12842632, Okay, I'm gonna need him to full length that intro joint...

Dope vid, though.

12842639, felt like an "everything remains raw" homage.

12842650, Maaaaan!!! That shit was soooo hoaaard when Busta did it.
Posted by -DJ R-Tistic-, Tue Jun-30-15 04:34 PM
This is surely an homage, he used Busta's flow on it
|
12843559, my EXACT thought. he took it back to Busta with that

12842653, It's almost scary how dope he is becoming as an overall artist
Posted by -DJ R-Tistic-, Tue Jun-30-15 04:37 PM
And not just a dude who can rap or make a few good songs
|
12842659, Yeah he really is stepping it up.
Posted by Boogie Stimuli, Tue Jun-30-15 04:40 PM
Making other rapper's outings look like child's play on every level.

I'm sick of all these rappers making concious albums like TPAB. Shits over played

12842909, It's a Skateboard P beat with Sounwave horns
Posted by 13Rose, Tue Jun-30-15 11:20 PM
That Jazz element is Sounwave all day.

12843295, dopeness.
Posted by Mr. ManC, Wed Jul-01-15 11:22 AM
more satisfied with this treatment than I was with Lupe's "Madonna" video.
|
12843413, Dope visuals for aspirational carefree Blk boys, needs more Blk women/girls.
Posted by no_i_cant_dance, Wed Jul-01-15 12:20 PM
Oh & obvi, I like the song too lol.
|
12843494, yeah that was disappointing @ women/girls representation
Posted by Mr. ManC, Wed Jul-01-15 12:44 PM
|
12843962, blk women aint the endangered species tho.
Posted by infin8, Wed Jul-01-15 03:37 PM
I think that's an underlying theme in all this. By and large they aint the ones getting capped by the cops...at least not in these high-profile cases thrown on the nightly news.
|
12844165, but men can fight two battles at the same time, right?
Posted by obsidianchrysalis, Wed Jul-01-15 06:56 PM
#blacklivesmatter and #blackgirlsrock can live side by side.
|
12844193, in theory, yes.
Posted by infin8, Wed Jul-01-15 07:23 PM
but the practical application of that doesn't seem to be playing out well for the majority of us.
we need anew Nina Simone to make a new, 'Mississippi, Goddamn.'
|
12844351, Jesus fkn christ how did the discussion get here? smh
Posted by Boogie Stimuli, Wed Jul-01-15 11:08 PM
Go watch Erykah Badu's Q.U.E.E.N. or QueenS by TheeSatisfaction
Girls Run The World by Beyonce, that dumb video where she's having the slumber party, etc.
Common's The Light or any of the many videos Black men dedicated to Black women.
Ain't like we got a shortage of videos packed with women.
And do we even know how this came about? Were these people planned or just the
folk who showed up to the shoot?
Anyway, can Black men have a musical video moment? Wow. Mfkas complain that we
don't bond enough with each other but when we come together on some positive shit
it's disappointing now cuz ain't enough women lol.

12843980, yall will complain about everything

12844522, the only guest rapper on TPAB was a woman
Posted by woe.is.me., Thu Jul-02-15 09:08 AM
but i've heard people complain that the album doesn't represent Black Women enough (as if it must).
|
12845253, I'm pretty sure the non-black women in the video represent demons
Posted by Starks dunked on Bulls, Fri Jul-03-15 08:40 AM
>Oh & obvi, I like the song too lol.
This is a silly compliant considering Kendrick always portrays Black Women in a positive light.

12844383, Rap this unapologetically black makes me uncomfortable in 2015
Posted by Amritsar, Thu Jul-02-15 02:09 AM
I like my rap to be "post race."
Too many rappers today are making albums like TPAB.
Foh addressing important community topics of the day.
Not enough strippers and champagne. Damn shame

12845033, Made me feel something
Posted by Nappy Soul, Thu Jul-02-15 04:10 PM
A message song with a message video. Kendrick is regulating things back to their natural order. Between this and Big Sean's last video couple of videos, we're getting back to diversifying the message.It can't just be Booty, drugs and money all the time. Especially in these very interesting times.
