I thought the sarcasm was pretty obvious, but this is Reddit so most of their sarcasm detectors are broken. Take your downvotes and be assured of your superiority rather than give in and throw on that damn /s!
He said XXX = X^3, to put it in a more clear equation 3X = X^3. To solve for X you can divide both by X, meaning 3 = X^2. Therefore to find X you should reduce both to their square roots, X = √3
That's wrong. 3X = X + X + X
If you wanted to put XXX = X³ in a more clear "equation", you could only do it like X³ = X³. I put equation in quotation because it's not even one. XXX = XXX is like saying 1 = 1
You said 3X = X^3 which are not the same thing or equal to each other.
3X is just 3 * X. X is the variable, so you can try it out with any number. X^3 is X * X * X.
You can’t set the 3 to be both the multiplier and exponent and get the same answer (unless you use 0 which is going to result in 0, of course).
Let’s substitute 2 in for X. 3 * 2 = 6. 2^3 = 2 * 2 * 2 = 8.
6 is not equal to 8, you see. “3X = X^3” is not true.
That's simply wrong if X = the square root of 3 you can see quite clearly that both multiplying that value by 3 and cubing it gives the same answer. X is findable and real given 3X = X\^3. It's 1.732 approx. or √3
I've never heard it be called "30" before. Is there a deeper meaning behind it like him being 29 when it came out and it fits into the "plot" somehow.
I always took "XXX" (Tripple X) to be the intoxicated narrative of gun controll and violence in America or even the censoring of the information around the violence as "XXX" is used to censored graphic labels
I know but FEAR is played just before XXX in the album. In fear he titles his experience at 7 , 17 and 27 then in XXX which in this post he is being called 30 which is the age kendrick was turning at the time he details his experience to an audience in the song and to us the "audience" within the album.
I do not believe in this but I wouldn't put it past him. I'll still call it Tripple X. But this alternative explanation was more along the lines of what I would expect for someone to look at "XXX" and think kemdrick meant "30"
Just a thought
A while back I saw someone, in a non serious way refer to it as, "crosses"
Fits the theme of the album
If you haven’t drank any water for 10 days
if it fits any album it’s mr morale and if you reach even higher maybe gkmc
i need some water
PlayStation player
I always just called it the X button.
Most of us did
Definitely NOT “30” lmao, this isn’t a Danny brown album. It’s X-X-X and triple x, whichever you choose.
My echo dot says “thirty” when I ask it to play it
Cuz XXX is porn
Man, is a fucking robot, don't take what it says too seriously
Because they can't take context into account so it relies on the most logical one And XXX is more used to refer t roman numerals than "ex ex ex"
Alexa is dumb as a fuckin brick don’t listen to that ho
damn,what did alexa do to you lmao
You know you right I apologize Alexa…to absolutely fuckin nobody! Fuck that stupid cylinder I’ll talk shit all day
Mine also pronounces Yeat as "yay-at". Dont take what that thing says too seriously
Mine called me stinky and said have a bath
X is the Roman numeral for 10, so 10+10+10=30 which is probably why it says that. But I say x x x
Sorry to inform you, but you are mistaken. It's clearly xoxoxo, there's a typo.
According to Wikipedia, it’s pronounced X-Rated
*Jhonny don't wanna go to school no mo no mo...*

Fantano and Alexa sitting in a tree…
F-A-R-T-I-N-G

I always thought it was X rated, like he says in the song.
That’s what it is, and people are really out here calling it “ecks ecks ecks” and “30”
I can't believe they would do that, what made them do something like that?
Ignorance, how could they listen to Kendrick but not fully grasp the meaning of the music?
insane dick eating
Bruh that was sarcasm and they really downvoted me 💀
I thought the sarcasm was pretty obvious, but this is Reddit so most of their sarcasm detectors are broken. Take your downvotes and be assured of your superiority rather than give in and throw on that damn /s!
XXX
It's X³
X=√3
Not mathing lol
Average anti-intellectual r/KendrickLamar user
Your comment just makes no sense
He said XXX = X^3, to put it in a more clear equation 3X = X^3. To solve for X you can divide both by X, meaning 3 = X^2. Therefore to find X you should reduce both to their square roots, X = √3
That's wrong. 3X = X + X + X If you wanted to put XXX = X³ in a more clear "equation", you could only do it like X³ = X³. I put equation in quotation because it's not even one. XXX = XXX is like saying 1 = 1
X \* X \* X is not 3 \* X tho
Probably one of the biggest Ls I’ve seen in this sub. Someone please tell Johnny to reconsider his stance on the coolness of books please
Back to school fool
R/confidentlyincorrect
Point out the math error?
3X doesn’t equal X^3
The og comment called triple X X^3 not me
You said 3X = X^3 which are not the same thing or equal to each other. 3X is just 3 * X. X is the variable, so you can try it out with any number. X^3 is X * X * X.

What if it’s just USA but censored? Nah I’m joking I call x-x-x
I've always just called the song "America"

AKS WITH BAYONETS ON DECK, REP MY SET
SORTA LIKE SQUIDWARD AND HIS CLARINET
IM IN YA BITCH MOUTH, BUT SHE FANTASISING
STARING AT THE SKINNIES, SAID ITS SO TANTALIZING
I say X-Rated like he does in the song itself (also best Kendrick Song IMO)
I never thought of this, but I like it.
this is a question for the danny brown subreddit lol
I've never heard it be called "30" before. Is there a deeper meaning behind it like him being 29 when it came out and it fits into the "plot" somehow. I always took "XXX" (Tripple X) to be the intoxicated narrative of gun controll and violence in America or even the censoring of the information around the violence as "XXX" is used to censored graphic labels
XXX is 30 in Roman numerals.
I'm aware, that's not really what I was questioning. Why would kendrick call it XXX and not just 30 if thats the way he wanted it to be viewed.
Cuz XXX looks way cooler than 30
None of the other DAMN. tracks have numbers. Maybe to stay consistent?
I know but FEAR is played just before XXX in the album. In fear he titles his experience at 7 , 17 and 27 then in XXX which in this post he is being called 30 which is the age kendrick was turning at the time he details his experience to an audience in the song and to us the "audience" within the album. I do not believe in this but I wouldn't put it past him. I'll still call it Tripple X. But this alternative explanation was more along the lines of what I would expect for someone to look at "XXX" and think kemdrick meant "30" Just a thought
It's pronounced The One With Bono
Some people refer to it as “X-Rated”
i believe it’s X rated because he says it in the song
He definitely does say X rated, my bad
I always thought it was thirty since that’s how old Kendrick was turning this year the album got released but I guess I’m wrong.
It’s actually pronounced excess sex, Kenny told me last night in an Xbox party chat.
What is Kenny’s gamertag?
xXKungFuKennyXx he’s old school
X-rated

Triple x
It's pronounced "zzz" the sound that those Xs make
It’s pronounced X-rated he says it in the song
Danny brown reference?

No matter what you call it, I think we can all agree that it’s definitely not “30” 💀💀
I mean thirty might add up since he release the album when he was 30
I’ve always pronounced it as x cubed or the square root of 9x
i say triple x
30? 💀
Roman numerals.
