More quotes by Kendrick Lamar
I see conflict. But the conflict is what makes it relatable. I'm conflicted you're conflicted. I'm not perfect - nobody is. I'm just blessed to be able to express my conflict through song.
Kendrick Lamar
It's a long time coming as far as the work that I put in. Now I know that I got the stamp but what counts is what comes behind. That's what's really important. Upholding that stamp and not only keeping the energy my way but also spreading that energy out to other artists that are coming up on the West Coast.
Kendrick Lamar
Teenagers expressing this on a daily basis in the middle of the streets - you can't help but believe we are in the mind state of taking our losses and changing people's perceptions of us and our community. We are strong. Our families are tired of being hurt.

Brother Kendrick Lamar: he's not a rapper, he's a writer, he's an author. And if you read between the lines, we'll learn how to love one another. But you can't do that, I said you can't do that, without loving yourself first.

When I look at comedy, it's all self-expression. I apply that same method to my music. I came up listening to N.W.A and Snoop. Like them, it's in me to express how I feel. You might like it or you might not, but I take that stand.
Kendrick Lamar

Kendrick Lamar
God to me is love. It's the ruler of all things, whether it's with a person or with music or with your TV. I feel like it's this energy. God is energy, love is energy.
Kendrick Lamar
I'm listening to a lot of oldies.A lot of Al Green, Marvin Gaye. Luther Vandross... they were some of my icons.
Kendrick Lamar
We all, we all good people just trying to escape the negative influence that come around us and that's the story of my life, you know? Trying my best to get around the ills and I bumped my head a few times but I think, you know, music is my savior for right now, for me and my whole group.
Kendrick Lamar
When I go into the studio - it [words] has to sound the way I heard it in my head. So that's probably one of the biggest things that separates me when I'm working in the studio - just how I hear certain things.
Kendrick Lamar
Eventually you get to this point where you understand what you want to do and get across and sound like.
Kendrick Lamar
You can't have people listen to you unless you come to their world and then bring them to yours.
Kendrick Lamar
We're all human at the end of the day, making mistakes. But learn from them is the key.
Kendrick Lamar
You really can't categorize my music, it's human music.
Kendrick Lamar
The best thing is to always keep honest people around, because when you have a bunch of yes men around that know that you're making a mistake but let you go on with it, that's when it ruins your mind state as an artist.
Kendrick Lamar
If I'm gonna tell a real story, I'm gonna start with my name.
Kendrick Lamar
From what I remember, I remember always being a big fan of Kardinal Offishall. He just had that different flow and different flavor. He put himself on the record and that's the type of energy that we love.
Kendrick Lamar
We hurt people that love us, love people that hurt us

I am a sinner....who's probably gonna sin again...Lord forgive me!
