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
I can be calm and reflective from time to time and other times I can have a burst of energy, that's just me.
Kendrick Lamar
I'm constantly thinking.
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

Kendrick Lamar
I penetrate the hearts of good kids and criminals
Kendrick Lamar
You can't have people listen to you unless you come to their world and then bring them to yours.

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.
