    Ali reference is possible, I guess. Definitely gives "butterfly" to mean more than just, I assume, the exploitation of girls. Could more broadly mean lost talent/potential/black promise.

    That said (obviously not having heard the album) I think it's a little corny. Like, a middle schooler could make that analogy to To k--- a Mockingbird. I hope there's more to it.

    With kendrick, it probably just means "to manipulate the innocent" in general. The "butterfly" is him, the women in his city, the men in his city, his race -- all of it

    I have never seen Kendrick fat & as I said he has a pretty clean lifestyle from what I can see & he wasn't talking about Pizza in Backseat freestyle.
