New Kendrick Track

Wtf son, I just listened to this shit Lol.
OT: Pretty dope, a pretty deep song too. I like how he used a quote from Tupac but put a completely different spin on it. His flow is killer but putting out a song like this during Black History Month was a great way to kick off the year. The last verse is my favorite, it's the side of racism no one talks about. The hypocrisy of persecution when the people who seem to oppose support it themselves. I'm definitely downloading it.

I liked the part where he touched on Black people rioting and being upset over Trayvon Martin, but then going out and killing someone on the block/not caring when black on black crime occurs. I respect your opinion though, as I can see why Morgan Freeman's message might be better Lol.

How is he pretentious?
And what do you mean by un-needed violent nature? Part of the song is to address the violence the black community has been facing, both from inside of itself and out.
As in he tries to divulge a deep meaning in his music but he just doesn't quite get there so it sounds like he's rambling a bit of nothing. Sometimes don't rip me lml.
Eh well the way he displays it kinda makes it seem like blacks are the violent ones instead of letting his tone be vicious he should of focused more on his lyrics deviling the viciousness. As when he goes all "hard" I suppose the lyrics just don't match the tone so it just sounds unnecessary and ugly.
Just my opinion however as i said his flow for the majority is quite good and his lyrics are better then his average despite a few stints

That's kind of how his style of rap works. Kendrick is a metaphorical rapper, if you listened to TDE you'd see they have an abstract style of creating music where they give a backbone to their general meaning, so to speak. It's basically to make the listener think a bit and go ¨Ohhhh¨ once you do catch their meaning. It's a means of getting the listener more engaged. They give you part of the meaning, and you fill in the rest. It's also a way to establish relatability for the listener.
It's not a vicious tone, it's aggressive yes, but aggressive in the sense that his emotions are being projected strongly, not that he's gonna be violent and hurt you.
