Mr. Morale and The Big Steppers is Kendrick Lamar's most personal project - potentially his only truly self-oriented one.

In part 1 of what will be a 3 video series, I talk in this video about the journey Kendrick starts us on in disc 1. Despite being such a poetic and impactful figure in music, Kendrick struggles with lust, gaslighting, and burnout here. The question becomes: how do we overcome it?

What do you think of this record? Let's talk about it in the comments!

Thanks so much for watching. Every subscriber/viewer means a lot to me, and I appreciate every like and comment. Let me know what you think about the video or the album and I'd love to have a discussion in the comments! Music is meant to be discussed to assimilate ideas and to grow as people.

I am a Christian and student and I made this channel when I was in high school. I started this channel because I love talking about music (specifically hip hop) and given that the genre seems to be going downhill, I want to be part of the community that preserves the expectation of great music and dissecting what makes a beautiful record. Dealing with a lack of friends to discuss these matters with, I hoped to start my own community that loves music just as I do, as well as to provide a unique perspective as a follower of Christ that also appreciates this community. I appreciate everyone who watches and I am truly happy to see anybody comment their thoughts on a project I talk about.

Put "MORTAL MAN" as your comment if you read the description!

As always, thank you very much for watching and taking time out of your day to discuss music with me, God bless. Isaiah 55:8-12
