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
I learned, when I look in the mirror and tell my story, that I should be myself and not peep whatever everybody is doing.

Kendrick Lamar
Hip-hop is not the problem, our reality is the problem.
Kendrick Lamar
I don't talk about these things if I haven't lived them, and I've hurt people in my life. It's something I still have to think about when I sleep at night.
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
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
The opposite of love? Vice. Temptation. The negative influences that we have. The bad energy that comes around us and makes us do certain things. To me, it's always been a war between the two.
Kendrick Lamar
The message I'm sending to myself - I can't change the world until I change myself first.
Kendrick Lamar
While you have people who are actually fronting for your needs and wants, sometimes your needs and wants may not be right for you. The people around you are just trying to keep their jobs.
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
I've got an extra-specific story about Dr. Dre. I saw him when I was 9 years old in Compton - him and Tupac. They were shooting the second 'California Love' video. My pops had seen him and ran back to the house and got me, put me on his neck, and we stood there watching Dre and Pac in a Bentley.
Kendrick Lamar
We hurt people that love us, love people that hurt us
Kendrick Lamar
Eventually you get to this point where you understand what you want to do and get across and sound like.
Kendrick Lamar
Just let me be me, That's the only way I know.
