Brother Kendrick Lamar: he's not a rapper, he's a writer, he's an author. And if you read between the lines, we'll learn how to love one another. But you can't do that, I said you can't do that, without loving yourself first.
Kendrick LamarI felt like, what better way for people to understand me by taking the initiative in giving my real name, my name that moms taught me so y'all actually know what's going on in my life and my music.
Kendrick LamarMy whole thing is to inspire, to better people, to better myself forever in this thing that we call rap, this thing that we call hip hop.
