TPAB is the better album. It’s artistically perfect and every section is so well crafted and that’s why it’s recognized as one of the greatest albums ever. However people will return to GKMC more often because it’s more nostalgic, caters to more people, and is easier to listen to individually. Like I’m 100% going to listen to Poetic Justice in the car instead of “u”. That doesn’t mean that poetic Justice is better (far from it) but instead just means GKMC has more tracks to return to for enjoyment then TPAB

That’s my take on the debate at least. Imo, TPAB is a far better album but people think that favourite equals best and sometimes that isn’t true. My favourite Kendrick song is Money Trees but I know there are much better songs that he’s released
