Black is black regardless of how you walk or talk. That said, his Jewish half does allow him access to things most might not have access to. But if you think "the culture" is anything more than the most elaborate bs act on earth, you don't know black people at all. I'm black so I can call it like it is. It's always an act. It's an act that was taught to us while our parents were at work and we were at home with the TV on watching bet and MTV. The entire thing is an act.

Kendrick made that so very clear. Lil Wayne told him to "Keep it Canadian," yet here we are.

New Ho King is a Chinese Resturant on Spadina Avenue in Toronto. New Ho King is ALSO where a Toronto rapper named Sizzlac filmed his last music video before being shot and killed. Sizzlac got shot and killed days after dropping a diss record titled “Realest in the 6”, and in the music video for the record he’s at New Ho King. Sizzlac is also rumored to be one of the people that robbed Drake at gunpoint in 2009 Drake recently has aligned himself with another Toronto rapper named Pressa, who is apart of the Driftwood CRIPS gang. The Driftwood Crips and Sizzlacs gang have had a long rivalry. So, when Kendrick says that he’s at New Ho King with a blammy and that he can do it on camera. He’s saying that unlike Sizzlac, he’s in Drakes city (Toronto) at New Ho King with a gun and that he’s ready to do it on camera.

You addressed many of the bars and lines the best you could and it all makes sense with how you broke it down. Weird thing is, many of the guys I see speaking on this record are in the music business somehow be it mainstream or even battle rap and have big followings, yet your analysis is FLAWLESS. I can honestly tell that your music journey comes with hard work and studying. And The fact that this reaction was immediate makes it that much more special! Keep doing your thing man!!

The beginning when Kendrick is shouting “Shoo!” It’s a double entendre for saying shoo away a dog and he’s saying it in the way Drake makes his Ad libs, clowning him like he did to Big Sean.

@@_truthBtold I've said it before. Kendrick Lamar is the Christopher Nolan of rap. Started out brilliant. But now, fans are so afraid of being called stupid for not understanding his art that they overcompensate and makeup all kinds of bs to try and make it make sense.

And don't forget, grunts and sounds were the first form of audible communication human beings came up with, tens of thousands of years ago, so every noise he makes is a double entendre for him being an example of intelligent life as opposed to AI...

@nebula8246 a nice DRESS is not a SKIRT though, I said “Skrrrt” not “Drrreeess” so that wouldn’t be a double or a bar that made sense in full.

Damn, this was a thorough breakdown… thanks man. You caught nearly everything. A few more points: 1. He made three switches, a reference to when he said “I hope they came with 3 switches” on Like That 2. The backwards bit at the beginning says “everything they said about me is true,” which is a sound bite ripped from The Wiz when the find The Wiz (Richard Pryor). He’s calling Drake a fraud 3. The beat sampled in the intro was Teddy Pendergrass’ “you’re My Latest, My Greatest Inspiration.” 4. Kendrick singing at the end, We don’t wanna hear you say n***a no more,” is an interpolation of Kanye Wests lyric from Get ‘Em High, “We don’t wanna hear that weak sh*t no more.” 5. The Dementia/killer bit was likely aimed at J Prince though I don’t really know the depth of those claims. 6. The cadence Kendrick used when he rapped the bars, “I hate when a rapper talk about guns, then somebody die They turn into nuns, then hop online, like "Pray for my city" He fakin' for likes and digital hugs” emulates J Cole’s flow from First Person Shooter 7. When he says “everybody is an a be DeMun till they get chipped by a throwaway.” Obviously alluding to Drake’s song Demons… but also, Future’s middle name is DeMun and he has a track called Throwaway. Under the definition of Euphoria Kendrick provides, the usage example says, “The had almost a week to recover from the euphoria of Tuesday’s series winning victory.” Does this support the assertion that Kendrick has another track chambered? Man, what I really want is for Kendrick to bite the beat for Back to Back and record a diss track over the beat, then blast Drake when he tries to get it taken down.
