      people should know that most good rappers don't want to rush their albums, they are forced to produce a certain amount of products for their labels and studios. At the end of the day, music is money, studios can't afford to spend millions of dollar signing an artist that makes 2 songs a year. They have to milk that guy as long as he is still famous, good thing Kendrick's label understand his value.

      @@patrickmcgrade6699 Kendrick doesn’t sound old school at all. He’s a highly intelligent modern artist. He’s just lyrical. I guess that’s what you like. Straight lyricism. To Pimp A Butterfly sounds nothing like old school. Nor DAMN. If you only associate lyricism with old school rap then you’re wrong. Kendrick is by far the most original and most creative hip hop artist of the modern generation. Kanye is close. But he lacks the lyrical skill.

      @MightBeAPizza 3 года назад +1

      I think he partially feels this way, but also since he's a perfectionist he probably also listens to the album thinking how much it's going to emotionally impact us. Just delivering bars is 'easy', but to paraphrase what what he said to make a kid want to not do something like killing someone seems to be more important to him. Either way, we know whatever is coming will be incredible as a final product.

    as a white kid from brazil (absolutely disconnected with everything kendrick has ever talked about) he really opened my eyes with good kid and TPAB, i think if i never heard those two projects i wouldnt be nearly as conscient of the reality of a black kid and the black experience all around the world
    i truly believe every single person in the world should listen to his records, read his lyrics and reflect on the part they play on those stories

    "Kendrick is the best storyteller"... Yup, the baseline for any Real lyricist, not just someone that can't perform complex lyrics, but those that can paint pictures inside the mind of the listener... That's Real lyricism, to me anyway

    I used to be one of those edgy, essentially racist, conservatives. Although I regret being like that, Kendrick's music really changed my view on really everything.
