ANd i can confidently tell you that he is much more of a battle rapper than storyteller. I do think that Darkness is one of his best artworks and by far the best written one but comparing to Kendrick, Em is full of songs where he just praises himself. Yes, he can always twist his tongue and do it special way and his delivery makes it special each time but he doesn't really raise some interesting topics often. Leaving heaven? Great. Stepping Stones? awesome. Headlights? Heck yeah, masterpiece. But he doesn't do it that often. Kendrick though.. he uses almost every opportunity to deliver a message, to help his audience. And so does Em but he odes it much much more rarely. They both do an amazing work but i can't say that Em is a better storyteller than Lamar

Kendrick is an open book when it comes to his music. Nothing is sugar coated, or skipped over. He never has strayed away from talking about his grief, guilt, regrets, hardships, mistakes, triumphs, and everything else in between. He doesn’t talk about it unless he’s lived it. One day there is going to be a movie made about Kendrick’s life and I can’t imagine a world where it wouldn’t win huge awards. He has enough experiences in his life to have lived several lives. He is wise beyond his years. Thank God he decided to pursue music from a young age. Sharing a window into your life through your music thus far has truly been a treat, thank you Kendrick ❤️

My first REAL exposure to Kendrick Lamar was on SNL many years ago with "I". I was impressed. His stage presence and lyricism move you. Led me to see him live for his D.A.M.N. tour with Jay Rock and School Boy Q in West Palm Beach then again this year in Tampa for Mr. Morale. This guy will remain one of the most renowned hip-hop artists for years to come. Congrats on the deserved success! His music might not be everyone's cup-o-tea but this 58 year old white dude will continue to support his artistry!

This song is a true musical masterpiece.

This might be SOTY, it's such a relatable song when you have a dead-beat dad. God bless Kenny.

Man the chorus by Sampha is something else It also goes great with Kendrick's voice

Kendrick rap is so visceral, so metaphorical...it's as if he's speaking directly into one's soul and daring us; if to say, go deeper and see the bigger picture around you.

God I love Sampha so much this performance was amazing the walls closing in were crazy!

This is some deep visuals frfr, the emotions and vurnerability to craft a set, and describe it what sounds line therapy and venting, the walls closing in on him, and the anxiety of his trauma
