Kendrick Lamar's legacy on record

Taylor Swift won Best Album at the recent edition of Grammy awards. He made headlines, its silhouette was common in the media for having obtained the considered most important tournament award. However, it was the Kendrick Lamar which received statuettes. Beyond quantity, the greatest triumph Compton rapper is to have left a legacy since the release of his album To Pimp a Butterfly.

They are the reviews and reviews in pop culture magazines that qualify it as one of the best albums of 2015, but the resonance that his music and lyrics were part of the population.

In Cleveland, for example, last year a group of people sang and, chorus of the song "Alright" in a protest against the police, who had previously arrested a young man.

To Pimp a Butterfly is not a demagogic message. It is the contemplative and suffered from an artist to a rarefied, adverse context, but also enjoyable record. Lamar in their lyrics manages raw images of a life placed in observation soweth, with which there has always been doubt. Suspicion has always preceded it.

The audiovisual work which has accompanied his music do not have waste. The video for "Alright" combines a series of messages which are summarized in the tedium of a situation that at one time seemed perennial for the artist.

It poses no revenge, nor is it a provocation. No political correctness, but the reverse approach and extreme situations, but also bleak. In the end, there seems to be no change.

The night of the Grammy Lamar sang chained and his musicians were imprisoned. His staging was out of the comfort zone that characterized the previous presentations. His intention was to argue, place a line to the history of art and its context, that well precious relationship still many want to avoid or trivialize.
