    Kendrick seems like such a great person. Total role model. Like when they make a dig on someone, even jokingly, he doesn't judge them, like he'll laugh a little bit so they aren't feeling weird, and then follows it up with a compliment about that person. Even when he's talking about Ferguson and people's reaction, he doesn't seem angry, he just seems sad. That's a level of emotional intelligence that most people just don't reach.

      It's his connection with God. With all due respect to Kendrick because he's a wise man, but all his wisdom and self restraint comes from God thats why he talks about him so much in his music.

    Ken Lamar is still the best of the current generation. He is a true artist not a reality star. He seems like he's always in the creative process and that's probably why he's not doing tons of interviews. He is a man who spends a lot of time thinking and chooses his words carefully when he speaks. Mad love and respect.

    It’s funny how he said his favorite songs were Momma and These Walls because those are mine!!! They are a vibe!!! And make me feel something. Reading the lyrics years later just makes this album so much deeper and revealing. KDOT is a true poet and visionary

      @@ccoww yeah TPAB is sort of an acquired taste. It’s a more dense album with so many underlying meanings. I had the same problem with TPAB, but I just listened to all of those songs independently, and the more you do so, the more it makes sense. I started with Alright, and then i, u, Institutionalized, and so on and so on. It works with a lot of very dense albums. The average person can’t pick up even 30% of albums like that on the first listen.

That's what makes him so fascinating to listen to. We all wanna hear what he has to say. Every single album of his is great imo. Can't wait for the next album. Whenever that is because I'll wait forever if I have to 🤷🏾‍♀️

    of course he suffered from depression. when someone so smart tries to help people in ways that are better for them than what they themselves would have done and then gets negative traction from them because they can't cope with how the real world works, it is bound to cause damage.

      It's frustrating when the people you're helping can't see how you're helping, and why they should help themselves. It's hard to change people living in survival mode, esp. if you care about them very much.
