U is his conscious talking to himself and the guilt that he is feeling for becoming a famous artist and leaving the people from his neighbourhood behind. It is a lot of negative and self hate thoughts. I is the contrast of U where he is able to overcome those depressive thoughts and is able to love himself for who he is! Hopes this clarifies some things. Thanks Craig!

Hes speaking about himself in third person in the song U.

yeah I like the reaction, but it always baffles me when people can't tell that's what he's doing in that song.

Oh gosh, I'm always so excited when someone starts branching out in music and discovers Kendrick. Welcome, I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

Me as a huge hiphop fan can't imagine not bumping my head to the beat, great for you tho that you found out about kendrick, one of the greatest minds that has ever walked this earth in my humble opinion.

I guess it takes a while, and my head is in the habit of bopping to different beats. I'm so happy to have discovered his sounds.

Great video! It can be hard to understand his music the first couple of times without doing research about him and his background. He is hard to do first reactions to but great understanding of the second song. The album version of "i" is better imo.

Cheers, I've listened to them a few times now and with the help of some comments here I'm starting to get it. But still a long way to go...

The two songs are related but not in the way they thought. I is him accepting what he laid bare in U.
