Back in 2003 Kendrick Lamar (at the time known as K-Dot) was hustling and on the come up. This K-Dot’s first mixtape he released entitled Y.H.N.I.C. back when he was 16-years-old. Check out the stream below to hear the project which has Kendrick going in over a number of popular instrumentals during that time. It’s always interesting to hear somebody’s growth and humble beginnings.
Now I don’t know about you but this takes me back to when I first started recording music with the homies and when I was in high school. I can remember how the influence of New York music at that time started showing in the styles on campus and just how popular Dipset was. It was just a big time around those days for Roc-a-Fella in general. Check out the behind the scenes footage of the whole Dipset crew practicing for their show at the Source Awards and giving a dope rehearsal for the staff and camera crew.
