Kendrick Lamar's Compton Reality
A concept album with autobiographical elements from one of the most important artists in contemporary hip-hop.
This is a monumental work of modern hip-hop, a culmination of Kendrick Lamar's sharp social observation and exceptional lyricism. "Good Kid, mAAd City" is structured as the coming-of-age story of a young man growing up in Compton, depicting both the contradictions and hopes of American society. The production by Dr. Dre and Pharrell Williams is also excellent, creating a perfect structure in which each track functions as part of the story.
