To Pimp a Butterfly (Kendrick Lamar, 2015)

In some ways incredibly impressive, but as Kendrick moves increasingly toward the Ab-Soul end of the Black Hippy spectrum content wise his messages feel more played out while his techniques feel increasingly fresh.  Of course I admire any project of this ambition, especially since it mostly lives up to it, but it was a major slog for me to get through and other than a few replays of King Kulture I haven't mustered the energy to pop it in for further listens.
