More quotes by Kendrick Lamar
I penetrate the hearts of good kids and criminals
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
The sky is falling, the wind is calling Stand for something, or die in the morning
Kendrick Lamar
I want you to recognize that I'm a proud monkey...

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.

Life Will Put Many Red Lights In Front Of You, But Sometimes We Must Push On The Gas And Trust God
Kendrick Lamar
I really focus on what my fans will take from it, people living their day-to-day lives. At the end of the day, the music isn't for me it's for people who are going through their struggles and want to relate to someone who feels the same way they do. I've got to go all-in, expressing myself, right there in the moment.
Kendrick Lamar
I can say is if anyone gets a chance to work with [Dr.]Dre, it's a moment you will always take with you throughout your career. And as of right now, the Compton album is the only thing to talk about.
Kendrick Lamar
We're all human at the end of the day, making mistakes. But learn from them is the key.
Kendrick Lamar
Got in the studio at sixteen, [and] that's when I felt like I wanted to make this a career. I had a passion for it.
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
There's kids out there that have so much life to live. That's a beautiful thing.
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
I am a sinner....who's probably gonna sin again...Lord forgive me!
Kendrick Lamar
Just let me be me, That's the only way I know.

You really can't categorize my music, it's human music.
