The Kendrick Lamar EP and Overly Dedicated still are my favorite works by this dude, he truly opened my eyes when I first heard him years ago, KDot on top
I really love this song, this is what hip hop is supposed to be about, real individuals opening up their hearts and showing their pain so that we may all know that we're not alone in how we feel in this world. frankly I really cant imagine how blacks are been treated in American jails, same way I've never kick pushed but its story telling done in a way that I can place myself in their shoes. thats real hip hop I think.
Because he wasn’t ready at that time yet. The talent/gift was their but it wasn’t his time yet. No need to complain about why he doesn’t have so and so views on this particular positive(talks about something with honesty) song.
Dive into his past work make me feel special because right now he is too famous, that's not bad, I'm proud of K-Dot but maybe I feel closer when I hear these old songs. 🙏🏽
This where good times. I got some kids on my school that say they're a big Kendrick Lamar fan and then you ask them what songs they know of him and they say:" Humble... huh". At least if you know HUMBLE. then you should know DNA. but they don't even know DNA. They don't even know the name of the album DAMN. I hate them bendwagoners.
this is an "oh really" type joint. lol, jus dont see it comin 'till after ur head starts noddin feelin this fully... my soul clappin to this, mann. @crownviktv, the heart beat is hella clever, sir... thumbs up
I was droppin a duece and flippin through an old ass source magazine. A voice in the back of my head told me to youtube him. Greatest decision i ever made.
"Got it straight, got a place, found some serenity Found a job, found his Mother's grave site, found a 40 ounce Then he found God, then he bounced, then he found a new chick Two kids, wide hips, found something in her we didn't see.."
Used to be into that mainstream bullshit then I heard people talkin bout Kendrick Lamar, listened to his music and started gettin into underground and old school I love this guy. I still love my drake and YMCMB but they ain't the truth it's a shame cus ppl actually support that B.s. ..... KENDRICK LAMAR ALL DAY! :)
This whole EP is done so well, it should be on streaming services
real talk

RIP Chad Keaton ( Kendrick’s best friend’s lil brother that he talks abt in tpab) 0:39
Most of the fans who got on when GKMC dropped don't even know about this Kendrick Lamar, sad because they're missing out on alot of good music.
+Tris A. so true bro. This is when I first heard Kendrick
This my first time hearing this, however I already heard KL EP, C4, Youngest Head Nigga in Charge, etc.
How you say you never heard this song but this song on KL Ep which you mentioned you heard?
lilde12ss Lmao when I first saw that comment I wondered the same thing.
They lacking lol
That EP is a very underrated project
Very! Personally my favorite project by Kendrick Lamar.
Isaiah Conner confirmed classic
12 years later and this is still one of the best storytelling in any song, we're blessed to live in the same age as kendrick
One of my favorite Kendrick songs
This hits soo different now !
I love this song much it's the sound track to my life I listen to it over and over every single day

the fact this doesn't even have 100,000 views amazes me
Rise barely has over 100,000 3 years after this post.. smh
I’m so amazed this only is at 100,000 man smh... this a gem for the real fans I guess.
@@ISean-ut5cf true
Because he wasn’t ready at that time yet. The talent/gift was their but it wasn’t his time yet. No need to complain about why he doesn’t have so and so views on this particular positive(talks about something with honesty) song.

I love how Kendrick is standing in front of the wall that says Jesus is Lord and He loves you

This where good times. I got some kids on my school that say they're a big Kendrick Lamar fan and then you ask them what songs they know of him and they say:" Humble... huh". At least if you know HUMBLE. then you should know DNA. but they don't even know DNA. They don't even know the name of the album DAMN. I hate them bendwagoners.
His new songs are alright but his old and original music are where his best work is at
