More quotes by Kendrick Lamar
The people definitely shape the two, put stamps and classify mainstream and underground music.
Kendrick Lamar
You can't change where you from. You can't take a person out of their zone and expect them to be somebody else now that they in the record industry. It's gonna take years. Years of travelling. Years of meeting people. Years of seeing the world.
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
We're all human at the end of the day, making mistakes. But learn from them is the key.
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
I always felt like there was a certain standard of music that I had to do from the beginning, even when I didn't have the recognition that I have now.
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
I don't sugarcoat it you'd die from diabetes if these other niggas wrote it
Kendrick Lamar
Found myself screaming in a hotel room. I didn't want to self-destruct.
Kendrick Lamar

Kendrick Lamar
I'd rather not live like there isn't a God Then die and find out there really is Think about it
Kendrick Lamar
I like to let things breathe.
Kendrick Lamar
There's a lot of other artists doing things outside of that depth that I enjoy - that music that I can actually have fun to, and not be in depth and think about, then I appreciate that.
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
You really can't categorize my music, it's human music.
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 don't even have kids. But at heart, I'm a kid myself.
Kendrick Lamar
I think my vice would be outdoing myself.
Kendrick Lamar
I think my worst problem is actually living in the moment and understanding everything that's going on. I feel like I'm in my own bubble.
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.
