Another thing that makes TPAB so special is it's cross generational LA-ness. From Low End Theory to Leimert Parks Jazz History and so much more. It gets deeper when you know exactly how all of these intersect and then eventually come out as TPAB years later.

I’m being told by a single bozo @BigUnk3140 that “it’s shit without the actual artist” which is probably one of the dumbest things anyone has tweeted me this year cuz TPAB woulda been a hell of a Jazz Fuision project even if Kendrick hadn’t uttered a single word on it

Yup. Kamasi, Terrace, Thundercat, Ronald Bruner Jr, FlyLo, Josef Leimberg, Knxwledge, Bilal, Lalah Hathaway, 1500 or Nothin’, Sa-Ra Creative Partners, Digi Phonics, & so many others.

This is so true. Those venues, even some of the smaller ones aren’t as accommodating as they used to be. The days you could just shoot a little 3 song ep through email and get on are less. Sometimes you gotta go 3rd party to get in hole inna walls, especially in urban centers.
It's hard to be Maurice White in 2026 for numerous reasons but if you even had the personnel, just getting in a van and hitting some venues is EXPENSIVE.

Plagiarism on the page is terrible, but we also need to discuss how the internet enables people to plagiarize identities and personalities while being disincarnate crypt keepers in real life, and what that's doing to beauty and truth, the only things that matter besides love.

Flipabeatclub been having producers meeting up creating for the past 5 years . From Sacramento, Oakland,LA , Philly, Chicago, New York , Dallas , austin , DMV , Phx , Detroit and Toronto
People meeting up to make music is lost, it’s all emailed and placed together by the music graphic designer aka producer and this is just what it is. Not mad no shade just saying it’s not like the old times.

People always say we think old music was better because we remember the classics but that makes it sound like Aretha Franklin, Stevie Wonder EWF were underground artists who's work blew up later. We remember them cause they were the superstars of their time based on talent.
Replying to @FosterThePrnxtr
Better according to what standard? Songwriting, musicianship, production, innovation, chart success? There was amazing music then, and there's amazing music now. People usually remember the classics and forget all the forgettable songs that came out alongside them.

The more indie shows you watch or rock yourself. The more you'll see very slim set ups. People don't have the money. Venues are combative. Regional tours can be prohibitively expensive. My homies are in punk bands, some are signed and just play locally due to the expenses.
So many cool artists with motion RIGHT NOW. Are performing with SP-404s and Laptops. Not because they *want to* but often because that's the most economically viable way to tour. They have very, very slim set ups for a reason.

Saying people are "having an identity crisis" because they aren't YOU is peak twitter delusion.
Your regional sound potentially being doomed to being regional doesn't really say anything about anyone's blackness. I mean, you aren't doing trail rides to Detroit Techno or Krump Tracks. What are we really saying???

People who have never set foot in NYC or LA nor are they deep in these areas gotta lot to say about them. Kinda crazy tbh.

Kendrick didn’t reach that alone. He had a murderer’s row of the best modern Black Jazz musicians. Name them. Same way I’d highlight a Tony Williams drum solo or Herbie Hancock piano filigree on a Miles Davis record.
Kendrick reached a combination of writing, instrumentation, and production on TPAB that I don’t think another rapper has ever touched… His catalogue is unbelievable
