To Pimp A Butterfly
by Kendrick Lamar
Nostalgic messages during a difficult transition into complete adulthood in a country that was becoming more polarized. I felt very lost and felt as though my life had become very minuscule. K-dot unknowingly uplifted me. This album was played from beginning to end daily for well over a year. And it has now come back to me at a similar point in my life, a decade later. We gon' be alright.
