Mariah&WhitneyLamb Books aren’t the only source of knowledge. Kendrick himself said he rather talk to people instead of reading books. It’s about experience, love it or hate it, mainstream music now is super easy, it doesn’t actually require any effort and that’s why people put too little effort for the money only. That’s why the majority don’t respect them. You see people like Kendrick and you know he has a genuine passion for his craft, he obviously still does it for money, but he put effort to make a good product that will survive the challenge of time and not ear candy that will wear off in a week or so.

Imagine being in that plane and not knowing you just flew over Kendrick Lamar

[@KnowShun]

This is the interview. Enemies should study this interview because based on his current beef, he ain't exaggerating. King literally sat down and made like 4-5-6 tracks in response to disses seeming out of thin air with short notice.

this interview would be a lot better if Kendrick was barefoot too

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="730">12:10</a> that bit right here is so true. I'm actually a big jazz fan, and I always struggled to wrap my mind around rap. It was hearing Kendrick and feeling his connection with jazz and how he informs his music with jazz vocabulary that I was able to establish a connection with rap. Music is so magical at times.

[@salmanmsaeed]

Incredible how Rick Rubin with his wealth of music experience in all genres can genuinely be so interested in everything Kendrick is saying and even when Kendrick talks about being a minimalist, Rick doesn't come in telling him about how Rick has been doing that for decades and just let's him speak.

😍😍 Kendrick is so amazingly humble. So talented. My son introduced his music to me, when he was in high school. I was in my 40’s and I love his music, and love him as person.

[@stevenshaneyfelt]

in my opinion Kendrick is a great lyricist because he's great at speaking and explaining, and Rick is a great producer because he's great at listening to others and asking curious questions

[@matthewknapp1092]

No one: Cameraman: his hands are interesting

[@twomattoes7800]

Kendick was conducting the syllables with his hand, and considering he was talking about being able to spit over 100 bars off the top of his head with any topic, the close up on his hand just showed how conversation is a part of his music.
