In this video, I go through Kendrick Lamar’s discography breaking down his relationship with ‘the culture’. I chronicle his beginnings reflecting his community (Section.80, Good Kid Maad City), his responsibility in influencing a culture (To Pimp a Butterfly, untitled unmastered), the disillusionment he felt about the impact of his music (DAMN, Black Panther Album), and his cathartic realization about his role as the voice of a generation (Mr. Morale and the Big Steppers).
