Supersonic 49,375 Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 Kendrick Lamar has won the Pulitzer Prize for Music for his album, DAMN., becoming the first non-classical or jazz artist to receive the honor. The Pulitzer board announced the selection on Monday, calling the 2017 LP "a virtuosic song collection unified by its vernacular authenticity and rhythmic dynamism that offers affecting vignettes capturing the complexity of modern African American life." DAMN. is Lamar's fourth studio album, the latest in a series of acclaimed and sonically eclectic records. The LP, which has reached double-platinum sales status, was nominated for Album of the Year and won Best Rap Album at this year's ceremony. https://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/kendrick-lamar-wins-pulitzer-prize-for-music-w519219 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

FATCAT 55,820 Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS He deserved the Grammy too. I know GGD is a bubble, but if you haven't given DAMN a full listen, you're missing out. It's a masterpiece, and I'd place it on the same level as my favorite Gaga album. Legends.

They rack up momentum with better **** until there’s finally the right thing for them to finally win. And it isn’t like DAMN. is **** either so it’s definitely not undeserving!

Every song is perfect, the only one I don't listen to on repeat is HUMBLE, but that's because it was everywhere so it's been constantly playing somewhere for close to a year haha. Great song though.

It’s not even his best album either. Hes deserves to win three times, and they rob him that award each year. I’m a simple guy to please, if you like Melodrama, we chill.
