      Working from home has its perks - got to have the studio monitors and subwoofer!

        What do the 16 days signify in this case? Is the 6 months because of part 6? After a few listens, I usually get what Kendrick’s texts are about… but not so much with the (meta-)symbolism that adds...

            Ah, thanks, I forgot about that one somehow. Probably doesn’t help that I only really “know” euphoria and Not Like Us.

    Enjoying this album. The front half is very strong but I feel the back half loses some steam after TV Off . My immediate favorites are Wacced out Murals Squabble on Man at the Garden Reincarnated...

    Enjoying this album. The front half is very strong but I feel the back half loses some steam after TV Off . My immediate favorites are

    • Wacced out Murals
    • Squabble on
    • Man at the Garden
    • Reincarnated

    Heart pt 6 is ok. It's got a smooth R&B beat but Ive admittedly struggled with most of the Heart tracks after my first listen. Peekaboo/Dodger Blue are my hot take least favorites. Gloria salvages it nicely
