Analysis
Track 3 on
To Pimp A Butterfly by
Kendrick Lamar.In an
MTV interview he talks about the song saying that he and his ancestors have been called many things due to their race but the song is talking about taking that negativity and being proud of it, saying you're a king no matter what they say."I can dig rappin', but a rapper with a ghostwriter?What the fuck happened?"A couple months after this song released
Drake was exposed for having a ghostwriter so there are theories he was talking about Drake here though he may just be talking about the rap game as a whole.He talked more about ghost writing in the same
MTV interview and a
Rolling Stone Interview. In the MTV interview he says he got into the game ghostwriting so he respects the writers but he is trying to say to the people new to the game that they really need to stand behind their work so using ghost writing isn't a good thing to do. *There may be errors on this page.
