A few months back my son (17) said “mom, you need to listen to this song.” He played me Mother I Sober. I listened and then very teary eyed thanked him for sharing it with me. He said, “I really admire Kendrick for the stuff he writes about and stands for and I know you would too”

It’s not often my teenage son pulls me in for connection and I’m always grateful when he does. I am so thankful Kendrick is blasting his messages all while sparkling under the light and power of sobriety ✨✨

Yes! I love this so much. And same, I'm grateful for a role model who abstains as a counter to what our teens normally see. Thanks for reading and sharing.

Thanks for this. I had no idea about any of this (who Kendrick Lamar is, etc.) I love bridging mainstream entertainment with carrying a message that helps people.
