I'm not a fan of Drake or Kendrick, but why did Drake think, "Hey, you know what? I think I can lyrically go bar for bar against the first rapper to ever win a Pulitzer Prize bc of the dynamic written content and unique rhythmic dynasty Kendrick planned and executed on one of his albums?" Drake's delusion is CRAZY.
An extraordinary accomplishment. With this award alone, Kendrick cements his musical legacy. No other hip hop artist in history can make this claim. A Pulitzer. Incredible.
Right. And not just Hip Hop. The Pulitzer has only been awarded to musical artists in CLASSICAL and JAZZ. Those were the ONLY TWO musical genres, and now Hip Hop thanks to Kendrick. 😎
Way more than any musical award tbh, Pulitzers have only ever been handed out to classical musicians… to give it to Kendrick Lamar says wayyyyyyy more about him than people realize
@@yunuserdim8556 that's cuz "To Pimp A Butterfly" is nothing u eva heard before in the history of rap music & you're so used to regular rap that the "Damn." album style appeases to u because it's just normal hip hop like u always heard you're entire life 💯💯💯💯
That’s what I’m saying, it feels more like an accomplishment of his whole career rather than just DAMN, but they had to put the prize on something so they just put it on DAMN.
@@theobuniel9643 no, you misunderstood OP's comment, the description they gave to DAMN. is nowhere near applicable to DAMN. as it is to TPAB. TPAB details that experience a lot more. Meanwhile DAMN. is more focused on philosphical concepts, and religion within Kendrick's mind, it's literally about Kendrick feeling that he doesn't have any answers, just like the rest of us.
DAMN was truly a masterpiece. Every album of his are masterpieces. Despite DAMN's hard ass songs, I think some people overlook the message of DAMN when they say it's not comparable to TPAB on a level of best album, because they are both in their own leagues. Two magnificent pieces can exist at once.

Enslaved Black Americans created jazz and blues, the ONLY purely American form of music, then Chuck Berry morphed that into rock and roll, then DJ Cool Herc morphed that into rap/hip hop. The contributions and influence Black Americans have had on music the world over cannot be overstated. Kendrick is a worthy ambassador of this legacy.
I am very late but Congratulations Kendrick....well deserved !!! First ever rap artist to win the honours....thanks for existing and creating beautiful yet powerful music !!!
I’m a 50 year old white guy from the suburbs who was never much of a hip-hop fan aside from Common and a small handful of others. When Kendrick’s “To Pimp a Butterfly” came into my life, it not only changed how I feel about music, it helped me change how I THINK about art. I’m shocked and grateful that he managed to reach me. Kendrick is much more than a great hip-hop artist. He’s a benchmark from which other “artists” should be judged. Godspeed to him, his family, his colleagues, and his craft.
@@Oscillation78 wow thats very heartfelt. i haven’t listened to Pimp a butterfly album but i’ve always admired his depth in the songs that i have came across. whats ur overall favorite song of his? Since middle school mine has been “No makeup” -that song impacted greatly. In highschool I loved “Sing for me im dying of thirst.” Recently thanks to drakes Ignorant diss “Mother, I sober” is a new favorite of mine. These songs were more about the shared pain u could feel in his words, although i haven’t been a diehard KDOT fan he’s definitely the artist/rap style i prefer.
Lol I didn't even knew Kendrick was awarded a Pulitzer until I heard it on Drake's The heart part 6 😂 and to think he thought saying this would be a diss. He def has some screw loose fr!!
If I ever see Kendrick perform live I will be a puddle of tears. I don’t even know him personally but I am so proud and full of love and gratitude for him as an artist. Like he was only 30 years old and won a Pulitzer Prize-just amazing.

Can’t believe Drake thought calling him a Pulitzer Prize winner was a diss 😭
I also can't believe he thought calling him an activist and someone who is so talented he win tons of Grammys was a diss...
what was he thinking...
“Kendrick just opened his mouth go hand him a Grammy right now” Aubrey is so bitter lol

No rappers but him won the pullitzer
No award is worth anything.

Bro it's clearly his best album i don't feel the ones who prefer tpab instead of damn.

Not even with twenty ghost writers.💯
PULITZER KENNY
Am I the only one that thinks Kendrick should have won a Pulitzer for To Pimp A Butterfly than DAMN?
he should've won that for gkmc
@more soul than a sock with a hole Yh or that
they only started giving awards for music in 2016
@@ayeg4727 What? No! They are giving music awards since many years
Both
This shows progress. People outside the hip-hop circle able to view rap as an art.
I think they thought TPAB was DAMN
Because this prize was meant for the best of 2017. TPAB was far-off the criteria.
@@theobuniel9643 no, you misunderstood OP's comment, the description they gave to DAMN. is nowhere near applicable to DAMN. as it is to TPAB.

Lmao true
yea i see it, it lowkey be more better if he got it for TPAB
guarantee you that they looked at his entire body of work and just had to credit his most recent album
vernacular authenticity.
Not like us - Kendrick Lamar

Congratulations to KDOT . He deserves it. Much better than a Grammy.
quite hilarious how drake opens his last diss track by reminding everyone that his opponent won a pulizter prize.

Money, Power, Respect. The last one’s better. Let’s go, Kendrick. 🔥
Like if you're here after the beef to remind yourself of kendrick's greatness and reminisce
Me 😂😂
Only artist to win it outside of classical or jazz. His writing skills are once in a lifetime and the stories he tells are incredible. Masterpieces
Kendrick is the GOAT
Well deserved. Kendrick is a genuine artist and lyricist. They don’t give a Pulitzer Prize to just any one. Genius!! 🎉❤
This is incredible. Better than any Grammy award.
what a time to be alive
Kendrick is getting very close to securing a spot on the mount rushmore of hip hop
nah the brother is so influential he’s gonna be put on the actual Mount Rushmore 😭
he’s already there
It’s just Big Him
Already there since many years lol
take out the nostalgia factor and he is TOP 3 of all time.
The Heart Part 5 is deep. I'm ready for the album 5/13/22. He's gonna win the Pulitzer prize AGAIN🔥🔥
I don’t care what you say, I don’t care what era you came from, Kendrick is the greatest to ever do it
