Kendrick Lamar - "To Pimp a Butterfly"

[Built 4 cuban linx]

His voice on "I" is what annoys me

 

[HustleThaDon]

aside from the soft ass intro that somes like a gap commercial "i" is a great record. its sad that black folks rejected it

Unfortunately, it wasn't negative enough for some people.

yall need to stop reaching

there was nothing wrong with the songs message and most people would agree. I just wasn't feeling the execution

This. The songs message is something that should be addressed more often. K dot didn't "stick the landing" as the saying goes.

2015 already better than 2014 in hip hop

 

[clippyclipp n*gga]

safe to say this shit will be better than aubrey shit.

But it was people that was dismissing the song cuz the content

i think he's "too black" now. the suite at Interscope will not push such. he caught them by surprise with the pro black stance.

Nah, he's taking the white friendly, "WHAT ABOUT BLACK ON BLACK CRIME?!" approach though. WHites love when niggas self-blame. His numbers will be fine.

That's not what he was saying

He released a statement saying essentially that. And on Blacker the Berry he said exactly that on his last verse.

He has used the "what about black on black crime?" bullshit TWICE already. Ignore it if you want to. Doesn't mean it didnt happen bruh.

Niggas give Kendrick a pass because he's incredible on the mic. But had Don Lemon or Bill O'Reilly said what he said blacks would be crying foul.

So u satin crucify Kendrick because he chooses to speak on real issues vs other rappers that don't give a fuck or too sscared to speak out? Smh. Mental slavery at its finest i see.

3 Blk women just pummled a friend over a cheese burger...

When he mentioned that blk on blk crime, he was speaking to us, specially to the niggers doing goofy shit on the streets.

Bro you need to take these posts and just bottle them up for a few weeks. The IC tide has turned back in Kendrick's favor until he does another interview on Black issues and then niggas will remember what you talking about.

The question what does black on black crime have to do with police killing people without much consequence?

All races do goofy, self destructive shit ... It's human nature

In the blk community a lot of it is rooted in systemic racism, years of oppression

And reality is we don't have the cushion that is white privedge to break our fall

Anyways, we shouldn't be asking for perfection from our people, but demanding equal protections under the law

I'm won't say kendrick is a coon, but he doesn't sound like that smart of a dude half the time ... At least from what I've heard,read come out his mouth

 

[StoneColdMikey]

Blacker the berry really didn't mention police brutality well in the 3rd verse

 

[StoneColdMikey]

Gang violence and police brutality are poisons in the black community and that's what Kendrick was saying in that last verse

700k - 800k first week

Possible he does a mil tho

People really underestimating K.Dot pull and effect on the new and current generation. He really got next and his voice matters the most right now....

 

[MR.CJ]

Classic

 

[BangEm_Bart]

CANT WAIT !!!!

 

[Nah Son]

Damn I just realised its dropping on me and my girls anniversary fuck

I hope shes cool with not seeing me that day

 

[vageneral08]

Glad the song "I" won't be up there

 

[Inglewood_Fatty]

I don't give a fuck about what he has to say in his interviews, I'm paying to hear dope music from these artists. Nothing more nothing less.
