Kendrick Lamar has been m.i.a for a while. He sat down with Complex to talk about what he’s been up to, his sophomore and more…
On the pressure of the sophomore slump and following up GKMC: “If I keep focusing on, ‘I need to make something better than good kid,’ it’s going to be just that,” says Kendrick. “That’s not challenging yourself. I don’t want to become that person reflecting on what has been done. What I’m doing now is the question. I’m only as good as my last word, my last hook, my last bridge.”
On overcoming self-doubt and the advice Pharrell gave him: “I was on the tour bus going back and forth on the text with Pharrell,” says Kendrick. “I asked him, ‘You think they gon’ get it?’ And he told me, ‘Don’t ever doubt yourself again. Always be aware but don’t ever mistake your first mind, your input of where your heart is at.’”
