Kendrick Lamar’s Debut Album

In an era where complete albums are rarely accomplished by rappers, Kendrick Lamar released a classic with “Good Kid, M.A.A.D. City.” Constructed as a concept album, Lamar’s debut is a thoughtful piece of art that shows how negative influences have a powerful effect on youth. Hopefully, the album will inspire other rappers to dedicate themselves to more creativity.
