>Kendrick puts out a seemingly shallow banger as a single

There's a ton of meaning to it. Everything is an oxymoron. The beat is very reminiscent of the Memphis rap scene from the 90s, and back then the lyrics were always back styling and flexing. I think he's taking that and molding it into something else. You want to get up and feel prideful and dance to the song but instead he tells you to sit down.

He tells you to remain calm and keep your head level. The photoshop/naturality line is also very important and aids the theme even further. He takes a seemingly attractive model, then removes her from heavy video/photo editing on both her face and body.

It shows that we're all the same. We all have our faces dotted with spots or pimples here and there from time to time, with our own little other "imperfections" to boot. He also puts himself through that photoshop editor. He shows you that he's also human.

I think it's a beautiful meaning. If TPAB was a comment on being black in America (amongst other things) then his newer album will focus on the trials and tribulations of being human.

All I know is I won't be buying it.
Bye Kendrick, it was all good until it lasted

>>71884593
>Banga
FIFH FIFY

It really reminds me of backstreet freestyle in his delivery, and that track fits great in the album.
Still a bit disappointed

>>71884497
BUT MUH KENDRICK HAS IT ALL PLANNED!!!! ITS ALL PART OF A SCHEME! BEATING COMMERCIAL RAPPERS AT THEIR OWN GAEM!!!! NIGGGGGGGGGGGG SHIEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEET

>>71884617
:(

>>71884619
Why would you false flag on /mu/ of all places?

>>71884588
what did Kek mean by this?

>>71884619
>good until it lasted
this makes zero fucking sense

>>71884497
I think it's mocking the hedonistic braggadocios style of mainstream rap. Even down to the meaningless gaudy symbolism of the music video.

Not a huge fan of this track, The Heart Part 4 was much better (even though it won't be on the album). That being said, it doesn't do much to dampen my hype. Kendrick hasn't disappointed yet and The Heart is enough to convince me he still hasn't fallen off.

>>71884588
The shit just dropped can you people relax, i haven't even gotten to analyzing the lyrics yet myself

>>71884588
tl;dr the song is pretty mediocre but I'm just dickriding Kendrick

>>71884677
Wow /mu/ is so retarded holy shit

>>71884662
His music . His music was good until this year. He's getting worse and his fans look at him like a god of rap.

>>71884752

leave him alone hes 13

>>71884752
Not him but rap music like kendrick has a lot more lyrics then the trash you listen to, and thus pay close attention and deciphering lyrics is part of the experience, not that other genres don't allow for this experience, but none of them do it like rap.

>>71884696
Ten years from now TPAB is going to be viewed as an essential classic hip-hop album and here you are on a Chinese cartoon imageboard denying it

>>71884497
He did the same thing with Backseat Freestyle on GKMC. The rest of the album might be totally different and this song will be the "ironic" banger that fits into the narrative.

>>71884745
That's cause his the greatest rap artist in existence

>>71884824
>shit hook
>banger

>>71884795
:(

>>71884805
I love tpab far more then gkmc, it's the better album, but if you think the sound of HUMBLE is anything more then an ironic banger then you're an idiot

>>71884805
Typical insecure Kendrick stan. You live and die by this manlet's critical acclaim and legacy. The guy you replied to didn't even mention TPAB.

>>71884824
Yeah but Backstreet Freestyle is actually a good song that I'd want to play in the car and rap along to with my friends. This isn't.

>>71884826
Care to explain?

this might be kendricks pablo
though without the whole cultural phenomenon aspect

>>71884617
Typical degenerate newfag that just stumbled upon /mu/.

>>71884860
He didn't really mention anything so I had to guess at what he was getting at

>guy makes attempt at analysis
>other anon shit on him and attack his character instead of explaining why his analysis is wrong
great discussion

oh yeah uh huh mmhmm oh yes relatable lol fucking lmao haha ;) oh yeeeahhhhh that feel aha woo yup lollllll ;)))) :)

just pirate that shit before it even releases, it's not like kendrick is getting more than a dollar if you buy it

pablo was really not that good, but i see what you mean

I thought this track weak at first, but man is it growing on me. Can't stop listening to it.

Highly doubt kendrick will drop a pop rap album after dropping the heart part 4.

MY LEFT STROKE JUST WENT VIEE RAWLLL

I liked mad city and TPAB a lot, and I thought this song was fucking awful. The beat sounds like it was made in 10 minutes, and the bars are really weak for the pedestal everyone's put Kendrick on. It sounds all around amateur.

>>71884497
Been a kendrick stan since section.80
This song is a fucking banger
fuck you if you think this is trash
Kendrick is God. Kendrick is the King
Kendrick is number 1

>>71884855
That's just speculation and I want to agree with you

But remember when Kendrick unironically featured on a TSwift song? He's very capable of making crap and thinking it's good

>>71888634
Oh don't get it twisted, ironic banger or not the song is great, and will be in heavy rotation until next week.

I'm just saying there will definitely be more to the track.

Maybe I'm reaching here, but I thought he chose the most barebones, generic throw-away beat to show how much more he can do with his flow and lyricism than every other rapper, seeing as he's pretty clearly calling himself the greatest rapper alive in The Heart IV
