That dude Kendrick Lamar

If you listen to hip hop and haven't heard about Kendrick Lamar yet, then, uhhhh, you don't fucking listen to hip hop. He's Dre's new protege and has been in some of the Detox sessions (probably ghostwriting a fair amount since Dre writes 0% of his own rhymes). Now before you go getting all stoked, remember that Dre's Aftermath proteges have historically ended up fizzling away (Stat Quo, Hittman, even Rakim's legendary ass). I think Kendrick Lamar is pretty dope, if not a tiny bit overrated, but he seems to be getting better and more creative with every verse I hear. This song is weird as fuck though, and if you haven't heard Kendrick Lamar before I'd suggest listening to ADHD or some shit first.
