Oh heyyy STIK!
BTG...love yall. Great work as usual🦾. Only thing u missed is pointing out the fact (imo lol) that this album is basically a parody of the state of the game at the time. Everyone wanted K Dot to stay away from his signature sound. He proved that he could make an album to please the dummies that are hypnotized by sounds and still get his msgs across. Pure genius🦾
@@deezmixednutz6660 yeah it's funny how popular this thing got
@@certainpeople159 what u mean by "this thing?"
Man your dad is smart, it's crazy how quickly he catches things in the lyrics
are you been sarcastic ?
@@GunnerAmhara nah
@@GunnerAmhara for a non rap listener being able to catch these lyrics and even finding some of the nuance is a commendable thing
Life.experiences.wisdom.
cool dad for sure, bless him
I love how your dads been so humble about his opinions on rap, but now that he’s starting to truly understand rap, specifically Kendrick, he seems so confident in understanding the message(which he always understands). You’ve obviously sparked a deep love inside of him through this, thank you for always sharing the experience with us and for introducing him to these masterpieces
See, I think we as a people like watching reaction videos and actually get a feel good vibe from them because we see something that is actually lightning in a bottle during our lifetime, those moments where we discover something we are going to end up loving. Sometimes we see that happening on reaction videos, we see the development on the view, the deep interest. It is truly a beautiful thing.
He's humble? Speaking of Humble did you know it's the name of one of the songs in Kendricks award-winning album damn 🤣
I just wanna say that the way y'all reacted to lust dna humble was literally the exact way I reacted
Humble? Like the name of the song 😳
BLOOD is also a callback to How Much A Dollar Cost. When he sees the blind woman, he remembers the lesson he learned in HMADC and defies his cautious instincts, only to lose his life over it. This sets up the depression and the feeling of being lost and forsaken by God (ain’t nobody prayin for me) that stays across the whole album.
Kinda like your dad said “no matter what he does he could die” the album is different from his others bcs his whole life he felt like he had this guiding light and he loses that on DAMN. It’s fr his midlife crisis album
As for “what happens on earth stays on earth,” I interpret it as Kendrick talking to himself trying to deal with how small he is compared to the universe, telling himself to zoom in for a sec n focus on what’s in front of him. The whole album is about grappling with simultaneously feeling like the whole world is out to get you and yet you’re insignificant. That duality of perspective is in the title too, feeling damned ofc but also understanding that the world is so big there’s nothing you can say but DAMN
wow
@@cool.fella_8317 this is why he’s the 🐐
Also “BLOOD.” is a reference to the Bloods. Which is what all of Kendrick’s friends are. The “blind lady” that needs his help is the gang. All she wants is his life. BLOOD. ties back to DUCKWORTH. & it basically explains what would would’ve happened had his father died. He would’ve ended up in the gang life. “….while i grew up without a father & die in a gunfight” followed by the immediate rewind back to BLOOD. was a perfect tie in.
It’s so nice that Kendrick and his dad are reviewing his own Damn album
😂😂
FR THO
The last 5-6 lines on duckworth always hit me like a truck, man what a way to close an album
ostavi tag is the greatest finale sample ever produced😂😂 might be a hot take
ive been listening to this album for 4 years and just now found out fear was 8 minutes 💀💀💀 I never skipped it I enjoyed it so much I didn't even peep that
Shit! You’re right 😂 genuinely never noticed
onggg💀
What? That’s crazy. I skip song that are too long unapologetically
WHAT? ITS 8 MINUTES it feels like 4
Your comment is what made me notice and it was one of my top played songs last year lol
So Kendrick named himself "Kung Fu Kenny" after the name of Don Cheadle's character in Rush Hour 2, which why he ended up getting Don Cheadle in the "DNA." video.
@Isaiah Underwood I think you mean DAMN.
@@fries5849 DANG*
Damn! I never would've noticed that reference until u pointed it out...nice!!
Nice😁😁😁.
The second half of DNA is entirely a freestyle. Mike WiLL Made-it said that Kendrick was gonna finish before the second Fox News clip but, he continued without the beat for another minute and a half or so. So he snapped while Mike made another beat to fit the freestyle
Well damn.
Be completely honest bro, you really believe that bullshit? Lmao
holy shit
goddamn
And he did a similar thing for DUCKWORTH. He went full acapella, the whole goddamn song, and then sent his vocals to 9th Wonder after Kenny said he wanted to collab, begging 9th to give him just ONE beat. 9th Wonder gave him 3.
This album is EXTREMELY deep. Considering this was the album that won Kendrick the Pulitzer prize. The album has one meaning going forward and a different one going backward. Going forward, Kendrick is starting out forsaken by god and is a sinner. that's why the first half of the album has all of the aggressive songs. Towards the end, he finds god and changes his life because he has his father in his life.
If you listen to it backwards, Kendricks dad is killed in the KFC robbery and Kendrick now has to grow up without a father and the festering anger that he has for him being murdered. At the beginning, he tries to find peace through god, but the pain is too much, and he falls into the cycle of the hood and becomes violent. In the end, the blind lady (in my opinion) represents either god or the devil, and they are there to take Kendrick from this world.
This is all my opinion, but thats kind of what i got from listening forward and backward
This is completely true and I was looking for someone in the comments to talk about this. A week after DAMN. was released (I think) Kendrick released a collectors edition of the album .NMAD with the same songs just in reverse order. You can confirm it also in the album cover for this collectors edition where Kendrick's in a "dark side" in front of a black wall with a wicked and daring expression in his face. A lot to think about and thanks for commenting this!
What I love about
Your channel vs others. Is your dad is a BLACK MAN. He has lived these experiences like other black children who Kendrick is speaking too. Any race can appreciate the music, but it takes an elderly black man to respect the perspective on a deep level. The language, lingo, and vibe is something he can tune into without much effort.
thats exactly what I was thinking you explained it perfectly
yeah theres really a big difference if it's an elderly black man cause their time was so much worse
I was just posting something similar on their reaction video to GKMC when someone compared them to turning the tables. I do enjoy the latter's work, but especially on hip hop albums (or any "black music") nothing beats the reviews of people who can truly decode and contextualize all the meanings.
Kendrick: reverses lyrics at the star of FEAR
Dad: “what the hell” 😂
I always got the impression that “Feel” came after “Element” intentionally to reflect how Kendrick’s inner insecurities (feel) contrast with his outer dialogue (element). Similar to how art of peer pressure contrasted with backseat freestyle
Nice find!
in ELEMENT he's like "nobody praying for me I don't give a fuck" but in FEEL he's like "oh shit _nobody_ praying for me"
With as much as your dad loves the jazz elements of Kendrick, you gotta get him into Anderson .Paak and Mac Miller’s last few albums. Would also love to see a Silk Sonic reaction from him!
Rihanna’s role in Loyalty is based more symbolic because of what she went through with her accountant. She also raps in the song as well. I respect Pop’s opinion. But I think she is vital to the song.
"I read a case about Rihanna's accountant and wondered, how w did the Bad Girl feel when she looked at them numbers?" -- From the track 'FEAR' :)
the story behind duckworth is just so amazing the fact that Anthony “Top Dawg” was going to kill “Ducky” Kendrick’s father is just so crazy. imagine if that would’ve happened we probably wouldnt have kendrick in our life like we do now.
not hating but kendrick does say “whoever thought the greatest rapper would be from coincidence”
Kendrick has said the album is supposed to be played in reverse order so in that case, its like everything he's done up to blood, is the cause of his death. Succumbing to lust, pride and his soulful desires, eventually leading to him being killed unexpectedly. I can see the blind woman representing judgement, exacting the will of God without bias, but punishing him rightfully for his wrongs, but thats just one interpretation of many. Amazing album
It's no supposed, remember 'You decide'' If kendrick is gonna live or die, aka reverse or normal
The lines “Is it wickedness? Is it weakness?” basically make this album into a choose your own story type of album and are actually the most important lines of the entire album. Every song on the album can fall under either wickedness or weakness and they alternate, for example, BLOOD. is weakness because obviously kendrick dies in the song and the song also has a softer tone. DNA. would be wickedness because of how aggressive and boastful the song is. When you play the album in order, kendrick eventually follows the path of “weakness” and finds god. Once you play it in reverse, the entire story is flipped and he eventually goes down the path of “wickedness” and dies in BLOOD. because of it. It could also be perceived as if playing the album in reverse tells the story of kendrick if anthony killed ducky. Hopefully i explained it well enough this is all from my memory of an analysis i watched on DAMN.
I saw that too
When “FEAR” opens with the vocals in reverse, the first line Kendrick starts with afterwards is “I beat yo ass keep talking back” as the first detail and example of fear coming from his mother as a child..also playing on the duality and album in reverse factor
I remember listening to a podcast that dissects albums. They dissected "YAH" and what I found was super cool is "YAH" is short for "Yahweh". The radar is buzzin' like Kendrick is talking to God over a radio frequency. When Kendrick goes to the line "But it's money to get, bitches to hit, yah
Zeroes to flip, temptation is, yah
First on my list, I can't resist, yah", Kendrick has all of these evil thoughts like "hitting bitches", "temptation", etc. but at the end of all of those lines "YAH" comes in like God is trying to communicate through all the wickedness. Found that kinda cool.
Yah is actually God so u can't really speak both names as two different identities 💯 they're just two different names for two different religions but they're both the same exact person!!!!!! Yet it's actually blasphemous to call either of them by both names!!!! Atleast to the folks that read from the actual Torah & not a "Bible" apperently 💯
You turning it up loud as possible on the DNA beat switch 🤣🔥
So I was taking a walk the other day…
And I seen a woman a blind woman
did you know that if you play the songs from last to first it tells a different story
A long ass walk
man kendrick's body of work is so marvelous that I almost cant even pick a favorite anymore. Every album so top tier and thought provoking. Makes you wonder how his mind works is levels above the ordinary man
FEAR has always been my favorite track on this album and I personally think it should have been the final song. The way it wraps all his thoughts and themes from previous tracks into 1 cohesive song is master class.
I love how you just let that XXX part run with no cuts.
It is the best part of the album and I feel it everytime
DNA still gives me chills.
I wish I could have heard Gucci on the Humble beat. Mike Will originally had that beat reserved for him once he got out of jail when he lost weight.
Wow that beat does sound like it was specifically made for Gucci.
Dna gets me so hype
DAMN. Is a modern day masterpiece 🔥 Can't wait for the new Kendrick album next week !!
I cant wait to see you BOTH react to Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers together for the first time. Kendrick boutta make history again
You guys should also do "untitled unmastered." Demos unreleased for various reasons including deadlines, license clearing issues, etc. Dope little project in between TPAB and DAMN.
I love that mixtape
Thought those were the ones that didn’t make it on gkmc it came out before tpab
@@txdddeclan no it came out after TPAB, they were for that album not for GKMC
I just figure out that even a year after uploading the video, you are still paying attention to the comment section.
It has been said before, but i have to say it again, it is formidable to see you and your Dad bonding and having a walk down Kendrick's discography.
I would love to do that with my Parents, but as a French Listener Bridging the Gap wth them is close to an Herculean Labour.
I definitly enjoyed watching you feeling "XXX.", one of Kendrick's most underrated song IMO.
I appreciate your work.
Thank you.
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
You should still try. If you want to listen to really great French music then slowly branch out then do it. If you have the idea don’t let it slip past you. “French parents react to American rap for the first time” they just need you to slowly branch out. Either way do I toe don’t, but you totally can whenever you want. Have a great day!
Xxx always gets me man.
This album is designed to play backwards according to Kendrick to get the duality
Y’all know what happens on earth stays on earth!
We gone put it in reverse
So we're supposed to listen to the tracklist in reverse from the last track "Duckworth" all the way to the very first track???? Or do u mean he wrote the story in reverse that starts at the last song & ends at the first song in the story he told????
@mattlawrence1932 it's 2 different story's if you play it backwards that's what the weakness and wickedness is for
Kendrick might just be the best poet to ever touch a microphone. I use to think it was 2Pac, but then Kendrick takes it to abother level. DNA alone speaks so much in just 3 minutes that so many other wish they could say. My favorite track on here us FEEL by far. Top 3 albums of all time.
I saw this tour, and the fact that he got an entire Barclays Center to chant “Be Humble” was something that really stood out to me.
I listened to this with my father in law last night. He is an old soul drawn towards classic rock but this album blew him away. He recognized a good majority of the samples he used and how clearly lyrical he is all he could say was DAMN
Haven’t even started the video but I hope you explained the meaning of duck-worth too him 🙏🏾💯 Love the channel ❤️
Can you explain it to me?
@@-vsplxshingv-7813Top Dawg robbed Kendricks fathers KFC and could’ve killed him if Kendricks dad(ducky) wasn’t so nice to him them 20 years later Top Dawg signed kendrick to his label not knowing he had robbed his father
@@-vsplxshingv-7813 i’d explain it to you, but i’m shit at that. You can find some videos on TH-cam that explains it pretty well :)
@@-vsplxshingv-7813 A simple breakdown would be that Anthony is the founder of Top Dawg, Kendrick’s label, and Ducky is Kendrick’s dad. Pretty much Anthony could’ve shot Ducky during a robbery but because Ducky always hooked Anthony up he liked him and wouldn’t ever shoot him. Ducky fathered Kendrick to later have Anthony sign him to his label, Top Dawg Entertainment.
@@wrestler375 so basically Kendrick’s dad helped anthony out, so anthony helped Kendrick’s dad out
can’t express how much i love this channel. seeing your father experience some of my fav albums albums for the first time kind of feels like i am too so thank you (,:
Thanks Kayla ♥️
Curious to see what the total rankings would look like for Pops now that he's deep into Kendricks work
My first full listen of DAMN. Was amazing. This is my favourite album of all time. The lyrics, the beat, the story. Some of the words he says hit me in the right spot everytime. Truly a great artist. A real artist.
15:19 that’s exactly how I felt and exactly what I did when this album first came out
My face was still stuck from the beat switch and I wasn’t ready to continue LIFE until I heard that shit again
The bass In that second half hits so hard I still use it to test earphones and tune my equalizer presets to this day
It’s the last song to stop clipping the audio
This is awesome.
Your dad is so lucky that he gets to listen to Kendrick for the first time and then go right into the new album. Most of us have been waiting 5 years for this new album.
Before K Dot stops the world again, just wanna say real quick that I found this channel while in the hospital with Covid pneumonia back in December. The few vids that were up at the time distracted me from the pain and I've watched every vid since. Bridging the Gap is a necessary vibe and I can't think of anything more exciting than getting new Dot and then experiencing it with y'all this time.
Bless y'all and let's dissect some bars next week lol let's go! 👏👏👏
Wow this is awesome. Thanks for being here, glad we can all help each other through the ups and down of life. ♥️
@@BridgingTheGapYT Absolutely! 🙏
well this comment aged well... 3 days later Kendrick drops
@@taejronlawrence3967 “Look what I done for you”
I don’t know how old you are, but I’m 24 and I love reliving these albums with both of you. For example, GKMC throws me back to freshman year of high school, this throws me back to summer 2017, and all of these bring back the memories of those times in my life. Seeing you and your father react to these Kendrick albums has been awesome to watch and I love the relationship you both share. Thanks for doing this and I hope it has and will continue to be a great experience for you both.
I'm 65 years young!
GOD is one of my favorite records it's one of those windy day, windows down with ya hand out the window singing "laughing to the bank like ahhh haaaa" at the top of your lungs type record for me.
But far as meaning goes I always apply the saying, "we make plans, God laughs."
First time viewer, this makes my heart warm man this is so cool. Spending this time with your dad and having it saved somewhere you can access anytime is priceless
Bruh I’m not gonna lie at first I thought this was just gonna be another gimmick where people just listen to popular music for views, but your dad is mad insightful. It took me multiple listens to pick up on what he does. Awesome to see, love the content
What's good bro, just want to give you props on the relationship you and your pops hold. you can tell through the screen its super genuine how it should be! even as life happens and we all get older and for you to be putting him onto music from this era and him enjoying it is Big time!!! Keep the content coming.
Hell yeah been waiting for this one🙏 It’s nice to see that your dad truly appreciates Kendrick now, awesome vid Fr❤️
Technically the Black Panther soundtrack was his last album. It was officially unofficially in the discography.
Listening to your dad talk around 10:15 made me realise the genius of Kendricks storytelling. Your dad was instantly hooked in the story and had this picture in his mind's eye about the lady etc. Made me realise I did too. Such a genius
I hope 1day I could share precious moments like these with my son. The dynamic, friendship, & chemistry is beautiful! I love it!
This is gunna be great! Gotta go watch from the beginning so enjoy the rest of the album ✌️
Been watching these Kendrick reaction vids with you and your pops today, and I'm really loving it! And his dad jokes, very sweet interaction. I don't think I could do this with my dad when it comes to music, but sometimes we are able to when it comes to film. Thanks for sharing with us his introductions to the music you listen to.
Bro Kendrick is my favorite artist so this is everything. Your channel is great and you and your dad are so wholesome. I hope your channel keeps growing greatly and y’all can thrive from this. Thank you sirs
Preciate you mane
Yo, I really appreciate how you two get into the sound of the music and the feeling of the music. The technical chat is great. Sometimes I yell at the videos like "Yesss, DISECT THE ALBUM!" I enjoy hearing Rod Sr. make those deep connections or do call backs to connect the theme of the album. Fire content, as per usual. Had to turn the notifications on!
🔥🔥🔥
I’m a Korean American from the bay who moved to a border town with Mexico. This video is so therapeutic for me because it’s such a comfortable environment to explore my favorite artists and albums with bright minded people. Thank you brothas
Thank you for being here!
Love it guys! Truly the black Turning the Tables 🙌🏼
I’ve watched all the reactions and this one gotta be one of my favorite, genuine appreciation for the artistry
1:36:10 Trivia: _"What Happens on Earth, Stays on Earth"_ was the album's original title.
Thank u for this reaction, what a nice relationship with your father! One day I will listen all this album with my daughter 🤞🏽
Y’all have come a long way from the first video. Loving this journey and can’t wait to experience Kendrick’s new album with you guys. A podcast would be dope definitely consider it
Preciate you
I haven’t missed a reaction video of yall, and I appreciate everything you guys post and do, I love Kendrick so much and I love the way we share that love through listening and enjoying his music together….
Keep the good work ❤️❤️❤️
Luv fam. Thank you.
Really love you guys. You've become my favorite reaction channel. I'm from South Africa and my aunt is from Washington DC.
Your Kendrick React series made my week, and its got me so excited for Mr. Morale and the Big Steppers. Thank you, guys. Can't wait to see what yall think about the new album.
Finally joined the Patreon so I could watch the full reactions for these Kendrick albums. Keep up the great content.
Addicted to the channel! Discovered y'all a few days ago and have almost every video! Love it guys, keep it up!!! Might have to show your dad the "Carter" albums soon!.
Thank you! (Dad)
enjoyed this a lot!
if y’all ever trying to check out a different artist that your dad likely hasn’t really listened to who went through a pretty great creativity arch, I’d love to see you guys react to some Mac Miller stuff
What's so great about Mac Miller? I honestly tried to get into him and his voice is hard to listen to
@@ChildishGambeaner it’s mostly his evolution and what he says, his voice was a turn off to me at first but as i started listening it’s what made him unique in his lane, he brought us into his world as you listened, i recommend just listening to circles, than swimming, and go backwards from there
@@ChildishGambeaner in my opinion the production level on Mac’s songs is insane. With the last three albums especially being a whole vibe. Like with TPAB, it’s hard to pick out individual songs to listen to on their own, but give yourself time to listen to the whole albums and just zone out to it, it’s incredible.
@@ChildishGambeaner his production was fire and he had an ear for the sound . Bars are hit or miss . Check out his project faces
@@BigsmokeATL one thing I will say is all you guys that are fans of Mac are respectful in your replies instead of the usual fans that shit on someone for their opinion. I'll definitely check out those suggestions
IVE BEEN WAITING FOR THIS!! great reaction, love kendrick, love this album, much love to u! bless
i love your dad’s reaction to LOVE. i played it in the car when it first came out and my mom had sort of the same response. Every now and then i hear her playing the song on her own!
If anyone was wondering where Kendrick got the name “Kung Fu Kenny” it’s from Rush Hour 2. Chris Tuckers character refers to himself as Kung Fu Kenny in the movie
Thank you for showing me the dissect podcast it's crazy how many fun facts and things I missed on to pimp a butterfly
Such a good podcast
I love watching yalls videos cause the fact you get to do this with your dad and it just so cool y’all both love music and can articulate it so well 🙏🙏
Saving this for later but just wanted to let you both know how much I appreciate this channel and its content. Also thank you for putting me onto The Dissect Podcast! It’s soooo good!
Appreciate you being here 🤝🏾
There was a really interesting or maybe important line in Lust. When he says “lately in James 4:4 friend of the world is enemy of the lord.” I think this is what Kendrick is battling he doesn’t want to be damned if he becomes a friend of the world.(Mainly the world’s social systems AKA, 7 deadly sins) Lust being one of them and Pride, etc. And that is where the duality theme can come from, the duality being Kendrick’s effort to battle trying not to be damned.
🔥🔥
Kendrick: no album roll-out
Rod: *Fine, I'll do it myself*
I always have a great time chilling and listening to music with you guys, thanks for the time you put into all these videos
Thanks for being here!
This is such a cool vibe and new take on reacting to videos. Loving the series like feel to it keep it up
This album is wonderful and just as ripe for dissection as TPAB!!! Kendrick said this album is his personal favorite that he's done and I can see why. An important factor my girlfriend pointed out to me with DAMN was that the album had a non-linear narrative, as opposed to TPAB which tells one consecutive story. (With occasional callback and narrative parallels) What my gf explained to me was that basically, BLOOD and DUCKWORTH are bookends to an anthology of songs that comprise this "mixtape". I personally believe that the LP as a whole is more in line with the mixtape feel, even forgetting the literal presence of a dj. It's up to the listeners to connect this massive jigsaw puzzle Kendrick has laid out in front of us. He's told us a deeply complex story, told out of order, and gave us everything we needed to deduce how everything in this album was connected. The more you revisit this album, an interconnectedness starts to be noticed throughout various subject matters and styles.
Personally, I love the album, and the way he put together a project as rich and multi-faceted as this goes to show why this album won the pullitzer. Just like everything Kendrick puts out, this shit's pretty deep!
Sidenote: I'm so excited for the release of Mr Morale & The Big Steppers and your guys' eventual reaction. You're becoming one of my fave youtube channels, so keep it up! :]
Well said!
I see that yall getting ready for the Mr Morale & the Big Steppers drop lol; i been listening to Kendrick 24/7 to prepare for the album and I hope you too enjoy the album aswell!!
Let’s gooo shoutout to you and your dad can’t wait to enjoy this album again with you both
Yo this my favorite father son music breakdown channel. This my favorite album from Kendrick, and it dropped on my birthday!! 🔥🔥
1:01:54 is the best part, you guys were both feeling that one, that song is also my favorite one. maybe its the flow on it, or the lyrics, but probably just hit me at a time in my life when i needed it. good stuff man. also, theres a video about how the beat to that song was made, great watch
its cool how much more comfortable your dad is getting in these reactions 😂
Literally, that final line of Duckworth made me a fan, through and through. Thanks for sharing this, and your wondeful relationship to your father.
Thanks for coming back and sitting down to do this guys
My second favorite Kenny album. His use of writing style similar to Shakespeare is immaculate. He speaks so deep on each song and every one of them has underlying meanings. Also your dad is the coolest m. Much love 💜⚜️
My favorite Kendrick album is GKMC but my favorite song is DUCKWORTH
This is easily my favorite TH-cam channel, I love the music choices but you and your dad are great at conversating the album themes.
also, please consider The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill sometime soon haha Thank you!
That was a good, deep talk with your Pops. Can't wait until the new album review!
You guys are by far my new favorite dad reacts channel.
Pops didn’t peep on fear …that he put it in reverse so that when he came in wit the verse he said “I’ll beat ya ass you keep talking back” get it talking backwards= talking back ?
It definitely makes more sense to give him a Pulitzer prize 🏆 for "To Pimp a Butterfly 🦋" especially because of how jazzy & unique & deeply structured & perfectly thought out that album truly is compared to any other rap album ever made in history & i also thought that's the album he actually won the Pulitzer prize for too at first but I'm not mad that he got it for this album because this has three of K.dot's best songs ever💯💯💯💯💯 LOYALTY , GOD , & LOVE & basically every song from the "Good Kid mAAd city" album & of course his feature verse on SiR's "Hair Down" single from his "Chasing Summer" album (Best R&B album since the mid 90's literally) are all by far my favorite songs of this K.dot man that was ironically born on the same exact day as me , in the same exact year & went through all the similar life trials & tribulations as I did only I wasn't a "good kid" like him but I realized how much that both of us Gemini ♊ do have the same exact mentality as eachother & I didn't even know anything about Kendrick Lamar other than his name untill long after I discovered all those things about him that we actually had in common with eachother & that's what forced me into listening to his music finally 💯 Crazy huh???? 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
I cant wait to see the Mr Morale reaction!! Once again didn’t disappoint🔥🔥🙏🏼🙏🏼
Been looking forward to this one, love this album!
I know I'm late to this but the title of this album was SUPER close to being "What Happens on Earth, Stays on Earth", as your father pointed out multiple times but Kendrick thought it was too long. Eventually that title was changed to DAMN . because "damned if i do and damned if i dont" and that's what he felt after such power hitting songs like DNA. and HUMBLE. I think it's a perfect title. After every song I just sit and think "Damn....." We're witnessing a generational legend, one of the greatest to ever do it.
I like how Pop's wasn't even vibing too hard to XXX. He was just agreeing. "Yep. That's Right. Uh Huh." 😂😂😂
That’s you sitting next to your old version of yourself and your pops sitting next to his younger version of his self. You are your father’s son man and I love y’all relationship wish it was like that with my dad too. Love this channel I’m subscribing🔥🔥
Been waiting for this one!!! 🔥🔥
Yeah, it felt that Pulitzer was actually for Pimp, it was like when they give an Actor an Oscar when it’s really for a previous role, they’re admitting they fucked up.
Yes I think they just got confused & named the wrong Kendrick album at that ceremony & after the guy said the "DAMN." album title name , it was too late & they couldn't take it back 💯
@@mattlawrence1932damn 100% deserved the award
2014 forest hills drive is a great album that would be what I would like to see after Kendrick’s album
I can’t wait to watch this channel grow you guys are so great. You guys should do some single song reactions too if u ever have the free time. But y’all So sick man!
Ive been waiting for this day!
