I was prepared to call it a reach, but makes sense tbh

Damn I hope this album doesn't go overboard with the I Am. All of Us. prophet motifs and all that 🫥

i doubt heart 5 is on it, and dont really think it will be an all perspectives album either. he is very intentional with everything he does, so im expecting the title to hold more meaning than anything. Kung Fu Kenny as an alter ego or alias was repeated throughout DAMN. a lot but didnt really reflect into the music as the way the term is generally used. Kung Fu's meaning actually refers to any study, learning, or practice that requires time to complete, or a master of whichever craft it is you choose. Which would apply to him as a rapper.

With that said, I expect oklama to reflect into the music in the same way. I could see it being used as the art style for promotion, concert, pop up shops or maybe even as the persona and way he dresses for this run, but when it comes to the actual music, i think it will only reflect how he is still just one of us at the end of the day. just another victim of life that succumbs to the everyday struggles we all deal with even through his elevated status as a leader/icon.

But if we are being honest and think about it, Kendrick has always had perspectives in his music and told the story of others and how they intertwine with his own.

sorry for the long reply.
