But it's not the stories Kendrick tells that are the problem - those stories are his life, his dreams, and his ongoing discoveries, put to verse. In two and a half years, his "short film" album has transformed the face of the mainstream hip-hop game, with its incredibly vivid true-to-life moments, its personalization, and an unbeatable west coast cadence that felt like it had been gone for the better part of a decade.

Kendrick Lamar dug himself a bit of a hole on his explosive 2012 breakthrough LP, good kid, m.A.A.d city.
"I remember you was conflicted, misusing your influence - sometimes I did the same."
