Fun fact: This album tells two stories in one. If u listen to BLOOD. To DUCKWORTH. It tells us a story about Kendrick going from wicked to a sane man but he dies either way to a gunshot. But if u listen to DUCKWORTH. To BLOOD. It tells us that Kendrick went from sane to wicked and died either way but it was more impactful since his name gets dragged across the mud by the media after his death.

The normal album is the path to wickedness. This was the path where anthony killed ducky and kendrick grew up without a father. He dies in a gunfight from lack of his father’s teachings. Backwards he takes the path of weakness. Anthony let ducky live and kendrick grew up with a great upbringing. He dies in blood anyway due to his hospitality. You choose how he dies. “Damned if i do, Damned if i dont.”

Kendrick won a Pulitzer price for literature (or poetry or both) with this album. The only music of any genre in history to ever win a Pulitzer price, ever. None before, none after and none ever will. It was certainly unique for a rapper or any musician to win an international award for literature and poetry. He is undoubtedly the best rap artist and rapper, unafraid to call out the black community and the pervasive racism and injustice of the system. That’s why he is often maligned by his own community and applauded by others who sees no colour and thus able to appreciate the truthfulness and unbiased sincerity of his message. Honestly, you never get to appreciate any of Kendrick’s albums on first listening and you need to be able to understand that he’s rhymes are lit but not easily understood from easy listening. You need to be intentional and smart enough to appreciate the nuances and subtlety of his songs. He is a generational talent.

I'ev always taken FEEL to be an allusion to a soul struggling to self-soothe/someone sitting through mental health treatment. With the repeated "I feel..." statements, the rapid swings in musical/vocal intensity, and the way Kendrick keeps coming back to the same sticking point ("a'int nobody praying for me"), it gives this vibe of listening to someone who is at their limit venting to a therapist.

Hi, music business student here! I found your talk about radio interesting & I thought I'd chime in. Radio is far less important now, still kinda important but the people who listen to radio are just spoonfed anything and don't really care what is on there so long as it's "radio friendly". The reason it's good that these songs are shorter is for streaming & playlists. We have a low-attention span nowadays and not many people will be happy with a song that is over 6 minutes really, because it "ruins the playlist". Kendricks old albums were made mostly for vinyl play, so a 12 minute song works for that because it is essentially one side of a vinyl.

HOT TAKE: PRIDE is a super important and underrated song to the album’s concept. It opens with “Love is gonna get you killed / but Prides gonna be the death of you and me” sung by the same voice talking about “wickedness or weakness, you decide” on BLOOD. Pride is also the middle track of the album (which is important because you can play the album frontward or backward) and why the mix of Kendrick’s voice swings from low to high pitch to symbolize the two perspectives and dual-concept.

Kendrick is the kind of success story that encourages me as a underground artist with a small following. Seeing how he’s developed his skills and slowly blown up after seizing each and every opportunity he’s been giving has been inspirational! Mans has quickly become a mainstay in the industry and for good reason. Dude is too nice! I know if I put in the work, I can reach a larger audience some day too, but for now, I’m happy being a supporter. My turn will come too. Salute to Kendrick🔥
