There were lots of quotable line like "back pedaling Christians settling for forgiveness" or "life completely went in reverse I guess I’m running in place trying to make to church". There’s not really one song that stood out to me because all of them were great. “The songs on the untitled unmastered were great but I can understand how they didn’t make the cut for To Pimp a Butterfly. Kendrick doesn’t talk down to his audience and that’s what makes all the difference. Sure, they’re just demos but they are of a critical importance to the rap game by TEACHING THE AUDIENCE what great consideration to their craft is as Kendrick puts the life of himself onto paper and pad and creates a voice for those without one. Untitled Unmastered distributes To Pimp A Butterfly leftovers that are still as good as what TPAB had to offer. It’s these principles that make the Untitled Unmastered album so indulge worthy, even though it’s just an album of demos. Hating to compare, but it seems Kendrick (Cornrow Kenny) is engaging in, and executing the same principles as Prince, a legend in his own right, did in his peak: Mystique, otherworldly music, and yes again, more mystique.

This mystique creates superstars, no, LEGENDS.

Though the mental, spiritual, and emotional movie of Kendrick’s mind bluntly unveils the unique yet oh so common storyline of a young man growing up in Compton, coming out by way of the salvation in music, and dealing with the agony of internal conflict in seeing his homeboys still in the trap, Kendrick still manages to keep the mystique of his personal life. Listening to any of Kendrick’s music is like having the privilege to peek into his ever working mind and sit back and watch his thought process and mindset as you would if you were at the movie theater with a box of popcorn waiting for that climax moment and indulging in every scene in the midst. Anyone can talk about that, but it takes a true artist to indulge into his own soul and bring out truth while glazing it on top of smooth funk jazz rhythms and head bobbing trap melodies. It is such a relief to hear rap music that’s not talking about the cliché pimps, guns, and buns. And as a mere audience member myself, it’s not only Kendrick’s music that is entertaining, but it’s the fact that he puts many other mainstream rappers to shame, which is worth me getting a bowl of popcorn for while I watch these rappers get roasted and have their careers dangling by a thin line.

It’s different and that’s what makes Kendrick so mainstream: The fact that his music, sound, and lyricism is not mainstream at all. We have no say on what Kendrick creates because it comes from his heart, mind, body and soul which is thankfully not a place of mainstream sounding music. In the world of Cornrow Kenny, the audience is merely just that: An audience.
