May 13, 2022Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers is melodic, versatile, intimate, classy and personal
-
May 15, 2022It should not be underestimated of how lucky it is to experience a moment in time, when beautiful art like this graces the earth and is so fresh and new. 10.
-
May 13, 2022We waited 5 years for this and Kendrick Lamar has delivered a profound statement that
will take many listens to understand fully. The production goes hard and its really well done.
I would hve to say this album is a 9 for me. Some tracks I wasn't feeling as much but
for the most part this album is consistently great. Theres a reason K Dot is one of the greats. -
May 13, 2022This man is simply put cut from a different cloth. Greatest Rapper of All Time
-
May 15, 2022Beautiful production, flows and lyrics. It's very introspective and unique.

May 14, 2022This album is such a impressive and complex creation that it's really hard to say something constructive about it. It's simply different, it seems to be to eccentric for a mainstream artist which only works in it's favour and helps with creating an instant classic. Kendrick proved once again that he is the GOAT
-
May 19, 2022A beautifully crafted masterpiece that touches on social issues that are considered taboo in the black community.
-

-
May 15, 2022Amazing! Mr Lamar did it again, what a honest well composed album! On repeat!
-
May 13, 2022This album is sublime, the wait is over and the great Kendrick Lamar returns with a powerful album and a very precise concept. The lyrics, the production are perfect and innovative. This is the big comeback of my favorite rapper...
-
May 18, 2022If you think this album ain't great, work on yourself. Because this doesn't sound the way you expected doesn't make it less of a classic.
-
May 19, 2022A deep album about generational trauma, domestic abuse, and several other social factors considered taboo in the black community. Definitely worth listening to (especially more than once).
-
May 17, 2022One of the most thoughtful and self reflective albums I’ve ever heard. Among Kendrick’s best.
-
Jun 5, 2022Even though some songs were getting boring at time, the lyrics are very powerful, I can surely tell that "Father Time" was my favourite out of all, great delivery of Kendrick's thoughts, 9/10 in total.
-
May 14, 2022Sounds like a perfect/no skips album to me. Totally worth the wait, lyrics and instrumentals are just magical
-
May 18, 2022Well worth the wait. A one of a kind talent showcasing why he is the absolute greatest rapper on the planet right now. His storytelling elevates the art form itself, and this might be my third favorite Kendrick album, he is truly a gift to art and music.
-
May 14, 2022Another Masterpiece for Oklama, Less accessible than DAMN. But great album too !
-
May 15, 2022amazing album, different from most of what we get today in the rap game. people complain that it doesn’t have any “bangers” as if every album needs to be mainstream.
-
May 15, 2022Simplemente hermoso, comprendo que no a todos les parezca el mejor álbum o nisiquiera un buen álbum pero el mensaje, la producción, la escritura, todo está en otro nivel, con cada vez que lo oigo se vuelve aún mejor.

-
May 16, 2022Nobody can do what Kendrick did. Again. This man is not able to bring out a bad album.
-
May 13, 2022definitely we underrated baby keem’s style and hope this album let everybody know how influential baby keem is
-
May 13, 2022A magnificent display of versatility of Kung Fu Kenny , Becoming Kung Fu Hip Hop master and in which we as the listeners get to give the artist their "Flowers" or respect for a job well done beforehand , A display of the true state of the art .

Dec 14, 2022As always, Kendricks perfomance on this album is interesting, thought-provoking and mind-blowing. He goes deeper on the topics of fatherhood, trauma and depression. Some of my favorites are father time, n95, count me out, mr morale and rich spirit
-
May 15, 2022Tracklist is really solid, album helps to humanize Kendrick in a way never quite seen before. Tackled many touchy/deep subjects in an astounding fashion. As close to perfect as an album can get.
-
May 15, 2022Worth the wait, such a complex artist with universal ideas and a pure heart. Genius piece of work from the best artist of his generation.
-
May 14, 2022Kendrick Lamar returns with another triumphant victory with Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers. The themes on this album are incredibly deep and a emotional story is told. The long wait was worth it.
-
May 15, 2022

Jun 21, 2022A thoughtful and catchy album full of emotion. Kendrick hits it out of the park again with this musical masterpiece.
-

-
May 13, 2022This album plays like a Theatrical play. Deep and Dense. I put it behind TPAB, Section 80 and GKMC.

-
May 17, 2022RATING: 81%
While not his most consistent, Kendrick Lamar returns with a catchy album with some intelligent lyrics and well-produced beats. -
May 16, 2022An album with layers and layers of meaning. This is a seminal album for Hip Hop as a whole, touching on subjects taboo to the culture and the world at large.
-

-
May 13, 2022Mr. Morale and The Big Steppers is an amazing album that takes a while to get in it’s groove, but when it does, it’s absolutely glorious.
-
May 15, 2022F**k, this is just perfect, it make me feels like i have either daddy issues, wtf, this man is unbelievable
-
May 14, 2022Mais um clássico para sua discografia. Kendrick prova a cada trabalho que merece sim um lugar de respeito no Olimpo do Hip-Hop e de toda Blackmusic. Um trabalho consistente e uma discografia invejável, esse ultimo projeto mostra toda sua experiência artística adquirida com o tempo e como utilizar suas influências da forma mais correta e saudável possível.
-
May 16, 2022This album had me confused at first (honestly, it still does) but the more I listen, the more I love it.
-
May 21, 2022Not kendricks best work but extremely daring and different. Had a rough time with it first listen but I let it sit for a bit and revisited the project with a 2nd listen overall kennys 3rd best project
-
Jun 2, 2022The heavier theme and minimal sound composition made Kendrick Lamar even better.

May 16, 2022Album of the year so far. It's hard to judge Kendrick so soon, but so far I'm loving this album. I'm a Weeknd fan, and prefer this overall to Dawn FM, which I think is a great album.
Production is thoughtful and masterful. You can hear in Baby Keem influence even in songs where he is not on vocals. -
May 26, 2022Look yall... Its a 10 and it will be a 10 in 10 years... Full review to follow

Jun 25, 2022An incredible album with even better lyricism, kendrick gets even more personal then he ever has before.
best song: father time
worst song: we cry together -
May 14, 2022Perfect album I love everything about it was worth the wait and I suggest listening to it more than 1 time to catch everything, the beat, the lyrics everything is phenomenal.

May 16, 2022Another masterpiece by Pulitzer prize winner, Kendrick Lamar, Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers, Kendrick lets us in on the trials and tribulations of his stardom and his human struggles within and leaves us with what’s sure to be remembered as Kendrick's most personal albums.
-
May 14, 2022
-
May 16, 2022Looks like Kendrick has won over the liberal media bias, because this album isn't a 100. As a matter of fact, it's possibly his worst album. There are good songs on this album, but it's few and far between. It doesn't matter how strong your "message" is if the music is lacking. After all, this is supposed to be music right? Not an audiobook.
-

-
May 14, 2022Nice music to my ears, the other great rappers should be proud of this album
-
May 13, 2022
-
May 13, 2022Very experimental album from K.Dot in my opinion.We have many classical music vibes,many piano sequences.Is it a masterpiece?I can't tell,time will say.But it is really interesting album and new kind of rap vibe from Kendrick.I wish it is just a begining of Kendrick's return on stage.Oh!and kodak black? He's not that bad as many could think;)

May 13, 2022A profound album worked with the heart, It's like been on a theater play...
-
May 16, 2022If I'm being honest, the first listen was not what I was expecting and it felt like this album was going to be a flop!!! but after listening to it the third time production level is unmatched. This album feels very very personal and I can genuinely say that this is Kendricks's most mature & vulnerable project to this day.
-
May 13, 2022‘Mr Morale & The Big Steppers’ - Great addition to Kendricks discography. An amazing raw sound and he once again proves why he’s one of the best to ever do it.
-
May 13, 2022the wait was long but the work was rewarding. Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers is an instant classic!
-
May 13, 2022His most introspective work. Different in so many ways than the previous works but still great in its own right. Took me 3-4 listens to fully grasps and enjoy what I was hearing

May 13, 2022It took me halfway through my second listen to realize how smart these albums are. They're both beautify mixed and written, and show a willingness from Kendrick to open up completely. I'm so happy with the direction he decided to take this, these are easily my favorites projects from him, right up there with TPAB.
-
May 14, 2022His most personal and profound album yet. When he could dropped an album solidifying his supremacy in the rap game, he chose to deconstruct his revered persona and find healing in front of the whole world.

May 13, 2022a produção experimentalista + o lirismo incrível que já de tornou comum de se associar a kendrick só mostrar como este é um projeto especial
-
May 13, 2022
-
May 13, 2022A pesar de las barreras lingüísticas, he podido comprender el mensaje que deja en cada una de sus canciones, y debo decir, que es profundo, crudo y liberador. Su lírica y story-telling siempre está a otro nivel. También, debo decir que a nivel de producción es el mejor álbum en ese sentido, nunca deja de innovar y hacer algo diferente.
-

-
May 13, 2022We are witnessing Kendrick’s attainment of catharsis in the package of a phenomenally produced, sonically diverse, and deeply thought provoking hour and fourteen minute soul bearing proclamation.
-
May 13, 2022Better poetry than music, Kendrick's new album focuses heavily on lyricism, but without the strong melodies of his prior albums.
-
May 13, 2022Such a good addition to his discography. Very personal and emotional; one of his best.
-
May 13, 2022Astonishing, challenging, vulnerable and lyrical. Kendrick never fails to keep me on the edge of my seat.

May 14, 2022Kendrick Lamar is starting to feel like an even deeper version of Bob Dylan, Joni Mitchell and Leonard Cohen all put together as a songwriter. I would say there are less catchy commercial hits and I dont mind it at all. The album flow is amazing and it gets better with each playthrough as I am able to notice more and more of the lyrical intricacies. Easy 10
-
May 14, 2022Simply a master piece, the wait has a reason, kendrick did it, an beautiful painting as a music album
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]
