I always said TPAB came too soon. If that album dropped anytime between 2018 and now it would have took off more than it was especially this year. It’s like this year really opened people eye. This year every state would of burned
You couldnt wait huh. THAT last line is one of the releast to you ? What kind of life have you lived in that community? Or are you a manipulative devil deep down? I could say more but I don't want to assume too much
Assasin's lyrics are messed up, I'm Jamaican. He's saying: I said they treat us like a slave 'cause we black, we feel whole heap of (alotta) pain 'cause we black, I man say they put us in chains 'cause we black, and watch now, big ol' chains full of rocks, you don't see the whip left scars on our backs? but now we have a big whip parked on the block, they said we're doomed from the start 'cause we're black, but remember this: every race start from the black, just remember that.
Lmao, my family Caribbean and I grew up bumping Reggae, Calypso, Soca and shit. First time I heard this song with my friends and Assassin came on we all went crazy lmao
I’m a 40 year old white woman from Australia. When I first heard this, I had it on repeat through my headphones for 3 hours straight, tears flowing. This is full power.
He starts his verse with "im the biggest hypocrite of 2015" because in the song before it said "complexion, it dont mean a thing" and here the whole premise of a song is the complex that is "the blacker the berry the sweeter the juice" we really need a full album reaction coach!!!!!!!
It’s also because in the song he says that he was crying due to the death of Treyvon Martin while he killed a man blacker than himself, one of the best moments in hip hop history.
Yeah the hypocrite line is a preface and set up to the last line of the song, not the song before it. Especially because complexion is about unity amongst each other and being proud of what you look like.
@@TheOath888I mean, as fans we are also kinda backwards. We want great music from our favourite artists, but we’re also too impatient to wait on the great music. Takes a lot of time, studying, and hard work to make a body of work like Kendrick does.
Kendrick will force you to think on an analytical level. If you can’t get yourself to that level, K Dot will go right over your heads. Pure damn GENIUS!!!!
The entirety of TPAB had me shook when it first came out. Bars and beats aside, Kamasi Washington's jazz backing on the tracks tell a story of black history and struggle as much as the lyrics. It wasn't until 2016 when I felt comfortable getting my bop to it without guilt as a white kid a couple years out of college.
If you feel guilt while listening to rap music as a white person, you’re doing music wrong. You have unnecessary racial profiling and I can tell you are easily manipulated. Also, if your are not the actual Simon Cowell, get off the internet. Thanks in advance
@@AdityaKumar-xu6ug I'm not white but I feellike white guilt is a normal reaction to this album cuz he feels regret for what his people did to Africans
@@AdityaKumar-xu6ug guilt is a natural reaction i’m sure to this, as a black man id feel guilt if a white person talked about how hard their life has been because of black ppl, i think it’s necessary though because understanding is key to reconciliation
The best and most beautiful thing of kendricks art/albums is they will age like fine wine and his words can mean so much or not even be that deep but he lets us be the ones to figure it out and that is the quality he gives us which is why he takes his time cause he doenst ride trends and said before he wants to grow and give us art not some "bop" that will get played out after the next one so the wait is always worth it..kendrick is hip hop💪🏾
I wasn't a Kendrick fan either until a buddy put tpab on the aux on a road trip. That's when I realized he is doing with rap what pink Floyd did with rock. These albums are all one piece of art. Some of the songs bang on their own for sure, but the full impact is only felt listening cover to cover.
And now everyone is asking "where's Kendrick? Why don't he say something" That's got to be the one of the realist bar because he said what everyone is doing now
Kendricks writing is so much more dense then J Coles. I can understand enjoying Coles music more because it's more accessible but honestly, J Coles writing is no where near the complexity of Kendricks. Hes the better rapper. Whether or not you enjoy J Coles music more, you cant say hes the better RAPPER
This song is a masterpiece. Everyone wants to familiarize themselves and hop on the stereotyping trains without realizing stereotyping is at the root of racism. Whenever you generalize a person no matter the context, that's discrimination. It's nice to see Kendrick speaking these "truths" when every other rapper is just trying to capitalize off it. (Da Baby, for example.)
Here I come back to realize that Drake was just child's play, few people received the tone of voice that K-dot uses in this song, it is the pure interpretation of hate, of Compton's K-dot, the K-dot that he leaves it dormant, because he is not proud of it. Never leave a panther hungry.
This is the song that really made me a Kendrick fan. Before then, I liked him but wasn’t all hyped like everyone else was. Then I heard this and was like okay I’m on board lol. That whole album is a masterpiece in my opinion.
Exact same with me. I heard he was super lyrical and listened to DNA and HUMBLE and wasnt really impressed. They banged though. And then I listened to The Blacker the Berry not expecting much and holy shit I had to process it
Wesley's theory was enough for me. Fell in love with the album from the start. "Look both ways before you cross my mind" while panning left to right is nothing short of genius
To Pimp a Butterfly is one of the best albums I’ve ever heard, ever, in any genre. It’s one whole piece. I can’t even listen to the songs out of track order, it’s like listening to a snippet of the whole story.
Not only is this the best rap song of the decade, this is one of if not the best rap song of all time. Kendrick is one of the greats, you gotta check more of his discog out.
I like how you immediately caught on that Kendrick was calling himself a hypocrite weeping for Trayvon at the end. When he released the song a lot of people at the time thought he was talking about the black community in general.
This track is so powerful because Kendrick is being so direct and usually he’s with the poetic abstract side of rap So it feels like this side of him comes out of nowhere and makes it hit THAT much harder. A great example of saying less to say more.
I'm a huge Kendrick Lamar fan. Wish he could produce more music. Has real authentic emotions that flow through his music that people could desperately use, followed by followers helping others through these hard times. In due time. I have this hunch.
It’s regarded as one of the best rap albums to ever grace this earth, it has people who don’t even listen to Kendrick wants to hear what he has to say what’s going on in the country. I’m still pissed that it didn’t win Album of the year in 2016
@@majestyarchives16 I didn’t say rap album of the year, I said *Album of the year* . As in it transcends other genres to be the definitive best album of that year. Which it was
I'm glad you along with more people are seeing just how masterful Kendrick is and that he's been one of the greatest to do it for a decade now. On behalf of everyone watchin your vids i wanna say PLEASE DO MORE KENDRICK REACTIONS. Unlike a lot of other reactions you genuinely pick up on most of the lyrics and i end up learning more about the song too
I'm not the biggest hip hop fan, but when this dropped in 2015, I listened to it at least five times in a row. That last verse is a show stopper! It made me realize that with his lyricism and his ability to craft songs, everyone else was competing for the second best rapper.
Yo on god!!! I’m so happy to read through these comments and see how much every appreciates Kendrick and understand how dynamic of an artist he is! Much love to all you ❤️ only a hand full of people can see the picture and story Kendrick gave us. Almost like Kendrick give us purpose to get back up and correct all our fails and mistakes! Remember, your imperfection is a blessing.
You are exactly right about everything being connected! You really have to listen to complexion before this. The line “I’m the biggest hypocrite of 2015” is a complete polar opposite of Complexion’s “complexion don’t mean a thing”. In complexion he states it doesn’t matter what color you are, but in The Blacker the Berry, he says that “the blacker the berry the sweeter the juice” or, the blacker the better, which is why he states that he’s a hypocrite. Of course, it explains that in TBTB but listening to Complexion first helps illustrate that.
Honestly this is one of those songs that literally only Kendrick could make. Along with hiiipower, blacker the berry, sing about me, keshas song, art of peer pressure, the hearts part 1-4, control (his verse), Poe man's dreams, ignorance is bliss, U etc. Add that to his unmatched versatility, flow and flawless discography is why I consider Kendrick the goat rapper 🤷🏻♂️
Found your channel after ‘Like That’ dropped. I remember listening to this song and all the other classics Kendrick dropped. I knew there was no way Drake was f**king with Kenny
You were one of the first music reactors i started listening to, and i stopped for a little while but it brings me joy to say every time i come back to watching your videos, you bring the same energy that grabs me and makes me wanna watch more. Keep up the great work Shaq. 💯

Finally someone that GETS it before it was cool to listen to Kendrick
Your reactions brought it even more meaning, only a genius recognizes genius, only the living recognize life... 😠✊🏿☀️🔥!!
5:02 I feel you 🤣🤣🙌🏿
Love shaq
You should react to prayer by him, its a leaked song about the moralities of famous people
This is why Kendrick is the GOAT
I love finding a song or looking up a song I've heard before and see Shaq has a reaction video to it. You have even introduced me to a few songs because I'm subscribed to you. Thanks, man!
