Entries in Kendrick Lamar (7)

Way Gone Wednesdays: Kendrick Lamar

Real Talk Tuesdays: Kendrick Lamar

Almost three years later and I'm still bumping this whole album. I mean, you really haven't heard a chorus like this in a long time. So original. Still fresh.

Real Talk Tuesdays: Kendrick Lamar

Real talk? Kendrick is the best there is right now. He just dropped this killer cut on us. Dig.

Way Gone Wednesdays: Danny Brown

I've talked a lotta shit about the new school - showing only respect to the likes of Kendrick and Action Bronson. I had written Danny Brown off as an anomaly who's unique look had more to do with success than his skills on the mic. Yesterday his new album, Old, went up online and I gave it an honest listen.

This some hood-ass shit right here. Way gone.

Nitty Scott and Kendrick Lamar - two of my favorite emcees to emerge in the past few years together on one hot, laid-back cut. Dig.
