good kid, m.A.A.d city

Yeah, I, I think this one, I think Nosebleed, there's a lot of reasons why people love it.

Like, and you know, in a lot of ways it reminds me of Good Kid, M.A.A.D City as being like a record that is really easy for a large group of people to love, is because people fuck with the story.

Yep.

They fuck with like that cinematic idea-

So even if his wor- his worst album is still amazing.

I like GNX, I like, I like GNX more than Damn and more than, um, Good Kid, M.A.A.D City.

Wow.

I ain't mad at that.

We talking about a certified top five rap album of all time.

That's what we talking about.

Good Kid, M.A.A.D City is certified top five rap album all time.

Possibly, but they're gonna miss because you gotta think, the Grammys is only done in a set time.

Does that

actually count, though? Because it's a different genre, but with Kendrick Lamar, a lot of people count Good Kid, Mad City as his first album, even though Section 80 was underground and very popular.

They still count Good Kid as his first album.

That's weird.

I think whatever, like chronologically speaking, if I were to release an album, that would be my first album.

I do keep hearing Carville, where's the little guy? I'm okay with the little guy not dropping.

Never been a huge Kendrick fan since Good Kid, Mad City.

Good Kid, Mad City was special, but like we don't need more Kendrick.

I've been listening to a lot of just like old school stuff I used to listen to.

Like I was watching college football and I heard Party Like a Rockstar, banger, threw that on in the whip yesterday.

For those of you who don't follow the Grammys or aren't aware of Grammy history, there was a little bit of a debate between if he should have won or not.

And even Macklemore himself, if he were to hop on this podcast right now, would be like, no, Kendrick should have won for Good Kid Mad City, but, you know...

Yeah, because he texted Kendrick right after winning that award practically.

So hats off to Macklemore for being a gentleman and being like, hey, you should have won.

Yeah.

Over, he won Rap Album of the Year over Ma- uh, Good Kid, M.A.A.D City.

Yeah.

Oh, he paid for that.

Yo, if you in the studio with drum and classic and class can't come up with a rhyme, then maybe he just don't get on that song then.

but nobody's ever gonna be like oh you know what classic i'll write your verse don't worry about it just move out the way i'll write that for you no that's so somewhere along the line so i was trying to explain that to my young boy so like as time goes on or the same thing like is like yo y'all producers digging in the crate y'all get mad if we sample something new but y'all was sampling dennis edwards four years after he dropped it for paid and full and i'm like At the right You 100% right That wasn't a rule yet You know I'll never forget I'm listening to Good Kid Mad City And I hear The joint with Kendrick and Drake And I'm like Oh these niggas Sample Janet Anytime anyplace But here's the wild part That song was 20 years old When they sampled it so if we're if we're in that mindset it used to all the people watching always used to be this thing with producers like 20 years like is that that came out in 74 is 94 you can use it like this 20 year like it was this unwritten if it came from the 70s you could use it in the 90s but if i could have sampled some shit in 92 that just came out i can't sample i like by god that came out in 88 in 93 niggas be like yo what fuck maybe you just sampling god like we all know that like and that's what happened with the track masters that's when they were getting in trouble for just looping like that so again we didn't know the rules are great example too rock him comes out what i ain't no joke heavy d comes out with the overweight lovers in the house same james brown sax line i didn't know anybody who had a problem with that it's like i know djs who would mix the two together and it was like bet but god forbid if Gangstar came out with Masterpill, and then Pete Rock and CL Smooth came out using the same exact sample.

It'd be like, yo, what the fuck? This nigga Pete just bit Preem.

So again, I don't know how the rules change, but somehow, some way, the rules just change.
