What makes me such a fan of Kendrick Lamar is the fact that he is so genuine. from his music to his upbringing to his youth to his surroundings. He's just genuine with himself and his fans. I love it. and him. Best rapper of are generation right now, writing for us and I feel it. much love.
section 80 is fucking ridiculous. look back 10 years from now and it'll be 1 of the best rap/hip-hop albums of all time. i get asked all the time who im listening to and they seem confused when i say kendrick lamar, one day that shit is gonna be as common as saying jay-z as a response.
this comment from when dot vs drake beef was going on Kendrick not just hating drake he just hate who he is become as a person as a artist This is the goat being true to him self since day one 4:50
When I look at this interview, and then look at an interview of another rapper like lil wayne, I prefer this one. He's just very articulate, and he speaks his mind.
Glad that k dot said that he’s glad people have an opportunity to pursue what they want in terms of music rather than being confined to something. I respect that very much. Love you k dot
Don't anyone ever compare Kendrick to anyone, this dude is his own self and is nothing like anyone before him, just shut the fuck up trying to label the guy and appreciate what he's saying for what it is.
I rly have to say that this is a 100% perfect interview. good questions , very fair .. a damn big artist .. that's what i call a perfect interview, dig that ?
@Gtrack246 The song playing in the beginning before the interview is Kendrick Lamar's "HiiiPower". It was the lead single off of his recently released #Section80 project and was produced by J. Cole.
I doubt it lol...I just realized that he was signed with Aftermath before he made Section.80, and if he can release that classic while signed under Dre, without being forced to change his sound, then damn I think hip hop is in good hands.
I loveeeee him!!! OMG He isnt flashy..pay attention all you fake ass wanna be rappers. Take notes on what a REAL dude is! You will NEVER be on his level! He is last of a dying breed!!! Thank you to the most High for him. He isnt perfect but he speaks of clarity! He is right about politics! Killuminati...No world order!!
that song flew way over your head. "build your own pyramids, write your own hieroglyphs" that line has nothing to do with illuminati its actually a metaphor that means do your own thing. like build your own emipre. "who said a black man in the illuminati? last time i checked that was the biggest racist party" that would mean he isnt illuminati cuz they wouldnt let him in. and at 0:11 , well you know how in those old movies they had the 54321 countdown thing like they did on here? thats the film
I don't see it, I think Kendrick is his own individual. I can compare him to pac, but then I'd be another one comparing him. I think he would want people to see him as himself.
He does have southern mannerisms. I believe it’s because his parents are from Chicago. I a lot of black people from Chicago have southern bloodlines. The southern accent amongst Chicago people is still evident til this day.
watching these early interviews is crazy, love to all the people seeing this in the future! 💖🙏🏻
9 years later and he is in the GOAT conversation.
🔥💯

11 years later and he's still genuine.
He's a beautiful man with a beautiful soul and that translates musically. A true blessing.
hes mad cool, it was a pleasure.
I wish Kendrick came outside and spoke to us…. I like hearing his thoughts ..
It's crazy to see how much he's blown up since this.
@orenji jusu right? bruh said that 6 years ago lol
itsAaronSpeaking hold on does quarantine got us all this bored ....
@@boob2307 hahahaha i guess so bro. check out my documentary on kendrick btw!!
Damn, Kendrick really became a mega star
And grown … 💪🏻

Hey its me from the future. You hit the nail on the head with this one. In fact it would be ridiculous now to put jay-z on the same level as kendrick.
holds up
yup lol spot on
Wow man you were completely right, and it honestly makes sense. He was great then and he’s great now
got a hell of an update for you playa
this comment from when dot vs drake beef was going on
Kendrick not just hating drake he just hate who he is become as a person as a artist This is the goat being true to him self since day one 4:50
This is why I love j cole and kendrick so much! Hip hop hope!
his voice is fucking sick
Kendrick is our generations Nas. Everyone needs to realize that.
Name dropping cole and being in canada hitting real different rn
He dissed Drake in The Spiteful Chant he said if he’d give him a handout he’d take his wrist and break it😭
@@WestCoastCheeseHead he said Dre not Drake lol
He shut the bet awards down. He came so far. I'm extremely proud of what he's become
When I look at this interview, and then look at an interview of another rapper like lil wayne, I prefer this one. He's just very articulate, and he speaks his mind.
Here in November ‘24. It’s amazing to see this.
it's not on me; it's in me!
i love this man
Love Kendrick, he has such and old soul!!!
"You int gunna go no where chasing for the dollar" god damn, this is why i love Kendrick,
The song that plays in the beginning is called Hiii Power
That last part is str8 facts.
Glad that k dot said that he’s glad people have an opportunity to pursue what they want in terms of music rather than being confined to something. I respect that very much. Love you k dot
Kendrick is just another word for the future.
11:50 doesn't even mention Drake because K Dot knew since back then that Drake was just doing it for the paper and not the love of it
"do it for the love first, you ain't going nowhere chasing a dollar, it's all about timing"
oh man , you dont know how im in love with your music .
Did anyone even notice the quote at the beginning? This kid is real talk.
His ears are cool. I love them, kinda like an alien. I used to think he just edited them in his videos....BUT THEY'RE REAL.
His new album is the shit!!
hes so real
Respect this guy!! TRUTH!!
Section.80 is so underrated mann
Great interview
@SincereDoper totally agree he has the best movement, style and sound since notorious in my opinion
King Kendrick
Don't anyone ever compare Kendrick to anyone, this dude is his own self and is nothing like anyone before him, just shut the fuck up trying to label the guy and appreciate what he's saying for what it is.

Bro wtf I feel stupid for not knowing j cole produced hiiipower wtf
Real clever lyricist
Loooool
I doubt it lol...I just realized that he was signed with Aftermath before he made Section.80, and if he can release that classic while signed under Dre, without being forced to change his sound, then damn I think hip hop is in good hands.
Your right
Hip hop is still in good hands
You were spot on
Kendrick is our generations Kendrick. hes not anyone else. not nas, pac, biggie, jay, dre, nobody. Hes Kenrick Lamar and you need to realize that
interesting guy, great interview for sure
yess , finally . someone that understands me . kendrick lamar is kendrick lamar aka k.dot
I loveeeee him!!! OMG He isnt flashy..pay attention all you fake ass wanna be rappers. Take notes on what a REAL dude is! You will NEVER be on his level! He is last of a dying breed!!! Thank you to the most High for him. He isnt perfect but he speaks of clarity! He is right about politics! Killuminati...No world order!!
I paused it and read it.
7:57 when I saw that Canada question I had a glitch in the matrix moment lmfaoooo
Big ups Pete! Keep grinding.
@AaronNathanMiller It was filmed just over a month ago. We've been extremely backed up with other projects unfortunately.
Nice job!
not even close. kendrick lamar is our generations kendrick lamar.
Kendrick Goated
Kendrick is the new come up, Schoolboy Q got next!
did ya'll pause and read what he said at 00:25?
who caught that dude staring at that girl's legs? lol
that song flew way over your head. "build your own pyramids, write your own hieroglyphs" that line has nothing to do with illuminati its actually a metaphor that means do your own thing. like build your own emipre.

never thought of that, but that's accurate as fuck!
where can i download section80?
@Bosox4Liife young lyrical brilliant. instead of queensbridge its compton. i hear you
I want to meet Kendrick Lamar
whats the beat at the beginning?
I want that shirt 01.15. where the fuck can I get it?
4:50 camera man got distracted
pinknelius moonagus Nas never fell off.
I don't see it, I think Kendrick is his own individual. I can compare him to pac, but then I'd be another one comparing him. I think he would want people to see him as himself.
@TheGoodieBagTV What store are they in at the beginning of the vid?
KendricK!
That instrumental was dope anyone know what it was?
DRK SKIN OR DIE beat from HiiiPower
What are you talking about?
This interview takes place in Canada & in Canada they spell it as favourite, not favorite.
Kendricks lower lip brighter than my future 😂
LFC4LIFE98 😂😂😂
King K
I'm mad I'm just now seein dis tho..:/
The cameraman started getting sleepy at 4:46
Kendrick & Tyler the creator got the same kind of ears.
nah bruh, I'm from the South (NC) and he don't sound nowhere near southern from what I'm used to hearing.
this is the truth HiiPower all day
No he's not. Kendrick is this Generations Kendrick, They're completely different and just because he can story tell well doesn't mean shit
Aura
its all about timing...
He's from Compton? He sounds southern.
No he sounds like hes from Compton 🤣
He does have southern mannerisms. I believe it’s because his parents are from Chicago. I a lot of black people from Chicago have southern bloodlines. The southern accent amongst Chicago people is still evident til this day.
4:50-5:02 that is exactly what 2 chainz is. not a rapper, but a business man. throw a dollar in his face and he'll do anything.
anybody notice he got some big ass ears
Just Google "Kendrick Lamar Section 80 zip" bro
😄😅Why he ask him bout Canada tho...... 🤷 😂OH my bad y'all there. .... 🤣😚
