Kendrick Lamar: “That’s probably one of the first records I recorded for this album. Immediately when I heard the beat, I just want to take people on that ride, on that journey. It’s about being a teenager from L.A. and being influenced by your peers and who you’re hanging out with.

“[I overcame peer pressure in my life because] I had a father in my life. That’s a big part of my life. I had respect for him. He wasn’t right there, he couldn’t be there all the time, and he wasn’t no perfect person. But at the same time, he had much love for me. He made sure I had a better life. He made sure I found that life through music.”

Punch: “Me and Kendrick are very similar. I come from Nickerson Garden Projects but I was never gang banging. But it was all around me, [my story is] the same as his story, a good kid in a mad city. Both of us had both of our parents. Both of us had our strong fathers in our lives, as opposed to everyone we hung out with growing up. So it’s a lot of parallels.

“I’m just five years older than him. He’s actually my little brother’s age. I see exactly what he’s talking about because I’ve been there so I know exactly where he’s trying to go. It’s rare we have creative differences because he knows I see his vision.

“If you looking at the album as a movie, that song is like the action scene—the story of him and his boys after the ‘Backseat Freestyle’ and what they’re about to do. His lyrics are so detailed they paint such a picture. The lyrics tell you every single step. I’ll let Kendrick answer [if the song is actually based on his experiences]. Just know it’s a prequel of him before coming over to Top Dawg Entertainment.”

In a recent interview with Billboard, Kendrick Lamar revealed he recorded multiple versions of his debut album,good kid, m.A.A.d city. Although the album is regarded as a classic and has sold millions since its release, Kung-Fu Kenny notes that it took him several tries to perfect the album. “New songs, new everything. I wanted to tell that story, but I had to execute it. My whole thing is about execution. The songs can be great, the hooks can be great, but if it’s not executed well, then it’s not a great album.” Kendrick notes that his debut record was redone three or four times, meaning there are potentially alternate cuts of good kid, m.A.A.d city sitting somewhere. Additionally, the “HUMBLE.” rapper stated his need for perfection also forced him to revise and rewrite DAMN. three times. No word on if we will ever hear these scrapped albums, but head over to Billboard to read more of Kendrick Lamar’s interview.
