It’s always nice to hear that your mum is proud of you – even if you’re the best voice in modern hip-hop, i.e. Kendrick Lamar.
Lamar, who just released the widely-acclaimed album DAMN, posted a text exchange with his dear Ma on Twitter this morning. It’s quickly become accepted as one of the best things probably ever.

Now there is a woman who loves to use an emoji (and there is a son who is supremely chill about everything, even when obviously bemused at his mum’s advanced knowledge of the emoji keyboard).
Of course, Twitter rapidly lost its shit at how good this little exchange is.

Never thought I’d relate to a musical genius with thousands of fans and the world at his feet, but here we are. If you’ll excuse me, I gotta go text my mum.
