The second part of xxx.

There's also talk of the 14 stations of the cross and we all see which seat
Kendrick has taken.
This album and the imagery associated with it, definitely has layers.

Those 14 tracks on the album that comes out on April 14th
with letters from the title creating the anagram "Death 2 the leader"

I think you're reaching on this one. People like to project stuff onto people. K. Dot is a good emcee but this is like when Cole fans forced that metaphor.

I think this album is kinda weak its 4 or 5 really good songs the rest are ehh. His flow and voice are atrocious. And there is no second album this is it.

.....and how do you know?

Is that Black Hebrew Israelite teaching on Fear.

Because all the clues that are posted are reaching.

Has it been confirmed he's dropping another album on the 14th? Or are stans just doing the most right now?

The most. Remember this album was suppose to come out last week so there goes that whole theory

Honestly I don't think I'm forcing to much on this one.
Kendrick is kinda of obsessed with the idea of martyrdom, death and it's
ramifications and the idea of potential or what happens when that potential
is nipped in the bud by an early death.

I mean Jesus in relation to Hip-Hop music isn't exactly a new thing but
when you connect it to Kendrick's Pac fandom, his need to not
"Rap about Rapping" and sincere belief in not only Christianity
but the power that a recording artist might or might no wield,I
can see why certain connections can be drawn or others are obviously intentional.


*** I will say this though, I'm not sure about the double album theory.
****I definitely can see how The 14 stations of the cross can be a bunk
theory but I can also see how someone could attach that to this album.

Death 2 The Leadr - Tracklist acronym

Kendrick dies on the intro and outro of DAMN.

Red Pill, Blue Pill

Tell me somethin'
You mothafukkas can't tell me nothin'
I'd rather die than to listen to you
My DNA not for imitation
Your DNA an abomination
This how it is when you're in the Matrix
Dodgin' bullets, reapin' what you sow
And stackin' up the footage, livin' on the go
And sleepin' in a villa
Sippin' from a Grammy and walkin' in the buildin' - Kendrick Lamar (DNA)

Yeah.. It's a Double Album

 

[GoldenGlove]

"Sit Down" is probably my favorite track from him, lyrically and otherwise he demolished it. Folks on here suggesting that Kevin Gates is a mediocre rapper never gave him a real listen period.

"you got doo doo in your face"


You can't be serious with this shyt nikka.

But let's just ignore Sounwave throwing up some cryptic shyt on his Twitter.

It wasnt cryptic he said that before the album was offically out. He was referring to the leak trying to convince people it was not real

All you dudes who were hating on the U2 and Rih features put your hand up and admit you're stupid and Kendrick knows what he's doing
