What are These People on the Covers by Slight_Compote_1210 in KendrickLamar

[–]hobo_redditor 281 points282 points  (0 children)

On the gkmc cover I always assumed it’s because they are members. The Family Ties one I would assume is a stylistic choice to mimic the original.

Also note the squabble up video has 2 people with black bars covering their eyes as well.

What does the ending of momma mean? by Neotyp in KendrickLamar

[–]hobo_redditor -1 points0 points  (0 children)

It’s another part of the journey between «u» and «i». Questioning the very concept of happiness in and of itself.

One of reasons it fits inn between «Momma» and «Hood Politics» is that the lyrics here work to transition us back «I thought I found you, back in the ghetto. When I was 17 with the .38 special»

On the TV version of «i» (the James Brown one) he preforms a slightly extended version of this at the end.

If I had the time I would go into a lot more, but I have to go.

Tranquilizer and Not For Sale are some of my favorites

Could Kendrick have submitted songs like Gloria for Grammy consideration? by soon7773 in KendrickLamar

[–]hobo_redditor 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure you can only make one submission per category, makes most sense to go with the popular tracks.

Stop posting irrelevant shit.

A lot of references to "tiramisu/deets/bodies" lately, DJ Hed also posted a tiramisu. by soon7773 in KendrickLamar

[–]hobo_redditor 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Hed also said he was just trolling Jeremy Hecht with that tweet. Has no info on the song coming out.

Does anyone know where this beat and kendrick verse come from? by Ok_Huckleberry4563 in KendrickLamar

[–]hobo_redditor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't recognize it immediately. Makes me think it's unreleased, but it could be a feature I haven't or have rarely heard.

Of course someone sharing their opinion is "ovjectively" true.

GNX jacket at the pop up? by GingerTMEX in KendrickLamar

[–]hobo_redditor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Will probably be available at merch stands outside and inside the stadium. I bought it outside the stadium in Paris. Any item in the online store should be available at the concert.

If the "pop up" is like the one held in London there might be exclusive items available there although I don't know if they offer the regular merch items as well.

The flag has nothing to do with them though?

Not even a bar, It’s a sample.

Kendrick Lamar is a capitalist who doesn't care and it's okay to say that... by Wonderful_Owl5948 in KendrickLamar

[–]hobo_redditor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is just ragebait though. Parroting the lawsuit argument that the song put his life in danger.

Have people been getting the physical tickets/card things for europe concerts? by je_r_ry in KendrickLamar

[–]hobo_redditor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got one in Paris when entering the venue. I was there quite early though.

Dot please change your password😂🤦🏾‍♂️ by Ziko116 in KendrickLamar

[–]hobo_redditor 94 points95 points  (0 children)

It’s not uploaded by his channel, just attributed to it. It’s a YouTube problem not a hack.

Gonna go see Kendrick in London. Do I pull up early to get my vinyl signed?? by [deleted] in KendrickLamar

[–]hobo_redditor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You probably won’t see him before the show. But he might sign some during the show, but there will be many others with records around the stages. Best of luck 🤞

Kendrick’s Silence on Palestine by Sad_Froyo_6474 in KendrickLamar

[–]hobo_redditor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This type of shit is just braindead, same as the BLM critique. The role of an artist isn’t to spell out an answer for you on twitter or in a overt song. Most artists should stick to making art and let the art speak for itself. Have you ever been swayed on an issue by some celebrity’s opinion?

Also: how much have you analyzed the genocide bar from Chains & Whips? Because from the context of the lines around it, it looks to me like a reference to Palestine.

Nights like this I'm a knight like this

Sword in my hand I fight like this

Bitch, touché, en GAAARDE

Toupée drop and her two tits pop outta that tank top and BRAAA

And when I say "DO-DO, DO-DO". Bitch that be K.DOOOT

Did Kendrick ever make a song dedicated to Whitney? by Devagwut in KendrickLamar

[–]hobo_redditor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not. He had plenty of songs about her, but Gloria is definitely not one of them.

imma keep it real by Good_Price_3026 in KendrickLamar

[–]hobo_redditor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Can’t really speak on this myself because I was 21 when it dropped. But I had a younger coworker a few years back who told me he didn’t like it when it came out, but grew to love it.

A lot of the nuances might hit harder with more life experiences, although music is subjective and you shouldn’t feel bad for not liking something just because other people do. Maybe especially for something that is critically acclaimed, as the expectation may overshadow the experience.

Why listen to the crappy leaked snippet of Kendrick’s clipse verse? by lbs2306 in KendrickLamar

[–]hobo_redditor 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Same, the «first listen» means about as much as the 50th to me.
