    • @raymond9180
      @raymond9180 4 года назад +15

      zBJoker Sneakers the butterfly part was because of how it has to do with Kendrick evolving from a caterpillar to a butterfly in the last leg of the album or something like that and how a butterfly is pretty and the industry would do anything to pimp it and use it for money.

    • @hhphim97
      @hhphim97 2 года назад

      "To Pimp a Butterfly" is saying when you become the top tier butterfly that you're meant to be, do you fold under the pressures of BEING a butterfly (#1 rapper).
      "Tu Pimp A Caterpillar" stands more on the sense metaphor of Tupac going from Digital Underground (caterpillar) to All Eyez On Me (butterfly). During Tupacs come up in the biz, he was constantly being tried, broken, set up by the media but never folded. That's what pimping the caterpillar means.
      The both make sense but only 1 makes sense without context.
