Description
Very raw. Very open. An honest, humble, poignant statement about existing in the complex world we live in. Did we expect any less from Mr. Lamar? Kendrick prevails yet again with artistic vision and ambition, combining his ability to compose and collaborate to great effect.
“Mr. Morale & the Big Steppers” is introspective, and sees Kendrick checking himself for his own prejudices and language on Auntie Daisy and themes of family and personal life throughout. Yet the personal storytelling manages to make nuanced comment on addiction, trans rights, black trauma, and mental health. Working with Portishead’s Beth Gibbons, Summer Walker, Ghostface Killah, Thundercat, Baby Keem and many more, early signs suggest that DAMN’s follow up will continue Lamar’s triumph in consistency.
