You missed one! "led" = "lead", like in a pencil. Which I know isn't actually lead but ykno.

9:45 i always thought that it was saying “thou shall not steal” instead of “I saw you first” hinting at the fact that some artists will “steal” ideas and beats/lyrics from other artists and be vain and act like they came up with them, showing their misplaced pride.

you are so underrated. I would have never thought of gloria like that. u earned a sub

Great video! You should analyze how Kendrick is massively influenced by the rap goat yuno miles next!

was waiting for this video

another amazing video!!! your breakdowns are really on another level man

I wouldn't ever thought that this song is so damn deep. Thanks for this analysis fr. I'd love to see here nother songs on gnx 'cause I know that there's also hidden meaning to them but I'm just too dumb to figure them out on my own. You're doing great job bud! You just earned a sub!

Top tier analysis! Love this keep it up!

Broo u deserve much more fame keep up the good work fam 💯

You’re doing really good work, deserve the views

Great analysis and very early too!

ok I just watched the video, keep up the good work, I really enjoyed watching it.

9.87/10 video, needs more mustard

MUSTAAAAAAAAARD

DAMN muy buena explicación pai

i’m back to inform that it happened

i think i just caught something in the last line.. when he says "your murder's just a bit slower", he may not just be referring to you (or any regular person) being a murderer , but also to the fact that you are one of the people being murdered.. if everyone's a killer then someone's goanna kill you

“If could be perfect he would but he can’t so just accept his flaws”…..bars

As someone who loves Kendrick and could yap about his songs all day, PRIDE and DUCKWORTH are probably my favourite songs from damn. I love that you brought up some points I had about pride but I also feel like some parts of pride are talking about gang culture and the way it impacts people.

Yo loved your clarity on this. Another song I'd love to hear you dissect is called Let The Rhythm Just by The Polish Ambassador. Hop you keep making more videos!

This video made me realize that Kendrick chose the right name for the album. All I'm thinking is "damn" after watching 😅. It's so much deeper and more interesting than I thought. It reminds me of that BigBoyTV interview where Kendrick ranked DAMN as his favourite album he's made - and for good reason. It really is that awesome, it just took me a while to realize. Great video!

This is crazy kendrick 🐐

9:30 I’m not sure either if it’s a reference or not since I don’t know his whole discography by heart but I thought that line was just “god” saying that he sent people to doubt saba along his journey perhaps to toughen him up and make sure Saba is certain this is the path he wanted. This is also a continuation of the previous few bars you looked at like “I sent obstacles on your way, to make sure this what you mean” where those people (non-believers, doubters, haters, etc.) are just an example of an obstacle. Despite this, as you were saying, Saba’s love for music, his fans, and those close to him prevailed. Those obstacles never stopped Saba. Honestly a great message highlighting how we should never listen to the naysayers telling us “you can’t achieve this.” This and other obstacles can be “bigger than beats” but we must “fear them the least” knowing nothing is truly insurmountable. Just my thoughts rambling a bit. Nice analysis though I also really fw this song

I think DUCKWORTH. is a very important song aswell. Possibly even more important than PRIDE. imo

DUCKWORTH and PRIDE are the duo.

You’re just hearing what he’s saying at base level.

We not gonna talk about how its the 7 song out of 14 =7/14=7:14... Matthew 7:14 "But small is the gate and narrow the road that leads to life, and only few find it" the narrow gate represents the only way to salvation which is through jesus christ. Kenny is a mastermind with his albums.

U should do Count Me out too

Most important and best song is fear

No, he just doesn’t give a fuck about your ethnicity

amazing

Its insane how the reaction to every song in the album is "Damn"

Good review and good song but i feel like i heard that beat somewhere else

Bro has never heard "U" 💀

Could you do a song review on DUCKWORTH? I feel like on it’s surface it’s already deep but it has more to it. Keep up the vids tho🔥🔥

YOU ARE THE GOAT FINALLY SOME SABA RESPECT FIREEE VIDEO

4YEO video is still being produced (currently editing) just loved this song and decided to make a quick video out of it, hope you enjoy :)

Luv finna get young Blud killed

Is Kendrick prejudice?*

This single song is possibly why this is Kendrick’s favorite project he’s done

a theory i thought of is that PRIDE. sounds like a humble and sad tone because proud people claim to be humble, while HUMBLE. sounds like a prideful and angry tone because humble people claim to be proud

Im such an idiot ive been discrediting god for my accomplishments and I hope god can forgive me for my sins and embrace me in his arms and accept me into heaven Amen

This was dope!

For some reason this was the only song not included from DAMN on the jukebox at the local bar i used to frequent. I always felt disappointed about that.

4yeo is a 5/5

This gotta be one of Kendrick’s most underrated songs

4:28 The 24 bar also probably referencing that in a perfect world you’ll probably live to see another 24 hours. Meaning in a perfect world there’s uncertainty so a perfect world might not be as perfect as everyone thinks like the fans think of Kendrick being the perfect poet or rapper. Idk it’s a hunch I guess

Keisha song is so good and the fact we got a different perspective from her sister on Sing About Me is just great storytelling
