      I agree. Given its similarity to "not like us" it also can serve as a less controversial alternate to switch to (although he'll probably still do some of not like us). Plus, with the "turn the tv off" chant, he can still kinda come off as defiant. And of course, whip up the crowd with mustaaaaard

      YES. He basically saying to the naysayers that they are going to have to turn their TV off cause he is coming through regardless so they should just look away. I think this is cemented in the final line when he says that he is coming to NO with that LA swag yelling Mustard. He coming through as himself. If you don't want to see it, turn that TV off. You have a problem with him doing the superbowl in NO, well turn your TV off.

    one of the things that doesn’t get talked about enough is how kendrick fosters his relationship with the listener. kendrick has spent a decade now ensuring that the listener receives the best version of him and he’s prided himself on that. when u see a kendrick drop, u stop everything you’re doing to listen because he has worked so hard to earn that trust from the listener and i think THAT is what seperates him from everyone else.

    I grew up during the Pac & death row Era. the west vs east battle mixed with bad owners like suge & diddy and the death of pac & biggie broke the world of hip hop hearts apart. I resonate with KDot & tde because it really feels like the Resurrection of pac to me. KDot & TDE is the completion of that Era…. They revived & united the west coast like it was supposed to be in the 90s. This is hella nostalgic to me. It brings this 40 year old back to those days and I’m hella loving it! Thank you Hip Hop!

    I had such high expectations from this album yet it somehow managed to exceed them in an unexpected way. He brought the Cali sound we wanted but made no concessions, it still feels like a Kendrick album despite feeling a little new and dangerous. The sequencing was great, the length was perfect, and every song continues to grow on you the more you listen. He really did something special with this project.

    I never could take Drake's music seriously. I always felt his music was a product of "payola" cause I was always hearing it against my will, multiple radio stations simultaneously. My opinion and gut feeling.
    Meanwhile I'd read Kendricks lyrics while listening, whether it was popular or not. Why? Because it was stimulating, empowering, and felt authentic. The good guy is winning. This is good for Hip-Hop. Let us celebrate.

    I don't give Kendrick success to Drake. I think this was always going to happen. Check everybody in Kendricks' past. They saw it before it happened. I don't think that many were not oblivious to his rising. If everybody was telling Drake way before Not Like Us to leave the man alone. They knew! It's like a teacher motivating you. If I'm destined, all I need to do is stay focused. Just because a deer runs out in the road and I hit it doesn't make me a better hunter. I was a better hunter regardless. I look at it as child play. Any idiot could have done that he stood still in the middle of the road. When you have never flexed those muscles before, why would you battle me? I'm combat ready. I grew up in a war zone. You grew up in Mayberry.

    Kendrick has always been big! This thing about attaching his success to Drake is weird. It’s just that now Kendrick is spoken about more.. and more expectations are on him.. and he’s on top while most rappers aren’t as popping. So, what they should say is Kendrick is more outside more than he’s ever been.. but that man has always been a big deal!
