All of my songs (unless explicitly stated) are satirical pieces, and none of them are completely reflective of my life. They are all , however, related to personal experience & study.

All of these joints (unless explicitly stated) are written from the perspective of another individual, and i deliver the lyrics as if I am that person. This other individual is always (unless explicitly stated) named 1X, One Time, or 1 Time. 1X is also my name-be not confused.

2.) It’s about how the good times – we deserve them. And the bad times – we deserve them. But especially the bad times.
3.) It’s about triumph over the bad times. Confidence in the midst of confusion. Mission & purpose,

The Sean Carter foundation will effectively redirect hundreds of thousands of dollars from retail collaborations with retail giants such as Barney’s. Hov is employing his wise business eye to secure funding for a good cause.

Something to think about :

plenty of the wealthy in america ( & worldwide) have proven themselves to be racists & supremacists. plenty of the wealthy in america ( & worldwide) shop at high end retail stores such as Barneys. by locking these places of business into charitable obligations to minorities by contract (regardless in the inevitable cases of profiling due to race or social stratification), Hov is truly “sticking it to the man”.

To thoroughly erase something one must go backwards and forwards over the area needed to be erased, else you get smudges.

The children are saying her face is smudged between skin tones – much like the result of a messy erasing job. It also implies that she is treated like a mistake that nobody appreciates and could do without.

Common & Jay Electronica are arguable two of the most politically conscious rappers with major record deals. Bono is likewise a devout activist through his music and life.

The game is painting a picture here of being far beyond the two dimensional gangster stereotype.

Some may think that Kendrick contradicts himself here, as he says he’s uncoachable , but in actuality he’s saying that he is a student of the work they did but he’s teaching himself their course

It is possible to be a student of an art/craft that learns to be excellent in that arena using your own methods of study contrary to those that a coach would advise as Allen Iverson explained oh so well here

If Phil Jackson came back, still no coachin' me
I’m uncoachable, I’m unsociable
