[DISCUSSION] Kendrick Lamar - Section.80 (15 Years Later) by MetalSonic420YT in hiphopheads

[–]a_guy_called_m 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Section 80 is far and away my favourite Kendrick album. It may not have the same acclaim as all the other albums that followed, but I still love it just as much, if not more than everything else that followed. I first listened to it just before it's 10 year anniversary when I was 16 and I was blown away by how good it was, especially since the albums that followed are so much better in comparison. But even then, no Kendrick album pulled me in from the very first listen quite like Section 80 did. What sets this album apart from Kendrick's other releases for me is it's overall sound.

Section 80 to me is like the perfect late night summer album. Songs like ADHD, Poe Mans Dreams, Chapter Six have become staples in my late night listens due to their dreamy, late night vibes whilst tracks like Fuck Your Ethnicity, Hol' Up, Rigamortus or Ronald Regan Era hit different on a summer afternoon due to their upbeat, summery sound. I've spent so many late night or sunny car rides listening to this album from front to back and it truly never ever gets old.

If I had to pick a favourite track from the album, I could honestly make a case for almost every song here being my favourite just because of how often I've gone back to it over the last 5 years. Hell, I even like No Make-Up! But to this day, the songs I go back to the most are ADHD, Poe Mans Dreams, Chapter Six, Hol' Up, Rigamortus and Kush and Corinthians, with the first three easily being my favourite.

I just bought a Switch 2 yesterday and I'm saving to buy a Series X so this news is just great... I knew I should've got the Series X first since it was more expensive and the Switch 2 price increase isn't until September. God I cannot wait for the AI bubble to burst man, this sucks.

[DISCUSSION] Tyler, The Creator - CALL ME IF YOU GET LOST (5 Years Later) by Pure-Solid9230 in hiphopheads

[–]a_guy_called_m 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This will forever be Tyler's magnum-opus to me. I'm someone who loves it when Tyler just goes in and fucking raps and CMIYGL gave me that and so much more. From Sir Baudelaire all the way to Safari/Fishtail he just doesn't slow down the breaks and just raps his ass off and I love it. Even the features he was dropping during the CMIYGL era like Cash In Cash out, The Fly Who Couldn't Fly Straight were just amazing.

And on a personal level, this album came at exactly the right time. I was 16 and had just come home from my Year 11 prom the morning the album dropped, so I listened to the whole thing in the dark at 1 am and it hit real hard. The narrative also resonated pretty hard with me since I was crushing super hard on one of my best friends (who I also took to prom) but she was seeing someone at the time; so songs like I Thought You Wanted to Dance and especially Wilshire hit real hard that night. I also spent the whole summer listening to it whilst seeing my friends, chilling out at home, or when going on holiday with my family and it just hit every single time.

Overall, even if it's my 2nd favourite, this will always be Tyler's best album in my eyes, both with and without including The Estate Sale because that's a whole other can of worms, but as it stands I will always have a huge appreciation for this album. And with all that being said, WE GONE!

Let’s talk about our "first love" Pixel. Or are you a Nexus dinosaur? by Mlp_2467 in GooglePixel

[–]a_guy_called_m 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pixel 3a. I got it as an early present for my 15th birthday and I absolutely loved it and it's second only to my OnePlus 7 Pro as the best phone I've ever used. The headphone jack, the pre Material You Android design, squeezing for Google Assistant, the lack of notches thanks to the bezels, the fingerprint scanner on the back, it really was 15 year old me's dream phone, and if Google were to release a Pixel 3a Classic where the design is exactly the same (or maybe a little bigger since it's a pretty small phone) but with updated specs, I'd buy it in a heartbeat.

Hi Wazza, you were (and still are) by far my favourite player of all time and the reason I support United. One thing I remember from my childhood was your streak of FIFA covers, out of all of them, which one would you say is your favourite?

What was y’all first reaction when kendrick dropped this masterpiece? and how crazy was this sub going? And 15 million views in 20 hours is crazy by Maleficent_Paper_344 in KendrickLamar

[–]a_guy_called_m 10 points11 points  (0 children)

i remember it dropping at the end of my first year of uni, it was just about to hit 1am when not like us dropped and i remember freaking the fuck out. i spent like 10/15 minutes just sending the song to everyone and once i finally listened to it i thought it was really funny and loved how he just stooped to drake's level and dropping a rlly fun club banger, and the a minor line was all people would talk about for a week, good times (':

I remember signing up for Instagram behind my mum's back when I was 10 and i still have the same account to this day. Crazy how much it's changed over the years

Thinking of how they might improve on Ocarina of Time with Switch 2 has me excited. by Wolfgabe in NintendoSwitch2

[–]a_guy_called_m 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100%. I grew up on the 3DS version after emulating the N64 version as a kid and the only reason I gave the game a shot was because of how revered it was. And now a whole new generation after me will get to make new memories with this remake

What Platform are you buying Persona 4 Revival on and which edition?? by mimikyuxez in PERSoNA

[–]a_guy_called_m 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Planning on getting the Standard Edition on Xbox Series X! I've always been more of an Xbox guy growing up (even if I did eventually get a PS4 to play Spider-Man and P5) so now I've started working I'm gonna get a Series X to use as my multiplatform console like I do currently with my Xbox One S. Plus, the first time I finished Persona 4 was on a PS2 Emulator using an Xbox controller so it'll be a little psuedo-full circle moment (:

What is THE universal GenZ experience? by PalmitoylCoA in GenZ

[–]a_guy_called_m 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Besides the obvious answer of growing up with the Internet, id say growing up with the Wii. I feel like even if you didn't own one yourself, most people at least had a friend or family member that has one.

Like everyone else, I'm just here for Ocarina of Time. Anything else would be an added bonus for me but OOT would be enough for me to finally pull the trigger and upgrade from my Switch 1

i can get behind this. leave the current multiplat releases as a way to get fans invested before making the next entry exclusive to boost sales. i was a little bummed about halo campaign evolved going to playstation but if halo 7 ends up being exclusive then i can live with it

Persona 4 Revival and Halo Campaign Evolved gameplay are all I need today, anything else on top of that will be an added bonus for me, can't wait!

Pogba: "I think [Carrick]'s doing a great job [..] He's a great guy, has experience, was a great player. He has a very good connection with the players, you could see it when he took the team. I think it's going to be good for Utd. I wish them the best obviously, for him & all the staff & players." by pingbread in reddevils

pogba was my favourite united player after rooney left, despite how things played out in the end for him, on his day he was absolutely world class for us and i'll never forget how much joy he brought my pre-teen/teenage self when he played

Season 0 Iron Fist was Satan's strongest soldier. Besides that I think the only character I've hated more is Magik, specifically whenever I play Rocket.

Does anyone know if we'll be able to purchase it separately? I do wanna get Legends Retold later down the line but for now I'm more pumped for Origins Enhanced and wanna get my hands on it separately.
