I guess I can understand not liking his music because personal taste and everything but how can you be against his messages?
All races living in harmony.
End hatred and racism.
Less gang violence.
Death to bling rap.
Dealing with personal problems such as depression and success as an artist.
Respecting and paying tribute to his homies back in Compton, but also discussing how street violence is and never was the answer.
Painting a beautifully deep portrait of black history utilizing both layered symbolism and the straight up blatant truth.
Loving yourself is a good thing.
Kendrick Lamar is a super talented rapper, lyricist and songwriter. He uses many different rapping styles and the production of his songs is amazing. He relays a better or at least equally good message than pretty much any other musical artist that I can think of. He's the fucking shit. I'd rank his second and third records among the very best of all time.
