Kendrick says Macklemore went too far + who "i" is for & the state of HipHop
Вставка
- Опубліковано 2 лис 2014
- The Compton rapper opened up about the state of hip hop music on deeper level and explained where it needs to go. He also gave a surprising opinion on the Macklemore and those Grammy text messages but the thing that stood out most was when Kendrick discussed his new Outkast-esque record "i".

I think it's hilarious that after hearing "i" people were scared Kendrick was gonna turn pop, and then he dropped TPAB.
He dropped blacker the berry before the album... that’s when he caught the body
what about loyalty kendrick and humble and god kendrick
@@adriangunderson-smith1698 People can create both types of music because everything isn't black and white?
I didnt say they couldnt, this is an argument about whether or not he went pop tho
@@adriangunderson-smith1698 Still applies?? If someone 'goes pop' is that not implying that the majority of their music is going to be pop records? I mean of course that still means they can make 'non-pop' records but it technically still applies since Kendrick Lamar does not have to 'go pop' to make records like humble or loyalty. I just think Kendrick Lamar is rapper period, mainly because he has touched and rapped on so many different types of sounds. It honestly doesn't matter to me though.
“You better make me look amazing with this new record”
Kendrick:
*Drops the best album of the decade*
chill
@@JumbleBeeRescue It undoubtedly is, though. No denying that.
KidIraqi good kid, m.A.A.d city is better
@@classact526 I love good kid, but TPAB is #1 for me
best rap album of all time imo 😶
note how when kendrick is answering questions even if the question came from the guy on the right he will keep turning his head to make sure both people are included. Kendrick just has so much respect
i know right, he is amazing
Jay Rock also does that. They actually have really similar personalities its cray cray you can see they go way back
+Disphik LOL I was thinking the same thing.
+Josh Shuter this nigga is so damn humble... so chill
+FuqBoi9000 and that also goes back to the respect thing..they're giving him respect because he gives it too

I do what I can
The song "i" literally changed my life. I made bold decisions just because I was inspired by the song and I'm more confident because of it. Fucking love Kendrick man.
I'm doing better because of a song. You got a fucking problem with that?

Louis Pena You're definitely a nice person to talk to...
did any of you listen to the interview? bashing on this guy while Kendrick helped him which is what Kendrick set out to do. But that's alright, some people can't comprehend genius lyrics.
To Pimp A Butterfly is the greatest album of the decade
no
il tizio Name a better one
+il tizio Name a better one
B4.Da.$$, RTJ 2, GKMC, Piñata, Cancer 4 Cure, People Hear What they see, Blasphemy, Testuo & Youth, The Ecology and The City under the city. Remember we are in 2015
+il tizio I would say TPAB is the most important album in mainstream HipHop. In terms of replay ability, the albums you mention have more except for Testuo & Youth, I wasn't really feeling that. GKMC, i feel like is a much more accessible album but in terms of importance, lyrics, story telling, reality, TPAB is up there with "illmatic," The Infamous" Its very incredible album with a unique production that I've never heard of.
"To Pimp a Butterfly" is a work of art! He has changed the game!
I've played it like 20 times already it's sooo good
his range is incredible, Section 80, GKMC, and TPAB all stand out on their own for different reasons.
How did he change the game?
Aaron L.S. switched from call of duty to battlefield hardline
Aaron L.S. Wale dropped a dope album that has meaning flow to it.. Wale is friends with KDot
I think Kendrick music is worth the buy. Probably the only cd I will purchase this year. He deserves it. He is so organic and beautiful.
Never!
Michelle Jones you cant even compare them man. Dont feed the obvious troll xD
I agree with Terrence Cureton 100%. I like Macklemore. He is bringing something new to the table but even he agreed that Kendrick had the best new album this year.
esosj Mac can't even rap. The Heist album should've be named "Ryan Lewis & Musicians" cuz it carried only by pop organic production.
Under Pressure? B4.DA.$$? Cadillactica?
his voice is so soothing
Yes it is

Lewd Bandana that's a damn good pfp

There are many reasons but the main reason I love and respect Kendrick as an artist is the fact that he really doesn't care about labels or what others think he is/should be. He's just making the records he wants; no matter how it turns out critically/popularly.
+RPD1175 I don't think he minds 11 nominations either.
That's all artists should be..In the 90s hip hop was about being different and having your own identity.how many new artist today would any of you even watch a documentary or movie on..the list is short to very non existent
tru. plus just listen to his music. u have to be challenged to not at least respect the greatness of his songs
RPD1175 It was the same with em-- things like this reveals the rappers who are in it for the right reasons
lmao Kendrick sounds just as good talking as when he raps tho
I know right... its crazy....
He kind of reminds me of a younger Ice Cube in how he speaks, just all cool and laid back.

It’s not that deep bro lmfaaooooo
hes thinking before he speaks
What?🤣
Makes a lot of sense bc someone said when Kendrick did the Sidewalks verse, he was visualizing it in his mind.
I love how humble Kendrick Lamar is and how the Fame didn't get to his "head" this is how every artist should strive to be.
Leodanys Perez be humble
Leodanys Perez be humble sit down
I wonder why
It's not even humility. The dude is just real... and respectful. He referred to himself as a leader in music. He's confident because he knows who he is and he's not looking for superficial validation.
He did in the beginning of his career but then humbled himself after

What Kendrick says from 27:00 onward is too true. That's the problem with a lot of rap music today. Sure you may find it entertaining, but it's creating a culture, a way of thinking, in black communities that no one will ever hear of or see. I've already seen the influence of it on my peers from high school. How they'd see selling dope and having hoes was what made you cool, and how being in gangs was what you were supposed to do. Dropping out of school, theivery, they thought it all made them better as people. They'd try to imitate the rappers way of life as best they could, but they missed the part where the rapper is getting paid to do all of it while they're paying with their money and their lives possibly. Hearing Kendrick speak about this himself has made me gain even more respect for him than I've already had.
True
True. It's one thing to tell a story -- it's another thing to glamourize being broke, uneducated, and desperate. Rappers lie way too much nowadays. It makes me cringe when ever I hear the radio play such poop.
That's what people don't understand. of course you gonna think like that if you are not in the hood. The hood influence is what got the kids thinking and act like that. What your talking about is dealing with wannabes
MegaMkoi Now don't get me wrong, there are some individuals who were raised in the hood and who've seen what the hood does and expresses that as an obstacle that they've overcome, but if that is all they can talk about -- they shouldn't expect to be relevant and respected for too long.
Getting lift from your hood alone without skill is disrespectful to the art. And that "gangsta by association" shit is what them rap clowns do. Far too many rap clowns out, know what I mean?
Rappers talk about the things they see and experience on the streets only fools who are not from the real streets think is cool to imitate the rappers.
kendrick looks like hes gonna turn into one of those really old wise people that love golf
eRa Dekzo talking bout “the way the ball sores through the air and breaks written physics is quite a moment to believe in” 😂😂 KENDRICK REMAINS GOAT

KRiS I like how you put that lol
Kendrick comes out with a song with a super positive message and that makes him a sellout? This generation is fucked. And it's not like he hasn't made songs like this in the past. Fuck your ethnicity, heaven and hell, now or never etc...all those songs from his earlier projects had an upbeat positive vibe to it. I don't understand the hate the "I" track has been getting. I really don't.
I think it's because a large group of his so called fans nowadays are just mainstream listeners who bandwagon to what's hot at the moment. They probably never even heard of the tracks you mentioned.
"i'm just in the studio, i don't got time to look cute" boom. says it all - kdot cares more about creating dope music then creating a "look". this is Hip Hop not Hip Pop
"people think you goin pop cause of 'i'" ....little did they know that kendrick dropped one of the most critically acclaimed rap album of all time with no mainstream or trendy beats on there.
To pimp a butterfly another classic cd
ghetto lullaby for everyone they mc
This is the reason why Kendrick Lamar is going to be around for a very long time. He understands the mission. Regardless of what people say, this dude has had an impact in hip hop for a while now and its because of the music. Of course internet trolls are gonna say dumb shit but that's what they do. Kendrick Lamar is not everyone's cup of tea which is fine but you cant deny the influence.
***** ok.

This man is legit explaining his personality. Also how people are critiquing him for appearing mainstream from this song lol. It is crazy how relative this interview is I think you guys should repost these points.

This is my favorite Kendrick interview, I watch this interview almost every month and I watch it all😭🔥... There's so powerful words or message on this interviee.
Kendrick Lamar is 27yrs old and he has some wisdom. He's wise beyond his years. I can tell he's been through some real tough situations. I appreciate that through his music he opens up and speaks from the heart. Real talk with his Good Kid, M.A.A.D. city album it reminded me of Snoop and Dre's The Chronic album. When that album came out I was like what the hell am I listening to? I've never heard anything like that and it had me so hyped. That's how Kendrick's album made me feel. I really dig Kendrick. He's doing something different and that's what's up.
this comment is everything
I'm a fan for life. Kendrick is a real artist. He is in the game to say something. To change lives. He wants his music to RESONATE. He will never do trash music, top 40 shit just to cash in. He is as sincere and honest as it gets and he will be around for many years
This is my first time commenting on Hot 97 but this interview made me clap so many times thinking "yes" so many times. Great job Kendrick and you guys touched the best topics keep it up!
Got me dropping tears right now. His insight is just so inspiring and deep. I'd really love to meet this dude one day. Such a beautiful human being in every single way I'm sure.

Damn... The last minutes are probably the most important of this interview... So nice to see such a positive, inspiring person and an artist... Keep doing what you are doing, Kendrick, you are unstoppable...
Artists have a platform. We should make them accountable for the energy they release. Kendrick is socially aware of the lack of connection in modern day mainstream music. It's not all entertainment, and shouldn't be reduces to such. Propaganda is a system of influential symbols, that of which we should make sure we balance out. There is no balance. There should be balance. There must be balance.

kendrick and cole are the only ones really inspiring the people.
krit too, too many people sleep on him.
All lies people find inspiration in all types of music. Music is inspiration in it self. Cole, kendrick & even macklemore or in a position where they don't really have to compromise their music to sell records. But it's a lot of rappers that rap about the same things they do & nobody cares. A lot of rappers do trap, gangsta & party music but still do music with substance. They aren't the only ones trying to inspire people.

Shit😂😂
Half of the interview, Ebro tries to act like Uncle Ruckus, Charlemagne. Smh. Kendrick is going to have a career like Nas and Drake is going to have a career like Jay Z. I understand what Kendrick is saying, but how can black people keep supporting rapper who always raps about materialistic things or high ticket prices they can't afford? Rappers who want be on the Grammys, but don't come to the BET Awards, How many of the rappers perform at HBCUs, but you see them donating money to USC Berkley like they don't have enough money already. All l'am saying is this new generation of artists make it hard to be loyal to them cus they never support or give back to the hood once they make it.
Kendrick will have a career like Pac! When you see how much his next album sales, then you will know. He will sale more then Naz over all, because it will be more of a global connection. So Pac when it's said and done bro. You are looking at the next true legend!
James Bond jr how old are you lol
James Bond jr lmao this kid think it's about the sales smh.
The BET awards has become a joke and a coin fest, I don't blame certain black artist's for not attending.
Very unlikely. Jay-Z had classic albums by the time his 4th LP was released. Drake has none. Nas would never have made a record like "I" as well during that period in his career. They're both going to form their own paths.
love kedrick ive been a fan since 2011. im gonna keep it real i don't buy alot of music but im gonna always by kendricks albums because i know he has a message people need to hear.and i want to do what i can to help spread it.
I remember hearing “I” and it felt soulful to me and it felt like something I needed to hear. It was right on time. “I love myself!”
I haven't found a song of his yet that really hits home for me but I really like his personality based on this interview.. I'll keep trying to find something that I can relate to but much respect to him.
I not only like K-Dots music, but listening to him speak as well. His words are so inspiring, however today you don't hear rappers/artists speak in such a positive way where you know it's just realness. Definitely my favorite artist out right now and can't wait to see what creativity he has in store for us in the future!
Bro really helped me decide to stop rapping, really. I see something in him and he takes his craft life-serious. I want to see other artists make it when they have the energy to put into working at it because there's a reason for that. Good interview.
I love your music kendrick!!!! Good interview guys!!!

Black Friday😩Finna Be Dope Can't wait one more month
I love Kendricks attitude! every interview people try to get him to diss others. But he stays humble to himself and others. That's pretty dope to see nowadays. When so many rappers gotta start beefs with other rappers.
I love genuine people like this. No matter what the world might say about his craft, they don't know what's going on in the mind of Kendrick. Sampling music from the Isley Brothers etc. Is what this industry needs, not to have different flavor, but to praise legends, and for people to realize the origins of hip hop. As he said it's easy to diss someone and to talk about your wealth, but really why do you rap? Music is the rhythmic poetry of life and rappers who have that luxury should consider writing about something genuine, not generic
"how do you stay the same when everything around you is changing so fast?" "i keep genuine people around me" what a great answer by kendrick, man
Thundercat shoutout! I just love hearing this dude talk, so smart
Kendrick is about the music and it shows in his work!! Hip Hop needs substance again. How many more songs are we gonna discuss "Red Bones", cars, chains and trap shit. I am a FAN!!! #TeamKDot
28:37 Niggas aint bout to go out and buy albums. It's not even that deep though. It's not that we don't believe, it's just more so like: I can choose to pay and get the album or not pay and get the album. We're too technologically advanced as a society. There are several websites I can go on to download music for free. No one's music is so powerful that I would go out of my way to buy their shit. I don't care who you are. Jesus can come out and sell an album, I bet you I still download that shit for free.lls
if you're truly a fan of the artist you would go out and buy the album in stores or on itunes. illegally downloading it doesn't help them at all
oGsmuttz I don't know them niggas personally. The fuck?!?! If being a true fan means buying their shit, I guess I'm not a true fan of anyone then.
Marc G cause you're a heartless piece of shit
FerociousLionsOrg That could be true. But I think I'm more so a broke piece of shit who prefers to spend money wisely.
but if you truly support the artist you would buy it. i buy all of kanye's albums because thats an artist i support fully. i'll be buying this new kendrick record too

Best interview they've done in years!!!!
"There's nothing new under the sun." That is so refreshing to hear a musician admit that. Everyone is so quick to act like it's a crime to not be completely original. But it's damned near impossible. It's all been done. You're just putting your own spin on something that came before you. I love it. The more I hear and see from this dude, the more I wanna hear and see.
Universally Blessed Interview! Props to the HOT 97 Morning Show Team and
Kendrick Lamar!
So much respect and love for this great man.
This dudes honesty and mindset is beyond amazing. I love this guy and what he stands for.
I think the thing I really love about Kendrick is that he's so humble man.. He just cares about music. I'm pretty sure he doesn't smoke and drink cause he wants a clear mind when he records. Kendrick looks real focused right now. I think Kendrick Lamar understands how rare it is in mainstream hip-hop these to be as big as he is and as lyrical and conscious he is. He's using this plateau to actually have a positive impact on culture. It's pretty awesome.
Anyone else still watching this in 2017? Man much love to Kendrick Lamar, I've been listening to him since his EP his progression has been crazy.
This made me feel like I was there, He is really Genuine as a person and it shows in his Artform
I always support Kendrick, Cole, & K.R.I.T. when it comes to music and buying albums and always will, because I do believe in the music they put out and the messages they send.
TOP 5 ALL TIME:
1.) Kanye West
2.) Donda West's son
3.) Kim Kardashian's husband
4.) North West's dad
5.) Ray West's son
What a solid guy. Looking out for those struggling to make it day to day and keeping grounded. Appreciate him.
I soOooOo Love Kendricks Heart And also His Heart for People!!! Love you Kendrick!
