S13E9 - Dissecting 'Purple Hearts' by Kendrick Lamar

What this episode covers

Our season-long analysis of Mr. Morale & The Big Steppers continues with "Purple Hearts." As the final song of Disc 1, "Purple Hearts" represents a critical juncture in the album where Kendrick calls on God to guide him through the album's emotionally wrenching second half. Kendrick also receives guidance from Ghostface Killah, who plays a Saint-like role in the story. Shop Dissect S13 Merch. Follow Dissect on Instagram, Twitter, or TikTok.
