the most was the multiple appearances of Kodak Black on the album

Jul 5, 2022The third classic Kendrick album so far, together with tpab and gkmc. The poetry, storytelling arc, beats and production are tremendous. The heart PT 5, Father Time, saviour and Mr Morale are my personal favourites but there isn't a track that is less than excellent. He isn't just a studio act either - watch the Glastonbury set.
-
May 14, 2022A living legend, Kendrick proves to be one of the most captivating storytellers music has ever seen, able to implement and blend so much different sound and subject matter into one album.
-
May 13, 2022

May 16, 2022So much worth in lyrics, legend that is going to be seen from this day to eternity in a way that all those other legends that never die.

May 16, 2022Will be known as of the decade's best, no doubt. Don't need to say anything else than this, guys, just listen to it.
-
May 15, 2022This man keeps putting out classic albums, easy AOTY vibes. Feels like a lot like TPAB
-
May 13, 2022Honestly I was expecting something different but god, oh my god, Kendrick you are the goat, beats, lyrics, I love every song.
Atm my fav song is Die Hard -
May 19, 2022Been travelling on several planes and trains across Europe so have listened to this album in full 20 times at least. K. Dot just does something for me that a lot of others cannot.
He is a master of actually creating an album instead of a collection of songs which is rare these days. Another master piece with a lot of risks taken. -

May 14, 2022Big steppin, biiiiiiiiiiiiig steppin, Best album, album of the year, album of the decade.
-
May 14, 2022Com certeza um dos melhores álbuns nos últimos 5 anos, só perdendo pra ele mesmo em DAMN.

Awards & Rankings

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]
