My disorder has my mind at war with itself and my soul cannot express what it feels when given the opportunity. I hope to someday be able to represent my disorder through my works to break the stereotypes and stigma, which have wrecked me in other ways.

    Personally I think even the 3 Kendrick tracks were great as hit pieces, but I don’t get why people are playing Not Like Us in clubs, it’s a diss track. I don’t actually enjoy listening to them as pieces of music. Definitively laughed a lot at K’s lines etc. but is it REALLY a banger?? And compared to everything Kendrick released properly, it sounds like a quickly thrown together recording, where he prob spent time on the lyrics but it was meant to be heard to win a beef, not be in his “greatest hits”. Btw, I think DAMN is a far better record than you’re giving it credit for. just because it’s more accessible I feel like there’s this much tendency for the elitism to come out but facts are it has so few plays on streaming sites, it seems even though sooooo many people call it his best, they sure as hell don’t listen to it!

  • @pickD4prez
    @pickD4prez 13 днів тому

    Here's the thing though. Not Like Us *is* one of his greatest artistic achievements. It's an absolutely brilliant display of narrative storytelling and social engineering. I would even say a masterclass for artists on how to cultivate a strong sense of story & community around you, your art, and what it means/represents. The reason it worked so well to reach and be received by all of those casual fans is because nobody wants to be "them". It should also be mentioned that IN HIPHOP battles do matter. I know you mean the casual rap fans and are contrasting diss songs with very meaningful masterpieces but like Tupac, the ability to be both things is one of the things that sets him so far apart, allowing him to be completely true to the culture while also being captivating for the general public. Not that this should take away from your points at all but just didn't want to downplay how artistic Kendrick actually was in the battle despite the flashy appearances.

    • @creativemindsyoutube
      @creativemindsyoutube 12 днів тому

      Feels like you sum up the other side of the argument about Not Like Us really well. What you say about Hip Hop battle culture and also the reason why Not Like Us worked like it did, was basically all the reasons why I had to put a lot in here about exactly what my points were targeting - if that makes sense. Yeah, I fully respect this opinion/side of it, and thanks for dropping it here.

    • @pickD4prez
      @pickD4prez 12 днів тому

      @@creativemindsyoutube Yeah absolutely, I got exactly where you were coming from & think it's elaborated on very well. Sensationalism contrasted by the very deep artistry Kendrick is not just capable at but has made the focal point of his career. One thing I've been recently realizing myself though is that the digital gallery of social media may be the front bit, favoring the loud, fast, and flashy, but remembering that it is not the entirety of the show you put on display as an artist can dampen some of the dread that comes with interacting with it. For a simple example: I don't need to be a shallow artist to fit into the medium, I just need to curate what & how I display my work according to the venue. Meaning I don't chop the intro off the song on the album, or at the show, I just chop it off of the promotional video, no different than how the radio would've 20 years ago. Because I'm not an artist of the internet, just an artist *on* the internet.

Felt the voices/pressure of others and the algorithm/my own data creeping into a studio session and had to take a step back to explore what i really deem important in my artistry.

    "What a Wonderful World" isn't supposed to represent or reflect everyday life or our overall life experience, but a moment of wonder and maybe enlightenment -- a beautiful, fleeting feeling, but one that may be re-experienced at any time. That song has re-inspired me into that feeling now and then. It's a reminder that this planet is amazing, wonderful, and beautiful, regardless of how we're feeling at any moment, sometimes maybe even an antidote to depression.
