I agree with this too. I had to WORK to appreciate GKMC, mostly cuz I prefer more "challenging," dark, dense shit. but once I did, I realized just how good Kendrick is--he made a very accessible, popular album that was just as artistically dense. he made everyone happy, basically, on his "first" try.

but you're right, no compromises at all with TPAB. Kendrick with no filter or filler!!!
