We tried so hard to resist the assault this week of Kendrick Lamar’s new song The Blacker The Berry. But in the end, we’ve capitulated completely. Between the venom and the vernacular, Kendrick continues his domination of the darkness and the light (euphemisms, each).  But at 4:13-4:34 below, Lamar simply let’s loose.  Bound to cause some controversies.  Bound to result in some incisive, off-color commentaries such as Pulitzer Prize-winning author, Michael Chabon’s HERE.
