Songs To Inspire You: '(For Sale?) Interlude', by Kendrick Lamar
As part of our Now We're Talking special issue, we share songs from artists who have talking - sung - through their mental health issues and shared their burdens.
This electro-jazz workout deals – like much of Lamar’s 2015 classic To Pimp A Butterfly – with issues of self-doubt and guilt, before fading to a spoken word segment that the rapper revisits throughout the album: “I remember you was conflicted... Abusing my power full of resentment / Resentment that turned into a deep depression / Found myself screamin’ in my hotel room”. It was a hugely powerful moment on a record notable for its emotional rawness.
