The full series is finally complete! To Pimp A Butterfly is one of the most intricately crafted, immaculate pieces of work i've ever experienced. The messages Kendrick touches on throughout the album are varied, deep, interesting and insightful. Despite the album initially appearing to be solely based on aspects revolved around the black community, there's also several other topics which get covered such as, self worth, addiction, fame, and religion. All of which I explain in this mammoth of a video, hope you enjoy!

Just an FYI: the random cut that's made at the start of for free is due to the copyright on the music video. Not much info is lost, I simply just give an introduction to the track and explain the role reversal of how women are typically the ones who are associated with being gold diggers and money focused, whereas in For Free? Kendrick looks at his own self worth, and puts a price on himself.
