Appreciate you reading man 🙏🏾. Yeah there’s something very mythological / historical about this rap beef so I decided to lean into it and show the longstanding connection between violence and entertainment.
Great article, and there were so many sources to point our different theories and thoughts . . . One thing Kendrick gonna do, if he does nothing else, is make you think. Whether its thinking up reasons to scoff or thinking up new theories.
Thanks for your work and sourcing all this. I dig the Cain an Able reference. Really has me reflecting, on violence and kinship/kingship.

Another great Kendrick essay. Thanks for sharing.♥️
Appreciate you reading as always Alex. It took some time but I had to make sure that it was worth the wait 🙏🏾
I had a feeling you were in the kitchen whipping up something good.
Still cooking 👨🏾🍳
Yesss

Thanks for reading Delise!
💯, the great thing about Kendrick is that he always leaves you something to go home with, no matter how straightforward the project is (Kamory Rose wrote a great essay about this point recently: https://open.substack.com/pub/lovekamoryy/p/are-kendrick-fans-pretentious)
Super dope essay. Loved the gladiator framing
Yeah boy! Excited to read this one!
Thanks man, hope you enjoy it 🙏🏾
Thanks 🙏🏾
The aim was to put people back in the moment but from a broader angle / perspective
