We cry together is a good track but not a masterpiece a bit all over the place, and the amount of times the girl says nikka, smh definitely not white audience friendly.
I feel like Kendrick has slightly become overrated over the years he’s the critics darling and in doing so has delved more to incorporating more musical aspects into rap but like shown with Kanye before him that doesn’t always translate to better sounding music, GKMC is still his best project and Section 80 not too far behind.
The pandering also makes me feel uneasy when this guy is heralded as some type of conscious mc, this is the safe liberal conscious mc, which is symbolic of black politics and freedom fighters in our new generation for that Kendrick is very much he archetype, we want from fight the power to this, black power to Black Lives Matter, PAC with real black panther links to a rapper from the west who is just as likely to perform for democratic presidents, it all feels a bit fake to me.
