Kendrick could never.

He might have meant of the black males growing up impoverished, the average one. It's definitely not clear and I understand why you took it the way you did.the average black male doesn't group up in an impoverished environment.
That is fake deep. Do the research, stop spouting these racist talking points about blacks. All of and the majority of use don't grow up poor with no parental guidance. Most of us aren't criminals or so poor we have to turn to criminality.
Sonat what point would Kweli be qualified to speak on that topic?Not at all. Take a psuedo-intellectual retard like Talib Kweli talking like he's some genius on Sway last week about critical race theory when he's regurtitating marxist rhetoric. Basically the typical high school/college dropout rappers gassed up because they can vomit out some "smart shyt" they heard someone say.
A rap album is also a collaborative process, music isn't created in a void.
This seems to me to be "if a rapper doesn't agree with me, he's fake deep". Or if a rapper doesnt comprehensively address everything (in a 4 minute song) he's fake dee.What Kendrick is. What beyonce is. What Janelle Monae is. What Afrika Bambaata is. It basically means a pseudo intellectual, who tries to feign being intelligent and give the "appearance" of talking about some real shyt, when in reality they ain't saying shyt profound. Kendrick is fake deep. He'll talk about BLM, and other more "mainstream" issues that circulate within the consciousness of the black zeitgeist; but he wouldn't dare call out the clintons, talk about the bullshyt that is BLM, or just call shyt for what it really is.
the main writing on the album is typically in the hands of the rapper and the rapper only.
Pseudo intelligent is a real thingyou can't be pseudo-intelligent. either you're smart or you're not
The question remains, how profound do you need to be to avoid the dreaded fake deep label?Kendrick's raps about the black experience are nothing considerably PROFOUND
So a real deep song is incapable of having a terrible beat or awful flow?man, get the fukk outta here with that bullshyt.
So basically, it's subjective to the listener and not to be used as an objective critique.
No shyt.
Entertainment is the first barrier to a good song.So a real deep song is incapable of having a terrible beat or awful flow?
How is that any different from Kendrick?Horrible examples
Both utilized consultants
This doesn't say a majority of black people are impoverished. It says the opposite.Poverty | State of Working America
This also doesn't account for unemployment which is also highest within the black community
Another copout smh
Just admit that you cannot explain those nonsensical lyrics. This is getting ridiculous
You should learn to read an entire post before respondingThis doesn't say a majority of black people are impoverished. It says the opposite.
