May 14, 2022Ā·2 repliesI just saw someone else have this take, and I completely agree: from a message standpoint, this is Kendrickās least subtle album and it feels like heās beating you over the head with the points heās trying to get across.
I think thatās why thereās a disconnect for me and why Iām not totally in love with the album like some people are.
Also, thatās why Iāve been confused seeing some people say you need repeat listens to understand what heās trying to say on this album because I feel like it was all very on the nose and in your face.

beating you over the head how though? is it a feeling or something that can be pointed to?
May 14, 2022Ā·2 repliesWhat is Kendrick trying to say in the end of Auntie Diaries?
Most of the 'controversial' parts make sense to me. The first two times he says "F* f* f*", he's telling the story of his childhood ignorance and not knowing any better, saying all these things not knowing the hurt he could cause his transgender relatives.
But the third time..when he's equating it to the white girl rapping maad city..what is he getting at?

It just feels like every point heās trying to make heās delivering in a very defensive, angry, and overstated way. There just feels like thereās a lack of subtlety and subtext thatās been present on his previous albums

Heās saying it will be okay to say the f word when itās okay for a white chick to say the N word, aka Never
Thatās what I get from it anyways

He's not saying that; his relative is saying it to him in the story as part of a conversation. Basically, if Kendrick is not OK with allowing a white girl to say the N word, why should someone LGBT be cool with someone using the F slur? It would be hypocritical for Kendrick to expect acceptance in that circumstance and he's acknowledging that.
Plenty people had issue with that parallel but I think it was well intentioned.

LotOfMaliceAs far as Iām concerned this might comfortably end up being his #2 right below TPAB
But then again does ranking even matter when all 4 of his main albums are easily at the very least 8/10

Disagree I donāt think the meaning of this is nearly as obvious as gkmc and TPAB

though it's meant to be therapy
why should therapy be subtle or reminiscent of previous work that had the intrinsic goal of being more palatable with more cultivated presentation
this is seeming like it wants to be raw and angry and conflicted until the end where there's relief
also damn i dont think can be less unsubtle it's very explicit in pretty much each track and far less nuanced than this
