    The best beat Kendrick has ever rapped on. Get chills every time.

      not even a top 30 beat he has rapped on, from a pure objective standpoint...and I'm saying this as a professional music producer.
      please make sure you make the difference between taste and quality

      @@JJTooQuickyou gotta understand the timeframe. Like those people who say Rakim is better than Kendrick. In general, Kendrick may have iller rhymes, but Rakim innovated way more than Kendrick and melted brains in a time when rap were mostly mother goose rhymes and from that perspective, he is better than Kendrick.

    Everything black, I don't want black (They want us to bow)
    I want everything black, I ain't need black (Down to our knees)
    Some white, some black, I ain't mean black (And pray to a God)
    I want everything black (That we don't believe)
    Everything black, want all things black
    I don't need black, want everything black
    Don't need black, our eyes ain't black
    I own black, own everything black
    Six in the morn', fire in the street
    Burn, baby, burn, that's all I wanna see
    And sometimes I get off watchin' you die in vain
    It's such a shame they may call me crazy
    They may say I suffer from schizophrenia or somethin'
    But homie, you made me
    Black don't crack, my nigga
    I'm the biggest hypocrite of 2015
    Once I finish this, witnesses will convey just what I mean
    Been feeling this way since I was 16, came to my senses
    You never liked us anyway, fuck your friendship, I meant it
    I'm African-American, I'm African
    I'm black as the moon, heritage of a small village
    Pardon my residence
    Came from the bottom of mankind
    My hair is nappy, my dick is big, my nose is round and wide
    You hate me don't you?
    You hate my people, your plan is to terminate my culture
    You're fuckin' evil I want you to recognize that I'm a proud monkey
    You vandalize my perception but can't take style from me
    And this is more than confession
    I mean I might press the button just so you know my discretion
    I'm guardin' my feelings, I know that you feel it
    You sabotage my community, makin' a killin'
    You made me a killer, emancipation of a real nigga
    The blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice
    The blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice
    The blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice
    The blacker the berry, the bigger I shoot
    I said they treat me like a slave, cah' me black
    Woi, we feel a whole heap of pain, cah' we black
    And man a say they put me inna chains, cah' we black
    Imagine now, big gold chains full of rocks
    How you no see the whip, left scars pon' me back
    But now we have a big whip parked pon' the block
    All them say we doomed from the start, cah' we black
    Remember this, every race start from the block, just remember that
    I'm the biggest hypocrite of 2015
    Once I finish this, witnesses will convey just what I mean
    I mean, it's evident that I'm irrelevant to society
    That's what you're telling me, penitentiary would only hire me
    Curse me till I'm dead
    Church me with your fake prophesizing that I'mma be just another slave in my head
    Institutionalized manipulation and lies
    Reciprocation of freedom only live in your eyes
    You hate me don't you?
    I know you hate me just as much as you hate yourself
    Jealous of my wisdom and cards I dealt
    Watchin' me as I pull up, fill up my tank, then peel out
    Muscle cars like pull ups, show you what these big wheels 'bout, ah
    Black and successful, this black man meant to be special
    CAT scans on my radar, bitch, how can I help you?
    How can I tell you I'm making a killin'?
    You made me a killer, emancipation of a real nigga
    The blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice
    The blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice
    The blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice
    The blacker the berry, the bigger I shoot
    I said they treat me like a slave, cah' me black
    Woi, we feel a whole heap of pain, cah' we black
    And man a say they put me inna chains, cah' we black
    Imagine now, big gold chains full of rocks
    How you no see the whip, left scars pon' me back
    But now we have a big whip parked pon' the block
    All them say we doomed from the start, cah' we black
    Remember this, every race start from the block, just remember that
    I'm the biggest hypocrite of 2015
    When I finish this if you listenin' then sure you will agree
    This plot is bigger than me, it's generational hatred
    It's genocism, it's grimy, little justification
    I'm African-American, I'm African
    I'm black as the heart of a fuckin' Aryan
    I'm black as the name of Tyrone and Darius
    Excuse my French but fuck you - no, fuck y'all
    That's as blunt as it gets, I know you hate me, don't you?
    You hate my people, I can tell cause it's threats when I see you
    I can tell cause your ways deceitful
    Know I can tell because you're in love with that Desert Eagle
    Thinkin' maliciously, he get a chain then you gone bleed him
    It's funny how Zulu and Xhosa might go to war
    Two tribal armies that want to build and destroy
    Remind me of these Compton Crip gangs that live next door
    Beefin' with Pirus, only death settle the score
    So don't matter how much I say I like to preach with the Panthers
    Or tell Georgia State "Marcus Garvey got all the answers"
    Or try to celebrate February like it's my B-Day
    Or eat watermelon, chicken, and Kool-Aid on weekdays
    Or jump high enough to get Michael Jordan endorsements
    Or watch BET cause urban support is important
    So why did I weep when Trayvon Martin was in the street?
    When gang banging make me kill a nigga blacker than me?
    Hypocrite!
