Gotta introduce you to one of the greatest rappers alive..
Dr. Dré & Snoop Dog already called him "the greatest talent from the West Coast".
All the things I love in life like music, fashion & sports for example need one important ingredient
to be successfully nurtured: passion! Kendrick Lamar has plenty of it!
Despite being born in Compton slums area, just like one of his friends and colleagues "The Game", Kendrick Lamar formerly known as "K-Dot" never really wanted to fit in the gangster scene.
He wants to be a storyteller, something that is dying out in our nowadays "beat-makes-themusic" instead "lyrics-make-themusic" - society.
Listening to his songs reminds you a lot of the melodic rap 2Pac used to celebrate in the 90s and indeed Kendrick Lamar declared 2Pac to be one of his major influence for his music.
He will host a concert in my hometown next Tuesday the 5th of February. I haven't bought the ticket yet, but I think I'll attend this knowing that with 30€ it's as cheap as he might never be again :) wanna join me?
XO, Dré
