The album is about black empowerment and may send the general message that many other rappers have sent in the past, but what makes this album different is that it is for the new generation, and it is an album that was released by a mainstream artist. This is evident when you look at the production of the album since it was handled mainly by four producers that Lamar has long been working with, and the only featured rappers were Snoop Doggy Dogg and Rapsody. This album portrays a very deep part of Kendrick Lamar that we haven’t seen as much of or at least not to this extent. Cover of Kendrick Lamar’s Sophomore Album: “To Pimp A Butterfly” Although, I may be comparing two completely different works of art there since To Pimp A Butterfly is a prominently funk and jazz style album with the most emphasis on the lyrics and the use of multiple rhetorical devices, while Section.80 is much more modern and doesn’t incorporate jazz as much. I have to say, I haven’t been impressed by the collective presence of one of Lamar’s albums since his first studio album, Section.80. It was eventually taken off of iTunes, but it is still on Spotify, and IT IS AMAZING – at least in terms of lyrics and message. So Kendrick Lamar dropped his album a week early on iTunes and Spotify, whether or not it was intentional.
