Roadmap: Prophesying – Kendrick Lamar


Posted September 22, 2022 in Arts & Culture Features

“This course has been conceived as a body scan: each week we will pay attention to a part of the body in relation to Lamar’s work and some of the characteristics that underpin hiphop such as rhyme, sampling and socio-political critique.”

Kendrick Lamar’s Pyramid Stage set at Glastonbury saw him sporting a bejewelled crown of thorns and raise the rapping game to new heights with faith and fury boiling at the surface as he finished his set repeating the lines, “They judge you, they judged Christ, godspeed for women’s rights” over and over again.

Now if you wish to explore the poetry of the Pulitzer prize-winner, there’s a five week course for you…

90 minute modules include Week 1: Kendrick and The Head, Kendrick and The Hands, Kendrick and The Heart, Kendrick and The Lungs (with special guest, Dr Dawn-Elissa Fischer), Kendrick and The Feet (with special guest, DJ Stevie G).

“This course has been conceived as a body scan: each week we will pay attention to a part of the body in relation to Lamar’s work and some of the characteristics that underpin hiphop such as rhyme, sampling and socio-political critique.”
