"The attitude was good but the lyrics were a little nursery rhyme," Lamar says.
Lamar discussed what it takes to win in the studio and on the hardwood.
“When you in that studio and that vibe, no distractions, you have to completely zero in,” Kendrick Lamar says. “Phones off, bad energy in the studio kick them out. You have to be one hundred percent dedicated period and that’s what it takes to win in general.”
Lamar was in Houston performing for the March Madness Music Festival.
