Kendrick Lamar dropped the official music video for his new single, “The Heart Part 5,” on Mother’s Day. After four years of silence, fans finally got their wish for new music from the talented lyricist — and he didn’t disappoint.

The video starts off with a visibly anxious Lamar who shares with the audience that as he’s grown older and he’s come to realize that “life is perspective” which may vary from person to person.

He picks up speed as he starts to deliver an emotionally-charged critical analysis of the idea of culture. He highlights several themes that can be found in the inner city, from violence to financial instability.

He continues rapping over a sample of Marvin Gaye’s hit song “I Want You” before morphing into former professional football player OJ Simpson. He continues rapping, moving on to several other controversial Black artists like Kanye West and famed Empire actor Jussie Smollett. He finishes the verse as superstar actor Will Smith, as he recites the line “in a land where hurt people, hurt people, f**k calling it culture.”

If that wasn’t enough, he continues onto the second and third verses, morphing into late talents like NBA legend Kobe Bryant, and finally beloved rapper and activist Nipsey Hussle. The change in verses marks a change in his lyrics, which move from tragedy to triumph.

The impressive music video has prompted several conversations online. Many fans praise poignant message that Kendrick makes surrounding trauma and culture, while others applaud the carousel of powerful Black celebrities that he spotlights.

The eye-catching music video is just one of many where he tells a story using expertly crafted visuals. Here are five other visually striking Kendrick Lamar music videos to watch:

1. ELEMENT.

In his music video for “ELEMENT.,” K. Dot takes fans on a wild journey as he talks about his personal accomplishments and what he sacrificed to achieve them. The music video starts off by showing a Black hand reaching toward the sky as it rises from a large body of water. Over this imagery, a voice shouts, “Y’all know what happens on Earth, stays on Earth.”

Throughout the video, provocative images are displayed on the screen. A house burns while loved ones can do little but watch the flames engulf their possessions and memories. A father tries to teach his son how to fight although the child seems uninterested in the lesson.

2. For Free?

For Free? is an interlude to Lamar’s To Pimp a Butterfly album with imagery that draws on the relationship between America and the Black community. The video starts with a Black saxophonist playing outside the window of an antiquated, yet hauntingly beautiful home. Next to him, the American flag waves as a Black choir sings with other Black musicians and “Uncle Sam” by their side.

The video takes the audience throughout the house as a woman is seen berating Lamar for not measuring up to her financial expectations. Over the course of the song, Kung Fu Kenny fires back, drawing parallels to the unfair criticisms that America places on Black men.

Many historical visuals are shown throughout the song from statues of historical Black caricatures to a vintage Black jazz band.

3. i

The music video for the song “i” showcases much of the beauty of Black culture from the past to the present. The music video starts inside a club where Black people from seemingly different timelines come to have a good time. Children watch curiously from upstairs as the beautiful silhouettes of Black people dance about the room. A woman is seen braiding Lamar’s hair, a cultural pastime that’s still upheld today.

In this video, Lamar walks through the city, embracing self-love although the rest of the community appears to be in shambles. Throughout the video, others join him, also choosing to look inward rather than focus what’s going on around them.

4. God is Gangsta

In his emotionally-charged song, “God is Gangsta,” Kendrick Lamar stirs conversation around mental health, fame and fortune, and religion.

Set in the corner of a dimly lit room, Lamar sits at a table with a bottle of alcohol, visibly intoxicated. He raps about battling his inner demons, chanting “Loving you is complicated.”

The video cuts to a clip of Lamar being baptized, his head held underneath the water for so long that he almost drowns. This is juxtaposed against the imagery of several women attempting to seduce Lamar. He raps about the ever-present temptation of evil and his unrelenting battle to fight it.

His second verse introduces Lucy, a possible metaphor for Lucifer, God’s adversary in the Bible. As he recalls his conversation with Lucy, Lamar is in a trance-like state while several more women enter the scene to tempt him. The video ends with him walking across a bridge, an introduction to his hit song, DAMN

5. Humble

Kendrick wows fans in his hit song, “Humble,” a leading tracking debuting off of his fourth studio album. At the start of the music video, fans find K. Dot dressed head to toe in priestly garments while a bright light shines down on him from the window of what seems to be a church.

In an interview with Rolling Stone, he shares that in the song, he boasts about his accomplishments while simultaneously calling out his ego. The music video recreates Leonardo Da Vinci’s The Last Supper as Lamar and his companions assume the role of Jesus and the 12 disciples. In many scenes, fans see the star posing with a united group of Black men wearing various clothing styles that evoke different meanings.
