Haiku Review: Kendrick Lamar's "good kid m.A.A.d City

Slava P is Rocksteady & Bebop's older cousin.

Sherane aka Master Splinter's Daughter Sonic plot setup, characters established, rap parts also rapped well.

Bitch, Don't Kill My Vibe A subdued slow jam with lyric acrobatics and odd nasal noise

Backseat Freestyle Animalistic verses held together by a brutal chorus

The Art of Peer Pressure Dangers of group-think fueled by teenage bravado and Jeezy CD's

Money Trees feat. Jay Rock A tale of struggle and the grail at the end of the forsaken quest

Poetic Justice feat. Drake A sloppy love song about forgotten conquests and kidney disease

good kid Jazzy horns and drums lay out the tribulations of gang innocence

m.A.A.d city feat. MC Eiht Sonic mosaic of private stories, Cali low-riding slick talk

Swimming Pools Romanticized vice fulfillment and stripped down strings create Drake-lite jam

Sing About Me/I'm Dying One part imagined conversation, the other, a mournful cleansing

Real feat. Anna Wise A two perspective story about pursuing passion in all forms

Compton feat. Dr. Dre Celebratory anthem. You know you've made it when Dre exploits you
