Legend Status: Thirty Millions Later My Future Favors

Artist: Kendrick Lamar
Track Name: The Heart Part 4
AH Track Rating:

The Legend Status of Kendrick should not be in question.

Yellin’, “One, two, three, four, five
I am the greatest rapper alive!”
So damn great, motherfucker, I’ve died
What you hearin’ now is a paranormal vibe
…..
The whole world gone mad
Bodies is addin’ up, market’s about to crash
Niggas is fake rich, bitches is fake bad
Blacks that act white, whites that do the dab
Donald Trump is a chump
Know how we feel, punk? Tell ’em that God comin’
And Russia need a replay button, y’all up to somethin’
Electorial votes look like memorial votes
But America’s truth ain’t ignorin’ the votes
It’s blasphemy, how many gon’ blast for me?
I prophesized on my last song, you laughed at me
Oh, when the shit get brackin’, don’t you ask for me
How many leaders gon’ tell you the truth after me?

Thrity Millions Later, My future Favors the Legendary Status of Hip Hop Rhyme Savior –

Going back to The Heart Part 1, released in 2010, Kendrick Lamar has been holding hip hop down. He’s been representing the West Coast beautifully. For those who are not from the West Coast hip hop scene, you may not understand that off top. Groups from the 90’s like, Freestyle Fellowship with creative flows, over jazz beats is so L.A. Taking lyrical communication seriously is how the west coast has held down hip hop over all these years.  That’s what legend status is all about.

But, let’s talk about The Heart Part 4, the latest installment of tracks that is beyond relevant and timely.

Too many outlets are looking for ‘rap beef‘ in this song though. As usual, the wrong outlets are going to have their say. We’re going to focus instead, on the messages conveyed to us, by King Kendrick. Especially as he gets into the recent Corruption in Los Angeles Police Correctional Facilities.  “Lee Baca on trial, tryna portray a boxer; Beatin’ up on my niggas while the CO’s watch him“. Police are dirty out here in L.A. -and all over the nation.

There are rumors of Collusion at the highest levels of government. Several reporting that Russia has our President in their pocket. While floating right into the reality that in spite of all the black people who have been telling us about the real criminals in the world today, we keep laughing at prophets. (Do we not?)

5 Fists would have been appropriate here; but this track burns down all the bullshit in the industry – including the bullshit coverage of this masterful addition to “The Heart Collection”.

5 Lit Flames – turn on the A/C so you can cool off after you listen to this one.

In The Heart Part 4, Kendrick confirms his Legend Status. We Agree.

Someone went through the trouble of combining all 4 parts. You can listen to that below.
