Kendrick Lamar: Good Kid, Q.U.E.E.N City

Tianna Carter INTERN

UNC Charlotte was jam-packed with thousands of fans as rapper Kendrick Lamar took over the Halton Arena last Wednesday. The show was brought to campus by the Verge Campus Spring Tour of 2013. The word of Kendrick Lamar’s stop spread like wildfi re. This was the spring event that many 49ers and the rest of Charlotte had been waiting for. Clad in all black, the energetic and poetic rap star blazed the stage. No mat- ter where spectators were seated in the crowd, the pandemonium was felt. No one missed a pounding beat. The energy sent people out of their seats, and out of their minds. Excitement exploded through the arena as Lamar delivered his smooth yet edgy “poetic justice,” starting the crowd off with tracks such as “The Art of Peer Pressure,” “Hol’ Up,” “P&P” and “A.D.H.D.” However, in the middle of the show Lamar’s fi erce and fast fl ow was demon- strated in his famed crowd favorites, like “B****, Don’t Kill My Vibe,” “Poetic Jus- tice” and “F*****’ Problems.” His debut album, entitled, “Good Kid, m.A.A.d city,” has hit No. 1 on both the weekly U.S. Top R&B/Hip-Hop and Rap charts. Lamar has also mentioned (in ap- preciation to his adoring fans) that his album is on the verge of going platinum this year. Hands were in the air at all times, and he never failed to let the crowd know that this was more than a concert; it was a party.
