Lana and Jack have writing credit but I'm not sure what that means exactly for the interlude?

Imagine Lana and Jack helped write the sermon for the pastor 

 

unlikely but still a funny thought. I am curious about that writing credit, though..

[hotshot2am 17,976]

It would be insane to make Lana responsible for what her pastor said 18 years ago in a local newspaper interview but I feel like that's exactly what will happen 

[The Grants 13,026]

from what I can recall the tracklist looks like this

1. The Grants

2. Ocean Blvd

3. Sweet

4. A&W

5. Judah collab

6. Candy Necklace

7. Jon collab

8. ??? (I’m not sure about this one)

9. Fingertips

[Get Drunk 17,538]

BOZ used to say the pastor interlude was difficult to listen to as well.. im scared

didn’t he say the f slur

nit any better though 

 

Yes you’re right! Apologies.

 

Well I obviously can’t speak for the trans community specially since I’m not trans myself but if everybody made an effort to understand where Kendrick came from with that track despite the morally complex execution, then it makes no sense not to give Lana the same treatment.

It's not making her responsible but she chooses him to be on her album, give him an interlude, put his name on the cover etc. So I think it will have some consequences.

and I know she's fully aware of that so she's just gonna be like  I knew it point proved

[Fingertips 72,117]

5. Pastor Interlude

6. Candy Necklace

10. INTERLUDE 2

11. Track 11 

12. Track 12

13. Track 13

14. Track 14

Also track 15 is the Tommy collab right?

he is credited on both track 6 and track 7  and he is not credited as.a collab on CN so that’s what led us to believe track 7 is a collab with vocals from him

yes and 10 the SYML collab I think

If Kendrick gets a pass despite saying the t-slur and heavily featuring Kodak Black on his record, I think Lana should be fine. Sadly the industry doesn’t work that way.

Yeah they do pick and choose who to get mad at. Like Kanye did get called out and poor reviews for having Marilyn Manson and DaBaby on his album.

ohh then track 10 could be the interlude which works better

[prettywhenimhigh 48,774]

inb4 the pastor is just yelling every word from the QFTC posts

It will have consequences but I can already see the consequences being disproportional to other artists who did similar things.

not sure! i'm just guessing haha

[bluechemtrails 23,423]

also interesting to know that the three tracks before the interlude are all explicit, but the pastor himself doesn't seem to swear

[hotshot2am 17,976]

Is there any background music or is he just screaming and cursing gays? 

 

Yes, I think that's what carries it. It kinda sets the unsettling eerie tone that makes pastors bullshit intriguing

But it's just something very random, you can hear Lana giggling and whispering while he's talking so she must have recorded it with her phone while being on the sermon
