I don’t know if anyone mentioned this but Kendrick and baby keem’s mother are cousins and baby keem is Kendrick’s first cousin once removed. In the song Mirror he said “watching my cousin struggle with addiction, then watchin' her firstborn make a million”. Referring to keem and his mother hope this makes sense.

2025-07-06 19:03:16 +0000 UTCAuntie Diaries has to be one of my favorite Kendrick songs. As the shock from my initial listen has worn off, I appreciate the messiness of it all more and more. Don't get me wrong, I totally understand anyone else not being a fan of the language or misgendering, I go back and forth on it myself, but as a whole I just think the song is so special and so important. I especially LOVE the way Kendrick explains his perception of transness from the perspective of masculinity. It's totally okay for his aunt to transition to being his uncle because he's embracing a kind of masculinity that most men seek to achieve. See the way Kendrick describes his uncle's material goods, his chains, his car, his sneakers, "They were always jealous he had more women, more money, and more attention". But when his cousin transitions its a whole different story. I feel most men, like myself, like Kendrick, have been taught at one point or another that embracing any sort of softness or femininity makes you lesser than, makes you a worse person. So of course, when Kendrick's cousin trades in her masculinity for femininity, it's perceived by the rest of the world as being wrong. Our misogynistic, patriarchal society can't fathom why someone would value embracing womanhood! Kendrick Lamar, a deeply Christian man occupying a space in one of the most hyper-masculine fields, making a song like this? A song where, in a sense, he really defies traditional gender and religious norms? I think that's amazing, and I hope and believe it will open a lot of men up to accepting queer and trans people, hell, maybe even making some discoveries about themselves. And the production? Oh my god it's incredible!!! I just love it, I love so much of this album and I'm glad you enjoyed it too! Your reactions have been a blast to watch, can't wait to dive into the beef!

2025-06-18 07:38:22 +0000 UTCYou should definitely now check out the dissect videos and see Cole cushnas analysis of the songs in the album. He does such a great job at articulating the concepts of the songs and I think youll find some value in checking those out. Heads up, though, they're long videos. Definitely dont expect you to do a breakdown of a breakdown, but just recommend checking it out to expand your already deep understanding of the album. Keep up the great work! I love your videos and applaud you for giving your unique take on the kendrick series

2025-06-13 17:22:45 +0000 UTCOne thing I found about this album "Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers" is this is the most vulnerable & real I’ve ever seen a rapper been since Eminem PERIOD! I mean this album is a masterpiece off top instant classic just with the song “Mother I Sober” alone makes this an instant classic.🐐🤎✨(Most might find this album too somber but to me I would’ve loved it to be even more somber I want it to be a trend in Hip Hop to show your true vulnerability and not feel like your being called/labeled “SOFT” it’s called being comfortable in your truth/story and having certainty within your past,present & future now I will say this isn’t a album you go and pick around songs you have to listen to this album straight through from top to bottom like a novel especially it being a 2 Disc Album it’s only right and it’s real Art not just songs,these are Acts and each Act tells a tale of Kendrick’s complex battle with his moral views and the steps he has to make to fully get there hence the clever title of the album “Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers” My favorite side of the album is definitely Mr. Morale even tho I vibe with Big Steppers as well my favorite tracks on this album are Savior,Mother I Sober,Count Me Out,Worldwide Steppers,Mr. Morale,Rich Spirit,United In Grief,Mirror,N95,Crown,Die Hard,Father Time,and Purple Hearts those are my favs no order simply cause this album is too great to list my favs in order cause they change but those are my favs by enjoyability but I will say on my first listen of this masterpiece Die Hard and Count Me Out was a instant fav & Mother I Sober as well,this album made me absolutely speechless I felt the song “Savior” really gave me an insight to where K Dot’s head was at during the whole BLM Movement time period etc. it’s awesome and I love how he says on the track he doesn’t care for no public speaking,shows his individuality & he said he see niggas arguing who’s blacker on that track as well it’s so much truth in that song,he also shows us a mirror of our contradictory,vulnerability,hypocrisy,duality and prejudicism in the world we live in Art is hard to digest sometimes so I don’t expect everyone to get this album right off the bat but Kendrick is giving hope by saying the reality their is only such hope left within this world and we need to open our eyes to the fact of that being the pure truth and our real hopeful leaders are either hidden or dead Kendrick is on another planet as a poet right now this why he’s in my Top 5 specifically number 3 on my list with all that being said Kendrick’s best albums are 1)good kid, m.A.A.d city 2)Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers 3)Damn 4)Section 80 5)To Pimp A Butterfly so yes this album is better than every K Dot album ever released except Good Kid Mad City and tbh Kendrick fasho in my Top 5 Number 3 to be specific cause Eminem Is Thee Greatest Rapper Of All Time Period! My List is 1)Eminem 2)Nas 3)Kendrick Lamar 4)Tupac 5)Biggie )

2025-06-06 21:32:39 +0000 UTC“Sorry I didn’t change the world my friend. I was too busy building mine again” hits me like a Mack truck every time I hear it after mother I sober.

2025-06-01 04:33:09 +0000 UTCWorldwide steppers is a dark comedy to shock and deflect fr. FIRST TIME FU WHITE BI— ZOMBIES 🫵 MAN OF GOD 🗣️ Also the meme sample of https://youtube.com/shorts/9zV6eRXx994?si=kHVaJ-zrWbfCBncY He so unserious but people don’t see it, but he’s also making fun of the concept of therapy at the beginning. fun fact he brings up baby shark bc he sampled jaws theme loll 🦈

2025-05-31 02:45:54 +0000 UTCThis album is in my top 2 from his discography, and it’s so underrated. And I love how open minded you are. I swear I remember people trying to “cancel” Kendrick on twitter because of people posting clips and lines from aunty diaries out of context🙄
