The Ascent Of The Creative Black Man
How Kendrick Lamar's Lost Tapes Explore The Mind State Of A Visionary
" Somewhere near the center of this cosmos we occupy, the creative black personality lives and maintains itself, moving through time, unlocking mysteries, producing reflections and legend.
Once, black life and the ceremonies that punctuated it; birth, rites of passage, the praising of natural forces or gods, these and other efforts all found channels of expression in many forms. African man, creator of masks that tell us to this day of joy and rage in his land, also released his spirits into dance and other motion that designed to explore all realities within the human being."
-Clayton Riley
Kendrick Lamar is a man of many masks. A boy has the right to dream, A man has the right of choice. A thief has the right to honesty, A pastor has the right of Heaven's voice. Kendrick Lamar, long considered a master storyteller, has worn the mask of each of these men, and many others on his never ending quest to weave thought into the tapestry of mainstream black artistry. The poet, as much a product of Langston Hughes, Zora Neale Hurston, and the Harlem Renaissance as he is the streets of Compton that raised and inspired him, has often cited his desire to write and perform with purpose, responsibility, and an attention to detail that plays across the mind's eye as short stories and vignettes. These stories have helped propel him to the top of Hip Hop's pantheon of new class MC's, heralded as a lyricist who wears the mask of master craftsmen. To Pimp A Butterfly was a masterpiece of funk, jazz, Spoken Word, Hip Hop, and blackness.
