	Description:		Rodney Carmichael, NPR's hip-hop writer, comments on what Kendrick Lamar's Pulitzer means for hip-hop and black artists generally. With DAMN. Kendrick Lamar proves he’s a profound composer and musician. His Pulitzer opens up a new world of opportunity for all sorts of musical artists. It shines a light on an area of the field that does not often get this kind of respect. Overdue. — Dave Douglas (@davedouglas) April 19, 2018 @BrianLehrer .Brilliant episode on Kendrick - thank you so much. Communication the key to his art, communication the key to move forward & unite as a country - exposing people to his words and art, oh my. Truly what public radio is and should be. Love! the extended song excerpts — Michael DeBruyn (@inskynyc) April 19, 2018 This 44 year old white woman of privilege living in Harlem says Kendrick is tied for the most important artist of our time (with Beyonce, obvs). He's a poet, artist, truth-teller, genius. Perhaps the best live performer I've ever seen ..."on my momma that's the realest shit." — Diana Leo (@DianaLeo44) April 19, 2018
