-------------------------------
Dichotomy is built into Kendrick Lamar’s identity. His birthday falls under the astrological sign of the Gemini (June 17, 1987). Symbolized by the twins, those born under the sign are notoriously known to carry a ‘dual’ or transmutable personality. And for Kendrick, the theme of duality has permeated into every aspect of his life and musical aesthetic.
A gifted child growing up in the poverty of Compton. School and cartoons in the mornings, house parties and shots fired outside his door in the evenings. A mother that encouraged him to dream, a father that persisted he do better. These formed an attitude that pushed Kendrick towards his meteoric rise from an unknown to the celebrated rapper-poet-prophet he’s become today -- and throughout it all, he’s been fairly vocal about his Gemini ways. The idea of two sides, contradiction and contrast, have been essential in crafting the rapper’s discography. Let’s take a closer look at how Kendrick Lamar uses duality in his music.
The Duality of Kendrick Lamar
