How The Super Bowl Explains Kendrick’s GNX
Added 2025-02-14 16:21:50 +0000 UTCAfter watching the Super Bowl performance, I think I understand GNX better - GNX was the setup, and the Super Bowl is the punchline.
NOTE: This edit is 2 mins longer than the YouTube version. Here's a link to the Damn video that I point to at the end.
I'd love to hear your thoughts on this Super Bowl performance, let me know what you think in the comments below!

2025-02-14 23:29:05 +0000 UTCI wanna send this to everyone who didn't like the performance.. nah what's the point? They're just haters and the art side of the performance wasn't for them.

2025-02-14 22:06:51 +0000 UTCInteresting analysis in the NYTs to compliment Brandon's work: (it's a gift article and is not behind a paywall; not sure how many different IPs can view, however?) https://www.nytimes.com/2025/02/14/opinion/kendrick-lamar-halftime-art.html?unlocked_article_code=1.w04.y9Dj.DrzEnDNR5viJ&smid=url-share

2025-02-14 20:13:40 +0000 UTCA little note about the controller buttons at the start. They flash in the sequence of the GTA 5 cheat code for max health and armour.

2025-02-14 20:03:41 +0000 UTCReally interesting episodeStory - respect how much you dig into the history and details BMusicologist. Very interesting conclusion. And, I've never listened to Kendrick.❤️

2025-02-14 20:00:17 +0000 UTCIncredible video.

2025-02-14 19:51:19 +0000 UTCHad to cut that part way short for YouTube - but as someone who has played the Nas song many times, when I heard man at the garden I instantly went “oh he’s doing one mic”

2025-02-14 17:29:38 +0000 UTCI don't want to be that guy. But "Meet the Grahams" dropped 20 minutes after "Family Matters". As like a confirmation (this part is just theory) what was said in 6:16 in LA, that someone was feeding Kdot some info what is happening in OvO camp.

2025-02-14 17:08:37 +0000 UTCLove this one. I NEVER peeped the similarities between Man at the Garden & One Mic. That blew my mind

2025-02-14 17:04:54 +0000 UTCAnother great analysis of Kendrick Lamar. I didn't consider TV Off being Not Like Us pt. II. But it does make sense now. But the channeling Tupac to One Mic being used, great details again!
