Dr. Dre co-signs don’t come everyday. So when Kendrick Lamar released his independent album Section.80, best believe, all eyes were on him. Fortunately, he didn’t disappoint. From a production standpoint, scattered pianos anchor “Fuck Your Ethnicity” while lounging horns permeate “Hol’ Up”. Elsewhere, “Chapter Six” and “Rigamortis” locks down K-Dot’s unchained melody. “Ronald Regan Era” made being an 80’s baby not so bad. Kendrick said Section .80 was created following a vision from 2Pac, so Afeni’s baby boy would be proud of “Kiesha’s Song” (“She start running like FLo-Jo/ Don’t care if they Joe Blow/ If they got money to blow a blow job is a sure go.”). Make no mistake, this revolutionary MC will be televised. Welcome to Section.80.

Cant wait to see number 5
You going to learn today -_-
A little low. Incredible album. Now I better see Camp.
this was awesome only great things coming from kendrick
Wow this Is so wrong 6? More like 1
Section 80 and Cole World lose to Take Care and Carter 4?
yea ok ……………………….. RapRetards
CAMP #1
its supposed to be…
1. WTT
2. S80
3. Take Care
4. ColeWorld
I like MMG, but Self Made was not better than any of those 4
this should have been #3 and is much better than bad meets evil
This is #1 album of the year but we’re also watching the list of a commercial rap blog so we have to accept Take Care, WTT and MMG before anything.
Personally, my # 1 album of last year…
West Coast Bias!
Come on RR. I understand yalong can’t put less popular albums on top 5 but yall coulda made an exception for Cole and Kendrick these albums were top 5! But y’all wanna put Em Ross Jay up there when theyre albums weren’t better than Coles and Kendrick.
You wanna talk sales? Cole shitted on mmg album. I swear if that shit is top 5 imma go off cuz it was dope but not better than any album y’all posted so far except maybe Mac Millers shit.
Personally it was top 3, the guy’s young and wise beyond his age…It is rare these days to walk in the shoes of the ghetto poet (Nas, Pac…) and K. does it very well.
A star to follow….
KENDRICK lyrically and flow wise FUCK yo fav rappers asshole!! WAY better then MMG FUCK YOU SITE
lol once again yall tripping. This album is too good to be #6.
This blog is officially a joke by putting this at # 6.
How this didn’t make the top three is beyond me….Self Made above this? Smh
ALL YALL FUCKIN COMPLAINING THEN WHY DON’T YALL GO OUT AND BUY THE FUCKIN ALBUM!!!! HE SOLD LESS THEN EVERYONE IN THE TOP TEN AND HE HAD NO SINGLES THAT CHARTED THE FACT THAT HE’S 6 ON THIS LIST IS A COMPLIMENT TO HOW GOOD A RAPPER HE IS BUT U CAN’T PUT HIM HIGHER UP UNLESS IT ACTUALLY DID NUMBERS U FUCKIN IDIOTS
This was a great album.Loved it

#6? Thats Disgustin & Insultin’…He Clearly Has The #1 Album Without Radio Play.
Kendrick lamars music could be so much more appealing if he didnt have such a boring voice. I agree…he has amazing lyrics and i heard his album plenty of times. Just gets kind of boring. This dude and Nas should make several tracks together. East and west. That versethat Nas has on rick ross’ mixtape is fucking RAW! Just sayin
