nikkas who listen and pay attention

Kendrick stood up on the Grammy stage and said “Respect Hip Hop as an art form”

Kendrick sat down for an interview with Ebro and said that the theme of his performance would be “storytelling”

Kendrick said in his interview/discussion with Timothee Chamalet that Man in The Garden was his favorite song and he didn’t care about its placement within the album because now he’s at a point in his career where he does what HE feels and doesn’t go by the expectations of others.

We’ve seen this man debut entirely new/unreleased songs/verses on nationally televised performances.

We’ve seen him go theatrical/narrative in his performance at the Grammys.


The Superbowl performance was literally everything he said it would be. He championed Hip Hop as art instead of going the greatest hits route, he had a narrative theme based on a story he wanted to tell, he performed songs like Man At The Garden that meant something to HIM. He didn’t worry about potential blowback from performing Not Like Us. He performed a verse from a song that has, to date gone unreleased.

None of this really should be all that surprising if your a Kendrick fan and pay attention.
And of that translated to a mid performance.

Maybe next time he will focus on trying to make the crowd move instead of being fake deep

I get it’s promotion for an upcoming Arena tour, but the SZA section was a bit flat

Woulda been better if instead of those 2 tracks and euphoria he showcased a few tracks from the other eras of his career, maybe just not MaaD City & Alright since he already did those at the superbowl

Money Trees, Rich Spirit & King Kunta woulda been dope
The fact that Trump was there he could had at least do "Alright" or even "HiiiPower"
He could had did alot more
