  • Kendrick Lamar just dropped a collector's edition of his most viral album yet: DAMN.
    There's been a lot of rumors surrounding DAMN. since its release, the biggest of which is that the album is meant to be played in reverse. Kendrick confirmed as much in an interview this year, but I'm still skeptical--especially since this re-release looks like an attempt at easy money.
    These thoughts and more in this video.
    DAMN. REVIEW: • Kendrick Lamar - DAMN....

      DAMN. = 4 letters
      +
      LAMAR = 5 letters
      =
      9
      Kendrick= 8 letters
      +
      TND= 3 letters
      = 11
      9/11
      Subtract both of those numbers by one?
      8/10
      Now what’s that?
      The score he gave to Section 80.
      What’s Section 80.? Let’s take a closer look here.
      What’s the square root of 80? 8.94427191
      Round that up? 9.
      How many characters (including the space) are in the phrase “Section 80”? 10.
      9/10. Or, more commonly referred to as, the score for Good Kid MAAD City.
      So now we have an 8/10 and a 9/10. You can start to notice a pattern. The pattern is shown here as follows:
      {7/10} ; 8/10 ; 9/10 ; x
      What is “x” equate to when we view this pattern?
      10/10.
      What’s a 10/10? To Pimp A Butterfly.
      The album following TPAB, is DAMN.
      Now using what we’ve learned so far, what should the score to DAMN. be?
      11/10
      Yet, Anthony has pulled the wool over our eyes and reverted BACK to the 7/10? So what does this mean for our pattern?
      8/10 ; 9/10; 7/10 [?] ; x
      So what will x be in this equation? I think the answer is quite simple.
      3/11.
      How did I come to that conclusion?
      What is 10 subtracted by 7?
      3.
      Now what happens when you multiply 3 by 2 (accounted for by the two frames in Anthony’s glasses)?
      6.
      How many albums does Kendrick Lamar have?
      5. (At the time time of the next release.)
      6
      +
      5
      =
      11
      3/11 will be reviewing Kendrick’s next album on the needle drop channel.
      Do I need to explain further? Keep asking questions. Stay vigilant.

    "Is it weakness? Is it wickedness? You decide if we live or die."
    You play the regular album, you get the weakness path and Kendrick finds God and is alive during GOD.
    You play collector's edition, you get the wickedness route. Ducky is dead, so Kendrick loses his faith and becomes a gang member, eventually dying in BLOOD.

The album is about a man's death in reverse, so listening to the tracklist backwards, you can get the story of how he died. To me that's the kind of "vibe change" I want if I'm gonna go to the trouble of playing an album backwards. Otherwise, I cannot be fucked to

      @LarryNoir 6 років тому +50

      KING GEEDRA the concept really doesn't change but there are a few little things that make sense in reverse. Like the phone call from his cousin (towards the end of the original album) is referenced in the third song (original order). Played backwards it makes a little more sense. I think he thought some of that stuff through, but to me it seems more like a small Easter egg rather than a focused concept.

    • @josephsmall5525

      LOVE starts out with saying DAMN. LOVE or LUST which makes more sense with it being first. DUCKWORTH says put it in reverse. FEAR has reverse vocals to tell you to put it in reverse. I could care less about buying it again, but when people say kendrick is just going along with fan theories its annoying like he obviously has it like that for a reason, no its not some grand message its mostly a simple one, but he defiantly thought of it before.

    • @blackgrlfly
      @blackgrlfly 6 років тому +15

      i think top dawg told kendrick just to say what he needed to appease the fans because kendrick knows he didnt make this album with the intention of it being played in reverse but at the time he was questioned the album was still heavily in rotation so shooting the theory down would have affected sales and there was so much more intrigue because of this fan theory. his label is trying to make money off of this now and its a damn shame.

    I completely agree, if they were gonna put out a Collector's Edition they really should've fucking edited some of the songs, ESPECIALLY the "now we're gonna throw it in reverse" in Duckworth or the ending of Blood COULD Have literally just ended with the gunshot, deleting the "is it wickedness" and the fox news shit.
    All they had to do was make some edits to make the Collector's Edition sound as if it was MEANT to be played this way. I can see DNA be an ending song, albeit a weaker ending song than Duckworth. But it would work in the context of this being the wrong way and the meaning of death being shitty and anti-climactic, because ironically enough DNA is not a climactic song at all.
    Right now, though, TDE just looks like it made an EA-type money grab.
