- this was a fun challenge to do for myself... Shoutout to school for being closed this week. I prolly shouldve done this when the 1855 days thing was trending on Tiktok

the reason he spent 5 years not doing music is because when you make art ( timeless art at that ) , you have to experience . you dont want to make the same things twice. he needed a journey and those 5 years was it.
Thats part of it... obvsly I made the video but I don't think there's one reason just a bunch of stuff added together
@@ItsTheJahJah Drake is a clown who raps about meaningless stuff and adds some pathetic beats to it.
@@ItsTheJahJah exactly
@@ItsTheJahJah drakes existence tops Albert Einstein and Susan (ceo of UA-cam) combined
Yeah I totally agree and I’m totally ok with Kendrick putting out an album every 5 years, the anticipation alone is worth because you know it’s going to be fire. I say props to him for not just putting out ish that is subpar just because a record company wants you to or for just monetary gain. I feel like a lot of artists do this and that’s why they fall off just making hella mid music
this album made me realize there is no savior or king of hip-hop. all just people with something interesting to say. that's why music is one of the best ways to invite others into ur perspective on the world
You're not wrong necessarily however I still think that the title of king of hiphop has some merit
@@KingBenny oh yeah there's definitely a discussion for that. i don't mean to completely toss it aside but no matter who it is...the person w/ that title is ultimately on the same level as us. jus like what kendrick is sayin
@@iverson64_ completely toss it
I thought he meant it in a way that their is no one going to save you,and you can't look to artist you listen to to save you or help yu I your situation
W comment fr. I definitely agree with that last sentence.
lets be honest, the reason why a lot of artists take a while to drop is that they need inspo and to live their lives in order to get topics and shit to rap about.
Uhh basically... butni think that goes hand in hand with what I was saying torwards rhe end personally
@@KingBenny true, i guess, i think a lot of the time people are spoiled for choice by artists who constantly release albums and do features every year, that they forget that the complex artistry leads to time away from everything else more quality control with music and less abundance. but i agree with your video LMAO
If you make content on this level of quality consistently you will definitely gain a large following great vid
I appreciate it... one day we will get there
@@KingBenny I feel like your following will grow by a lot because for a small UA-camr you have very good quality videos
@@ym1994 it prolly will eventually if everything lines up well

@@ibrahimkamara8019 thanks
Kendrick Lamar is in a entire different level compared to 99.999% of rappers
Also this video was really well done
Thank you very much
Eminem all though old still drops bangers. kendrick, j cole, joyner lucas have revived actual hip hop and not that terrible mumble rap that was coming out
Man I must have some abandonment issues because I read the title "Why did Kendrick Lamar abandon Me for 5 years?" Funny thing was he went from my favourite to one of the greats since then around 2017-2018.
I mean ngl he basically abandoned all of us
I think a lot of us felt that way. GKMC and Section 80 constantly are playing and his new album was such a good release.
He is not the new Pac of Hip-hop, he's the Kendrick Lamar of Hip-hop.
Kendrick is a much needed freshly crafted pillar in hiphop. He has a mystique that rap fans look to in the way a legend keeps you thinking beyond your scope. There's reasons why he is so respected by his peers and his fans alike. The man is gonna go down in history as one of the greatest rappers of all time, and his sound defines a generation and will inspire many to come.
Definitely love the break down of each album, there’s a lot that I didn’t know when it comes to his story and the amount of pressure that he’s under
thanks, I tried showing the pressure as best I could
Never seen anyone talk about Kendrick this way, most of them just criticized him. Really great job man
I think Kendrick deserves his criticism where its due but for the purposes of this video there's nothing rly to criticize (but then again I'm not the most critical person either)
Rip Dilla. You perfectly incapsulated the personal affliction rappers experience with the game. Kendrick definitely had the biggest dose of that love-hate relationship and it shines through in mr.morale. great video man
Thanks! And yeah rip dilla
I could wait 30y for the next Kendrick project it’s guaranteed to be brilliance
bro this video is incredible, congrats! Love Kendricks music!
Thank you for giving it a chance! I appreciate the nice words
Damn….this make me love and appreciate Kendrick Lamar even more and respect him forever.
he worked on the MM&TBS album for 2 years and had already tried making an album after DAMN years earlier but scrapped it, 5 years is just the time between his official releases.
Yeah I know... the video is more so ab the pressure he had and that type of thing (although idk ab the scrapped album ngl)
Been watching the back catalog. excited to see what happens in the future
I got some ideas and stuff so stay tuned
Aye man keep workin hard. If you keep doing thing at this rate, quality and for yourself not your followers you’re gonna make it big frfr
Yeah... if I did it for followers I would've given up by now ngl.. thanks tho, I do appreciate it
ive seen about 6 of you're videos today due to the algorithm hitting and each one is just as good as the next i'm glad the algorithms blessing you man
I'm glad you've enjoyed and that youtube is hitting the right ppl... hope you stick around for the future
@@KingBenny definitely man I can't get enough of this content
Much love fam
Thank you for your work and your contribution.
Much love for this comment as well. I appreciate it
I got your channel on my recommended man, yt has blessed me with your content. Loved the vid, time to binge.
Aye... that's what's up. Thank you
did not expect you to have less than 10k subscribers, this is on the same production level as SunnyV2 and you def gonna blow up
I think that this video could've been more longer because your take on his pause was complete. Shawn Cee in his 40min review of Mr. Morale explained and he gave his take on this subject in a way that feels complete.
It honestly could've been longer because its not one thing that made him go away but I wanted to focus on that specific aspect... also shoutput Shawn cee fr
I don’t know when you started but bro you got it keep this formula i love these videos
I only started like back in 2020 with the video essay type of thing
@@KingBenny the shit is fire my nigga ima binge all these tbh
@@l43spaz17 thanks man... I appreciate it, there should be enough videos for like a day's worth of binging lol
youve earned yourself a new subscriber, keep pumping out content and ill keep on watching it!
thank you for subbing... just uploaded a video a couple hrs ago if you care for that and planning my next one now
So youtube randomly recommended me a channel with a love for hiphop music, with opinions i actually respect and love for jdilla? Bruh ty for existing, this earned my sub real fucking fast.
Thanks for giving it a chance honestly... UA-cam been on my side recently so I'm happy the right ppl are seeing the videos
He went away for so long because he made ART and making another ART isn't to be rushed
I didn't notice how low your sub count was but this is high quality content keep it up
Thank you man... I was at 2.4k 2 days ago and now I'm at 4k so I'm happy
Great content my dude. Your gonna blow up for sure
thanks man... i appreciate it
Great channel to stumble upon. This is what people miss when they just watch shorts
I don't mind shorts... a lot of ppl blow up that are worth it
halfway through watching i went to go sub and saw u have 9k, i just assumed you had like a mil, your content is so good keep it up
I had 2k literally last week so I'm cool with 9k... hopefully I can get to 10 soon tho
Very amazingly put together
Thanks
bruh in the most genuine way possible, idk how u dont have at least 500k subs
didnt know how to make thumbnails and titles for a long time basically
Thank God he came back to drop peak✝️🙏🏼🙌🇺🇲💽💪🏋♂️👑🤓🏈🏀⚾️
To pimp a mockingbird was a straight up certified hood classic
Mmmm
Bro ur content is lit I can't see over 100K subs in the future
Thanks man I appreciate it
to put things in simpler terms. he been going through something
to me, i feel like its also vital to mention baby keem. mans is shaping up to be his protege. his music is incredible imo, brings so much fun and emotion into his music. his verse on family ties reminds me of kendricks verse on alright. no breathing, no stopping, just spitting facts. kendrick is shaping keem to be the next up
Love keem... I didn't mention him cause I alrdy got 3 videos on the guy but I even have a family ties video somewhere around my channel if you want to see that
@@KingBenny gonna watch that now fr tysm!
Great video, can you let me know the title to the outro track? I've heard it before but I cannot pinpoint it in my mind.
J dilla - Life
A bunch of ppl have covered it and stuff
@@KingBenny That's why I heard it probably. Thank you!
People forget that Kendrick curated the Black Panther album a year after DAMN while on tour at the same time. Pretty incredible.
Slipknot did the same thing while on their first self-titled album. Kendrick is not special & will never acknowledge you.
@@doubledeputyd4242 u doin ok?
@@Stalutes64 Yes.
@@Stalutes64 lmfao
He wasn't just trying to save rap. He was tryna help the whole black community.
not me getting sad seeing the cudi and kanye life of pablo picture lmaoo
good channel keep it up my boy
Beautifully told 😏 this man is literally the reason im in this industry
Kendrick is the mind, Drake is the heart, Cole is the soul !
Drake is the Heart😂😂… Bro i love drake but come on. His toxic asf his last album is litterally called her loss and look at the cover😂
Kendrick is the mind and soul
Drake? You guys forgot pusha T wiped that bug off the window😂
@@eberd.c4644 Probably forgot coz since then Drake only became more successful but it didn't really do the same for Pusha T. People really hate Drake (and sometime J Cole too) and REALLY want him to fail and fall off...said people have BEEEN hold their breath for a long ass time🤣
Kendrick is the mind, the heart, and the soul. Cole is the mind, the heart, and the soul, but all drake does is flex now. Kendrick and Cole are in search of improvement. Drake in search of baby mommas.
Off-Topic: Money Trees is one of my favorite songs that he has made.
hey bro i fw ya content… can i ask sum tho? how do u use music in the videos w/o getting copyrighted?
it took a bunch of trial and error but essentially you can get away with about 5 seconds of audio being played I think 6 at most but it deadass takes time to figure out and sometimes i have to edit several versions of a video
@@KingBenny thank u bro it really helped idk wanna bother u but just 1 more question what did u do first the whole visual edit or u record the audio… how is the process?
@@2mn2nl i record on my phone... its a regular phone not even an iPhone but I use an app called power director to record the audio itself.
As for editing i use premiere pro which is an Adobe product so it is expensive but there's stuff out there thats just as good at less expense
@@KingBenny oooh got yaaaaaa thank uuuu brother
@@2mn2nl no problem:)
Brother your Videos are crazyyyy Good keep it up 😸😸
Thanks brother
awesome video man keep it up
Appreciate it!
He was still making music just not putting anything out.
Yeah I know but I gotta make the title look pleasing
Man you nailed the video
thank you...YOU nailed this comment
Great content man , keep going at it and you’ll kill UA-cam .
THANKS! I'll keep trying
@@KingBenny just keep doing what you doing. Claiming my, “here before you blow up ticket” 😂😂😂
@@vizer4904 a lot of ppl been getting that ticket lately... but yeah when I blow up you'll get bragging rights
do we know if kendrick is gonna continue dropping music soon? or is he just gonna go away for a while again?
Great video brother
Much appreciated
didnt even see the sub count when clicking on the vid you deserve more followers
In terms of subs its actually been pretty cool today... a lot of new ppl coming along that I'm happy to see
great vid, subbed
Raunk you... I really appreciate it
Kendrick Lamar is The Greatest of All Time and my Top two favorite Hip Hop Rap Artist GOATS and that is 2Pac aka MAKAVELI and Kendrick Lamar aka K-Dot
Writers block, nothing moved him.
Asked god to speak through him.
Good video loved it.
I’m new to the channel and this video was well made like some big UA-cam channel 🙂
thanks for giving it a chance ngl
OMGGG, wait what is that ending song? it’s so familiar i haven’t heard it in ages but i love that beat
J Dilla - Life
@@KingBenny THANK YOU! for some reason i was thinking of Nujabes- of course it was Dilla :)
@@nightdruid540 nujabes and dilla are pretty similar in production so I understand lol... shoutout to both of them
J.Cole and Drake are both teaming up together and they're both Subliminal Sneak Dissing Kendrick Lamar
Great video !
Great comment
@@KingBenny Great response
Ty for this video and I enjoyed this I love Kendrick because he is real
Thanks for commenting
Thank God for an artists Like Kendrick Lamar, Dave Chappelle, J Cole. I can’t really speak on Drake and Jigga, that’s yall dude. Game is my guilty pleasure. Thank God for Richard Pryor, Thank God for even the Kevin Hart’s even though there may be problems with his approach.
“diablo” - the album
“tentacle mar” - kendrick lamar
Such underrated content
Thanks
Great video ❤
Thank you!!
Keep it uppp
Boiii
W
400 views?? Damn bro, video was fire
thanks! i appreciate it... but honestly 400 views for me is alot so im not complaining
I must meet and discuss with Kendrick Lamar. Amen.
Kendrick is my Tupac
Whats the last song on the video?
If you're speaking about the outro that's J dilla - Life
5:26 what's the song name
For some reason it didn’t feel like 5 years. From 2017 to 2022 it just felt like you blinked and you’re into the next year.
oh idk... maybe youre a bit older than me but my life changed a lot from 2017 to 2022
@@KingBenny
From 2017 to 2020 my life changed a lot but from 2020 to now it doesn’t feel like it. Which is crazy I’m saying that cause objectively it has with the things that have been going on in my life. But I just don’t feel like it.
here at 5k!
Can u make a video about Drake and your thoughts on her loss
I would but I don't want to force a video ngl
I salute drake for his accomplishments but I don’t think you should hold him on the same level as Kendrick or J cole.
He‘s been going through something
1855 days
Really good video
Thanks!
Make a video about Kendrick Lamar beefs. Please
I'll get to it eventually but rpolly not anytime soon
I ain’t gone lie ion believe in all that he needs time to make great music simply because he’s a “professional” rapper, Kendrick is special and the industry knows it and he was the first to say we are Israelites and I really think they hold him back and by they I mean the industry. His music at a fast pace could really change the mood of the world. I sound crazy but idc.
Kendrick Lamar Forever
Kendrick Lamar 4 Life
I love Kendrick too much lol
Underated ong
Thanks
Ive been wondering why too
9:23 What's this FIRE outro beat bro?
J. Dilla - Life
@@KingBenny Ayoooo good looking out homie 🙏🏼
Just my opinion, Kendrick is the GOAT 🐐 his style and ability to tell a story as well seeing the bigger picture. Very few can do this, Tupac Biggie Jay Nipsey....
The content quality is so high that the chanel look like a UA-cam plant. I don't want to be mean by saying that, it's just your chanel is great man !
I wish I was a youtube plant ngl... too many videos that I put hours into ended up with like 60 views, dont get me wrong i appreciate it but at times I was legit contemplating leaving this youtube shit alone
@@KingBenny I'm glad to hear that you're real xD. I'm happy for you that you blow up, If you consider you have. If not the thing is close when we look at your last video ! Wish you luck and don't forget to take a rest one day, your consistency is incredible!
Great video
Great comment.
do you chew gum when you record your voice?
Nah I just have a phone mic so every little sound you're going to hear
Kendrick if you hear me we tired for bein waiting your music even KSI making music and rap now just wake up
(RL)10 Kendrick Lamar RVA
Real madrid/Ghana
Offense: 86

Control: 99
Speed: 85
5 years may be a long time in pop culture, but I compare it to great authors. some only released a few books in their entire lifetime, but they're still remembered as being classics, and the time between becomes inconsequential. it's better than him putting our some half assed shit just to try to stay relevant. when he drops something, you know it'll be something he's proud of
theres no way your only on 15k subs fam
when I made this video I had 2k subs ngl... 15 feels like a lot to me
Drake deserve credit for what he did back then man
King Kendrick is the God EmC
0:21 why Kendrick in front of the acid rap background?😂
just cause ngl... I like the acid rap background lol
@@KingBenny it is pretty cool ngl Lmao
@@SheLikesLoons thats what im saying... its a cool album cover and background
@@KingBenny I used 2 have it as my background on my computer
@@KingBenny all good lol acid rap is one of my favorite albums and I got hyped when I saw it I just got confused lol
rigamortus is still my favorite kendrick song
rigamortus is cool but I can only listen to it so many times personally
@@KingBenny that's fair.
Fame is the jokest of illusions.
hey ik that outro song :) (its proof - life instrumental)
