The act of writing the music and making the music, I think it's really therapeutic.

And it's a way for me to voice my thoughts.

I live by myself.

You know what I mean?

It's not a lot of people that I...

talk to outside of like talking to my music and so like it's me rationalizing all of these things every single introspective thing that I talk about is something that I'm currently working through that space currently working through that thing and I think that's how you get like the raw emotion out of something like you have to connect to it in some type of way and I think that's like the times where I'm the most honest about whether it's like insecurity or pride or like ego or

I think people can relate to that because we all have those thoughts and feelings, you know?

Yeah, exactly.

Yeah.

I think wordplay helps narrative, you know?

I think you can also make a song though where there's not a lot of narrative and there's a lot of wordplay and it's still cool.

Right, right.

And then there's other rappers as well where there's, like, not as much wordplay, but they're talking about something that is, like, oh, I really relate to this.

And, like, you're articulating it in a way that, you know, I maybe wouldn't have been able to articulate myself or I haven't said out loud or whatever.

So there's, like, two sides of the thing.

I think having both gives you, like, a really great record.

I think Kendrick does that very well.

It's really great to have narrative.

It's really great to have pure vibes, you know?

But when you can have narrative in a song that is pure vibes, I think that's the code that a lot of people are trying to crack.
