VICE Magazine's music division, noisey, just uploaded the first video to a series on Compton, this one features Kendrick Lamar. Considering the controversy this guy has caused on the OT, I thought this was a good chance to show people the real guy and maybe change some opinions. It's a about a 10-minute watch.

ETA: Uncle Snoop makes an appearance as well

I don't know if they're glorifying it, in the video a city leader tries to paint a pretty picture of Compton, and it quickly gets shot down with facts after she's done talking.

Interesting video. Meant to upvote, but hit the wrong arrow.

I'm sorry, but Kendrick has never said anything remotely close to all white people hating him or black people and if he did it was probably in the context of a story or song. I literally posted this so some people would no longer think he was some racist and that there really is a message behind what he's been trying to do.

The sad thing is my man, no matter what you say or post in here about K dot, you won't change most of these guys opinion. They saw about 9 minutes of one performance of a 4-5 year career and they've have already made their judgment and come to their conclusions whatever that may be. Thanks for trying though, need more people like you in here.

Thanks for posting. He seems like a cool dude. But if he's not bangin I don't know why the reporter had to highlight all that bompton stuff. He's doing Kendrick.

So its okay if I say all black people hate me or all asians are racists as long as I sing it over a beat?

Do you realize the asinine statement you just made? Betcha if a whitey sang any shite like that you wouldn't be on here defending him. Everyone deserves respect, no matter their color.

I love this board some times...

So many racists in here, yet when Kendrick Lamar says that white people are racists, everyone gets pissed off and their panties in a bunch bc he's telling the truth.

Idiots, I swear to god....

I completely agree with everyone deserving respect but if you aren't racist, then he isn't talking to you. However there are plenty of white guys who are. He's black, he still deals with racism despite what some people on a message board say. And that goes the other way too, a lot of idiot African Americans hate white people for being white, does that mean every single one of them hates you? No.

Hating thugs/drug dealers who do nothing but destroy the fabric of our society IS NOT RACISM.

Hating people who glorify thugs IS NOT RACISM

Calling out people for allowing a thug culture to be prevalent within their culture... IS NOT RACISM

Assuming a black rapper is a thug who hates whiteys is Stereotyping...it IS NOT RACISM

It's not ok just because it's over a beat, it's ok because he's not really meaning it if he says it... Because it's in the context of a story or song, and it part of a bigger point. Did you even read the last reply?
