Запись и производство [ править ]

Бит для "Humble" был разработан Майком Уиллом с намерением записать его с Gucci Mane , но позже показал его Ламару. После записи изначально было решено, что он будет выпущен на дебютном альбоме Майка Уилла Ransom 2 , но другие убедили Ламара оставить его для своего следующего альбома. [1]

" DNA " была второй песней с альбома, записанной Ламаром и Майком Уиллом, после " Humble ". После того, как первый куплет "DNA" был записан с битом, который Майк Уилл уже подготовил, Ламар начал читать второй куплет а капелла , прося Майка Уилла построить бит вокруг рэпа. Ламар предложил, чтобы это звучало как «хаос», и Майк Уилл собрал вторую половину песни с намерением сделать так, чтобы она «звучала так, как будто он сражается с ритмом». [1]

Ламар сказал в интервью, что возможность проигрывать альбом в обратном порядке треков была «преднамеренно [...] в студии»: «Он играет как полную историю и даже лучший ритм. Это один из моих любимых ритмов и темпов. в альбоме ". [2]

[10] Далее Сепетов говорит, что решение поместить наклейку « Родительский совет» в ее нетрадиционное положение было принято для того, чтобы она могла быть частью дизайна, а не «запоздалой мыслью». [10]

Он заявил, что рабочее название «неправильно прочитано». [11] Ламар продолжил, говоря о его окончательном названии: «Было так много разных способов вставить это мне в голову. Будь я проклят, если я это сделаю, проклят, если я этого не сделаю. Громкость записи. Когда я думаю о «DNA», когда я думаю о «Humble», когда я думаю об этих записях, мне казалось, что это именно так ». [11]

[29] Агрегатор AnyDecentMusic? дали ему 9,1 из 10, основываясь на их оценке критического консенсуса. [28]

Энди Келлман из AllMusic заявил, что «он содержит некоторые из лучших сочинений и исполнений Ламара, раскрывающие его развивающуюся сложность и универсальность как обнажающего душу лирика и динамичного рэпера». [30] Кристофер Р. Вайнгартен, автор журнала Rolling Stone , сказал: «Как и недавний альбом A Tribe Called Quest , Damn. Представляет собой блестящее сочетание вневременного и современного, старой школы и нового уровня. самый одаренный рэпер своего поколения вступает в 90-е и продолжает прокладывать путь вперед ». [38] В своем обзоре Грег Кот из Chicago Tribute утверждает: « Черт.сокращает ритмы до их сути, приправляя случайными камео (особенно Рианна и U2 ). Голос Ламара делает большую часть тяжелой работы, играя несколько ролей и персонажей. Его гибкое пение дополняет множество рэп-тонов и текстур ». [32] Джон Караманика из The New York Times дал положительный отзыв, заявив:« Терпкий и резкий .... Иногда шумный, иногда болотный, редко фантастический альбом - это Mr. Версия Ламара о ползучей паранойе, которая стала обязательной для Дрейка в середине карьеры . И все же это, вероятно, самый ликующий альбом г-на Ламара, тот, в котором его рифмы наименее запутаны ». [40] Эрик Реннер Браун из Entertainment Weeklyсказал: «Вникнув в личную жизнь Good Kid 2012 , MAAD City и расширив тему Butterfly , Ламар нашел золотую середину в Damn. Это дает ему одну из его наиболее эмоционально резонансных музыки». [34]

Алексис Петридис из The Guardian написал: «Если это кажется более простым послушанием, чем« Прокачать бабочку » , есть радостное ощущение, что это не означает уменьшение музыкальных амбиций. тревожные музыкальные качания и резкие скачки между жанрами - но треки на Damn все еще кажутся эпизодическими и экспансивными. Будет ли Damn иметь такое же эпохальное влияние, как To Pimp a Butterfly, еще неизвестно, но в любом случае это звучит как работа в высшей степени уверенного в себе художника на вершине своего мастерства ». [35] Нил Маккормик из Daily Telegraph заявляет, чтоDamn "is the work of a future all-time great in full command of his powers."[33] Leonie Cooper of NME said, "Damn. is by far his shortest release to date – but the ideas, thoughts and feelings it contains are massive, weighty things, from sexual tension to deep, dark depression."[36] In Pitchfork's review of Damn, Matthew Trammell writes Damn "is a widescreen masterpiece of rap, full of expensive beats, furious rhymes, and peerless storytelling about Kendrick's destiny in America."[37] Writing for The A.V. Club, Evan Rytlewski concluded, "Lamar trusts every idea to stand on its own. When you're making art this substantial, vital, and virtuosic, there's no need to wrap a tidy bow around it."[31] In a mixed review, A. Harmony of Exclaim! wrote that Damn "is the first time in Lamar's career that he hasn't broken new ground, explored old themes in new ways or exhibited sonic growth."[41]
