Kendrick's only strength is that he's not as retarded as his counterparts in the rap industry. I would respect him a lot more if he didn't have lyrics like this:

>All my life I want money and power
>Respect my mind or die from lead shower
>I pray my dick get big as the Eiffel Tower
>So I can fuck the world for seventy two hours

What lyrics of his are deserving of a Pulitzer Prize in literature?

>> No.13059937

>>13059919
those lyrics are from the song Backseat Freestyle in which he goes back to his younger days, before he realized that life isnt for him. Listen to the whole album in order and try to use your brain to understand that he is telling a story. I dont defend this nigger but you are cherry picking in a really retarded way, and taking things out or context.

This is why Kanye West and Grimes becoming unironic neoreactionary far right spokesmen will never cease being hilarious to me. must have felt like a punch in the gut to all those college educated bourgeoisie leftist sacks of shit who write for the guardian and pitchfork. Once upon a time, leftists were known for opposing the corporate culture of consumerism and conformity. Now, they grovel before the products of the culture industry, slutpop and niggerrap and capeshit are no longer 'guilty pleasures', but paragons of moral virtue, and anyone who is even slightly cynical about pop culture just has to be a bigot white supremacist.

Man... It bums me out that a black person will never win anything without white people playing down his achievements. Not in this case specifically as I thought it was pretty retarded but in the broader sense. Every time a black person gets published, gets an award it's all labeled propaganda or pushing an agenda. It's fucking disingenuous.
I used to be pretty politically neutral but unironically fuck whitey

hey, unlike the liberal white boomers who run the pulitzer board and the publishing industry, we are at least open in our contempt for you. no one loves that ''fuck whitey'' shit more than bourgeoisie liberal whites. If you compare the attitude and culture of blacks from the 1960s or even the 1990s to blacks today you will see the race has been completely emasculated and effectively reduced to pets for wealthy white liberals.
