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.

So blks don't have issues they need to resolve???

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.

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
i see what u mean, yet Theres no other group of ppl as systematically opressed as blacks.

We dont have the luxury, to be as goofy n self destructive as the other groups.

We all we got. We can't be killing each other, over minscule reasons.

Blk on blk crime, do correlate with police on blk crime, under this instance: the police are our enemies, yet we can't be our own enemies too.

N thats what i assume Kendrick to b pointing out. Hence bringing up the bloods n crips, n africas tribal beefs, in the last verse.

Just like Kendrick you're missing the fucking point.

Black on Black crime is in no way connected to police brutality. KENDRICK AND OTHER IGNORANT ASS WHITES SEEM TO THINK IT IS.

That's the issue here and that's my problem with Kendrick and people like you who take the... "MAYBE IF US NEGROES WEREN'T SUCH HORRIBLE HUMAN BEINGS THE WHITES WOULD GIVE US A BIG HUG AND THEIR COPS WOULD STOP KILLING US\."

Smarten up.

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.

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.

Yeah...seems as such. I remember clearly what Kendrick's ignorant ass said. And i remember the last verse of Blacker the Berry very clearly. He defiantly blamed black people for our own victimization.

But i guess ignorant anti-black comments are OK so long as it's not a white man saying it.

Dumb ass niggas smh

The problem with u , is that u worry to much with what white pple think... i had two posts not one mentioning whites.... They're irrelevant.

Fact of the matter is, we can't afford to be our own worst enemy, with so much forces working against us. That's what Kendrick appears to be saying. And i agree whole heartedly.

 
I hope both the title and album cover are just placeholders until closer to the album release. His music is way too good to be packaged in such a semi-pretentious way.

I believe that's the case. Notice how none of the tracks are titled. I think it's to keep down possible hacking and in turn bootlegging

GKMC blew the internet up, not to mention, Kendrick hasn't even used his "Dr.Dre cheat code" yet & we're not sure if Dre produced any tracks. Kendrick may surprise w/ the features/producers alone & shut the sales talk down. If the album is dope that shit is gonna get others to cop just so they can see for themselves.

Nobody thought Kendrick would even go platinum on his first album. He gave us a classic & did almost double platinum...... Watch yall just watch.........

Yall was here talking about that man like crazy so I decided to go to the album Tracklist and pick something where I knew of the producer or feature. "Maad City" was my choice and I bought off the strength of that track.. I don't think I'll make a decision that quickly when buying music again but I ain't mad
 
I see the line in BTB still going over heads, inducing nonsensical feelings by those that hear the words....but don't actually hear the words.

Why is it so hard to understand?

He pointed out the hypocrisy of niggas that was making all the noise over Trayvon death then the very next day they will go out and dead a nigga over an ounce of that Katy Perry.

This isn't rocket science.

He wasn't speaking to all black people. But there are blacks out there that the shoe fits...he was addressing them niggas.

Some of you niggas should stick to pop music...better suited to yo auras.

700k - 800k first week

Possible he does a mil tho

You sniffed a bit too much of that Canadian cocaine this evening.


I'm going off the strength that he gave a release date & so now his team is just doing the guerilla marketing. This is the album & given the reception of J.Cole's album (which did about 600k factoring in digital) & Drake's mixtape virtually going gold in a week (600k), the reception/success of "I" , "Blacker The Berry", social media trying to decipher "Blacker The Berry" & the anticipation of this, he should be able to do 700-800k. Rumors are already saying his preorder sales currently stand at 600k..... So it's not far fetched.

I'm sticking to my numbers.......
