Holy fucking WOW man! Kanye to No. 2 with a bullet! Must have made one hell of a second impression!!! Psyched as all hell to see this. Warms my heart. In fact, I kinda feel like my heart has been thawed after 8 months of being in the freezer, like a hunk of venison.
Happy to see Kendrick back on there as well. I don't know that I personally view untitled unmastered. as a proper "album" (I used to, and it definitely has enough quality moments to warrant such consideration, especially when weighed against the rest of the year's hip-hop), but now I guess I see it as more of a TPAB companion EP. If only because of how brief it is, and how one of the songs is just kind of a throwaway reprise of an earlier song.
