Who else want Kendrick to drop new music?
Me
Pope Francis
Yessir
Shaq when you can check your Instagram dms
Me I’m eagerly waiting
Kendrick doesn’t have to say anything about current events it’s because he said it in 2015 no one just payed attention to it
I always said TPAB came too soon. If that album dropped anytime between 2018 and now it would have took off more than it was especially this year. It’s like this year really opened people eye. This year every state would of burned
“alright” was the anthem to the marches/protests going on in 2015 though. people listened but they just have bad memories
When you're working hard in reality, watching these videos to get to your motivation. But nothing is planned well, stressed, and etc. If you come across my post, i pray you get through your worries, feelings and emotions. 🙇🏾♂️🙏🏾💓
Lorie Whalin he should drop TPAB Deluxe and it would be huge
Maybe cuz he from Compton California... You see police brutality 7 times a week especially when Kendrick was growing up 🤦🏽♀️
This is how many people think Kendrick Lamar is a legend
👇🏾
Only one bruh
Frank George stfu
Kendrick is one of the best right now, he will be up there with em,2pac,dmx,wu tang,nas,jayz,biggie.
Kendrick da GOAT
We don't think he's a legend, we know.🔥
Assasin's lyrics are messed up, I'm Jamaican. He's saying: I said they treat us like a slave 'cause we black, we feel whole heap of (alotta) pain 'cause we black, I man say they put us in chains 'cause we black, and watch now, big ol' chains full of rocks, you don't see the whip left scars on our backs? but now we have a big whip parked on the block, they said we're doomed from the start 'cause we're black, but remember this: every race start from the black, just remember that.
I really don't get why every single lyric video is full of errors, but it happens like consistently for so many songs
Thats hard 🔥🔥
@@weaselsdawg the probably censoring it on purpose
Lmao, my family Caribbean and I grew up bumping Reggae, Calypso, Soca and shit. First time I heard this song with my friends and Assassin came on we all went crazy lmao
@@KiraDaBeastNY lol same, I didn't expect him to be on a song with Kendrick at all
Shaq: "yall see what he doin?!"
us: nigga yes 5 years ago
😂😂
Couldn’t wait to see your reaction to that last line. One of the realest lyrics I’ve ever heard.
For real, king kendrick
You couldnt wait huh. THAT last line is one of the releast to you ? What kind of life have you lived in that community? Or are you a manipulative devil deep down? I could say more but I don't want to assume too much
Freeman it’s real. Been in the projects
@@MRGIVENODAMN wtf
@@MRGIVENODAMN too late for that chief. May as well go ahead an tell everyone how you really feel.
Every time he says “we reacting to more Kendrick” it takes like a month or two for the next to come out💀
lol too true
It makes me so sad
At least you ain't waiting for another Nas reaction.
Aye in spirit of Kendrick that’s why he slacks 😂
@@TheOath888I mean, as fans we are also kinda backwards. We want great music from our favourite artists, but we’re also too impatient to wait on the great music. Takes a lot of time, studying, and hard work to make a body of work like Kendrick does.
Bruh every Kendrick song is amazing literally it’s impossible to find a bad verse lmao
Seriously
c4 and the song michael jordan would like to speak with you
@@drrnvevo bounce bounce B Bounce bounce!!
@@drrnvevo that's not even terrible
@@genesisosuna dont wuwwy
He starts his verse with "im the biggest hypocrite of 2015" because in the song before it said "complexion, it dont mean a thing" and here the whole premise of a song is the complex that is "the blacker the berry the sweeter the juice" we really need a full album reaction coach!!!!!!!
This is in my opinion the best album of the decade
@@eyghen8529 same bro
It’s also because in the song he says that he was crying due to the death of Treyvon Martin while he killed a man blacker than himself, one of the best moments in hip hop history.
Yeah the hypocrite line is a preface and set up to the last line of the song, not the song before it. Especially because complexion is about unity amongst each other and being proud of what you look like.

There’s no need for Kendrick to talk about BLM and George Floyd because he been talking about that

@PrEcIs3 Gaming no u
The best and most beautiful thing of kendricks art/albums is they will age like fine wine and his words can mean so much or not even be that deep but he lets us be the ones to figure it out and that is the quality he gives us which is why he takes his time cause he doenst ride trends and said before he wants to grow and give us art not some "bop" that will get played out after the next one so the wait is always worth it..kendrick is hip hop💪🏾
Kendrick is black pride we proud of that man
How much a dollar cost is one of the most lyrical songs he’s ever done, that and U

Imo you can’t just pick two ! “What about fuck your ethnicity”? From section 80
The entirety of TPAB had me shook when it first came out. Bars and beats aside, Kamasi Washington's jazz backing on the tracks tell a story of black history and struggle as much as the lyrics.
It wasn't until 2016 when I felt comfortable getting my bop to it without guilt as a white kid a couple years out of college.
Tyhler Novac Memories * * Official Video**th-cam.com/video/0SDuAN76OSk/w-d-xo.html .
Why would you feel guilt listening to it as a white person?
If you feel guilt while listening to rap music as a white person, you’re doing music wrong. You have unnecessary racial profiling and I can tell you are easily manipulated. Also, if your are not the actual Simon Cowell, get off the internet. Thanks in advance
@@AdityaKumar-xu6ug I'm not white but I feellike white guilt is a normal reaction to this album cuz he feels regret for what his people did to Africans
@@AdityaKumar-xu6ug guilt is a natural reaction i’m sure to this, as a black man id feel guilt if a white person talked about how hard their life has been because of black ppl, i think it’s necessary though because understanding is key to reconciliation
When Shaq said "Kendrick" at 12:58 he sounded like Kdot's mom when she was looking for her van on gkmc lol
Kendrick! Bring my car back man
did somebody say dominoes??
Kendrick will force you to think on an analytical level. If you can’t get yourself to that level, K Dot will go right over your heads. Pure damn GENIUS!!!!
To Pimp a Butterfly is better than DAMN. It's a poetic masterpiece
Facts
To Pimp a Butterfly is his best album tbh
who tryin to say otherwise though? everyone knows that lol
Easily one of the best rap albums of all time
Facts... But damn isn’t bad 🤷🏽
Kendricks writing is so much more dense then J Coles. I can understand enjoying Coles music more because it's more accessible but honestly, J Coles writing is no where near the complexity of Kendricks. Hes the better rapper. Whether or not you enjoy J Coles music more, you cant say hes the better RAPPER
Fax
I agree!
Facts bro and I'm more of a Cole fan than a Kendrick fan, both are great though.
@@prestonkelly9156 I was more of a Cole fan when I made myself playlists, buy since I started listening to albums it flipped
100% agree
Here I come back to realize that Drake was just child's play, few people received the tone of voice that K-dot uses in this song, it is the pure interpretation of hate, of Compton's K-dot, the K-dot that he leaves it dormant, because he is not proud of it.
Never leave a panther hungry.
2024 and still catching chills from this song 🥶
I wasn't a Kendrick fan either until a buddy put tpab on the aux on a road trip. That's when I realized he is doing with rap what pink Floyd did with rock. These albums are all one piece of art. Some of the songs bang on their own for sure, but the full impact is only felt listening cover to cover.
Tyhler Novac Memories * * Official Video**th-cam.com/video/0SDuAN76OSk/w-d-xo.html
Exactly mann, im a big pink floyd fan. I used to listen to a lot of prog rock and never been a rap fan until i heard k dot
Absolutely true
I know I’m late but this is the perfect fucking analogy holy shit

“Me and the homies”

One of his best songs
Love it
That last line bro. That is some of the realest shit I’ve ever heard. Idk how anyone can call someone else the goat besides Kendrick👑
This song is a masterpiece. Everyone wants to familiarize themselves and hop on the stereotyping trains without realizing stereotyping is at the root of racism. Whenever you generalize a person no matter the context, that's discrimination. It's nice to see Kendrick speaking these "truths" when every other rapper is just trying to capitalize off it. (Da Baby, for example.)
This is how many people who want Kendrick to drop an album
👇
Next Week!!!!!
Kendrick Is One Of The Greatest To Ever Do It.
Tyhler Novac Memories * * Official Video**th-cam.com/video/0SDuAN76OSk/w-d-xo.html
Disagree. He’s way over hyped.
Stephen Watson how?
LeGoat James HOW? I don’t follow
Stephen Watson in what way is Kendrick overhyped
“Sing About Me” is the next song to react to, Shaq!!
Fr fr
greatest hip hop song of all time
When it fades away whilst saying I’ll never fade away >>>
Yes.
@@ramen4dinner fax
This is the song that really made me a Kendrick fan. Before then, I liked him but wasn’t all hyped like everyone else was. Then I heard this and was like okay I’m on board lol. That whole album is a masterpiece in my opinion.
Exact same with me. I heard he was super lyrical and listened to DNA and HUMBLE and wasnt really impressed. They banged though. And then I listened to The Blacker the Berry not expecting much and holy shit I had to process it
Wesley's theory was enough for me. Fell in love with the album from the start. "Look both ways before you cross my mind" while panning left to right is nothing short of genius
I prophesied on my last song you laughed at me but when shit get bracken don’t you ask for me -Kendrick lamar
And now everyone is asking "where's Kendrick? Why don't he say something"
That's got to be the one of the realist bar because he said what everyone is doing now
"How many gon' tell the truth after me?"
Bruh everyone made jokes and called TPAB trash. Those same people are now looking for Kendrick to talk. Kendrick the fucking goat
@@wholelottateo no one called it trash LMAO....dafaq is you talkin bout ? its an acclaimed classic by fans,critics and the people outside.
@@tejassharma6822 you really gonna sit here and say no one was calling tpab trash? foh
I like how you immediately caught on that Kendrick was calling himself a hypocrite weeping for Trayvon at the end. When he released the song a lot of people at the time thought he was talking about the black community in general.

Who’s here 2024 🔥💪🏾
I was listening to Section 80, this man makes amazing music.
This is what the fans have been waiting for, mf this came out a decade ago 💀💀💀💀
That last line still gives me the chills 5 years latter
One of the all-time great songs. Period.
fact
I’m a 40 year old white woman from Australia. When I first heard this, I had it on repeat through my headphones for 3 hours straight, tears flowing. This is full power.
LOL so this is where it happened Shaq became a Kendrick Lamar fan🥳 what a beautiful day LOL catching up on old reactions I missed. 👌🏽💯🤣😭😎😎😎😭😭
"It's funny how Zulu and Xhosa might go to war / Two tribal armies that wanna build and destroy ..."
I always thought he said two tribal homies that’s wanna build and destroy 🤦🏾🤣🤣🤣🤣
It's your boy, it's your homie, it's the no life gang here patiently waiting for this content
Thanks man I finally got closure...you finished it man. You finished it.
This aged lovely.
12:00 “NO NO NO NOO” I am legend scene 😂
TPAB one of the greatest yet most underrated rap albums of all time.
The funny thing is that it’s still underrated even though it got rap album of the year 2015
It’s regarded as one of the best rap albums to ever grace this earth, it has people who don’t even listen to Kendrick wants to hear what he has to say what’s going on in the country. I’m still pissed that it didn’t win Album of the year in 2016
@@boldbutweird9169 do you not see the comment above you
@@majestyarchives16 I didn’t say rap album of the year, I said *Album of the year* . As in it transcends other genres to be the definitive best album of that year. Which it was
@@boldbutweird9169 you are right
Nobody should be waiting on KDot to say something, he already said it. TDE
Tyhler Novac Memories * * Official Video**th-cam.com/video/0SDuAN76OSk/w-d-xo.html
To Pimp a Butterfly is one of the best albums I’ve ever heard, ever, in any genre. It’s one whole piece. I can’t even listen to the songs out of track order, it’s like listening to a snippet of the whole story.
Kendrick Lamar is a genius Drake has never made anything close to this quality of music. with the bars & an actual meaningful purpose👌🏽💯👏🏽🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Not only is this the best rap song of the decade, this is one of if not the best rap song of all time. Kendrick is one of the greats, you gotta check more of his discog out.
This track is so powerful because Kendrick is being so direct and usually he’s with the poetic abstract side of rap
So it feels like this side of him comes out of nowhere and makes it hit THAT much harder. A great example of saying less to say more.
𝗳𝗮𝗰𝘁𝗼𝘀
This still gives me chills 😭
One of my favorite Kendrick songs
Salute to kdot fans revisiting this
TPAB is the best album of all time, no one can change my mind
no, pink season is best album of all time

I'm not the biggest hip hop fan, but when this dropped in 2015, I listened to it at least five times in a row. That last verse is a show stopper! It made me realize that with his lyricism and his ability to craft songs, everyone else was competing for the second best rapper.
Why are you not the biggest fan? This should’ve made u interested enough to check out every corner of it!!
Kendricks the goat man, it’s insane how young he is still
I'm a huge Kendrick Lamar fan. Wish he could produce more music. Has real authentic emotions that flow through his music that people could desperately use, followed by followers helping others through these hard times. In due time. I have this hunch.
Kendrick literally killed the Grammys in 2016 with his performance no way you haven't heard this before.
Kings dead, it's got lyricism, its got mumble its got it all coach
We need his poetry now more than ever... love this album
At 4:44 when he assesses himself i cannot 😂
I saw Kendrick live at GC Festival in 16. Riri headlined, but Kendrick stole the show, came out to this. Just blew me away and I been a fan since

We don’t mind waiting for Kendrick music because he’s brilliant.❤️💯
Yo Shaq, This is the third time I'm listening to this reaction for three different days. That's how powerful Kendrick's lyrics & your reaction is
This song was dedicated to Drake before Drake was aware of the beef. He not like us. He a FAN he a FAN he a FAN. lol
Honestly this is one of those songs that literally only Kendrick could make. Along with hiiipower, blacker the berry, sing about me, keshas song, art of peer pressure, the hearts part 1-4, control (his verse), Poe man's dreams, ignorance is bliss, U etc. Add that to his unmatched versatility, flow and flawless discography is why I consider Kendrick the goat rapper 🤷🏻♂️
I'm glad you along with more people are seeing just how masterful Kendrick is and that he's been one of the greatest to do it for a decade now. On behalf of everyone watchin your vids i wanna say PLEASE DO MORE KENDRICK REACTIONS. Unlike a lot of other reactions you genuinely pick up on most of the lyrics and i end up learning more about the song too
11:32 zulu and xiosa are to rival african tribes in the i want to say 16th centuries
The blacker the Berry the sweater the juice lyric reminds me the same lyric Dave used what an iconic lyric man💪🔥🔥
Shaq you must react to "Sing about me" now
Like if you agree
👇🏾
No cap he stepped on alot of toes,even got him the pulitzer prize
*To Pimp a Butterfly was his best and most slept on album* 💯
Best? Absolutely. Most slept on? Not at fucking all.
The question remains : *WHERE TF IS KENDRICK?*
Hopefully working on another classic. But he just did have a baby girl last year I believe so his focus is probably all hers for now.
True and he was seen making a music video too so hopefully it’s soon🙏🏾

You are exactly right about everything being connected! You really have to listen to complexion before this. The line “I’m the biggest hypocrite of 2015” is a complete polar opposite of Complexion’s “complexion don’t mean a thing”. In complexion he states it doesn’t matter what color you are, but in The Blacker the Berry, he says that “the blacker the berry the sweeter the juice” or, the blacker the better, which is why he states that he’s a hypocrite. Of course, it explains that in TBTB but listening to Complexion first helps illustrate that.
Absolute goosebumps from that last line it hit different and the calming ending too bring it all together amazing!!!
4:43 bro shaq has me DEEEEEAD
Who else wants Kendrick to drop new music 🤩🤯
Yo you finally did it
Before i finish watching this imma say: react to his whole discography, it'll be equally good if not better
3:58 facts
Tyhler Novac Memories * * Official Video**th-cam.com/video/0SDuAN76OSk/w-d-xo.html
He plays on the world "Hypocrite". In the album’s previous track, Complexion, Kendrick’s main point is that “Complexion don’t mean a thing”, implying that he doesn’t care about the way someone looks. In The Blacker the Berry, he says “The blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice”, which essentially means the blacker the better. These two lyrics contradict each other, thus making him the biggest hypocrite of 2015.
I swear Tupac’s powerful words and ideas transferred to Kendrick after he was shot, RIP Goat
How Much a Dollar Cost reaction would be your best Kendrick reaction
"Finish that man, finish that man, ayyy"
Gets me every time 😂😂😂
I can’t believe drake heard this song and thought it was a good idea to respond 😂
The art of peer pressure
WE WANT A REACTION TO THE WHOLE ALBUM!!!
Remebre when shaq told us that " how much a dollar cost" is the one that make him a fan
Kendrick is an absolute genius!
the blacker the berry is possibly the greatest rap song of all time.
Talking to Drake .. once u realize it
Want to see Lupe fiasco- Mural reaction..let's see how much you breakdown! Take it as challenge man.😅
5:02 I feel you 🤣🤣🙌🏿
This was so awesome to see you kind of discover Kendrick's genius. This is a top 3 song of his, for me. I tear up every time I hear that last line.
so we’re gonna wait another 15 years for kendricks new music 😂😂💀
