    this nigga can’t disappoint

  2. Caesar says:

    AMAZING.

  3. M.T says:

    T-Minus on the beat! I wasnt expecting Kendrick to be on a T-Minus production but this shit is FIRE. One of the best rappers out… fuck all these other wack niggas.

  4. finally he got a good producer

  5. Word says:

    DRANK! This shit is smooth. Great track from Kendrick as usual.

    REPEAT REPEAT REPEAT.

  6. Mag says:

    Wow. Kendrick Lamar x T-Minus. This is superb.

  7. @tshiamofs says:

    Killing every thing comes standard to this dude

  8. kaybee says:

    Kendrick Lamar and Freddie Gibbs need to make a collabrative album or something

  9. Niyemortal says:

    The thing that sucks is that this is really really catchy plus has meaningful lyrics. This can get play on the radio, but its July. I hope he has another amazing single to that can keep the momentum going in the Fall in time for October.

  10. Ummah_es_Salaam says:

    zone out shit….k dot fans all thinking ‘oct, 22nd’s too far from right now’ …hoping on a classic & that interscope dont drop the ball

  11. Aggie Pride says:

    ^^^ What are you talking about all of his music was produce by good producers they’re just not well known. @Good Motherfuckin Music

    The song is dope. Kendrick is definitely winning.

  12. Brahsef says:

    Minus the synthy chorus its straight. That shit will get it radio play though.

  13. donald says:

    Dr.Dre told him that the 50 Cent was the last rapper he worked with who had the same feel in the studio. All Kendrick Lamar songs are good BUT honestly I dont think he will ever blow up as big as Snoop, Em & 50. DETOX IS COMING..

  14. z2 says:

    sorry guys this has no emotion next! kendric is dope too

  15. chuck taylor says:

    This is ok, I heard better from kendrick lamar, I’m sorry I’m not a kdot dickrider

  16. Dashing says:

    This is cool….

    But maybe my Kendrick standards are too high now. Expected a little more. T-Minus has done better. And Kendrick has done better.

    Here’s hoping that the rest of the album sounds a little more like Section 80. (i.e. more straight hip hop mixed with musicality, less synth heavy and typical)

  17. PPrrootteesstt says:

    If this is the direction of the album, it could be really promising. I wish he would’ve dug a little deeper into the topic, but I like how he played with the subject. The verses speak negatively of drinking, but the hook praises it. Everyone wins.

  18. D!A!E! says:

    Guess who’s getting throwed to this tonight?…..THIS GUY!

  19. kriz says:

    Dope. people support his album when it drops this is quality shit.

  20. Drake's Eyebrows says:

    not for me

  21. Truu says:

    22nd?? I thought it was coming out on the 2nd, my birthday now it’s coming out on the 22nd. My ex’s birthday. I’m salty.

  22. Black Shady says:

    This is smoothhhhhh as hell!!!!!

  23. B.Dot says:

    @chuck taylor: This is ok, I heard better from kendrick lamar, I’m sorry I’m not a kdot dickrider

    ^
    i agree

  24. Kali says:

    pretty gud

  25. Victor Von DOOM says:

    Dope,surprised YOU KNOW WHO didn’t hate on this song lol

  26. CaliSteppin says:

    Give Kendrick credit hes made 2 singles (recipe and this joint) that are radio friendly but he sticked to his craft. Both of those songs don’t sound out of place for Kendrick

  27. Frank ocean says:

    Ill suck his dick clean.

  28. ayyeee says:

    gotta wait till im done with my drug test….so i can jam to this!

  29. 1980 MY POPS NUTTED says:

    he’s better than andre 3000

  30. D says:

    daaaaaawg..

    this kendrick guy is really the next one

  31. kayandgee says:

    dope

  32. Dabest says:

    fuego!!! this and tha nas album will be the best

  33. Larry says:

    heard better from kendrick. not sure if interscope was the right move.

  34. SjjR says:

    With how hip-hop is at this minute at time, this dude has gotta be in the top 3 rappers living. Just cus he absolutely kills EVERYTHING he’s on, most consistent rapper out there!

  35. Kemosabi says:

    This is what I mean with hiphop! It doesn’t always have to be the greatest song of all time, this is fire. Dude set the bar so high he’s really only competing with past efforts now. That’s incredible when you really think about. Sometimes I think some people just want to complain about hiphop instead of just appreciating niggas giving it there all.

  36. Anon DCPL says:

    Not bad.. I can bump this.

  37. Anon DCPL says:

    Kemosabi, I agree.

  38. hazz says:

    saying you’ve heard better from Kendrick means you have him in a box when hes not even the artist you think he is… this will do what he feels and hopefully his fans will ride with him.

    half the songs he has made so far are on another planet compared to what is hot these days.

  39. hxxvaz says:

    Fuck this song. T-Minus beats ain’t made for west coast niggas. I just wanna hear the album

  40. deez says:

    lol kendrick do really kill everything he gets on, some songs are great some are good some are decent, but there aren’t many “bad” songs…lmao @ b.dot trying to go against the grain..and yeah dont’t hit me with that “i was the first to hear of k.dot talents” bullshit becuz 2dopeboyz was the first to post his shit..

  41. Word says:

    @B.Dot Wtf is wrong with you? First you brag at every chance you get that you’re the one that “Broke Kendrick to the rest of the world” which I laugh at every time cuz you want ppl to think your responsible for Kendricks popularity when you’re really not, but now dues are listening to him and what? You mad? Your tweets and comments sound salty.

  42. Word says:

    @deez EXACTLY! So im not the only one who noticed. This dudes feelins must be hurt or something. K.Dot forget to autograph something for you? Maybe he not giving you credit for being the “First to hear of K.Dots talents”? Hm?

  43. zee says:

    album is still set for the 2nd not 22nd….dope song too

  44. Cruel Thing says:

    God damn, this is fire! It’s a great mix of radio-friendliness and raw rapping. I can’t think of how this could have been executed better.

  45. C.O.O.K. says:

    Just incredible. Perfect combination of lyrics and production. Beat bangs and message in the verse.

  46. cruz00005 says:

    lol yall gettin on B.Dot. but yea this shit goes

  47. mitch says:

    LOL @ everybody clowning on B.Dot’s failed attempt to “be different”. i dont like the weird ass voice change in the second verse, but other than that, song is Dope
