Being Where You From Is A Strong

A Lot Of Incredible Rap Albums Over The Past Couple Of Decades Have Deserved Album Of The Year. 'to Pimp A Butterfly' Is An Extension Of Those Albums.

The More I Started Going Through My Own Things In Life, My Faith Got Put To The Test, And I Had To Believe That God Is Real In My Heart, My Lord And Savior Jesus Christ, And I Can't Run From That. I'll Always Put That In My Music Or It Just Wouldn't Be Right. People Can Take It Or Leave It, I Really Don't Care, Because It's For Me To Put It On Records. And I Will Continue To Put More Of A Spiritual Nature In My Music.

The More People I Meet, The More Cultures I Start To Embrace, The More People I Open Myself Up To - It's A Growing Process I'm Excited About. But It's Also A Challenge For Me, To Be At This Level And Still Be Able To Connect With Somebody Who's Living That Everyday Life. At First It Was Something I Struggled With, Because Everything Was Moving So Fast. I Didn't Know How To Digest It. The Best Thing I Did Was Go Back To The City Of Compton, To Touch The People Who I Grew Up With And Tell Them The Stories Of The People I Met Around The World.

[drizzy] ,it Was Dope. A Great Experience, Especially With The Topic He Was Talking About And To Be... Organic.i'm Glad That It Worked Out The Way It Did Where I Got To Tell My Story, Tell His Story At The Same Time... And Actually Have It Make Sense As Far As The Whole Concept Of The Album.

It's A Great, Great Experience To Finally Get The Reception That You Know You Rightfully Deserve.
