[@santiagopinzon1429]

domino2515 Terrace Martin recorded that song before the album's release and Kendrick decided to use a snippet of it for The Blacker The Berry, then Terrace released the full version of the recorded song in his album Velvet Portraits a year later

[@mohammedomar7911]

Duckworth? same drum line

[@colorblindmusic1]

Terrace Martin was actually a producer on TPAB, so he probably wrote that beat for Kendrick and then turned it into his own song. Or he wrote it as his own song and then used it on TPAB before he released his album

[@Pixova]

Kendrick samplin shit from 2016 on a 2015 record

[@Flealfy45]

It just wasn't released yet. For instance Jimi Hendrix's Hey Joe is a cover of Tim Rose, Rose just said that Hendrix's version was better and should be released before his.
