In a recent interview with MTV News, Kendrick Lamar revealed that his hit album DAMN. sounds better played backwards. When discussing his latest album, Kenny stated, “I think like a week after the album came out, [fans] realized you can play the album backwards. It plays as a full story and even a better rhythm. It’s one of my favorite rhythms and tempos within the album. It’s something that we definitely premeditate while we’re in the studio.” Although this is the first time Kendrick has officially addressed the alternate listening experience, many fans already figured out the reverse story arc of DAMN. weeks after the initial release back in April. Let us know if you tried the alternative listening experience and if this could be a new album trend.
