The Influence Of Kendrick Lamar on 16th U.S President Abraham Lincoln, A Thread

On April 11th, 1861, Kendrick Lamar met with Abraham Lincoln to give him the first listen of 'To Pimp A Butterfly'.

What a shot by @ErinSchaff of the @NYTimes. Abraham Lincoln looks over National Guard troops sleeping this morning inside the Capitol that now needs their protection from American citizens.
https://t.co/kgUoYluQnsIn Abraham Lincoln's famous Gettysburg Address, the first words were said to be "I remember you was conflicted
Misusing your influence
Sometimes I did the same
Abusing my power, full of resentment".

Speaker Pelosi quotes Abraham Lincoln:
"We cannot escape history. We... will be remembered in spite of ourselves."
On the same day, here are Kendrick and Abraham during the listen. It was said that Kendrick Lamar and Abraham Lincoln maintained eye contact throughout the whole listen.

Soon after that speech, Abraham Lincoln was assassinated by an ally of treasonous white supremacists.
His successor, Andrew Johnson, was then impeached by Republicans.

Steve Scalise, quoting Abraham Lincoln to defend a group of people who waved the Confederate Flag in the Capitol.
#ImpeachmentDay
Steve Scalise is a lying Trump apologist and enabler. He just referenced Abraham Lincoln on the House Floor. Lets not forget that he once compared himself to KKK Grand Wizard David Duke. He should resign today. #AmericaOrTrump
Hearing Steve Scalise cite the "malice toward none" speech by Abraham Lincoln, who was murdered by a white supremacist soon after giving that speech, is just a little too rich.
https://t.co/v5m5bNbJeWRepublicans like Steve Scalise love to quote Abraham Lincoln to appear patriotic. Abraham Lincoln freed the slaves. Republicans suppress black voters, teargas peaceful BLM protesters, and kiss the ring of a neo-nazi enabling treasonous president. #AmericaOrTrump #ImpeachmentDay
Abraham Lincoln wins the day for most quoted. Do we think that when we’re obsessively quoting the guy who ended the civil war, we may be at a critical crossroads?
Love how House members keep bringing up Abraham Lincoln like he wasn't president during the CIVIL WAR.
honestly abraham lincoln has been quoted so much on the house floor that I wouldn’t be shocked if his ghost waltzed through the front door and asked everyone to shut the fuck up and stop summoning him
These debates hella funny, everyone on the House Floor getting their Ben Franklin and Abraham Lincoln quotes off 😂
@GG_RMC @RMCinfo @RMCStory Quand on réduit les hommes au désespoir il faut comprendre qu'il réagissent . "C'est en gardant le silence, alors qu'ils devaient protester, que les hommes deviennent des lâches...". Abraham Lincoln (1809-1865) Président des Etats-Unis 1860
One of the benefits of going full Beethoven Was An Alien Spy in my RPG is that I don’t have to deal with this.
I have Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter as a historical fact, klanpires, and H.H. Holmes as part of the cult of the Outer Gods running around present-day Chicago.
