Prior to becoming world famous Kendrick Lamar was releasing music under the alias K.Dot. His TDE partner in crime, Ab Soul, is def one my favorite new schoolers and supremely slept on. I would occasionally see K.Dot’s stuff posted on blogs – sometimes I listened and sometimes I overlooked it. Under the alias K.Dot he released some high quality yet slept on material. I heard this song many moons ago on allhiphop.com …a few years ago to be exact. Not gonna front like I followed these cats and became a die hard fan right after. But, this track became a favorite of mine and apparently Dr. Dre felt the same way in the long haul; hence, him pulling Kendrick under his wings. Early TDE material right here.
