Kendrick Lamar

Kendrick Lamar

Kendrick Lamar

Kendrick Lamar
The message I'm sending to myself - I can't change the world until I change myself first.
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
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

Kendrick Lamar
