kendrick lamar plans to celebrate women on next album

‘To Pimp a Butterfly’ was addressing the problem. I’m in a space now where I’m not addressing the problem anymore,” he said in the interview with NYT’s Wyatt Mason. “We’re in a time where we exclude one major component out of this whole thing called life: God. Nobody speaks on it because it’s almost in conflict with what’s going on in the world when you talk about politics and government and the system.” He went on to say that he often sees a moment in the distant future in which he has a daughter and he has to come to terms with his child grows up and apart from him. To this end he says thoughtfully, “We love women, we enjoy their company. At one point in time I may have a little girl who grows up and tells me about her engagements with a male figure — things that most men don’t want to hear. Learning to accept it, and not run away from it, that’s how I want this album to feel.” It seems that the rapper is tackling some sizeable topics on his new project, but what else should we expect from the greatest lyricist of our era? Be sure to look out for coverage on his forthcoming album, we’re anxiously awaiting its arrival.
