![_DJShort's tweet photo. George Clinton speaks on Kendrick Lamar via the New York Times:
"I’ll put it like this: He, along with Motown, Sly Stone, the Beatles — that kind of institution is going to last. There are a lot of slick writers out here nowadays with lyrics and things, but he writes with soul. He’s a young kid, but when I met him, he sounded my age. He’s like a psychiatrist on record — he talks about [expletive] that most people are afraid to talk about. He’s at that point where he can move the conversation. Nobody will talk about these topics, and he talks about them so matter-of-factly that you don’t even think, You can’t say that.
Making it commercial is another thing. It’s one thing to be hard-core gangster rapping so you can say things. But when you’re talking about life in general and make it sound so hard, so cool — then watch the kids say, No, he ain’t all that, then turn around the next year and change their minds? Kids today, they want their new artist; they don’t want their older brother or sister’s artist or their mother and father’s. Kids don’t like you after a few years. When you can go past that and have the next generation after that still talking about you, you’re doing something.
That whole “To Pimp a Butterfly” album, it was like one song to me. It was like Marvin Gaye’s “What’s Going On.” And he’s starting all over each time he puts an album out — he’s like a brand-new kid."](https://pbs.twimg.com/media/HHAJRebbsAAyjC1.jpg)

Meanwhile in Waldorf Maryland
New York Knick player and NBA champion Mikal bridges was listening to Kendrick Lamar’s Mr morale & The Big Steppers on his ig live
Mikal also talked about how he was depressed in 2022 and how Kendrick’s music helped him get out of that depression.
“I was depressed and this fucking album got me through it, I will never forget it” ❤️
@ComplexMusic For those that didn't get it.

You niggas ain’t fans of the genre (hip hop) you niggas are fans of 1 artist.
Stop telling black kids with great intellect that they act white.
That is toxic
Men don’t mind doing anything for women….. it’s the entitlement that ruins everything.
@benwehrman @EnieClark17 @etheric_being I live here in Utah and I know every place he mentions, and I’ve been to them all.
If there is one thing I can say about the 13yrs I lived here in Utah, I’ve called it the holy land since I first saw it.
It’s that crazy beautiful.
If you knew Drake was trash before the beef. I fuck with you.
toxic positivity is infesting hip hop now 😂
Yea if buddy had pulled up, cuh was not apologizing
