reincarnated

Esta canción "reincarnated" del artista "Kendrick Lamar" se estrenó el 2024-11-22, tiene una duración de 275.74 segundos y pertenece a los géneros musicales: conscious hip hop, hip hop, rap, west coast rap. “reincarnated” kicks off the second section of GNX with a continuation of the Spanish-language poem introduced at the beginning of the album.\n\nDriven by a sample of 2Pac’s “Made N****z”, the instrumental is a respectful resurrection of the West Coast legend’s legacy, contrasting Drake’s use of AI-generated 2Pac vocals during his beef with Kendrick months earlier.\n\nIn the song, Kendrick writes about artists to whom he feels connected both artistically and personally: his past lives. The first is John Lee Hooker, a revolutionary R&B guitarist from Michigan whose breakthrough single was released in 1948. The second, a female Chitlin\' Circuit vocalist who achieved widespread fame and fortune but struggled with substance abuse, is most likely Billie Holiday.\n\nSince both these artists were in their prime around the same time, rather than explicitly suggesting that his soul inhabited each of their bodies before his own, Kendrick is likely suggesting that the black community today can inherit and build upon the artistic greatness of those who came before, while learning from their mistakes and shortcomings.
