I don't know if it's slept on, but it's a great opening track to the album expressing one of the themes of the album. His creativity with his voice and sampling really shines in it.
Saitama Trash yeah but I mean everyone curses now a days even you hear little kids cursing they shouldn't have to censor it tbh even on the radio it kinda ruins the emotions of some songs :/
It's just the way it is, I'm obviously not an expert on this but it's an attempt to improve their ratings and garner a wider audience. Some people may not approve of the language used in Kendrick's songs, but it's mostly to keep it "child friendly" whatever the fuck that is supposed to mean these days. Children are easy to captivate, you can get them to watch anything. Kinda fucked up but it's the truth.

Its a matter of preference, its about what you're into or in the mood for. For instance, sometimes I'm in the mood for Kendrick music and sometimes I'm in the mood for Drake's. Both are tremendous artist.
Kendrick just has another energy when he's performing on stage. Kind of reminds me Jimi Hendrix whenever he was on stage. If you know how Hendrix was on stage then you know what I'm talking about.
Kendrick, Jimi, Prince, Miles Davis, Michael Jackson, James Brown, Marvin Gaye… Yup. I think Kendrick is on those other artists level creatively and talent-wise. We're looking at an actual legend in the making right now.
One of them is Thundercat. A known artist who works with kendrick heavily. He's got a lot of "wah" to his bass so it's needed in certain songs that only Thundercat can really pull off cause he's got his own crazy bass licks
Man i can't get over the actual music… the chord progressions grooves and everything. All the hits, new live written stops and all the gospel chops. These musos are killing it. Soooooo good to hear this LIVE. Hearing electronic shit taken to a live breathing human level is where it should ALYWAS be at.
This era of Kendrick and this band is the shit. To me is so much better then DAMN. These musicians are insane. Thats what hip-hop needs now. And Im a Metal head.
Xavier Jarnaki clearly. Given how tight his braids are while they are clean its is actually painful, when first done/tightened. Hence "his braids make my head hurt." I'm guessing u tried to make a jab with the Drake= butthurt but since you failed to understand why he made his post it falls flat.
This is peak perfection. The band is locked. Everyone onstage is matching his intensity without stepping on toes. Kendrick is a genius and this is proof.
Don't understand how people consider Drake is in the same stratosphere as this guy EDIT: I came back to this video a couple years later and saw this comment blew up Lmao. Thankful you guys see it the way I do
When you get the exposure and the acclaim that he gets you're bound to get called overrated. Name something that is universally loved by the majority of people that hasn't been called overrated.
Lamar's work sounds to me like the beginning of a whole new category of hip-hop that doesn't have a name yet. I wouldn't be surprised to hear him called a "founder" of something 10 years from now. Whether you like him or not, you've got to admit that he's very musically ambitious. He knows his roots, but he's cutting a new path. Respect. His free form timing has deep roots in jazz, and there's a little bit of experimental avant-garde art music spliced in. Those two are part of what's now considered "high culture," whereas rap is thought to be low. He's showing that they can be mixed and come out as art that is both popular and sophisticated. No small feat there. The foundation that Nicki Minaj is tearing down on one side, Kendrick Lamar is building upon on another.
Dope man. As always the most thought out and sophisticated opinion is rarely noticed (your comment ) - but hey kendrick is getting love even if people see the beauty barely past the surface
+Sancho Quixote Great assessment. I've never been a big fan of rap and hip hop, but I am enamored by Kendrick's music and performance style. Perhaps this is the new creative genre that you speak of, which is very attractive to music and performance artists, and fans of all styles & categories of art. Kendrick is a Gemini, like me, & obviously highly creative. A true artist!
Well, as a guy with a Medicare card, I'm not the ideal demographic for this music. That said, I find this video mesmerizing. You can see the passion and intelligence in this artist's eyes. A tremendous talent.

@@addisonshinedown Especially with how many times I’ve listened to this album and I’m still learning things about it I never saw before on earlier listens. It’s just a real experience.
The album is produced in such a way that you can´t really feel the band as a whole so when you watch the live performance is a completely different experience, both awesome but you actually look forward for live performances. If Kendrick keeps this up he will be the greatest rapper of all times.
6 years later..... Today, TPAB has a substantive, fact based argument as one of, if not THE greatest album of all time. It's surpassed my personal favorites in the past year or so. (Blueprint 1 was previously the "newest addition", so it's not an easy top 5 to crack). This album belongs next to those we historically cherish, whether its "Songs in the Key of Life" or Led Zeppelin's debut album. Or Abbey Road. And that's all while still digesting the complexities, and most honest/personal body of work that he's released, in Mr. Morale. I don't think most appreciate how fortunate we are to witness this era. He's on a short list for G.O.A.T. already, and might even have an argument at this point, after the Pulitzer. The jury is probably still out, there. Play TPAB and Mr. Morale back to back. It really feels like a great follow up when put next to one another. But damn this video makes me miss the TPAB era of Kendrick. Especially in his live show.
@@davidgoldman3236 what I mean about that is what @friendly Pup just alluded too, he knows how to construct his argument and knows what his talking about. That's what I mean by solid because even if I think differently from what he thinks about certain topics I can't disregard that he can at least make some sense because of those two pints I mentioned above.
After tpab I've been hearing a lot of artists doing the funk/jazz/soul/hiphop fusion music, I think Kendrick might've unintentionally made a new genre of hiphop
Let's see: Anderson Paak, Childish Gambino's new album, and... what else? David Bowie's Blackstar has a slight TPAB influene tho.. There's nothing else really that sounds like TPAB, but I think that will change in the future let that album live and breathe for a while. Btw, Chance doesn't count for me he's been making this kind of sound (or a similar sound) since Acid Rap which came out 2013
Pete the Pirate definitely not. TPAB is his greatest project to date. But DAMN tells another great story about staying true to yourself throughout all the fam and fortune. This man is on another level of greatness
His live performance are insane. You can tell he lives and breathes every single part of his music. The passion and feel in his music is so well translated by his powerful stage presence.
I swear it is just another level performed by King Kendrick Lamar. I'll say this again and again he is the best rapper of hip-hop history. He is the genius
Whenever I want to reassure myself that modern music is not hopeless, I go back to this video. Kendrick and his team reinvigorated the genre of hip-hop by fusing it with other historically African-American genres of the past century, improvisation and the often omittef integrity of its message. TPAB is amazing on its own but these live renditions are add a whole new layer of awesomeness.
I mean damn what more can I say Just Compton n general is winning they got King Kendrick Lamar on top of the rap game right now Serena Willams is destroying everybody N tennis she's the GOAT,DR Dre is a billionaire lol Straight Outta Compton the is the one movie right now wit over 160 million sales smh The Game bout drop documentary 2 next month..N last but not least Suge Knight is off the streets 🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿 Compton for the win lol
Kendrick's band need a name of their own, the TPAB tour should be presented by "Kendrick Lamar and the..........................butterflies?" (jk, but they really should get a name)
Chaos is a ladder. Oh cool, I found the name of the band as "Wesley theory", the Wesleys is funnier xD...to bad that Anna Wise, Bilal and Thundercat weren't in the tour band (at least for what it looked like)
No matter what you think of K-dot you've gotta appreciate this. He cares so much about what he's doing and doesn't waste any creativity. Just another reason why he's my favourite artist of all time.
These motherfuckers make it so hard to find Kendrick Lamar’s 2016 performances.... at least his SNL one isn’t hard to find but still this shit right here??? Elevated Kendrick Lamar to another stratosphere as an artist. That’s why I appreciate TPAB so much. He took his performances, videos, and artistry to a new level.
Kendrick Lamar, respect for a true artist. He has the intelligence, creativity, open mind, wit, sensitivity, musical genious, and bad ass attitude to make u feel what's real in a way that hits u hard and u don't forget
his live performances went from low key underwhelming to just incredibly amazing and that just shows you that nothing won't stop this man, he just keeps getting better and better;
Wesley's Theory is slept on
Sgt Pepper big facts.
Could be my favorite Kenny song, such a Great structure
200th like
nobody sleep on dat bro
I don't know if it's slept on, but it's a great opening track to the album expressing one of the themes of the album. His creativity with his voice and sampling really shines in it.
He's evolving again.
Once it seems like he hit his ceiling, he goes on another level somehow
...again. Lucky us.
+UberDewber This isn't even his final form.
+Soul-De-La-Tech I swear I was thinking the same thing LOL
+UberDewber Well said
The pauses on Momma are so chilling when it cuts to total silence.. wasn't prepared for that!

it is truly amazing
Every time he paused, I automatically started saying, "Wes wes wes.."
same Lol
what does that mean?

+RaulSouza I personally think flying lotus Is today's jimi Hendrix
feel u man he's out of this world just like jimi Hendrix and so me..🗿
Kendrix
Kendrick Lamar is probably the only artist that can casually use two bassists
Actually fela kuti did im pretty sure. I think it was two basses or two baritone saxophones he had on the same stage.
One of them is Thundercat. A known artist who works with kendrick heavily. He's got a lot of "wah" to his bass so it's needed in certain songs that only Thundercat can really pull off cause he's got his own crazy bass licks
The other guy plays guitar in his band
Kendrick is operating on a different level
I was happy as hell to hear K Dot perform Wesley's Theory, my favorite song off of TPAB easily.
Mine too
+Tris A. Underrated. The bass line is so simple, yet so ass kicking. Loved this version. I lost it at 0:39
+TheMetfan81 Man.. that songs revolves around that bass line. Such a good line. the musicians in this are killing it.
Tris A. For real Wesley theory is my pump up song cause it's so powerful
fucken same. im meeting him in june and rapping the second verse to him because i think its so great.
Man i can't get over the actual music… the chord progressions grooves and everything. All the hits, new live written stops and all the gospel chops. These musos are killing it. Soooooo good to hear this LIVE. Hearing electronic shit taken to a live breathing human level is where it should ALYWAS be at.

No matter what you think of K-dot you've gotta appreciate this. He cares so much about what he's doing and doesn't waste any creativity. Just another reason why he's my favourite artist of all time.
Genius performance
He is IN his music like it’s actually ridiculous
This feeling is unmatched
You're watching a legend in the making.
I actually sent my grandpa to the CD exchange with a note that said
Get me To Pimp a Butterfly lol
He got it!!!!
🤣😂🤣
The GOAT 100%. Shout out to you watching again in 2021
These motherfuckers make it so hard to find Kendrick Lamar’s 2016 performances.... at least his SNL one isn’t hard to find but still this shit right here??? Elevated Kendrick Lamar to another stratosphere as an artist. That’s why I appreciate TPAB so much. He took his performances, videos, and artistry to a new level.
I cant stop watching this it`s too good Kendrick Lamar
1:20 Being Kendrick Lamar's drummer has got to be so fun yet so stressful

2023 and still watching
LMAO the title makes it look like he’s performing with stephen colbert
he’s definitely top 5 greatest rappers of all time
please kendrick's band show more
Is that Anna Wise in the back?
yep! ;)
Yesssir
This video about to blow up.
Kendrick Lamar,
respect for a true artist. He has the intelligence,
creativity, open mind, wit, sensitivity, musical genious, and bad ass attitude to make u feel what's real in a way that hits u hard and u don't forget
This is what I look for in a great artist. He’s one of a kind, the revolutionary of hip hop. Goat for me
Wesley’s theory is such an underated song, one of my favourites 🙌🏼
his live performances went from low key underwhelming to just incredibly amazing and that just shows you that nothing won't stop this man, he just keeps getting better and better;
I just love him so much so crazy you can love a complete stranger
goosebumps!!!
Love that Thundercat is in the band and no one notices it.
