His momma's tweeting nothing but facts about DAMN.

"it could be because of the bleakness of our present time. Police brutality, an unstable politcal system and global warming are pushing many to seek solace in alternative movements. The Israelites are apolitical and don't believe activism will solve their problems "

Pages 31 and 32 are the best of the thread

I think it could've been kinda cool if Kendrick wanted to use the subject matter of this record as a covid collection of essays. He definitely has that in him

I don't buy that he didn't have this album in him all along in 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021

Who paid OP to write this?

shut up nigga

People overthinking this and his whole aura. This album is his therapy sessions and he is spilling out all of him, flaws, his own misconceptions of the world and himself, among many other things he feels. He understands he is off on many things, which is him going through the process of healing and growing to learn/process.

Yes but at the same time he disavowed his own immense cultural power because the way he liked doing things didn’t cause change

Which in itself is kinda uninformed

You can’t please everybody

Obviously, but he wasn’t really causing anything in the first place

TPAB didn’t cause any real change, let alone the sweeping reassessment of American social structures that he kinda wished for

Boring post like llama music

Guarantee half the people itt had no clue what they were reading in the first place

op needed pics and dr Seuss rhymes

That wasn’t the job of TPAB. 😂. WTH.

He was realizing his fight to make change wasn’t working in Damn.

He understands he did this, and is literally apologizing, humanizing himself, and telling you he f***ed up on multiple songs on Morale.

That said, it isn’t some crazy thing that he did. All the great proclaim to be God MCs, GOAT, and think of themselves in a similar way. HOV, Wayne, Drake, Kendrick all do this.

Either way, he is still a GOAT MC and this whole thread just feels like the most try hard sneak diss tbh

Kendrick definitely thought his work would do material things and he made it evident a few times

It did what it needed to do for his fans and his folks locked down. . He specifically said he makes music for people in prison and those contemplating suicide. He has said that multiple times.

op was like drunk in Europe I think when he talked about making this thread. I doubt he got paid

When you’re an artist you have the right and liberty to explore any concept you can conjure up. People way too a***ytical

I’m just happy Kendrick on his f*** you stage of life. Leave these Niggas up to their own devices and just focus on your tribe.

OVO

Do you really think that’s what Kendrick was going for on this project

People still think DAMN.s narratives makes Kendrick a Hebrew Israelite

Everytime I listen to S80 nowadays I think about this writeup, @op u went crazy

Lmao yeah it's definitely interesting listening to his older works with this album in perspective
