Video: Kendrick Lamar Talks Going Against The Grain & Pressure With DJ Radio Raheem

If there has been an overload of Kendrick Lamar lately here on the site, just know know two things. One, it was planned that way. Two, Kendrick is one of the dopest MC’s out right there (new or old), so can that actually be considered a bad thing? Anywho, the homie DJ Radio Raheem, who I actually went to college with, hit me up recently telling me about an interview he did with the aforementioned California MC.

This was shot last Thursday, probably right after Kendrick walked off the stage at Hampton University’s homecoming concert. K-Dot speaks about the BET cypher and why that opportunity was so important in the progression of his career. Also, he opens up about how he feels about the perceived “pressure” he has to live up with being the “West Coast’s savior” as well as going against the grain with his music.

Bonus: If you haven’t done so already, check out Karen’s video and pics from the Kendrick show she helped host last Saturday in New York.
