dope
THAT NIGGA STILL GOT THE SAME HEAD !
OUTSIDE OF ROSS, KENDRICK IS THE ONLY NIGGA THAT I SEE CARRYING THE TORCH ( not the mmg weed carrier ) FOR REAL HIP HOP IN THE FUTURE
St. Ides & a baby bottle #Classic
The cover looks like when they said in menace to society ” give that lil nigga a drink”
haahahahaah love itttt
I think it’s great. It’s honest.
Cool.
this gonna b epic.. think kendrick should do a song with this dude… http://youtu.be/IvZvgDD7JxM
Wow. This is going to be epic. TDE.
cant wait!! buying this out the store fuck itunes
@Rozay lol not at all as the scene took place on the stoop outside…..wit 2 dudes lol
This already has the makings of a classic. And the cover only makes it feel more like it.
Dope.
@Dashing
Yeah i agree. this is dope cover. this is going to go down in history as classic hip-hop covers right along with illmatic, ready to die and reasonable doubt!!!
Whats in the baby bottle kendrick?

am i the only one that notices the title “A SHORT FILM” the fuck does that mean?
fuckin’ comments on album covers are pointless. y’all are so hypocritical.
I see the dude holdin k dot holding up the Crip sign
Dope! That’s very Compton, Watts, South Central early to mid 80’s…His popz holding him look like he went to the Skate Depot on Rosecrans, HA!
wow thats fuckin classic right there …mang …no gimmicks mang!
with a cover like this, u already know this shit is gonna b a classic..
^^^so an album automatically is a classic b/c of a cover???
Now THATS a dope cover. Retro.
It gonna be classic if section 80 was jst a taster foreal
meh. i was hoping the cover would be cooler but i guess this will do.
@ Goldenboy…stop fucking hating!!! The cover reflects his fu&^*&^ life!!! Good Kid, Mad City will be on heavy rotation. Goldenboy, if you never been to Compton u would never know what the picture represent. Trust me, if u r a black male and live past 21 years of age in Compton, then u graduated from the streets. I cannot wait for this shit drop.
THE REAL QUESTION IS……….ARE ANY OF THE BROTHERS ON THE COVER STILL ALIVE?
WE ARE TALKING ABOUT COMPTONS IN THE 1980s- 1990s. HUB CITY.
Man please no lady gaga. I fuck with Kendrick remind me of myself
Ab-Soul better have a verse on this album somewhere.
i don’t like this cover but the music will be dope thats for sure…
Looks weird but should be dope… now look at this video i edited for my homies.
this was pretty coooool what the fuck yall want for cover, just basic old school photo that even will make the album more classic, and look at the dude holdin KENDRICK throwin up the CRIP sign damn shits was real, kendrick could even be a c member today and not make it to where he is
SOUTH CENTRAL COMPTON 80-90’S > CHICAGO VIOLENCE NOW
DOPE cover. Kendrick keeps it MAD real!
Man This Cover Is Dope, Probly The Best Cover I Seen In Years, DJ Khaled Kiss The Ring Is Like a Bag A Shit Compared To This
I Bet You Mufuckas Gonna Bite This Cover Like Crazy, Just Watch Bitin Is At An All Time High Now lol
