    Kendrick is the GOAT for many reasons. In a matter of four albums he’s managed to give us:
    A movie (Good Kid Maad city)
    A poem (To Pimp a Butterfly)
    A Pulitzer Prize winning album that serves as a warning and can be played backwards for a different ending (Damn)
    And a stage play (Mr. Morale and the Big Steppers).
    An absolute genius and master of his craft and I can’t recommend diving into all of his albums enough. Each one is truly a masterpiece in its own right.

      Shout out to Flying Lotus on the production for this track! Kendrick apparently sat on many of his beats, but they did release a collab before this album on Lotus’s ‘You’re Dead’. It’s called Never Catch Me, has an amazing video, and is super funky too! (Thundercat and FlyLo have almost always worked closely together throughout both their solo albums), and inspired by Queen though I wouldn’t have guessed!
      It was actually Lotus who finished the production and suggested George, when Kendrick wanted a finishing touch on the song!

    The album just gets better, it really is an experience. Even if you don't do it on camera you should treat yourself to a front to back listen. Going track by track like this is like reading individual chapters of a brilliant novel. It's contiguous. The tracks bleed into each other, contextualize each other, and build into something greater than the sum of the tracks with each other. Take a Saturday. Pull up lyrics. Get out the good headphones. It's worth it.

Whether or not you make a video of it, please listen to the whole album! The way Kendrick slowly reveals threads of the overall themes of discovering himself is mind blowing.

    TPAB was the first album I've ever bought. Got it on CD. Streaming was around but CD's weren't quite an archaic concept yet. When I tell you I played this album front to back 300 times, you better know it's the truth. The poetry teacher at my school even had multiple classes breaking this album down. For me, the production was the main appeal, but this is the first album that made me care about rap lyrics (and I'm a young black guy from the hood).

    I just want to remind everyone that Taylor Swift’s 1989 album won album of the year in that years Grammy over TPAB. At the time it was probably the politically correct album to pick because telling all Americans to listen to TPAB at the time was probably seen as taboo or just too much. America wasn’t ready for this album and neither was the Grammys. Looking back now, 1989 is just another Bed bath and beyond nostalgia album while TPAB is a piece of history, a piece of musicianship that is worth being remembered in museums and taught in contemporary history.

    So so glad you checked this out, even just to get a glimpse of Kendrick Lamar’s genius. If you don’t plan on reviewing any more from this album DEFINITELY give it a full listen when you have time. It masterful piece of conceptual art, super funky, incredibly powerful, with incredible flows and rhyming. Good Kid Mad City is another great rap album by him, even more conceptual, but is more of a commercial rap sound. Glad you checked this out and hope you do more studio recordings!

    @16:17 Yes that's the way it ends and it goes PERFECTLY into the second track, you should really listen to the whole album, it's one of the greatest and so unique at the same time. Great insight really enjoyed the whole video :)

    I love that you said “it’s like I’ve heard it before but not in this way, but it could have only come from one place.” That’s the nature of hip hop baby! You’ve got all these different influences mashing together in harmony to create a certain sound that is distinct and distinguishable. Sounwave alongside George creates this Funky west coast classic sound that is just beautiful.

    When that horn starts to come in right at the end, I was hoping it would run straight into the next track 'For Free' and we'd get a bonus reaction!
    Great video man, love to see people enjoying art with such passion, and explaining some of the musical context behind it.
