GKMC has aged very well
Volksgeist Awesome to see you here! You’re one of my favorite channels of all time!
Could this mean a possible in depth video on GKMC👀
I heard about melon hurling racial abuse at you, are you okay with him now?
Wowhow Bizarre check ur sub feed right now🤗
There are not too many albums that have come out in the last decade that you could say haven't aged well. It's not even been 10 years ffs. You need a lot of time to determine whether an album hasn't aged well, once you determine defining characteristics and sounds of a particular era and/or music movement. The hip hop scene is not really that different from the day it was when GKMC came out. This is as reactionary as the people who said GKMC was a classic the day it came out.
good kid, m.A.A.d city FOREVER SLAPS
Pretty much a hot take just to get on the show. The album is just so cohesive and is an important part of Kendrick's rise to one of hip-hop's biggest stars.
FACTS!
@@PKdororo yea i agree
Yeah how has it not aged like fine wine. That’s a terrible take lmao. Damn hasn’t aged well if anything.
@@jdc37162 yeah, it's ironic cuz DAMN has a mainstream appeal but I agree
Some of these “hot takes” are just garbage.
There’s at least 1 of them on each installment. Lots of people are willing to make up the worst takes just to get featured on here.
bendykirby I’d have to agree.
They are embarrassingly moronic. I feel bad for them. They probably have trouble remembering how to getting dressed on their own.
@@JerkySkink you probably think that TPAB is a 10 when in reality it's a 6/10
That's why they're called hot takes
*someone mentions GKMC*
Music elitists: that’s cool and all but TPAB is better
Just Call Me Brad even tho gkmc is way better
Tpab is........ alright
@@David-wy7cj I've tried listening to TPAB a few times now and did not enjoy it on any listen. I cannot pinpoint why either. It truly is what it is
Sundakh Istan lyrics , the subject matter , concept is more complex then on gkmc , it is much more experimental as compared to gkmc , and those kind of albums have very few admirers,
Sundakh Istan took me a while to get into jus relisten to the songs you enjoyed and eventually you might get into it
>GKMC is aging poorly
Im not surprised someone with the name Bryson would say that
To me good city is right next to twisted fantasy
They're both so perfect to me

GKMC is still one of the best albums I have ever listened to.
TPAB is better, but I listen to and enjoy GKMC much more.
I love both of those albums, but I think tpab is better
@Adam 232 DAMN. is the only Kendrick album I'm even somewhat bored of, and I still bump some songs
me too and im not even too into hip hop
hmm mentioning a kendrick album you like? DO YOU KNOW TPAB EXISTS?
People overuse the "hasn't aged well" argument. It's usually very subjective
isn’t anything somebody says about music subjective?
This comment hasn't aged well.
svennie pennie this reply to OP hasn’t aged well
The "hasn't aged well" argument has always made zero sense to me in music. I can totally understand when people say it about movies but with music there's nothing that can really age badly. If anything it's just your taste changing.

Not only has it aged well, it’s a certified classic. Listening to it is not only more pleasurable today, but immediately puts you back into your life circa 2012. Up there with other great rap albums a la The Chronic, Illmatic, 36 Chambers, to be enjoyed by hip hop fans for all of eternity.

GKMC was always my favorite from Kendrick. I can agree that objectively, TPAB was the better album with it's ideas and it's consistency. But I just love the sound and style of GKMC way more.
Cereal gkmc is such an anthem for the summer
Yeah there’s no objectivity in art. Favorite and best mean the same thing. I will gladly debate this.
I can only listen to TPAB once a year, amazing album, but GKMC definitely has way more replay value
I think you could say either is better
Recently every time I think about TPAB my mind immediately goes to "you think he touched those kids?!" so at least for now it's GKMC for me
good kid not aging well is one of the worst takes I have ever heard
Arty Garfield It’s right up there with “Eminem is the new Vanilla Ice” or “Pink Floyd is overrated”.
@@wolfenman1013 Do people really say that about Em? I get that he's dropped in quality but he is not the new Vanilla Ice 😂
Point being he is not a one-hit wonder. He has multiple great albums and songs to his name.
Blackest Night Batman nah, Pink Floyd is definitely overrated
@@MiguelLopez-fs3ll yeah they only made the greatest album of all time
Seth Wood They DID back in the day, and not sure what you’re going on about one hit wonders for, Vanilla Ice isn’t a one hit wonder either. I’m guessing you were just born in, what, 2000? And that’s why you don’t already know these two things.
Saying GKMC hasn’t aged well is like saying The Chronic is futuristic
I feel like some tracks on GKMC hasn’t aged very well:

GKMC flows like water...each song seamlessly goes to the next. The skits are great. The narrative and themes are great. Imo his best album.

The take about female narratives being “1000% more interesting than anything made by men” is one of the most short sighted takes I’ve ever heard on this video series.
Those kind of takes are the ones made by people with poor self esteem issues-best to be ignored because of their utter ignorance oh and its sexist and what about bands with male and female members-lots of holes to punch that one.
yeah it's actually like 1001% more interesting

Kendrick’s i performance on SNL where he’s lathered in vaseline and wearing all black contacts is the greatest musical guest spot the show’s ever had
when Anthony heard illmatic for the first time he gave it a 6
It has a lot of great songs, but if there Is a few you skip, it cant be an 8 or 9
Same with Biggie's project
@@alangabrielnietosaavedra3639 what the fuck are you skipping
@@carsoneastman5709 while I wouldn't say it's "definitely skippable", One Time 4 Your Mind is noticeably the weakest track on the album; a lot of people also seem to think the same with One Love too, for whatever reason. I honestly believe that not all songs on Illmatic are straight up masterpieces, so I get where this guy is coming from, but a huge part of the album is just wonderful and completely justifies sitting all the way through it
“I have never heard anyone argue such a thing ever in my entire life.”
THATS THE POINT OF THE SHOW MELON
Fantano owned with facts and logic
for a melon you aged well, other melons would have rotted by now
XtraSpicy lmaoooo I cant stand y’all man.

@@changedmynamee lol cant help it cuz TPAB is my first hip-hop album I ever loved.

I think a lot of young ppl buy records bc everything is hella digitized nowadays & we like vintage stuff out of nostalgia. We want the ritual of owning records and playing them bc it feels more special than a spotify playlist. I think it's less abt looking cool & more about reaching for physical objects in an increasingly online existence
(I don't actually own a record player, being a broke college student, but I do want one)

The Live show I ever saw was the band Cursive. Many things contributed to the amazingness of the performance (small venue, freezing rain, they played a full album from start to finish), but the thing that made the largest impact was the fact that they brought in a string quartet to play on stage with them. It’s rare that too many cooks spoil the musical stew.
Let's argue: music genre's don't die. As long as a type of song exists, it can be heard, enjoyed, and influence musicians
that doesn’t mean they dont die. what your describing is saying that they dont cease to exist.
@@diegotaborda2427 at that point it’s just sort of a semantic argument

How is someone going to say something like maad city not aging well without even bothering to justify that opinion?
You just described like 80% of the opinions that come up. There will be people who say things like "Tom McDonald is the most original, influential artist of our time" and all the time I'm like "citation needed please".

He says a lot of dumb shit. He thinks his opinion is 100% fact. When you do that, you start to believe your own bullshit.
@@gulfsound5819 ya but you don't need to agree with everything he says he's more entertainment than information
Gavyn Gayares did u watch the part he’s talking about? At 5:03 he goes out of his way to correct someone and say “the Seinfeld theme song is not even a real bass!” Which as everyone has pointed, is incorrect
I didnt know that!😲 Please enlighten me! What is a base line?!
On that backup singers/musicians point: One of my favorite live performances ever was seeing The World is a Beautiful Place in Connecticut and they had a bunch of extra musicians and local friends take stage with them and jam together. It was like a conglomeration of great friends having fun and playing music. I could hardly see how that'd ruin a performance.
Great vid Anthony
Now will you please apologize to my sister?
Your sister had it coming
He never meant to make your sister cry. He apologized a trillion times
There is no defining hip-hop song of the 90s, the genre had too much diversity, and saying one song is the defining song, only could be valid for the specific style that it would be categorized in. Saying a Dre or Pac song is the best, doesn’t show the boom bap or jazz rap of the East Coast and vice versa.
Tyrone Black Man well said ne9ro
It Was A Good Day is the perfect way to describe the 90s rap scene. You must not know what you are talking about.
gangster's paradise.
Wu Tang's C.R.E.A.M. would be the closest thing to a defining hip hop song of the 90s
You have East Coast, West Coast, New York rap, etc. So i agree, theres so much to listen.
I think we can all agree that Julia Louis-Dreyfus has aged remarkably
Not gonna lie she really did
Her breasts are SPECtacular

10:00 not being misogynistic at all but that's just not true from what I've seen. True there are talented ones like Bjork, Joanna Newsom, Lorde and many others but you can't deny all the great music men jave done on terms of narrative. It's kind of a tie tbh
That's not misogyny. That's the complete opposite. Saying that they're equal, which they ARE, doesn't mean you've done anything wrong

I'd argue that GKMC has aged much better than any of Kendrick's other works. Sing About Me still sounds fresh to me
Idk if it’s aged as well as tpab but it hasn’t aged as terribly as damn
Jake Graham how did damn age terribly?
jacob w bc he has the same opinion as fantano lol
Nah all of Kendrick music aged fine. But To Pimp A Butterfly is going to age the best. Real Hip Hop always ages well.
Bungwads it was a pop album that rode all the stereotypes of 2017 it sounds like album that came out in 2017 it aged badly it’s a good album not great some songs on there are still good but it’s not timeless
Bumping this at work today, still sounds 🔥
GKMC could literally come out today and would sound fresh. Tells something about how timeless it is.

10:17 this is part of why I collect records (at least until I can afford a better setup), but a bigger part of it is to support the artist. I love the aesthetic of my collection, and the feeling of owning "nice things", but I also take pleasure in supporting artists I love by buying their records, even if I already own the album in other formats (eg: CD and digital).

I've met plenty of kids who loved both. It's more like the casual rap fans who never listen to full albums that can't get into Kendrick. I mean I'll admit, even I didn't like the singles off of GKMC back when I first heard them cause they made no sense without context. Nowadays rappers rely on singles way more than full albums, so it's rare to meet kids who can comfortably talk about their fav artists' whole discographies. Then again, it's rare to meet music nerds in general.

"Lil Pump is a rockstar by the way" Anthony Fantano 24th April 2019.
A bassline (also known as a bass line or bass part) is the term used in many styles of music, such as jazz, blues, funk, dub and electronic, traditional music, or classical music for the low-pitched instrumental part or line played (in jazz and some forms of popular music) by a rhythm section instrument such as the electric bass, double bass, cello, tuba or keyboard (piano, Hammond organ, electric organ, or synthesizer). In unaccompanied solo performance, basslines may simply be played in the lower register of any instrument such as guitar or piano while melody and/or further accompaniment is provided in the middle or upper register. In solo music for piano and pipe organ, these instruments have an excellent lower register that can be used to play a deep bassline. On organs, the bass line is typically played using the pedal keyboard and massive 16' and 32' bass pipes.
Good episode Melon. I look forward to your next one.
Tame Impala killed their snl performance last week. Borderline is a testament to the guys vocal skills.
Where is the "u cant sit with us by pivot gang" review melon
I just listened to some St Anger and I loooove that snare
As far as the vinyl thing goes, I get vinyl for the same reason I still get CDs for my car. So I can have a solid copy of the album I love so I don't forget about it. In this age of streaming its easier than ever to just go from one thing to the next, forgetting about an album as soon as its no longer relevant. So buying vinyl combats that, for me. I never got the sound quality thing, but it feels awesome to have a solid item, wrapped in artwork, always there to remind me and bring me back into that album that I deemed good enough to buy.
