When I first heard a Kendrick Lamar song, his voice irritated me a lot.
But that has abated as I strive to decipher his lyrics.
In "Swimming Pools (Drank)" he delivers a perceptive exegesis on what motivates peoples' all too often over-shooting on drinking.
Ironically, this song seems to be in mild rotation at the bar and club circuit in D.C. already, so I'm guessing his national profile is rising.
"Some people like the way it feels
Some people wanna kill their sorrows
Some people wanna fit in with the popular
That was my problem"
As for me, I haven't been drunk in years.
