Synopsis
On the latest episode of 5280 Listening Club, we dissect Kendrick Lamar’s 2015 record “To Pimp a Butterfly.” From the second the album dropped, it was regarded as a classic and it hasn't aged a day since its release. TPAB is a grand and conceptual take on racism, sexism, gang culture, grappling with fame and religion. Lamar referred to this as the album he always wanted to make. The album digs deep into the pockets of African-American music by employing and sampling styles from funk, soul, disco, bling hip hop, and golden age hip hop. Lamar also establishes himself as the premier lyricist in all of music with intricate storytelling, layered meanings, and clever wordplay.
