Rigormortis is defined as the muscular stiffening of the body following death. When Kendrick released Rigamortis in 2011 that was his message to every rapper in the industry that they were dead and there was nothing that they could about it. In the song he says,
The sun is under my feet, and I come in peace to compete
I don’t run if you’d rather leap, my statistics go up in weeks
And I go visit the nearest creek, and I get busy on many MC
Really ballistic, anybody can see
Any assistance, everybody deceased
I’m persistence, recognize I be
Really too vicious, the permanent beast
And the demolition, breaking up the street
Seven years later he has the rap game in a choke hold and shows no signs of loosening his grip any time soon. Kendrick is one of my personal favorites from the millennial generation because he is one of the most complete artists in the industry period. His flow, word play, creativity, and not changing who he is for sales shows exactly why he’s at the top of the game.
