Kendrick Lamar Speaks On The Making Of To Pimp A Butterfly On Barack Obama Podcast

Kendrick Lamar's To Pimp a Butterfly is being explored in the upcoming season of Spotify’s The Big Hit Show podcast, complete with an exclusive interview from King Kendrick himself. Produced by Barack and Michelle Obama’s Higher Ground Productions, season two of The Big Hit Show aims to give listeners an in-depth, behind-the-scenes look at the making of the universally acclaimed album, as well as the highly decorated artist behind it. Host and The New York Times contributor Alex Pappademas speaks to several To Pimp a Butterfly collaborators, as well as a number of Kendrick’s childhood friends and grade school teachers. Of course, he also picks K. Dot’s brain about the album and its tremendous impact. The first episode of the To Pimp a Butterfly-centric season of The Big Hit Show debuts on February 16 on Spotify, with five additional episodes being released later this year. “Listeners will know from chapter to chapter they’re getting a high stakes narrative that explains how our culture has been influenced and shaped by these creations,” Pappademas said in a press release.
