    Listened to the whole thing (dope that they offer an audio variation)...there was def some pretension sprinkled in, but I didn’t think it was over the top. What probably bothered me more was his depressive tones across the board and his general disdain for white america. Really seems like that’s what keeps him motivated right now, which seems unhealthy longterm.

    Same with J Cole and his KOD album, it just seems like other rappers are just making digestible versions of TPAB themes. I'm happy Kung Fu Kenny inspired everyone to preach the message to people who find TPAB too dense.

    I mean....unless you haven't paid attention to his spree of interview when internet came out, he was headed this direction already. s---, the themes in Alive, are of the same sentiment.

    I think he's always been like that. h---, even in how he approaches rap hes been liked that. Lets not forget his bars saying that hes better than your favorite rapper and eat them alive. Also, Because of the Internet as an album, and release with the script, he been depressed and pretentious

    Since because of the internet, hes been going through this transition of understanding his own black identity in the world he lives in and works. In his Breakfast club interview he was alluding to a lot of stuff.

    I remember seeing Glover with Derrick Comedy on the "bro r---" video... then Community became my favorite sitcom and I admired how he parlayed his youtube BS into a real career.
