This is some MBDTF 2022 type s***.
I f*** with this heavy
Step, step, side to side
i'm not saying that playing the album backwards completely changes the meaning of the album. quite the opposite, actually. i think that the album being able to end with BLOOD. or DUCKWORTH. without altering the overall meaning is the point.
without those two songs, DAMN. is just a collection of deeply personal thoughts and feelings from kendrick. some fun moments as well which don't really tie into the album's messaging. if you eliminate the "wickedness versus weakness" idea, what do you have left?
when he performed in vegas last year, he put up little descriptions of each album before playing them. two lines stood out to me about his description of DAMN.: "damn if i do, damn if i don't" and "a song that never ends." once again, i believe that his message is that certain things in life (such as death) are inescapable - good people die every day, and so do evil people. living a good, moral life can be your downfall. as for "a song that never ends," i think that is referring to the viscous, inescapable cycle of fate. bad s*** is never going to stop happening, even to good people.
maybe i'm not going into enough detail, but i also stand by the fact that kendrick wouldn't say something if he didn't mean it. did he sell the deluxe version for some extra sales? sure, i can believe it. i don't think that changes the fact that he actually had a vision for the album being played in reverse without losing its meaning, though. the normal version is a story of wickedness, the reversed version is a story of weakness, and they're both stories about how nobody is safe from fate.
cool info about the album descriptions at the vegas show, i'll have to find that and see what the others were.
i follow you on this whole post up until the last sentence lol i never got the switch from wickedness to weakness simply by reversing the order. i just know that the songs examine that within themselves.

You live long enough to see yourself become the villain. Then the culture loves you again. Then they forget about you or turn on you. Everything you gave the people becomes a wash. Kendrick wants the hood to love him back since heās in that stage of ābecoming a villainā as they donāt relate to Pulitzer Prize winning K Dot.
