Dive into the world of Kendrick Lamar, and celebrate the artist's rise from Compton rapper to hip-hop royalty.
This book is your backstage pass to everything K-Dot - tracing Kendrick Lamar's Californian roots through his hip-hop rise, to that unforgettable 2025 Super Bowl halftime performance.
Known for his sharp lyrics and deep storytelling, and with critically acclaimed albums and a powerful stage presence, Kendrick has revolutionized modern rap music.
The Pocket Kendrick Lamar covers his diverse musical influences - from Tupac to jazz, and the albums that changed the game. Learn the stories behind his fire lyrics, as he tackles issues of race, identity and social justice. And (of course) get the low-down on his beef with Drake - a rap feud over authenticity, lyrical prowess and dominance in hip-hop.
Perfect for die-hard fans and cultural enthusiasts alike, this book is a must-have for anyone who wants to know how Kendrick became rapper royalty.
