I didnt like poetic justice all that much either (still a good song though, just not for me). This whole album is incredible though. Even the bonus tracks are good.



Good kid, sherane, and sing about me are absolutely perfect. Especially good kid.

That final verse on m.A.A.d city is just too fucking good.



"They realizing the option of living a lie, drive they body with toxins

Constantly drinking and drive, hit the powder then watch this flame

That arrive in his eye; this a coward, the concept is aim and

They bang it and slide out that bitch with deposits

And the price on his head, the tots probably go to the projects

I live inside the belly of the rough

Compton, U.S.A. made Me an Angel on Angel Dust"



Its the most technical verse on the album, damnnnn

Can't complain, same old same old. And glad to hear you're well, Matt. Looking forward to your stuff. By painting do you mean, like art or painting a house?

I like black boy fly so much more than poetic justice, but poetic justice fits better with the story of the album. the thematic clip in the end continues on with what happens at the end of Sherane with the two guys in the black hoodies. and the lyrics themselves revolve around sherane and their relationship. and that whole thing basically flows into good kid which is a reflection of his encounter with the gang. so while I do think poetic justice is a better fit for the album, I still agree that black boy fly is a far superior track.
