Planet Asia - Inspiration (Music Video)
It's hot and loud here so I'm going to take a break. I'll be back later tonight with more content.
HipHopDX: Kendrick Lamar Interview - 'Section.80 Is Just A Warm-Up'
Andres Vasquez of HipHopDX recently had the chance to sit down with Kendrick Lamar and pick his brain a bit. Here's a little preview:
Game suggested DX call on his fellow Compton native K. Dot. The young emcee goes in-depth about his highly successful, critically praised digital debut, and says his work with Dre will soon be heard.Read the full interview at HipHopDX.
“Believe it or not, Section.80 is just a warm up.”
When Kendrick Lamar speaks of his critically acclaimed project in this manner, you get a sense of sincerity in his voice. The Compton, California representative has received rave reviews from various publications, including ours. He’s also garnered support from other emcees, veterans and newcomers alike. Hip Hop legends like Snoop Dogg, Kurupt and Dr. Dre have all cosigned Lamar’s talent. So, what’s next?
Before moving forward, K. Dot understands it’s always crucial to look back and to look within. During this exclusive interview with HipHopDX at the request of guest editor Game, Kendrick spoke as to why he wants to let Section.80 settle for some time before unveiling the newer projects he has in the stash. He also spoke on how various life experiences have informed his writing and about what it’s like to run with the West Coast’s baton.
Kendrick Lamar Acknowledges Game For Supporting His Movement
HipHopDX: What was it like to work with Game on the R.E.D. Album?
Kendrick Lamar: It was crazy, man! You know, I always admired Game’s work ethic, as far as being a student of the game, like myself. So, when he finally called me to be on The R.E.D. Album, that was a blessing for me, just off the fact that somebody I admired in the game would reach out and extend their hand to do me a favor to put me on the intro, not just a track, but the intro. That says a lot because it sets the tone for what he’s talking about. I’m privileged to be side by side with a rapper like that. I felt that it was a song that was necessary. I’m from Compton, he’s from Compton. I’m the young one coming from Compton. He was basically saying, here, take this and run with it. That’s how the track felt. It was real.
