171307, I didn't hate it. ''Animals'' is dope (PREMO!). K. Lamar is the man

Unlike what seems like the past 10-15 years of Dre beats, I wasn't hearing super-sterile mix, slow, heavy piano chord and string beats or quirky, circus sideshow Eminem stuff. It sounded good and I might even eff with an instrumental version of this album.

As noted by others, I didn't like all the yelling, screaming, and strained/emotional vocals.

Off one listen it's a good, 3 outta 5 mic type album.

I'm surprised there isn't really any obvious radio/club hits or joints that will enter the West Coast Classic canon. If this was someone who dropped albums every 1 to 2 years this release would make more "sense" to me. It's well produced and a good listen, screaming vocals aside. But as his first album in 16 years and possibly last release ever, it's an odd way to go out.

I don't like the beat anymore because its just a loop. ALC didn't FLIP IT ENOUGH!
