    "When I was younger I was caught into trying to make a radio song," Kendrick said. "[I was] chasing something that was only for the moment, you're not chasing longevity so the more and more I was focusing on artists that embody something bigger... I actually started developing myself to a whole another level than I could possibly imagine."

    Kendrick Lamar also recalled the moment he knew he wanted to be a rapper.

    "First time I heard my voice played back [it was like] I got to be doing this," he said. "This is like crack, it's like crack."

    "i" is the definition of a radio single

    Not really. theres a difference between a pop song and a song that appeals to the pop audiences.


    "i" is 100% Soul & funk influenced. Eminem's hip hop songs are pop influenced

    Clever Koolo I see what you doing :lebron:

    I f---ing hated 'I' at the start. That voice he has really put me off but it grew really quickly on me.

    yeah now I think "i" is f---ing genius, at first I was "wtf" but when you analyze the track that s--- is #black excellence

    It's a piece of electronically sequenced neo-funk & soul elements with rapping on top of it.

    you heard section 80? Kendrick said his new album will be raw like s80... he said the album is a return to the roots of black music and it will be soul, funky and jazzy.


    Confirmed features:
    Ron Isley from the Isley Brothers
    George Clinton
    Pete Rock

    Possible Features:
    Prince (they worked on a lot of tracks)
    Slick Rick

    I'm quite curious how 'mainstream' his next album will be. No one hates Kendrick. White people like him. Black people like him. He's a combination between Wayne and Eminem. Kendrick is essential the biggest rapper in music right now, and Aftermath likes money.

    Hoping he still pushes the genre. Trust in K Dot.

    he only got 2 albums, the others are mixtapes and you can tell that he was still trying to find himself on these projects.

    But most people consider section 80 to be as good as good kid maad city (its very different though because s80 is very jazzy)

    Overly Dedicated and Kendrick Lamar EP are dope, look for collections of unreleased/random songs too

    edit: other than S80 of course, 2nd best project ez
