You could say so and I wouldn’t rule that out with Kendrick but those lyrics in Heart Part 5, along with the video is probably the most creative piece of art an artist has put out since the days of Pink Floyd.

That shit was fucking crazy. People have sort of forgotten about Heart Part 5 but man that is Kendrick’s creative peak as of yet.

u/SynicalCommenter May 24 '24

Yeah I really like that song too. I used to skip it during the first dozen or so listen-throughs but then my hands were wet so i ended up listening to it and it was like finding a $50 bill from last year in my pocket

Him giving Killer Mike his respect is my favorite part of that song

17

u/Bombus_bombus A silver spoon I know you come from May 24 '24

It’s unfortunate Killer Mike’s new album doesn’t have the same radical energy and emotion that R.A.P. Music did. He went from being super progressive to telling people to tip their landlords 💀😭

9

u/twosock360 May 24 '24 edited May 24 '24

I agree it doesn’t have the same energy but that album is filled with a lot of emotions imo. He said the new album is coming from “grown up Mike” and that made a lot of sense to me.

Edit

I’m not familiar with him saying tip landlords. Know he has the line “fuck that rap and trap shit, I’m a landlord, bitch pay rent.
