wouldn't be against it, if hes against it, then I wanna hear what he has to say about it. Thats what msuic is about
Kendrick Lamar - Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers (Discussion Thread)
- Thread starter FS4LFE
- Start date
You’re one of the few people I’ve seen mention this. He’s touched on it on every single project but NOBODY talks about when discussing his music
Naw. If you’ve heard one black Israelite you’ve heard them all

If he’s gonna go political hopefully it’s like Busta’s last album, that was a modern classic and really good.

He deleted his post about the album. Guess he learned he's not actually on there or something.

Lmaoooo, it was laced bro. shyt changed his entire life
Hip Hop has always been counter culture. But I don’t think Kendrick is anti-Vaccine

He's in a group with punch from tde. It's not unlikely at all honestly considering he may be signed or distributed through them with that group

Never EVER waive your price or credits. These artists/labels/producers etc are out for themselves and they’ll GLADLY take your expertise for the “look” and promptly forget about you afterwards.
Terrence Martin on “paper” has had a very successful career. He’s won Grammys, performed on national television, and toured the world based on his work with rappers. For him to come out publicly in this manner means that the bank account doesn’t match the accolades and he’s not getting the same energy from the artists he’s collaborated with for his OWN projects.
Its sad but dude should have utilized the leverage from all of the accolades and press he got from his work on To Pimp A Butterfly to raise his price and make SURE he got paid

Terrence 100% deserves to eat and it's a shame he was pushed to the side and neglected from people that sought his help and guidance. Especially after TPaB.
Thundercat takes notes but it seems like he keeps a way tighter circle and FlyLo is looking out.

He’s done and said things about TDE, his music and collaborations before that wasn’t true lol but we’ll come back to this in a few weeks

yeah you never waive anything. Collect your coins business is business
I remember when TPAB dropped and besides Kendrick, Terrence Martin got the majority of the press/credit for the album’s overall sound. He’s credited as writer and producer on 8 tracks. After all the hype for that album he should’ve been cashing ALL THE WAY OUT. NOBODY should’ve been able to get him in the studio without agreed upon compensation from the jump.
Don’t these artists have managers who are supposed to take care of this type of shyt?

Exactly, he was seemingly instrumental to that album. To not really see anything off it is fukked up and I genuinely expected better from Kendrick (if that's who he is talking about mainly).
I feel like maybe rappers came to him for certain sounds/feels and then went to producers to try to make it a lot easier for them to rap to, if that makes sense. I feel like very few rappers could genuinely work with that sound and craft something amazing from it, but a lot of nikkas will go for that sound but a lot more traditional.
Overall a fukked up situation and another shining example of why doing anything for "exposure" mainly will never work in your favor unless it's things like Jonah Hill taking a pay cut to work with scorcese BC he would still be prevalent and reap benefits, leading to wolf of walk Street
But in music, that shyt never seems to work out like that. The most you should ever do is lower rates to work with an up and coming artist you see potential in, but still get credited, be prominent and eat.
