So because tomorrow marks the start of the awards season, I'm doing Billboard a day early;
It's no Not Like Us, but it has a nice hook. But that's not much of a surprise considering Lamar's always been good with hooks. Personally, I don't particularly care for this. My mind could possibly change as it did with Not Like Us (I'll explain in my Best Of list next month), but right now the song is just meh. But that doesn't downplay the song in any way, It's just not my favorite.
I guess the song is fine. But here's the thing; I grew up listening to Yolanda Adams and she's done better than this. Even in terms of her vocal performance, she's done better (this woman can SANG her butt off). I'm not saying I expected her to knock it out of the park, it's just that at the same time, this is lackluster in comparison to her older work. If others feel differently, that's fine. But I'm very picky and for me this song just doesn't cut it.
Thanks For Reading.
