To Pimp a Butterfly by Kendrick Lamar, otherwise known as a Hip Hop masterpiece. It's a damn shame that this album is horribly overlooked, some criticizing K. Dot's use of jazz beats.
But what they don't know is that Kendrick knows what Hip Hop should be like. Even in his Overly Dedicated (fourth mixtape) days, he was an amazing rapper.
TPAB is an extraordinary album filled with themes of depression, anger, guilt, and black culture.
I recommend listening to the album as a whole twice. The first time, listen to the album as an album. The second time, listen to the album as a story.
TPAB = To Pimp a Butterfly
TPAC = To Pimp a Caterpillar
2PAC = 2 Pimp a Caterpillar
2Pac, and other critically acclaimed rappers in his time of life, were the caterpillars that were destined for fame.
If you don't have enough time, or you just don't want to listen to the whole album as a whole, I recommend listening to:
- Wesley's Theory, the very first track on the album
- King Kunta, one of the singles from the album
- These Walls, at first glance is usually thought to be the best song on the album
- u, the second part to These Walls
- i, a remastered version of the single i, released in 2014, many were upset that Kendrick didn't include the single version on the album, but this version goes with the album in many ways
Fun Fact: TPAB was rated 96 from Metacritic, the same score that was given to Illmatic by Nas
TPAB is one of the greatest Hip Hop albums of the decade, maybe even of all time.

Obsessive Male Gender Disorder: a disorder that makes one boy crazy. He or she loves thinking about boys, looking at boys, being around boys, going on dates with boys, etc.
This was defined on Season 3 Episode 1 of Zoey 101. Nicole was taken out of PCA for having this disorder by her parents.
However, the real reason Nicole left the show was because she was involved in many off-screen fights with Jamie Lynn Spears, otherwise known as Zoey. This caused her to be fired from the show, and her character to be written out.
Nicole has OMGD. She cannot stop thinking about boys, and she is very promiscuous.

To be in the wrong state of mind; you're emotions are out of control, you don't say the right things, it's hard to concentrate on one simple thing, etc.
John snapped on Ms. Davidson because she told him to stop talking, and he hasn't been doing his work. He must be off edge.
