      This!
      I'm a white, 50+ dude in a completely different world. But what I get from Kendrick is processing. He is always processing, assessing his reality.
      I just got home from my therapy session earlier today, and while what I have to process is different, hearing Kendrick process inspires me to look inward in the same way, to assess what my perception is versus how things really are (as a Buddhist friend keeps insisting I do). And because when I view Kendrick as processing, I also avoid dumping my expectations on to him, for what he should be and who and how he should should represent. Instead, I hear his dialogue, his struggle, his confessions, his pride, and his love.
      I tell people sometimes how much Kendrick means to me, but I don't think people understand. At least for me, I started listening to Kendrick BEFORE I recognized my anxiety. His processing is a HUGE part of where I am now. It's a journey, and while we are on completely different paths in completely different worlds, I feel like I am on that journey with him. When the new album dropped, it wasn't that I wanted to hear the next great album. I wanted to check in on Kendrick, see where he is at and compare notes.
      I really appreciated seeing him at peace in Ghana.

    When I started to go back to Ghana again I would speak to the young guys about things they want to do and aspirations and I realise how westernised I’d become. Because all they think about is each other and all we think about is our personal ambitions.
    I originally thought they weren’t motivated until I realised they were just not self obsessed. So I try to not bring anything too westernised and just respect the culture. Ghana is perfect to me. And the people are even better.

    I love it when people go in search of their roots to learn, understand, and find new things rather than just reading about it on social media or listening to common beliefs. Even learning a language can give great insight into where you came from and who you are.
    I have so many American students who wish to learn Norwegian just to connect to the roots they thought were long lost. Some of them even went to Norway and met with their family who had relatives that were part of one of the biggest immigration groups in the early days of the US.

      ​@reed Jack The ones I teach to still practice Norwegian traditions, go to Norwegian universities founded by Norwegians, usually in Iowa or Minnesota and are able to trace back to their families in Norway. That's the reason they wish to learn the language, so they can move there without being disabled by a language barrier. It's just easier to learn it from a native speaker than it is to learn it from someone who learned it at a grown age in the US.
      Despite all that, it's true that many people want to learn more, and often glorify them cause Vikings are universally considered cool despite what they did. I taught an Ecuadorian girl who said she wished the Vikings would colonize them instead of the Spaniards but I don't know about that lol.

      Some of the best cinema to touch the silver screen has come out in the last 10-20 years.
      We live in a goated era. And I don’t even think I’m being bias. I think about J Cole’s line often, “they act like two legends cannot coexist”. We often spend so much time deciding who #1 is we disregard just the absolute competitive talent we experience on a daily basis.

    No way! That board game on that glass is what's played in Colombia too! Parques!
    When I lived in Colombia a year it was a huge culture shock like this. Helped me change my views early on as a kid. Then having the privilege (although we were always poor) to move to France, Spain and now UK on my own, it's all been a blessing. Negatives to it too like anything in life. No roots for examples. But it's why now I can't take any view or opinion as the truth. It's all about perspective in life. People grow up differently everywhere and both sides are usually right about any topic. It's a balance.
    Edit: I commented this before watching past the first few seconds. He said it himself. Life is about perspective. I swear this album has aligned with my moment in life where I'm maturing and these thoughts I've had are solidifying, establishing, creating new habits to embracing these views. Change. Something we humans seem to hate. Creatures of habit. But we have the ability to defy what it set out for us due to our environment and upbringing. We still can change. And I know I slowly am. I have to. Like Kendrick, I gotta change and grow so my kids do too. My mom took the first step. As a woman in Colombia she left her home at 16 to live in the big city and go to school while working. He worked her ass off all for my dad to ruin her life forever. But then I wouldn't exist if it never happened. From negative things comes positives. It's all perspective. She died of cancer last year and during that last month. Every day, every hour, I was next to her..... I really miss her. All I got is my little brother now. It was us 3, always. Now it's down to 2. We gotta stick together because no one else will.

      @@kevinkakkanattu9506 but society is the ones that placed that expectation on them. part of mr morale and the big steppers is reminding the audience these 'celebrities' are not your saviour. talent does not equal morality. just appreciate the art

    Life is about over coming challenges. It builds character. It’s how we relate to each other. His rawness in this album made me relate to him so much more. Long live Kendrick ❤
