Kendrick Lamar - To Pimp a Butterfly - 2LP

Kendrick Lamar – To Pimp a Butterfly

Released in 2015, To Pimp a Butterfly is Kendrick Lamar’s second major-label album and one of the most ambitious and fully realised hip-hop records ever made. Where Good Kid, M.A.A.D City was a cinematic street narrative, this album is something more expansive — a sprawling meditation on Black identity, systemic oppression, self-doubt and survival, rooted in jazz, funk and spoken word.

Featuring an extraordinary cast of collaborators — George Clinton, Flying Lotus, Thundercat, Snoop Dogg, Dr. Dre, Bilal, Robert Glasper and Pete Rock among them — the album moves between the intensely personal and the swaggeringly aggressive. Alright, King Kunta, The Blacker the Berry and i are among the defining tracks of the decade. Honest, fearful and unapologetic.
