Kendrick Lamar wasn't born to be the next 2pac. He's the 1st and only Kendrick Lamar. Let artists be artists. None can or will be duplicated.

Just watched all 4 parts of this interview. Straight up, I did not get the hype on Kendrick after GKMC, and I didnt like his voice, flow, any of that. Only really heard him on collab songs. After TPAB was getting incredible reviews, again I didnt understand why. I listened to it, and it won me over. Im a huge funk/soul fan, so the beats true me in right away. But since then, his style, stories, etc won me over. Now Im listening to all of his albums, realizing I've been sleeping on a dude who has such an idea, message, and delivery in his music. So much more to it than just music. A true artist.

He's definitely an artist that demands a lot of consideration and contemplation on the listener's part, which some who aren't used to that either in their hip hop taste or in general might be turned off by, but it really pays off. Whenever I hear someone shitting on today's music I use him as a reason to be hopeful about it.

The guy interviewing Kendrick has so much love & respect for him. Watching these four interviews made me love Kendrick Lamar even more & respect him 100x more as an artist. I caught wind of the energy, Kendrick's energy as well throughout all four. I saw something even when he smiled in his eyes. He looks like he's been in deep thought & emotionally drained.

This interview was great man. I enjoy this album, and I haven't been able to go a day without listening to the whole thing, or at least a handful of songs from it. Appreciate the fact he did what he wanted with this album, and tried to do something with it that is much bigger than him. Bigger than any of us really. All praises due to the most high. Keep it up Kendrick. The world is listening more than you can even fathom.

One thing I've noticed and love about Kendrick is how you can really tell that he thinks about what he wants to say before he says it. In a world where everyone speaks so quickly just so they can get their word in, I have a lot of respect for a man who does the opposite.

I've been listening to "To Pimp A Butterfly" for about a year now and it still hasn't lost it's powerfulness. I'm still learning shit, and picking up new stuff from it. And this "Untitled Unmastered" EP he just put out, I think it adds to that "To Pimp A Butterfly" experience. It helps you understand the headspace he was in while working on the album.

He admits that hes follows 2pac steps even he says that he had a vision with 2pac i love 2pac and i dont think theres never be another like him but kendrick is one of the realest rappers today so im not saying kendrick is the next 2pac but hes the only one the speak the truth and messages through his music like 2pac did so i see 2pac roots growing in the concrete...

The thing that stood out to me the most was how incredibly thoughtful Kendrick is with everything he said. He takes time to think and everything he says is deliberate, he is just another level mentally and spiritually. Also I have never seen an interview by this guy but I thought he was fantastic, you can tell he is a truly passionate hip hop head. A quality that I value really highly is people that listen to understand, not to reply. I was blown away to find that both of them did so throughout. That was really fun to watch thanks for keepin it real!
