Analytic Dreamz: Notorious Mass Effect - "KENDRICK LAMAR - BODIES"
Episode Date: February 14, 2025Linktree: https://linktr.ee/AnalyticIn this segment of Notorious Mass Effect, Analytic Dreamz dives into Kendrick Lamar's unreleased track "Bodies". Born in Compton, California, Lamar is c...elebrated for his profound lyricism and social commentary across albums like "good kid, m.A.A.d city" and the Pulitzer-winning "DAMN.". "Bodies" was self-released on November 22, 2024, just before the "GNX" album drop, sparking immediate interest. Although not part of "GNX", its teaser during Lamar's Super Bowl LIX halftime show on February 9, 2025, catapulted it into the limelight. The track has since seen a surge in informal streaming and fan discussions across platforms like X and Reddit, with snippets and full versions unofficially shared on YouTube and SoundCloud. This digital presence has amplified its cultural impact, fueling speculation about its potential inclusion in a deluxe edition of "GNX". Lamar's performance has not only heightened anticipation for his music but also reignited discussions about his narrative and ongoing rivalry with Drake, keeping "Bodies" central in music conversations. While there are no official sales figures, the fan demand and social media engagement suggest "Bodies" could significantly influence future projects if formally released.Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Once again, we are getting into the amazing, the legendary white tank top, I mean, size seven, I mean, my fault.
Kendrick, yeah, that's what we're getting into.
So Kendrick Lamar Duckworth, he currently has a track circulating that is not available on any DSPs.
Now, why is that the case?
This particular track that I'm referring to is titled Bodies.
Now, of course, this was a snippet before the GNX album release, but of course,
course it gained more anticipation when not only is this an unreleased snippet but he performed it
and not only performed it it was the opening track of his Super Bowl halftown performance now of
course analytic underscore dreams on instagram to see what i've been posting on there but as far as
my kendrick posts specifically on instagram and tictok and even youtube i ain't going to lie kentric and
k bots have made this tax season wonderful and that's why i'm gonna leave it at
Isn't it ironic that Uncle Sam was in his halftime performance and the whole time I was working with him against Uncle Sam?
But you know what I mean?
Hey, now decode that double triple entendre.
So anyways, with that being said, getting back into Kendrick, all serious, well, all jokes to the side.
I can't wait for bodies to come out as a full track.
And I do believe when it comes to Kendrick, he's the best rapper we've ever heard dead or alive.
as far as commercial appeal
and as far as lyrical ability
he is one of one
he is the cream of the crop
the last time
we've seen a run like this as far as
the streets
the commercial
and everything about
you being positive as far as
perception I think was 50 cent
and even more than 50 cent
but you know if just to compare somebody
in the year as far as just one year
of just runs I will compare it to
50 sin and maybe Drake when he was putting out scorpion because he had a god's plan going into scorpion
but obviously when it comes to gramees kendrick stands alone because he just opened his knowledge for
let me show all right so when kendrick raps i think is top tier but gramees super bowl performance
already had a monumental hit as far as not like us being maybe one of the most popular and may end up
going down as one of the most popular tracks in the past five years.
Because of course, a bar song in parentheses, tipsy by Shibuzi, technically,
technically that was still on the same level of popularity as not like us.
But when it comes to hip hop, it's already shaping up to be one of the more pivotal
and impactful songs of all time.
And this came after everybody already gave him the boogeyman nickname, right?
This was before he destroyed Jermaine, before he destroyed Aubrey.
he came out and was already given the nickname boogeyman
because of his accomplishments before him, right?
So now, following this last year,
him completely mutilating both of the top,
well, the seemingly top two rappers and the big three.
And now he has Grammys to go along with that
and he has a Super Bowl performance to go along with that,
adding on the fact that he's going on the stadium tour,
with siza one could understand if they make the argument that kentric lamar is the greatest rapper
of all time so with that being said as far as bodies specifically obviously you can find it on
youtube sound cloud if you want to listen to the snippet i don't know if the full song is actually out i try
to look up the full song i couldn't find it but if you know there's always always underground
type of music platforms that somehow end up getting the full track right like i never cover
it because you know of course I don't want to just discredit Kendrick and his
performance but I never covered it because what I'm talking about is when his set
list was leaked before he performed I knew about that did not want to cover it
because of that being his moment and of course the set list could have been fake
so I didn't want to cover it up at all it ended up being the the set list was
100% factual and I'm not gonna lie I think that's like a criminal offense like
when it comes to leaking somebody's entire Super Bowl halftime performance before they perform,
somebody not think it's a big deal.
But as far as on a security level, I think there's a lot of ramifications if the person
who leaked that ever gets found guilty.
I'm just going to leave it like that.
So that's all I wanted to talk about.
Just wanted to highlight Kendrick's unreleased bodies track.
I do believe that's going to be a very pivotal track on whatever project.
It was rumors for a deluxe to come.
out I want to be surprised and you can clip this I mean I guess since this podcast you can't clip
I'm talking like I'm on stream by the way you should definitely follow my stream a link tree
and bio but that being said I wouldn't be surprised if Kendrick Lamar ends up dropping a deluxe
either this week when Drake is and party next door is dropping or the week after to basically
showcase how big he is and how big he's gotten as far as being the number one hip-hop rapper
as far as popularity.
So with that being said, click my link, sure you're in my bio,
let me know in one of my social medias.
What do you think about Kendrick Lamar's unreleased track bodies?
What do you think about him performing it at a Super Bowl halftime performance?
And what are you as a Kendrick fan looking forward to as far as Kendrick's next offering
when it comes to the music?
