    People be mad that Kendrick talking money and business. The man is building the future for him and his family while working towards being a more knowledgeable person. The other rappers out here get a a tenth of Kendrick's fame and they start buying cars and jewelry; simply financially irresponsible and immature. Not that those things are bad, its all about balance which those guys don't have.
    Besides, he seems grounded enough that he would conduct business in a moral and integral manner. Let him do his thing. After all, its his money not yours.

    I️ think y’all are taking this to serious Kendrick grew up with NO MONEY .. so the fact that he has money and doesn’t wanna go broke you guys should be happy about that .. most rappers don’t even have a clue about getting money and learning how to start a business outside of music but here Kendrick is trying to create a business and a brand ... and he said if he creates a brand he still wants full control which he can still make things and include a story in his life ... and he was also just saying that people were saying “hip hop won’t last more than a year” and artist proved them wrong by creating signature brands and he wants to do the same so I️ think everybody needs to calm down .. somebody was saying he’s all about money and calling him the Antichrist ... CALM TF DOWN ..

      @@charlesscott27 Saying someone is a capitalist solely because they participate in the system of capitalism isn't very good. It's difficult to spread a critique of capitalism without participating in the system of it. On the track "untitled 05" Kendrick quite literally says "Genocism and capitalism just made me hate" showing that he is not a capitalist. What you are saying is like talking to a communist and saying 'Oh but I bet you still use money, checkmate!'

      Ronniedaking ok capitalists ideas are ideas about competition in workplace commonly. And it being a cut throat environment unlike other countries (if you live outside the us) where you have universal health care because in those communities they actually see all one another as being part of a much larger picture when it comes to things like mothers and Fathers having time off after birthing child. But in America good luck if the woman gets time off after giving birth. What i think his comment is implying is to be conscious And a capitalist at once is an oxymoron. A conscious person is most likely to be a socialist because he is aware that ultimately no matter skin color, skill level, or beauty rating, that we all deserve these common facets. There's no need for humanity to have competition against one another it really is only the most unnecessary thing us humans have imagined with fully developed brains
